CHALLENGE: festive theatre posters on the London underground |

[@rburns5495]

Wonderful surprise! Love these challenges. Fave comment today came from Ellie “who needs a plan when you look this good”. Right on! Congrats to the winner & thank you all for the festive fun 🏅 😊

Very festive! Ellie’s self-confidence is inspiring. I look forward to the off West End debut of “Underground Challenge, the Musical” in a few years; the possibilities of existential solos connected to specific lines and stations is endless.

[@MickeyJoTheatre]

LOVE that idea! And we should all aspire to be more like Ellie!

[@alicebarlow4761]

Love another theatre challenge with you three! And it’s a Christmasy one! “They haven’t seen me because I…am in a bush” 😂😂

[@EllieTalksTheatre]

God, I'm losing it in that outro - I'm *phoning it in* 😏

[@MickeyJoTheatre]

HATE

[@EllieTalksTheatre]

@@MickeyJoTheatre I knew you'd enjoy this one 😂

[@PS-DLMA]

I am obsessed with the fact you love Bluey

[@benisham85]

Isn’t any musical with Mincemeat in the title intrinsically festive?

[@KC-55]

I love love love these challenges! Please tell me I’m not the only who points or shouts at the screen when someone misses one?

[@MickeyJoTheatre]

Don't worry, I do this a LOT while editing 😂 I think Ellie must have gone back on herself a lot because there were so many tall Frozen posters she ignored?!

[@EllieTalksTheatre]

​@@MickeyJoTheatreif I'm thinking of the right moment, I had counted them already!

[@KC-55]

@@EllieTalksTheatre I hope so cos I was yelling so loud I woke my sleeping dogs up. They weren’t impressed.

[@LostHatProductions]

10:06 you went past a poster for La Boheme but you didn’t count it, though it’s partly set on Xmas Eve and there’s lots of snow and cold (but not always in a good way) so it should count, but it’s your call.

[@andrerwhaag2734]

Woke up with some anxiety. But this was just the cure I needed. You all are great! Hope your holiday was awesome and wishing you the best in the New Year.

[@JB-qf5ep]

I wonder if there is a way to adapt these challenges to posters at the fringe? Maybe spotting posters for shows that are not on the day of the challenge - so closed shows, shows that havents started yet and shows on their off days?

[@IshScout]

Fantastic way to end the year with one more chaotic romp through the underground. Looking forward to another year of fun content. (maybe we can squeeze in a few live album reactions even though I know they were a pain to do hehe)

Love these only just come across this one despite being subscribed! Some ideas for future games: 1. 1. Theatre Poster games adaptions: a) Locking a station so only the first to visit said station gets to collect points from station - players might be more tactical or even miss big stations. b) A poster curse, each player gets to nominate a show will will deduct points. Clearly Frozen would deduct a lot of points.

[@amandastumpff5252]

I can’t tell you how much joy these challenges bring me 😊

[@mwmheps]

Fun as always 😊 I had no idea so many shows had different posters at Christmas especially the subtle ones, never noticed them!

[@amythomas7054]

23:55 missed opportunity for you to say "outside it is winter but in here is so hot"

[@GGinaX]

OK pitch for a challenge. Theatre pubs. You have to go round the west end and film yourselves visiting as many theatre pubs as you can. They have to be known as theatre pubs. Extra points if its visually obvious it's a theatre pub (the decor etc) and Major extra points if you spot any actors in the pub while you're there.

[@banrions]

yayyyy these are so fun and charming i'm glad yall have kept doing them

[@amandas2168]

I love these challenges you guys have to do a challenge in new york

[@bethswanson202]

OMG, I love these challenges SO MUCH! And I have such a girl crush on Ellie ❤❤❤ Greetings from California

[@44nobody]

Thank you for the festive fun. 🎄

[@amynorth5621]

Aren’t these just lovely to watch! Any chance of an Evita review??

[@MickeyJoTheatre]

So glad you enjoyed! Coming soon - just haven't been home since I saw it right before Christmas!

[@RaymondNYC1]

This was a fun scavenger hunt! (Seeing that Tina is still running in London makes me wonder why it was so much less successful in NY?)

[@MickeyJoTheatre]

I think many of the jukebox shows are more succesful here - audiences in London vs New York in the last decade have felt more unadventurous re musicals so will prefer anything with an element of familiarity. Though it's closing soon, we've spent some time with Jersey Boys open also alongside Tina and Mamma Mia.

[@PS-DLMA]

It is currently touring Australia

[@graciecawsey8670]

I LOVE these challenge videos!

[@PS-DLMA]

Mickey - i want your jumper.....and honary 50points for the jazzy grinch pianist :)

[@lucaroberts5696]

Love these videos all so funny

[@sassy1230]

I absolutely love these challenges.

[@cassandragough]

An hour on the underground with the three nicest people on KZbin; what more could you want! Great fun guys.

[@MickeyJoTheatre]

Very sweet of you, glad you enjoyed!

[@Pbmknipua]

Love these stagey challenges! Thanks for all the great videos, MickeyJo. Here's a fun idea - for a future challenge, what if you asked another person (like Shaun) to announce the results so the three of you find out who the winner is at the same time as all us "little people in your camera?" That might be really fun!

[@EllieTalksTheatre]

Funnily enough, this challenge was the first time I didn't know the results beforehand so my reaction was genuine! 😂

[@Pbmknipua]

That's fantastic, @@EllieTalksTheatre! I love it! Exactly, I thought it might be even more fun if we got to see that genuine reaction from all three of you. Either way, love the videos and love when you're a part of them, Ellie. 😊

[@neilwaldock6272]

At 53:55, did I hear Mickey say "y'all"?

[@susanpolastaples9688]

Have they got Stevie Mama Mia posters up

[@theshadowdirector]

University of Plymouth?! My old alumni! Where I did the first 2 years of my theatre course, granted it was outsourced outside of Plymouth but still!

[@DrEvilsFinger]

“And slay”… or should that be sleigh?!

[@MickeyJoTheatre]

OHMYGOD SLEIGH!

[@Jemmacaithness]

Love these challenges, great to see how you all tackle it differently. But please please please stop the sound of the points dinging everytime
