Episode 8: Seize the Day-O: Backstage at BEETLEJUICE with Leslie Kritzer

[@IWillBeHers]

I half expected a joke blooper where Maj goes in the attic and it's just Kelvin Moon Loh up there playing that sax riff.

[@laurapalmer511]

I had my fingers crossed for this.

[@magenwalzak9290]

oh my god me too

[@aaronford2184]

Oh fully!!

[@spookibelle2922]

I thought Alex would jump out in costume, I was braced for a jump scare lol 😖

[@kass]

omg XD

[@daisyestrada6167]

MAJ ACTUALLY SPRAYED THE CATS WITH A BOTTLE OF WATER IM WHEEZING-

[@untoldta1es446]

EXTEND SEIZE THE DAY-O Leslie is peak broadway comedy

[@emikos700]

Untold Ta1es most of these go on for only 8 episodes😭

[@brycesusong6307]

cupcakeees6 too gruel for school went on for 13 episodes

[@piq5349]

i was expecting kelvin to come out with the sax when maj was in the attic

[@kitti5326]

THAT’S WHY LESLIE WAS CALLING FOR CATS ON HER INSTAGRAM STORY OH MY GOD

[@LovisasMustasch]

You know what I would have wanted to see in the attic, Beetlejuice as the Phantom

[@sadberry7716]

The PHAAAAAANTOM OF THE MUSICAL IS HEEEEERRRRREEEEEE

[@cgphotoandfilm]

Omggghgggggggg yesss

[@arianaran5933]

OH MY GOD

[@LovisasMustasch]

Lukas Neuer That would have been something haha I’d love to have seen that too!

[@vicentehizon6202]

That’s at the Majestic theater.

[@laurafurnissroe]

okay but is no one gonna talk about how they got that many ppl to dress up in the cats costumes and makeup again ??

[@georgechlada4868]

Laura I believe it was the touring cast of cats

[@georgechlada4868]

Steph 21 during the credits Troika is thanked and that’s the company producing the current cats tour.

[@kristaclark133]

@Steph 21 def the ensemble, i know ryan breslin when i see him

[@annabelj1560]

George Chlada maybe they got the costumes and stuff from the tour? Idk

[@Jordan-xq5rk]

Stepha O. okay I was gonna comment that the white cat looked like Presley now I know I’m right lol

[@owenhparker]

EXTEND SEIZE THE DAY O!!

[@liamneu1430]

Seize the Dayo is literally the meaning of “I think we can all agree I’m a ten amongst these threes”

[@sleepisfortheweak9907]

SIX!!

[@leolion3323]

Liam Neu Agreed! It needs to come back!

[@lydiakelli2363]

*bursts into song*

[@laurenring9721]

ALL YOH WANNA DO ALL YOU BABY

[@notguilty6217]

I'm convinced this whole episode was a bad fever dream. And also, now I have no more reason to look forward to tuesdays.

[@spacedev8580]

and then maj was whisked away to the circus with the non-equity touring cast of cats the musical, and was never heard from again. meanwhile, from the very top of the winter garden theatre, grizabella still sung a soulful sad tune, amongst the ghosts beetlejuice unleashed into the theatre...

[@sk8phan]

Can we get an extension of the vlog please?

[@TheRealSullyG]

What a finale

[@sophiedeacey3077]

NOOOOOO NOT THE ENDDD 😭😭😭

[@barbllm]

Ken page, Betty Buckley, and the cast of cats? this vlog officially wins everything!

[@amymarieorla]

Not the cast. Its bjs ensemble dressed up

[@LouisH267]

EXTEND EXTEND EXTEND PLEASE 😍🤩 this is the greatest vlog

[@ruby7226]

leslie is one of the most versatile actresses and she’s been underrated for years. i’m so so so proud of her for building a big part of the huge following that is beetlejuice💜💚

[@victoriavictoria8210]

I love how nobody looked when they were all dressed as cats dancing in the streets. It’s that normal in NYC

[@AJ-os1pq]

They probably see the camera and figure it’s for some video

[@victoriavictoria8210]

Amelie J I would still be watching tho

[@AJ-os1pq]

Tabitha D true but yeah New York is kinda infested with freaks they’re used to it😂

[@victoriavictoria8210]

Amelie J that’s why I said “it’s that common in nyc” in my original comment lol

[@AJ-os1pq]

Tabitha D yeah ik that’s why I said “yeah”. I was just in New York two days ago and I saw some grown man in a bikini at the end of November! Like wtf New York is weird

[@chumpythebunny9000]

Next Week: Maj goes below the Majestic Theatre to find the Phantom of the Opera!

[@henrycawood1569]

This is seriously the best vlog since looks not books. We need at least a few more weeks

[@AceOfSpades066]

We need more! Leslie's a great vlog host. That was brilliant.

[@emilywhitson5443]

[@jenniferchandler6511]

[@heymickii]

[@daisyestrada6167]

okay but why did all the cats actually scare me 😭

[@nicole_md]

[@leolion3323]

Same! I just saw a moving mass in the dark blue light. So there ARE demons working their magic in Beetlejuice!

[@sashkapolly6724]

I hope Leslie's gonna be back in revival, and we're gonna get 'Seize the Day-O' again, 'cause it's gold

[@PatrickKCompton]

OMG! That was Epic!!! Please continue this Vlog! Thank you Leslie for such great material! Hope to see the show again soon. :)
