I’m calling it: This is the best channel on UA-cam. Thank you for reminding me why I fell in love with music theatre in the first place. And thank you for being the best entertainment during this whole ordeal.
Thank you so much.
aurora spiderwoman please tell me you do trades because I would love to see a whole recording of some of your videos.
AAAAAAAMEN
Christine Baranski is SUCH an underrated actress. She's fantastic!
She nailed this. And this is a tough one to perform. Wow.
This woman just radiates charisma
How in the entire fuck does she do it???? These are lyrics everyone seeing this (both here and in that audience) has heard 100s of times before.... and I am laughing as if it's the first time! This woman is a GD genius. Man, I wish she'd come back to Broadway.
I yield to no one my love for Angela Lansbury but Ms Baranski gets mileage out of Mrs Lovett that even she overlooked. There are details in this rendition of Mr Sondheim's delicious song I never noticed until now.
I like her version the best. There is just the right amount of comedy and tragedy! You laugh and you feel for her!
She's MILES ABOVE this Annaleigh bozo we have now on Broadway. She keeps her voice the exact same the same way through, like someone in an audition trying to sing it completely even voiced and boring
Imagine a range from this to Diane Lockhart. Wow.
I love how smoky her low notes are!
She’s so great! And in a way what she’s doing is unexpected and I guess what I mean by that is she doesn’t seem like Christine Baranski playing Mrs. Lovett she just seems like Mrs. love it! If that makes any sense? I also love how she switches from her chest to head voice to a more mixed, breathy register It’s more seamless than the wonderful Dame Lansbury‘s. The blocking/musical staging really mined the comedy for this and I love it!
The two dislikes are from the Beadle and the Judge
She’s just such a good actress
I looooove Christine Baranski
She killed it
I love her expression on 'But good? Nyooooooo!'
yes!!!! it was so good!!!
Christine is brilliant. I love her in everything. I wish she would do it his again so I could see first hand.
The look on his face when he bites into the pie is golden!!......lol
Christine Baranski is just such a brilliant actress
What an amazing performance this is! She is completely in character throughout the entire song and honestly she sings circles around Patti Lupone and Angela Lansbury, seamlessly moving from a gutsy chest voice to brassy mixed voice to lovely head voice.
I agree - and I saw the original Broadway production with Angela Lansbury... The jokes and double entendres go by so fast, but Baranski gets across several that the other actresses miss - character, voice, diction, timing - I am very impressed! And yes, I laughed out loud even though I know the show....
She's just terrific!
She's just fucking brilliant, extraordinary
OH MY GOD MY FAVORITE ACTRESS
Oh em geee!!! LOVED this soooo much! Thank you Spiderwoman. We love you!!!
Thank you, glad you liked it.
My God so effortless!
I had no idea she played this role at some point! She’s one of my favorite actresses! Brilliant! I would have loved to see this whole production!!!
Wasn’t she the stepmother in the Into the Woods movie and Mary Sunshine in Chicago and Martha May in the Grinch movie
Yes! Her name is Christine Baranski and she is amazing!
And a dynamo in MAMMA MIA movie and Leonards mum in BIG BANG THEORY
She was also Robin Williams' ex in The Bird Cage. Enormous talent.
she's also the goblin(?) chef in trolls
I first knew her as Maryann, Cybil Shepard's best friend on the sitcom Cybil in the 90s. She was also in the movie Jeffrey. She is Wonderful! 🎉
Stunning!
What a gift!! Thank you as always!
Why does no one ever do Lansbury's grunts as they're kneeding the dough when that's so funny?
PLEASE COME TO BROADWAY IF IT EVER OPENS AGAIN!
omg thank you so so much for uploading this. anything more will always be appreciated. ❤️❤️❤️
I didn't know she could sing so well!
Thank you so much for this! I remember watching this in KC & was floored at how great her performance was & is, to-date, my fave portrayal of Mrs. Lovett live 🙂💜
Literally one of the BEST versions of Mrs. Lovitts
oh my gosh this is fantastic!!!
Es increíblemente talentosa, digna de admirar, Christine es y va a ser siempre mi actriz favorita, su trabajo es impecable.
my favorite version among others
She is Fantastic
Please tell me there’s a full video of this. I would die for the whole recording.
Billy Smith I second that.
Same here. I'd really love to see the whole show.
I 3rd it and I would go 1 further and say i'd kill for it too.
another piece of gold. Is there any of Brian doing Sweeney?
I've never laughed hard for this version. She did well
Martha-May Who fell on hard times
I see you are a man of CULTURE
She's HYSTERICAL 😂😂😂
She is such a perfect Ms Lovett
A customer!
Wait! What's your rush?
What's your hurry?
You gave me such a...
fright! I thought you was a ghost!
Half a minute, can't ya sit?
Sit ya down!
Sit!
All I meant is that I haven't seen a customer for weeks.
Did ya come here for a pie, sir?
Do forgive me if my head's a little vague.
Ugh!
What is that?
But you'd think we had the plague.
From the way that people
keep avoiding!
No you don't!
Heaven knows I try, sir!
But there's no one comes in even to inhale!
Right you are, sir, would you like a drop of ale?
Mind you I can hardly blame them!
These are probably the worst pies in London.
I know why nobody cares to take them!
I should know!
I make them!
But good? No
The worst pies in London
Even that's polite! The worst pies in London!
If you doubt it take a bite!
Ugh!
Is that just, disgusting?
You have to concede it!
It's nothing but crusting!
Here drink this, you'll need it.
The worst pies in London
And no wonder with the price of meat
what it is
when you get it.
Never thought I'd live to see the day.
Men'd think it was a treat
findin' poor
animals
what are dyin' in the street.
Mrs. Mooney has a pie shop.
Does a business, but I notice something weird.
Lately, all her neighbors cats have disappeared.
Have to hand it to her!
What I calls,
enterprise!
Poppin' pussies into pies!
Wouldn't do in my shop!
Just the thought of it's enough to make you sick!
And I'm telling you them pussycats is quick.
No denying times is hard, sir!
Even harder than the worst pies in London.
Only lard and nothing more-
Is that just revolting?
All greasy and gritty?
It looks like it's molting!
And tastes like...we'll pity.
A woman alone...with limited wind
And the worst pies in London!
Ah, sir
Times is hard.
Times is hard.
Diane Lockhart, what have they done to you?!
Just kidding, lol. What a gift this is.
If Katya Zamolodchikova were to do a musical
SHES CYOOT!
If Carol Burnette did real Broadway, it'd be her. Lol
Is Christine Baranski playing Mrs Lovett the same as her 1999 incarnation in this video or doing something similar to Patti LuPone who plays two different versions of Mrs Lovett? I notice the hair is the same for Baranski in 1999 and 2002, but from the videos I've seen the costumes are different, which might be due to different songs in each video but it might be the same version of the character with different clothing through each production.
Aurora Spiderwoman = best UA-camr in the history of UA-camrs
Look at that! Agnes van Rhijn can sing!
She looks like Cheryl Hines
She played alongside Frasier and now...CAM WIIIIINSTOON???
does she say 'Guest' instead of 'Ghost' ?
Is Mrs. Lovett about to say "shitty" or "kitty"?
It never occurred to me that it could be 'kitty', that's great!
Christine has to be the best Lovett (she will be the best... untill the day when Bernadette Peters will play this role)
A fav actress doing a fav song. Just wish we could hear better audio / visual. With pro sound engineer. Orchestra buries her.
not bad, but Julia McKenzie's interpretation is much better
She's the most beautiful voiced one of them all, and the variation is phenomenal. Comic, crass, beautiful, tragic, everything. Staunton was too gruff, Angela is perfect, Emma Thompson phenomenal but not as good of a singer as Christine. And Annaleigh Ashford - garbage.
Nope.
She makes smart acting choices. But I always experience her as bland. Even banal. Relying on some charm tricks. But never a living breathing sentient being. And I do admire her craft.
She's too American for this part.
huh?
