@@triplethreatmua9423 I think Leslie only played Paulette once - the understudies weren't rehearsed yet and Leslie knew most of the material so she did one performance (and absolutely crushed it, there's a video of it somewhere on UA-cam)
Matt Have you ever seen or heard The Great American Trailer Park Musical? She was plain amazing in it! You'll recognize the lady playing Pippi too! I will give you a hint: She also played Paulette. ;)
OH MY GOSH I DONT KNOW WHICH DELIA I LIKE MORE NOW XD. This one is really more aggressive with Lydia throughout the musical and I imagined Delia to be like that.
I LOVE UNDERSTUDIES!!!! This Delia is SO SECRETLY MATERNAL like, she would be such a good step mom if she stopped being self obsessed. AHHHHHHH I LOVE NEW TAKES ON THINGS AHHHHH
The acting here is superb! Musical Delia already captured a caricature of “that” type of person pretty well, but this actress sells it so hard that it makes me feel like I could encounter her irl
Yeah - the original Delia presents more of the 70s/80s woo, while this Delia perfectly encapsulates the modern Facebook Avocado Wolfe-sharing loon. It's a brilliant depiction.
I love Natalie with all of my heart. She is so incredibly funny and talented and ugh I just love her so much. Everything she does is instantly amazing. I hope she gets the recognition she deserves because she is an absolute force.
I personally think that the Delia and Lydia were amazing. You all have to remember that there not going to be exactly like the original actors and that the directors and producers of Beetlejuice picked them and I think they know what they were doing. The hate on these two ladies in the comments disgust me. Beetlejuice is a amazing fandom with not a lot of hate and lets keep it that way.
First time seeing this version and I really like how she portrays Delia. This version really gives more of a mrs flemming, Paulette, mrs George vibe. I love it!!!
I saw the show this past Saturday and Natalie Charle Ellis performed as Delia and I immediately fell in love with her! She played Delia so well, she was my absolute favorite out of all the performers! She was amazing and I wish her the best success. She so deserves it! 💚💚
I love this adaptation of Delia, it’s honestly what I would expect someone to do with this material and I absolutely adore how she just had fun with it
I feel like this one gives me more of Ms. Flemming (Heathers) vibes in it. She's an amazing singer but I have to say Leslie killed it better tho. edit: but i love she made delia a bit more comedic-- er i mean aggressive lmao
@C.B. Productions I have no intention to compare them. If I did then I apologize but doesn't mean I hate her portrayal, I just prefer someone else and there's nothing wrong with having a preference.
Respectfully disagree only because in the movie Delia was a lot more straight forward like this version I feel like she embodies Delia more than Leslie did she was really good and both of them are but Leslie plays off Delia as a dumb character when in the movie she was so much more I feel like this actress did a better job interpreting Delia then Leslie but they are both amazing non the less
Presley Ryan was so underrated as Lydia. It breaks my heart that when she was promoted to leading lady, she was only going to be in the role for about a month. That then got cut short, and she didn’t get invited back from most likely schooling, as she recently shared she was accepted into college. I hope she can reprise her role soon, even for just a small amount of time. She was definitely my favorite Lydia, though I do love them all.
I saw Natalie as Delia when we went to see Beetlejuice instead of Leslie, and she was AMAZING!! She was so energetic, funny, and talented and just WOW!!
just saw natalie as delia!!! shes SO good i couldnt believe it when i saw she was the understudy, i feel like she embodies delia so well she really thrives in the role
THIS MUSICAL IS SO GOOD!! THIS SONG IS GOOD TOO JUST THE BEST MODERN MUSICAL LATELY!! ALSO LOVE THIS the delia girl has so much energy I wish I can see it on Broadway with the original cast rn before they leave and new people take their place
I ADORE THIS PRESLY AND NATALIE. Ok but seriously they both bring different versions to there character I haven’t seen her preform in a show but I did see Presley as Lydia and oh my gosh is she good she’s improved so much (this was before the pamdic thing occurred) and I love how Natalies Delia is totally different then Leslie’s her seem more chaotic idk I’m here for it I’ve kinda gotten used to both cast because they both are gonna be different and they both offer unique takes on there characters. I’m here for it!!! Great job guys ( also I now wanna see Natalies take on Delia in the show)
I LOVE her as Delia even a bit more than Leslie like wow she is someone I would interact in real life and man I have rewatched this SO many times. Wow I love her
My dance teacher knows the Delia!! That’s so crazy to me she told me about it and I was like oh what does she play, and she’s like idk. I wanted to watch this song and I was like.. wait Natalie Charles Ellis......... that sounds familiar..... WAIT
She kind of looks like the movie Delia, I really like her interpretation of Delia. I don't usually like the understudies more than the obc, but I love her Delia, it seems more real to me then Leslie's, idk why, maybe cause she just sounds older? I don't like her Ms. Argentina, I prefer Leslie for that part, but I love this woman's Delia, she just brings more power to it and I love that. Lol also the guys face when she talks about buying a cat at 2:36
Is the band the same one that plays during the show, or is it a session band for the event? The drummer's really nailing it if he's going from the book.
What was so sad was in the backround the guy playing drums had someone turing the page but the guy turning the page couldn’t turn the page in time and couldn’t turn the page it looked so sad 😂
I think that Delia is just trying to help Lydia, because she says things like "your husband and his wife fled to rome.." and, "and you have to get a cat meow, because that's your last chance to have a family" I think that actually happened to Delia. She only wants to help Lydia, but Lydia won't let her. She wants to prevwnt her past with her first husband from happening to Lydia. She can see that Lydia is hurting deep inside, altthough she doesn't give Lydia the time to properly mourn the death of her mother, Emily, she is still trying her best to be a good mother figure for Lydia. Personally, I loce these little hidden facts about Delia. It's a little hidden insight into her life and her past and why she acts this way. It's why she belives that "Everything, everything happens for a reason" She is trying her best to be a good stepmother to a mourning Lydia. And although by the end of the musical Lydia has made peace with Charles, her father and has accepted the fact that Emily is not coming back, she starts to act like the sweet, kind-hearted, strange and unusal teenage girl she truly is at heart and even somewhat lovingly welcomes Delia into her family as her stepmother. So there is character growth and Delia is starting to allow herslf to give Lydia that much needed time to mourn, and she doesn't seem bothered or disgusted when Lydia mentions her dead mom. Instead she simply allows herslef to try and help Lydia through her mourning process to allow her to be the strange and unusual girl she is.
I love Sophia Anne Caruso but Presley Ryan had a perfect stage presence here, she sang like it was a show. The girl who plays Delia Deetz is also good just a little too "performance heavy" for my liking
Think about this...This girl cant even drive yet alone, she cant vote, cant drink, etc. Yet shes on BROADWAY. It's just amazing to me.
Ok well ik a girl that played Matilda on Broadway at the age of 9
She’s been on broadway twice
Sophia Balough XD
Sophia Balough and very talented 💎🔥🔥🔥
I wish I was on Broadway but I couldn't do as half a good job as any of them they're all so amazing!

AngelicCowboy 1:11
it looks like she was expecting something at least slightly helpful then was let down immensely
The eye roll😂
Lmao, I saw that in an earlier video and I died
Why is no one talking about “unicorns are scary”
What about the "buy more crystals!"
Sutton Scales ikr
But they are literally so scary!!!
Unicorns are so so scary
I saw the play yesterday with her. It was awesome when she said that!
Why is nobody talking about how she screamed “a little I am still young in the world”??? Like I cried, that was hilarious
I AM STILL YOUNG >:(
i would like it but there are 420 likes

I feel like she would be an AMAZING Paulette in Legally Blonde
Millie Jane she’s a swing, so she’s not in the show every night, but she covers Delia, Barbara, and Maxine/Juno, as well as ensemble tracks
Fiji Tequila Well, honestly Leslie played her for a bit too.
Matt yep swing plays many roles and it's kinda a catch 22. They can play many roles, yet get type casted a lot.

The way Presley sang “famine and war” had me DYING it was GORGEOUS!!!!
Omg YES.
I love these two so much and the understudies are so underrated. Presley Ryan is a goddess

I LOVE UNDERSTUDIES!!!! This Delia is SO SECRETLY MATERNAL like, she would be such a good step mom if she stopped being self obsessed. AHHHHHHH I LOVE NEW TAKES ON THINGS AHHHHH
And Presley ended up being the 'main' Lydia for however long before the musical closed! She's amazing
“And you have to get a catmeow because it’s your last chance to have a family”
TheRandomAlpha I love that part!!
I love her voice presley is just 15...
Wow delias understudy has such a great voice❤
and she isn't even the main understudy for delia
“a little 👹i am still young👹in the world” has me dying

presley is so underrated but she is amazing!!!
why is no one talking about that spin she did on the drums that was the best thing ive seen in a long time
1:56 best moment of the whole performance
unpopular opinion: this cat of beetlejuice is best
Natalie Charle Ellis is such an underrated performer we stan
I was the one whe screamed before this started i got so excited
First time seeing this version and I really like how she portrays Delia. This version really gives more of a mrs flemming, Paulette, mrs George vibe. I love it!!!

her and presley are amazing together i swear
I LOVE how Presley sings this one. Her verse was sung so well, the way she pronounced lines and the emphasis she put on them, its PERFECT!!
I love how they get to bring their own spin to the characters and they become completely different even tho they follow the same script
Oh gosh I wish I could see this Delia in the musical. I love her performance. She's perfect.
both these performers are just amazing... but DAMN DELIA! YOU GO GIRL!
Unicorns ARE scary!
This is the BEST delia I've seen.

the way Presley said "in famine and wars" sounds so good she is just amazing
Took me a while to see the trees in the back were fake 😂
What...wait...OMG THEY ARE
this is why i don't trust anyone or anything
I absolutely love this performance. Both Actors got their characters absolutely on point and their vocals were amazing
Okay, Delia looks and sounds like my old therapist. I live for it! She’s great
"So you have to buy a cat *meow*"
JESUS THIS DELIA IS VERY MOTIVATING
just saw natalie as delia!!! shes SO good i couldnt believe it when i saw she was the understudy, i feel like she embodies delia so well she really thrives in the role
I think she was born to be Delia!

I can’t decide which Lydia I like more
“Unicorns are scary”
That’s how I look like jamming on my commute in the mornings😂🤦🏻♀️
I sound like Presley in the morning bit when I try to sing to sing I-I dont know what happend
I don’t know which Delia I like better! They both are so good!👏🏻💜👏🏻💜👏🏻

The woman playing Delia would make an amazing Trina in Falsettos and I can’t stop thinking about it
"And you'll have to buy a catMEOW"
Yea, she would definitely work it great as Pauline in LB. Even if only as an understudy.
I know this isnt understudy for delia but damn does she make a good one
She is the understudy for Delia.
C. Moore oooh i read somewhere that she was barbaras oops
@@emmamarshall257 She understudies for both characters.
She seems like a customer I could get at the store
I LOVE HER EXPRESSION !
That lady is really into it
AND YOUR AGING ASS WILL HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT
**intense, aggressive jamming**
EVERYTHING EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON
Delia’s understudy is kind of chaotic and yelling, but I love these two anyways
Presley’s face at 1:11 is like when I ask my sister “can you hand me this” and she’s like “well I cannnn”
Every everything happens for a reason!
Put a little
-deep voice- I AM STILL YOUNG
It got me DYING
DAYUM!
I didn’t think anyone could be a better Delia than Leslie kritzer but this person is amazing😂

When need to give understudies more love like this
Why when Natilie Says "Act positvie" at 0:42 Kind of look like that one time on the voice or something when Nicki Minaj tried to strangle Mariah carey
Unicornsarescary
Yes! Understudy (and main Lydia eventually too in Presley's case) appreciation! I love it £>
When Delia starts losing it and talking about her ex husband
That’s the best part!
She seriously looks like a guidance counselor
The act positive was so funny!!!
2:49
Ok seriously the understudy for Delia is giving me serious Lauren Graham from gilmore girls vibes
Oh my gosh, I adore her as Delia! She's made for this soooo much more than Barbara!
Is the band the same one that plays during the show, or is it a session band for the event? The drummer's really nailing it if he's going from the book.
I’m pretty sure it’s the real actual band that performs on Broadway.
Cheers. Got curious when they had such a palaver with the score. :)
Can we make #unicornsarescary a thing
who's this delia?
What was so sad was in the backround the guy playing drums had someone turing the page but the guy turning the page couldn’t turn the page in time and couldn’t turn the page it looked so sad 😂
I just realised that the background was fake.
some parts of this make me think they dont know how to use handheld mics
Who is this woman? She’s so funny
whys no one appreciating then musicians
• Lydia Bleepers • I thought they were great
That isn't the original Lydia right..? Sophia..? Is that you..?
