Meant to Be Yours Performance - Heathers: the Musical (JD)

[@WillowVee]

The moving door idea is GENIUS for this, JD physically cornering Veronica at one point really gives this the tension it needs!

[@jackcip]

All thanks to our director! The stuff he thinks of to make scenes pop is crazy!

[@aniaacw4497]

I’m sorry is NOBODY gonna talk about your energy as JD? The emphasis on the manic behavior, even down to the way he sings in such an aggressive but lovesick way, it gives me chills. Great job.

[@jackcip]

thank you so much! nailing the energy was one of the things I stressed a lot while practicing. I was really trying to find a good balance between being convincing and being insane, and I think I got it 😅

@@jackcip It was perfect! I was waiting for the moment you start panting but it didn't happen. Great voice :D

[@jackcip]

@@miguelquinteros5094 I start panting once I walk offstage 😅

[@miguelquinteros5094]

@@jackcip JAJAJAJA 🤣 i was getting excited when the other song started but the video ended xd! You reminded me I wanted to buy a coat just like yours too 😂

[@jackcip]

@@miguelquinteros5094 Those trench coats are honestly so nice to wear even though I would never wear one in public 😅

[@jonna8016]

this is absolutley fantastic. ive seen about a hundred versions of this song and its rare that it still gets me as much as it did the first time i saw it but holy shit. the way J.D is played is genuinely so unervering to the point where its uncomfortable to watch and its Amazing. definetly one of the best meant to be yours I've seen.

[@jackcip]

thank you so much oh my gosh!!!

[@sleepybasil]

oh my god the door concept is so cool. i love the way they use it

[@jackcip]

straight up 😤

[@Itspokepal]

Dude you were amazing! That scene felt so real. Props to the director. Your vocals were amazing. I was worrying about your vocal cords the whole time though. The fact that you were able to still sound good even though you were yelling and screaming the whole time

[@jackcip]

Thank you so much! I am mainly trying to tap into the same sort of technique Alex Brightman uses in Beetlejuice, i forget the exact name tbh 😅 It definitely is a LOT of work tho and I can still work on mastering it!

[@Itspokepal]

@@jackcip Keep it up!

[@AltKaycee]

Absolutely love how JD was portrayed in this. Heathers need its own Broadway show and we found the JD for it also I love the door idea, and acting on both sides of JD and Veronica! Awesome work!

[@jackcip]

Not sure if I'm ready for Broadway yet 😅Thank you so much tho!!!!

[@AltKaycee]

@@jackcip I think your ready! Your JD was incredible!!

[@kane_heath]

holy shit? this has got to be one of my favorite interpretations of this song. You see the less than perfect performance space yet it has been so perfectly utilisied. Props to you, Mister JD for this performance and your director and crew.

[@Scaruwingl]

JD taking his hands of and on the door was REALLY good, i love the energy that you gave him and the "insane" and "slowly losing sanity" act was amazing! I wonder how veronica kept balance on that door, i would've fell off instantly 😅

[@damienvieres]

THAT WAS AMAZING! this is my favorite song in the entire musical and no matter how many people i''ve seen perform it, the different versions always astound me. Well done!

[@jackcip]

Thank you so much!!!

[@elidatkitty1694]

0:50 I WAS NOT EXPECTING HER TO SOUND THAT PANICKED LMAO but tbh it adds on to the stress of the situation

[@somerandompersonhi2028]

This is now my favourite version of meant to be yours

[@invadermaythe1st]

Bro?? You make an AMAZING JD 💖💖💖

[@invadermaythe1st]

Ugh the way you portray emotions is beautifulll I adore this 🥺💖💖

[@jackcip]

@@invadermaythe1st thank you so freaking much omg 😭

[@invadermaythe1st]

@@jackcip You’re super welcome!! I really hope you get more views on this because it is honestly amazing 🥰🙏💖💖💖

[@snoopydumb7473]

Excellent! You have a great voice! Also, the door idea is genius !

[@jackcip]

thank you so much!!! it means a lot to me :)

[@tannaclark5084]

OMG THIS IS AMAZING!! what a voice! Also the use of the moving door was amazing!

[@hope7754]

this is soooo good!! i really enjoyed your version! the moving closet's door is something new and cool, too i really liked how J.D is shown here, very realistic

[@grace8295]

My favorite JD is Jamie Muscato.. and you, Sir? You gave the same vibe Jamie did with your singing and acting. really well done to you and Veronica's actress! *edited, i just realized this is your post and channel. great job!

[@jackcip]

thank you so much! I was really leaning into Muscatos JD during my performance, glad it payed off!

[@grace8295]

@@jackcip I see! Great job! 👏🎉 You're really talented, btw. You did well with the shifts in the emotions between the verses and chorus, and you really portrayed JD's increasingly unhinged behavior in this song. not to mention, very powerful vocals!^^

[@АлисаБровко-ъ3о]

Absolutely loved the idea with door choreography, but laughed out loud at the end at stage adjustment in character. You know, some maniacs take locks of hair from their victims, some take personal items, but JD... he took the whole room closet.

[@runchpanda8079]

Amazing! The voice, the actors and the door idea was incredible! Good job 🤩🙌

[@emaalexis]

your JD is amazing omg, you put so much emotion into the song!

[@theatricalgirlie]

This really captures the effect of JD cornering Veronica in the closet. This should be put into a movie. You gave the true emotions of JD. Bravo 🙌

[@jackcip]

Thank you so much! I mean, if they ever want to do a Heathers movie (of the musical) I'm one call away....

[@Lee.Smells]

omg the conviction of your role?? Amazing! The use of the stage? Brilliant! keep this up

[@jackcip]

thanks obama 😍

[@Lee.Smells]

I'm friends with Biden, I'll secure a gig for you at the white house (Biden kins Martha D)

[@ahyy.__]

The BAM BAM BAM broooooo yesssssss the amount of energy and aggression.

[@jackcip]

doing that with breath support is actually one of the hardest musical theatre moments for me 😭

[@ahyy.__]

@Jack Cipriani that was you preforming it!? You did PHENOMENAL!!!!! (Other then broadway) I have never heard a JD be so aggressive toward it. And that's exactly JD's character, he is psychotic right. You portrayed him PERFECTLY. I was so suprised to FINALLY hear someone nail it. If Broadway is something you'd love to pursue in the future, you definitely have the passion. Amazing work!

[@staryy_kk]

KDNSHDBSB UR SUCH A GOOD JD I LOVE HOW YOU PORTAYED HIM

[@Cloud9berries]

Obsessed with the door technique and damn the growls, just like muscato 😍

[@nknae3115]

I actually love this, the stage setup and the casting seem so good. The singing voices are phenomenal . I love it!

[@aliveavrillav]

This is really AWESOME! sounds really good

[@ericachristine_xo]

You sound GREAT!!

[@Candycrashxoxo]

That’s was literally so fucking good omg😭 you did so well

[@Veronicasgf]

YOUR SUCH A AMAZING JD! THE PERFORMANCE IS SO GOOD

[@yourstruly.hannah]

Are we not gonna talk about heather chandlers voice?! Omgg

[@abstractfriends6722]

This is awesome

[@fishparti]

Great performance! Only problem that I found was JD having his back to the audience a lot. The audience needs to see your face expressions, especially if you are singing a very dramatic part

[@stcago19]

Top tier performance

[@zuvainafaisal]

GN if I was Veronica's actress I would've caught feelings LMAO Loved the performance! Keep it up ♡

i am very very in love with this

[@brielletaylor_]

did your vocal cords feel ok after this

[@jackcip]

they were on life support

[@brielletaylor_]

@@jackcip i feel the pain if u want u can look into "false cord growling/screaming"

@@brielletaylor_ that’s actually what I do most of the time I sing this song it’s just a lot 😭
