"it's hard to sing. I'm gonna be kinder the next time I give her a note" made me laugh so hard
God the two of them are so f**king smart, it's inspiring!
I was thinking the same!😊
They're winning a Tony.
THEY WON A TONY
HALLELUJAH
@@TheZeitergeist3 THEY WON 5
These ladies did a VERY good job with this show. It’s so well thought through and they REALLY care about the material
I love the way their outfits are colour-coördinated. That says teamwork.
Yes, they are winning the Tony.
Viva las lace up boots!!!
This is incredibly interesting, feel very lucky to have been let in on their thought processes. Dreaming of Fun Home coming to the West End.
This need to be on the West End
YEP
I hope they win Best Musical!!! They will definitely win!!!
Brilliant women. It’s a whole different structure, building a story in song and plot versus slamming existing songs into a formulaic jukebox show wherever they fit.
this interview is gold!! so glad this exists!
This video is gold! Thank you:))
Such an incredible show!!!
They did an interview on Fresh Aire today (8/17/14) where they discuss several of the songs and how they came to fruition. Very interesting approach.
I love this show so much.
This is the second time I'm asked in a college musical class to watch this video! It's such a charming video, both in terms of enlightening the audience about the creative process and demonstrating a healthy and fun collaborative relationship. I look up to them so much.
This is amazing! So wonderful to see 2 smart and talented women working :)
They're incredible 😮👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The date of the interview was 8/17/15 - sorry for the typo
You may be cool, but are you "color-coordinate your outfit with your writing partner" cool?
13:19 does anyone know if Jeanine is referencing a musical number in particular, here? It sounds like it might be a Kander & Ebb opening number, but it might also just be a stereotypically Broadway piano riff, I don't know
I have just been wondering but I couldn't quite figure it out - why is the song called and focused on the ring of keys allison sees her wearing? What does that have to do with how allison identifies with her?
BetteDancerBroadway19 I think young Allison is for the first time seeing a woman that she could identify with that dressed in a more masculine rather than typical feminine way and her ring of keys was the definitive butch part of her outfit. I think the fact that she notices that this woman isn't miserable but seemed to be doing just fine being different is also a major takeaway, that is just my interpretation.
Yes that makes complete sense! Thanks!
BetteDancerBroadway19 To add to ay986's interpretation of that scene...I also feel like since this is her first time feeling this, you can see her unable to complete any of her internal thoughts. So she struggles with speaking about them, so she sticks with the physical attributes, things she can define and prove is real. Like her lace up boots, swagger and keys that are on a ring. I honestly have only heard of this musical from the Tony's award show, and have been listening to this song a lot today but that's what I got from it. Sorry if that was confusing. >.
This is a really late reply but maybe it's about her opening her mind to different thoughts?
super late reply but it also could be a thing about how in the comic she talks about how much she was drawn to things that have a purpose and aren't purely aesthetic (unlike her father) and keys are definitely an object that is function over form
this is so banal! repetitive music and pedestrian words Ugh!Please spare us the West End
Kurt Ryz It's literally the best musical that I have ever seen.
