Los Angeles VIP Premiere Party | Weekend in an Actor's Life | Vlog Part 1

Hi Friends!! Welcome to a (super fun) weekend in my life!!
WATCH PART 2 HERE: BACKSTAGE AT INTO THE WOODS!
• Backstage at INTO THE ...
This week, we've got part 1 of a weekend in my life (does it count as a weekend if it just takes place over Thursday and Friday? No? Oops). Today, we get to go behind the scenes of PIRATES OF PENZANCE presented by The Hypocrites, currently playing at the Pasadena Playhouse! Exclusive footage from opening night, plus the VIP premiere party. After that, you'll see some slightly more normal stuff (going to school, annoying my parents, etc.) and then a super neat Valentine's Day PR unboxing from Smarties! This vlog also sets up next week's video--which is PART 2, backstage at Into the Woods! If you guys didn't know, I'm a working actress currently in a professional production of INTO THE WOODS in Los Angeles. I'm playing Rapunzel and it's super fun. My friends are ridiculously talented and super silly so I can't wait for you guys to see next week's video.
If you're new to my channel, HI! I'm Katherine and I put out a new theatre related video on every #TheatreThursday plus bonus uploads throughout the week! My videos cover a variety of topics include musical theatre / acting advice, theatre kid lifestyle, performance reviews, and general broadway geekery. Additionally, I make usual KZbinr videos, but with a slight theatre-y twist.

"This is what happens when u let all the arts kids try to do sports". I feel u Kath 😂

[@pongo7695]

The pirate party reminded me of the great comet of 1812

[@lel4389]

"i'm geeking out and very excited" me every time you upload

[@anneblackwood9013]

"This is what happens when you let all the arts kids try to do sports." RELATABLE! Whenever I have to play a game that's slightly sporty I just use the excuse "I go to an arts school!!! I'm a theatre kid in the choir and songwriting classes! We don't *_do_* sports!"

[@Niqhtmusic]

Anne Blackwood hahah! same

[@two-face1041]

She was definitely THE theater booster mom lol

[@Kath_Steele]

President 2 years in a row, secretary for 1

[@jillianharris6513]

You are such an inspiration to student actors and i love you!!! I wish i could see you in Into the Woods. I hope you eventually do a national tour so you can come to Cincinnati, Ohio.

[@Kyndee123]

My first ever musical was Pirates of Penzanzce. I was cast as Edith, even though I was a Sophomore, which is very uncommon in my school! My old choir director and his wife met in this show, and its also where my fiance and I met and started dating. Pirates of Penzance will forever hold a place in my heart ❤

[@shaydee5041]

Kathrine is getting me in the theatre mood!!! I just got casted as jasmine in aladdin jr. and i’m soooooooo excited!!! And seeing you upload got me sooo excited

[@Kath_Steele]

Congrats!! 💕

[@margaretgiles]

[@shaydee5041]

Maggie_ Anne Yes

[@jaxoxob]

YOU 👏 NEED 👏 TO 👏 DO 👏 A 👏 TAG/COLLAB 👏 WITH 👏 YOUR 👏 MOM 👏

[@Kath_Steele]

[@scottbarnes6437]

Your mom seems like such a lovely lady❣️

[@florallychaotic]

"Hiding in a car.. cause what else is new?" That's it. That's my life.

[@avitalgoldberg-curran4956]

Aaaaaah! Love you!!!! #theaterthursdayfam ♥️🎼 ALSO, wanted to tell u. I GOT CAST IN JOSEPH IN THE TECHNICOLOR DREAM COAT WITH THE CHRISTINE DWYER!!!! LOVE U GIRL ♥️💗💓💞

[@angie_thompson237]

You know just jamming out to hair in the car

[@riskyparkerproductions]

Thanks for coming, Katherine!! Loved the video!! Come back soon!! :) -Pirate Larry

[@Kath_Steele]

Thank YOU, Lauren! You were fantastic, please pass my congrats onto the rest of your wonderful castmates!!

[@Gcherry64]

Lava cakes are the best!!! Also, any other Canadians here confused when Katherine was talking about Smarties and then pulled out Rockets. Just to clarify, Smarties candies in America are called Rockets in Canada and Smarties in Canada are actually similar to MnM's. You're awesome Katherine!!! :D

[@MC-eq5mq]

OMG!! I SAW THEM PERFORM THIS AT BERKELEY REP A FEW YRS AGO!!!! Sooooooo much fun, especially sitting on the stage and in the kiddie pools at one point.

[@Kath_Steele]

Isn't it insane?!?! So fun!!

[@rosie85]

“My mom is corny collins” 😂😂😂 YES...not to mention MEAN GIRLS REFERENCE OMG.......qotd- CHEESECAKE! Like there are too many fabulous things she said in this vid to put in the comment...just....holy crap this vid was good

[@kerahbundy5705]

Favorite dessert: Cheescake. Also, you're outfit for Pirates is goals. So cute!

[@harpercarroll9670]

Cheescake is soo good! Nutella or Oreo... great vid looked so fun😄😄😄

[@Mousy677]

I am...so thrilled about this production of pirates (that I will never see because I live in England. rip); I Really Adore gilbert and sullivan and I'm a sucker for modern adaptations. (it actually reminds me of ohio Shakespeare festival's production of the yeomen of the guard.) also I love.......cheesecake

[@grace.elizabeth.altenburger]

I've always wanted a backstage vlog from Kath!!! (Internal screaming) also, my favorite dessert is cannolis because the RICOTTA WITH THE CREAM CHEASE UGH 😫

[@jessica23claire]

SPORTS! SPORTS! SPORTS! (me during PE class when hiding in the back during dodgeball didn't work and I was forced to hit the ball) And when it comes to dessert, a brownie or chocolate mousse always hits the spot. I'm not really a sweet tooth or a fan of cake.

[@girlonabookshelf4922]

"This is what happens when you let the artsy kids do sports hELP!" The most accurate thing I've ever heard about artsy kids EVER!!

[@baileymadill7666]

Really good super Dark chocolate is my fave!

[@sophie_super_fan229]

My favorite dessert is everything! 😂😍

[@Kath_Steele]

^relatable

[@michaelaalcordo1614]

Your mom is so adorable! ❤️ My favorite dessert is strawberry shortcake!!!! (But seriously pretty much every dessert is amazing 😂) I cant wait for part 2!!

[@sydneypage8054]

This seems like an INCREDIBLE production! What a fun twist on a classic show! Your parents are awesome hehe

[@ronnimcallister3970]

OMG I love these kinds of "In The Life" Vlogs! I mean, you got to see what looks like a super fun show, AND BE in a fantastic show (soooo looking forward to that Backstage video, btw!), and then you got free candy!?! It looks like you have a perfect life, and I say, the more time we all get to spend with you, the better! P.S. If I'm ever a parent, I hope I'm half as cool as your mom! ILYSM!!!

[@reaganbramlish5858]

That opening night party/show looked so fun! And I can't wait for part 2 of your vlog!!

[@gracekrasny3073]

Also I related to the octopus boyfriend thing on an emotional level. I feel u girl

[@charisalexander9480]

Inflatable Octopus is #BoyfriendGoals

[@ElizabethMerritt]

I totally get the "this is what happens when you let arts kids do sports" part LOL!! Yesterday I was at rehearsal for my school play and the basetball game was going on at the same time. We ran down to watch them play, came back, and were questioned what people do at basketball games 😂😂✨✨

[@briancunningham4208]

The woman in the frame at 4:01 seems to be sayin “I love dessert”

[@sitta96]

That seems like such a great show, and to answer your questions it tiramisu❤️😍

[@jamiehood850]

So cool! Hey Early Squad! And absolutely awesome, epic video Kath!

[@petcraz2417]

Oooooh! Do I have to choose?! Let’s see.... ice cream.

[@meganodonnell1379]

I was in Peter and the Starcatcher once! It was incredible

[@vicenteantonionunez347]

Omg I love Aquarius from Hair!!! (And honestly, singing to cast recording in the car? Me, except I can’t drive. It’s more like I sit on my school bus and sing cast recordings, because it’s so loud on the bus that nobody can hear my voice cracks).

[@louisagundeck2728]

My eyes perked up when I saw this notification!!

[@bananabrianna6360]

SNAP CHAT FAM WYA love the vid Katherine!!!

[@sydneymason7536]

Lol “I’m hiding in a car because what else is new!” In many theaters near me Pirates of Penzance has been popular ily Katherine can I explain that #TheatreThursdayFam needs to have a big party 😂😂😂😂 or a broadway show #TheatreThursdayFam

[@rainybopz]

YES THEATRE CULT

[@strawberryknight7983]

I'm in a production of Peter and the Starcatcher right now and your videos have helped me so much!!! You're absolutely amazing!! So happy you made this channel, you make positive and helpful content and it's amazing! Thank you so much!!! ❤️ (Also my favorite dessert is definitely cookies!)

[@alyssacalderon6244]

Pirates Of Penzance was the first show I had a principle role for in high school.

[@annalong3503]

Hahaha your mom is so cool

[@chloe2525]

The premiere looks amazing! You're so lucky that you went 🎉

[@jaxoxob]

Omg love you 💜💜💜💜 just showed you’re videos to one of my friends who’s starting to audition for theatre colleges

[@jessgill1686]

I relate to the thing you said about your friends liking your mum more. Literally my mum works at my school and when my friends see her they sprint over to her, scream her name and give her a ginormous hug will I’m laughing my ass off in the background

[@morvenrenfrew4581]

[@emme1782]

Aww cutie💖(ugh I love your hair]

[@Kath_Steele]

THANK YOU! ❤️

[@leighjob5011]

1. Your outfit was amazing and I love your hair. 2. I like veggie straws, pathetic as that is. 3. I've listened to about 208 musicals/other things that fall into the same general category (operas, song cycles, whatever) and Pirates of Penzance somehow isn't one of them so whoops I better get on that. This revival looks super fun! 4. Your mom seems awesome wow

[@mariafilo2688]

“This is what happens when you let all the arts kids try to do sports please help” 😂😂😂 just summed up my life

Favourite dessert? What I can’t pick ONE But crème brûlée and soufflé pancakes and cheesecakes are up there

[@alifeonlyonthestage]

This looks like such a cool production! And your mom seems awesome! I like a good tiramisu, but I also believe the importance of ice cream can't be overstated. Also, omg, can't wait for part 2! I love me some backstage footage.

[@theeverythingchannel6925]

My favorite desert is brownies!🍫

[@chiarapower8434]

Yaaaaasssss. You are my favorite KZbinr! You have no idea how much you have helped me. Thank you so much!!

[@anasimms1874]

I loved the Smarties part 😂

[@thewordofthenerd4541]

OMG you’d be such a good Mabel 💜

[@Kath_Steele]

AH thank you!!! I want to play her so badly!!

[@evesperling9784]

I was quite confused during the opening of the package until I remembered that you live in the States 😂 in Canada, we call smarties Rockets, and Smarties are their own candy, pretty similar to M&M’s. Hope you have a wonderful run of Into The Woods and that everything goes as smoothly as you can hope for! ❤️

[@gretteepham]

[@ella-ri7pn]

OH MY GOSH KATHERINE! i had the worst slip the other day! so.. i’ve always wanted to play small alison ever since it opened, and when i got an ad for fun home auditions, i nearly fainted! i sent my resume, booked an audition, and talked with the casting director. from the nice words they said about my singing and acting, i was sure i would get the role. but.. i just realized then that the theatre was in california, and i live in a small town fourty five minutes away from toronto! 😂😂

[@char9240]

[@anneblackwood9013]

When I saw this,I was excited (of course), but I was like da like "Wow, the video's kinda long." But then I was really sad that it was over. Btw, I love ice cream.

[@heartsunglassesrry1133]

Currently sobbing watching this video because I miss doing things like this before the world came crashing and burning down
