The way Moritz keeps physical distance between him and his father, and the way that he tenses up after the second slap implies that he assumed his dad was going to keep hitting him. This means that this isn’t the first time his dad has hit him and that last time was much worse.
i keep rewatching the ending, when they all join in singing "and then there were none." it's so filled with emotion! chilling. they're all such amazing actors.
a) This was on Broadway 2/10/07. b) They only removed the slaps on tour, on Broadway they were omitted when Tony Carlin (understudy) went on as the adult man.
ive noticed that a lot of things in this musical seem to switch around, but what's with the cutting of the whole "they freak or want, you toe the line," part?
@weenylem If that's the case then Lea probably would have requested that both the sex scene and the beating scene be omitted as well. There are many, many scenes that would be considered "uncomfortable"; that's part of performing.
love this song so much, but how come it cuts off loads of the talking bits and also how come it misses of of moritz's bridge verses? this is in relation to the soundtrack, did they make a longer version for the soundtrack? that was never done on stage?
This is the Frances Mercanti-Anthony, the understudy to the oringal adult woman, Christine Estabrook(as seen here: ua-cam.com/video/oMbiwOM5rbM/v-deo.html)
it's a reference to an american nursery rhyme called "ten little indians". the version featured in the 1945 movie entitled "and then there were none" ends like this: "one little Indian boy left all alone, he went out and hanged himself and then there were none" which fits in the exact moment moritz starts contemplating suicide
It's probably mostly a reference to an Agatha Christie novel, And Then There Were None, which heavily features that poem. Like the poem, the novel ends with the last character left alive (well, so they think, I won't spoil it too much) killing themself.

his emotion, desperation, and overall talent in this and the whole show is absolutely incredible. he was made for this role
it’s weirdly hot
@@oliviafairley4351 it's hot hot
I hope that paper had an understudy...
I laughed too hard at this 8 years later.
JGJ was the only actor to properly get Moritz, I think. :D
JGR is so cute and adorable as Moritz, it's kinda hard watching this scene. makes you wanna give him a hug
This is maybe my favorite performance in Spring Awakening - either this or Don't Do Sadness. He rocks!

JGJ got Moritz all the way from the dreams to the twitching in Bitch of Living. Hes just fucking amazing, hes my idol!

Pauly00001 what? I'm confused about "b"
@@rebeccamarples1298 In the beginning of this scene, Moritz's father slaps him. They removed the slaps for the First National Tour.
He's perfect. Cannot stop replaying 3:33-3:55
You’ll write my folks
wellll okayyyyyyyyy
lol what a cutie
this is actually pretty hard to watch without getting teary eyed.
0:40 is so heartbreaking. amazing performance from jgj!
INCREDIBLY POWERFUL
Wow I love him as Moritz, which I could have seen him
and then there were naan
I'm in love with this
OH MY HEART MY--
Coby Getzug was the most recent Mortiz, and I personally thought he was amazing!
ive noticed that a lot of things in this musical seem to switch around, but what's with the cutting of the whole "they freak or want, you toe the line," part?
I figured that he just started that verse in the wrong place and then just went with it?
Basil Sweaterious no they cut it on broadway
Some things changed from off broadway (this video) to the broadway performance where it's like the recording.
Also it’s “won’t”
Sorry to be nitpicky 😬
@TheElectricElephant I agree so hard.
@weenylem If that's the case then Lea probably would have requested that both the sex scene and the beating scene be omitted as well. There are many, many scenes that would be considered "uncomfortable"; that's part of performing.
I was Moritz over the summer. And I feel like my performance was horrible compared to this!
jordan southwood everyone's is, don't you worry

Grace Whelan it was done off broadway or for previews..
ALSO the slaps are nothing compared to the fighting I saw in the production is nothing. Wow. OH and is this the original adult woman or a replacement?
This is the Frances Mercanti-Anthony, the understudy to the oringal adult woman, Christine Estabrook(as seen here: ua-cam.com/video/oMbiwOM5rbM/v-deo.html)

@TheElectricElephant yup
@AdamEfimoff oh sorry, lol, i meant JGJ lol
I like this song,but I don't know fully what And Then There were none means.

@TheElectricElephant the one on tour now is....not good.
