Yea, first year of highschool I auditioned for killer queen, and a bunch of older girls said ‘wow... how bold of you!’ Some were genuinely supportive... other weren’t. I got a call-back for the role but it was ultimately scrapped because the school apparently couldn’t afford the production. (I’m now in year ten (two years left of school) and they haven’t done a production since 🙃) it’s sad
@@orchidsarepretty1422 no need to be a gatekeeper about it. It's not important to know the context. Is it frustrating? Hell yes. But gatekeeping doesn't make you better than them.
There was this one little girl who was about 8 and had a 30 second quick change into a new dress and a wig. I felt so bad for her because she struggled so much with it and the directors had to cut her from one of the dances to give her more time ON OPENING NIGHT. We ran through that part and just saw that there was no way for her to do it and I felt so bad that she learned the dance and didn’t get to do it, but she was an awesome singer so it was so worth it.
See that dramatic quick change you have to do it fast bc u need time to spare. In Peter Pan I was a brave girl and smee and they legit have 10 seconds in between scenes and lots of people were a pirate and a brave girl soooooo
Funny story: I played Penny in Hairspray Jr. when I was 8, and I needed a change 1 minute long into a different dress. I learned the dance but only got to do half of it! And the guy who played Seaweed was 11 and he was also kinda mean. And then we had to fake kiss like 6 inches away! But at least the girl playing the lead(Tracy) was 15 years old and also, I had a crush on the guy who played Link.
Ooh my first show (Honk Jr.), I played Henrietta, but cuz our cast was small, I also was ensemble. I had an insanely quick quick change to get out of my froglet costume and into my blizzard costume, plus modify my makeup a bit. Opening night, I run on late because of that quick change
In 6th grade, we were doing Singin’ in the Rain. I, featured ensemble, had to do an about 45 second quick change from a very hard to get on and off sparkly dress into another dress for the last scene of the show. I had lines in the scene. But I was ALWAYS late. That sparkly thing was the hardest thing to unbutton. They had to cut out the change the REHEARSAL BEFORE OPENING NIGHT. I was lost on stage because I didn’t know where the people who didn’t change were supposed to be. I’ve gotten better since then lol.
Me who hate math and formula and stuff snd analytics everyone knows yet noone ever question me ever if I say I study accounting they just accept it: I can confirm
Lol yeah as an Irish dancer I loved that they were included. I must say, I’m such a fan of their creativity, it goes along to the music so well with so many little cool additions. The first one is hard tho, id take a bit of practice for me to get that one down, I applaud them
@@twistysnacks gladly that was a highlight of that show. She was playing this caged bird in Once Upon a Mattress (i think it was a Nighting Gale but I'm not sure as I was in 3rd or 4th grade at the time. I have never been so happy to not be in a scene because holy cannoli I was dying
5:18 When the younger ones who think they deserve every lead role, even if it doesn’t suit them, they’re played leads already, rude to everyone, grow up and become seniors:
7:58 - Okay but they both killed it!! 8:49 - The slew of these tiktoks where they just used random wires as the mics LOL 11:36 - How he managed to do this so accurately in a minute is wild lol 13:30 - God i love irish dancing videos like this, the taps on the beat are so satisfying
I thought I was a theater kid that never got a chance because my school didn’t have a theater class I w a s w r o n g I don’t think my poor anxiety-filled heart could take this much chaos
idk why i got so excited when the guy was singing welcome to the 60s in the quick change tik took in 9:10 😂😂😂 i’m doing hairspray this spring and i literally was like OMG IK THAT SONG 😂😂
As the prop manager of my school's current show, the props that one guy had were super neat to me! If only we could have the budget for such cool and advanced props haha
14:16 that's Japanese musical troupe Takarazuka for you man. All of their actresses have to dance, jump, kick, fight, duet dance, literally anything on that narrow bridge lol. That's an all-women troupe which means even the male characters are played by women. They even have a thing that all actresses dance on and running up and down narrow stair cases without looking. Please check them out they are very cool!
Okay I can just imagine her saying 9:47, Now I'm standing in the kitchen carving up a chicken for dinner Minding my own business In storms my husband Wilbur in a jealous rage "You been screwin' the milkman", he says He was crazy and he kept on screaming "You been screwin' the milkman" And then he ran into my knife He ran into my knife ten times
Sameeee!!! I have been a theatre kid for like, not even a year so I'm pretty new to all the Broadway/musical stuff, but Jeremy Jordan has already won my heart
My favorite is simultaneous quick-change while carrying on a conversation and singing off-stage backup vocals. I even imagine the sound tech reading a magazine while bringing the choral mics in and out at the right time.
10:49 i was vivienne in legally blonde jr and I had really fast quick change at the end of a scene and then I had to start the very next scene with a bunch of people at a party so everyone had to wait for me it was so awkward. The worst part was, as soon as set was cleared (it was a small set with like two chairs), crew would turn the lights on and I like didn’t have a shirt on. Fun times
10:48 is so true, I’m currently doing All Shook Up and there’s people complaining about the multiple scenes they have to change costumes, whereas I (Natalie in the show) have at the longest a minute to change from costume to costume, the shortest is about 30 seconds 😭
I was in grease and we had a quick change from our outfits to pajamas and I struggled so bad with that. One I almost forgot my cue so I ran to the door and pretended like I came back from using the bathroom in the fake house. Also, I always made sure I had my box of twinkies under the bed for that scene and whenever the scene started, it always wasn’t there. I sometimes get mad when other people touch your props
10:53 when i did xanadu, i didn't realize how short the speaking was inbetween strange magic and all over the world because our director would always hold there, so on show night i was quick changing from my siren costume to and 80s costume, and the music started playing while i was trying to leggings over my character shoes-- i JUST made it onstage by my cue
Gossiping happens in Show Choir too. These two upperclassman were litterally trash talking my gf while eating lunch with me (they forgot I was there) and literally did what those two did in the tik tok when they remembered.
that quick change one i asked someone to help me and even with that i got to my place like seconds before i walked on, almost in bright orange socks from the costume before 😂
10:47 no cuz for Chicago last year I had a literal 10 second quick change and one night there was no one there to help me, I was so panicked that I think the only time I was breathing for the next few numbers was when I had to sing lol
4:11 oh man my high school theatre teacher cast an alto in a soprano role because she was the teacher's pet, but then cast me (her only soprano) in a non-singing ensemble role and honestly i'm glad covid prevented the show ever happening because i know it would have sounded like shit when the lead can't hit her damn notes
" You want belle? Oh that's bold. " I felt that 😅 and " Little did they know I'm going to be loud as hell regardless "
When she said "also big gurls don't really...."😂
@@Bllue I hate it when people do that, I’m 6’2” and a freshman and I always get cast as ensemble because the male lead is always super short
PLSSS

Thats why i will never trust seniors(though im canadian and we dont refer to grade 12's as seniors 😋), ever.
I swear groff always finds the bootleggers cameras
Man its like his ultimate talent or sumn. super broadway level bootleg camera finder
i was watching a new brain and he was singing the very last line and he was singing “soooo” and staring right into the camera and i was so scared-
@@chillfactory9000 PLEASE SFHGCGHJ
He’s like my cat watching me tiptoe down the stairs at 3 am
IKR
1:32 the funniest thing is that half of those were clips from the same songs and the tik toker didn’t know bc only certain parts are tik tok audios
Ik I was like um this is literally 3/4 of beetle juice
I think that’s the point, people who only know the songs from Tiktoks don’t know the entire song
Ikr like no one wants a waste over nine inches ITS FROM SIX
and MARTHA DUMP TRUCK IN THE FLESH THATS FROM HEATHERS
@@xoxochar_ thank you! If you’re gonna use a song at least know the context of it

I’d be low key terrified if i was filming Hamilton and Johnathan Groff looked straight at my camera
Especially since he's the one that says it's specifically prohibited
I'd be highly key terrified
omg nice catra pfp!!!
1. THE FRESHMAN POV IM DED!
2. THE PHANTOM ONE KILLED ME
I died multiple times during this video
Yes
As an accountant was a bop and I would listen to that for hours. (6:18!)
Img that one was amazing. I'm glad u like it i was afraid accountants might take it the wrong way. 🙃
As the child of two accountants, I feel comfortable saying that all accountants would find this delightful. All of them.
His face scares me
Me who hate math and formula and stuff snd analytics everyone knows yet noone ever question me ever if I say I study accounting they just accept it: I can confirm
Those dancing ones are Irish dance, not tap dance. So not technically musical theatre, but I love that they’re getting more attention!
I'm Irish
Lol, I was like why? But okay with it.
Lol yeah as an Irish dancer I loved that they were included. I must say, I’m such a fan of their creativity, it goes along to the music so well with so many little cool additions. The first one is hard tho, id take a bit of practice for me to get that one down, I applaud them
@@justine4387 it’s been a long while since I’ve danced, but I would love to get back into it
I was just about to comment that! They get confused so often (I'm Irish)
What my theatre teacher says is if you have 5 mins backstage after changing, it’s NOT A QUICK CHANGE
0:58 no heckin way! I used to go to school with her, that show was Once upon a Mattress and I remember dying backstage (FYI she's actually amazing)
Please explain what the hell she's doing here
@@twistysnacks gladly that was a highlight of that show. She was playing this caged bird in Once Upon a Mattress (i think it was a Nighting Gale but I'm not sure as I was in 3rd or 4th grade at the time. I have never been so happy to not be in a scene because holy cannoli I was dying

my god that's amazing! imagine watching theater tiktoks and you see this screaming bird and you're like "oh hey i know her"
@@mallorypersephonebby did you get a role?
5:18 When the younger ones who think they deserve every lead role, even if it doesn’t suit them, they’re played leads already, rude to everyone, grow up and become seniors:
K. Unnecessary comment?
Yeah. At least I knew what ones were best for me
3:26 I shouldn't have laughed as hard as I did
sameee
My grandmother was sitting right next to me and I didn't have my earbuds in.... I don't think she heard tho😂
Samee
4:11 god damn I’m in love with this run
What song is this run from?
@@thecookiemaster6101 following. That run and then the belt at the end!
nobody asks you questions when you’re an accountant had me wheezing 😂😂
8:05 The vibrato.. I love these men
Now I know that when I try to be in Broadway look STRAIGHT AT THE CAM for a hot minute until they get scared
“We know about your affair... now I’m gonna have to write a book about it” lives in my brain rent free it’s so painfully accurate 😂
13:31 yeeeessss Irish dance and at 15:07 Irish is soo hard and I’m glad it is finally being appreciated as a part of theatre
I don’t do Irish dance, but my sister does. I haven’t seen a lot of her hard shoe work, mostly soft shoe work, but I agree it’s pretty awesome.
7:58 - Okay but they both killed it!!
8:49 - The slew of these tiktoks where they just used random wires as the mics LOL
11:36 - How he managed to do this so accurately in a minute is wild lol
13:30 - God i love irish dancing videos like this, the taps on the beat are so satisfying
Can’t forget the gallons of spit
Ok but like I’m an a accountant is kinda fire 🔥
YESSS~~~
The "and just like that... we have ourselves a show" line is uncomfortably relatable
why does the girl at 4:26 look like she would be in a disney channel show
Ikkkkk
10:48 That's literally me not only with costume changes, but just every time I have to go on stage.
I thought I was a theater kid that never got a chance because my school didn’t have a theater class
I w a s w r o n g
I don’t think my poor anxiety-filled heart could take this much chaos

idk why i got so excited when the guy was singing welcome to the 60s in the quick change tik took in 9:10 😂😂😂 i’m doing hairspray this spring and i literally was like OMG IK THAT SONG 😂😂

As the prop manager of my school's current show, the props that one guy had were super neat to me! If only we could have the budget for such cool and advanced props haha

10:47 omg they really do freak out about their quick change like calm all the way down
8:35, you can tell how he lit up after it worked. We love this for you.
14:24 really called me out 💀
Okay I can just imagine her saying 9:47,
Now I'm standing in the kitchen carving up a chicken for dinner
Minding my own business
In storms my husband Wilbur in a jealous rage
"You been screwin' the milkman", he says He was crazy and he kept on screaming
"You been screwin' the milkman"
And then he ran into my knife
He ran into my knife ten times
Yess the last videoooo
Also groff staring into peoples cameras is funny as hell lmao
4:26 okay but this is literally so good
5:11 this is how you know she is a theater kid. 🎉
3:29 I’m glad the sound man isn’t annoyed with his ball sack 😂
The entire video was fun! Happy it was recommended.
I have no clue what the Irish dancers have to do with theater kid tiktoks but I'm so here for it

And I love that

6:58 is by far the funniest thing I have seen all month
3:40 that took a second to process then I burst out laughing
3:18 jokes on you I'm loud as heck. I can talk over the paper bag easy
I’m an accountant. AAHAHAHAHAHAH I’m dying
13:30 Not only do I approve, its now my life goal to play all four parts... at the same time.
8:30 😂 “the phantom of the opera is there sh*t inside your mind 😂😂😂” I don’t wanna sh*t inside my mind 😂😂😂
Hamilton in 1 minute had me dying!🤣🤣
ive been vibing to the accountant song for an hour now and its 3am and i havent slept in 2 weeks
Ok but at 12:47 did nobody else see Philip just chilling up in the rafters?
9:34 I aspire to be as confident as these people 🙌
“The sound man is not annoyed by my ball sack” has to be the best line😂
That Phantom duet!
Freaked me out because I realized I knew the guy on the left (seen him in community theatre shows but don’t think he knows me lol)
As a former theatre kid these are so hilarious 😂
As a never-been, I agree
I am a theater kid and I approve these tiktoks
5:18 gave me flashbacks
14:31 I fucking screamed when I saw JerJor's name
