I liked Empty chairs at empty tables a normal amount, but then I saw the choreography with the candles and that song now owns my life

[@hollyludvigsen6763]

And when it’s sung by Chris Mccarrell... even better

no shade to the others but you're literally one of the only channels that do these vids that don't just pick the same 10 musicals to talk about and I love that, absolutely impeccable taste my dude. (still, those 10 musicals are great lmao)

It’s so so so so good. I keep the professional pro shot that was on PBS saved so I can just rewatch it lol

[@iamgroot2397]

Why is nobody talking about Andrea Masacet’s riff at the end of don’t lose your head? Like it was so CLEAR

[@larmurph318]

I love Chris, but I literally had no clue he'd played Marius, now I've got clips to look up

Jane Krakowski was 48 during She Loves Me and she could still do THAT

Jane Krakowski is an icon and national treasure

The dance break in sixteen going on seventeen makes me lose my mind

im not experienced in many broadway shows despite being a fan of broadway for like 3 years and this video has brought me so much joy

[@isabelle8686]

i just think that gavin creel is so **CHEF’S KISS** AHHHH

I think about the Moonlight line in A Strange Loop so often, it’s highkey one of the most stunning lyrics in musical theatre history

[@lil_cap]

Macasaet is a legend in the making

[@harriett9810]

After the all you wanna do clip I had to pause and cry I have watched it so many times and I still cry ugh who gave her the right to be so talented

[@alibali69]

ill never forgive beetlejuice for ruining (at least temporarily) sophia anne caruso's voice. no one involved realized the damage they were causing??? really???????

[@Molly-vs3lv]

Just spent half an hour looking for this compilation cause I just played guitar for We Are the Tigers and remembered it was in a compilation that mentioned pre-Broadway A Strange Loop and gave a moment to our family friend who was in Holiday Inn and did the tap-dancing-jump-roping bit, and it was so worth it this is still the best "musical theatre moments that" compilation on KZbin

[@mialevi1341]

Omg in the next video you have to include the part of POTO where Christine, Erik and Raoul all sing different lyrics all at the same time and making it seem like a real argument between the 3 of them.

[@kaaiitlin]

as someone who tried to learn tap (and failed miserably) the tap number WHILE JUMPING ROPE?>!?!?!?! made me cry actual tears of no talent because i couldn't even imagine

[@KureruElric]

i legit GASPED when i saw the tap number while jumping rope! i've been tapping for almost my whole life that shit is HARD enough as is but throw in the goddam rope i'm LOSING IT those women are QUEENS

[@miriamt.hamermesh8797]

COMPLETELY agree about larry owens... i saw him sing being alive 2 years ago and i think about it literally every day... no other performance of that song has lived up to my memory of larry singing it

[@trinitybair7516]

I went back and forth but you're getting a like for that Holiday Inn clip one of my favorite shows for no reason other than that number and Blue Skies

the second strange loop clip made me fully gasp, pause, and go back to listen again holy SHIT. how have i never heard of this show

[@katbarbera3527]

i love you describing aaron as “a funky lil white man”

[@liz_anne]

about carrie, the actors in the original stratford/bway are IMMACULATE, just the reason why it is so hated is primarily about the set design, not the actors.

[@joylaine3055]

I think it is Very Much Worth Mentioning that Jane Krakowski was 49 when she performed that choreo....,,.,.,.,what a queen

[@celestelalianna7276]

patina miller is a LEGEND and she has my heart

yas Carrie the musical originally opening number! we stan

[@mariferpena4537]

I prefer the version of sixteen going on seventeen from the original movie rather than the live version just becasue the difference of ages makes it look kinda weird, but don't get me wrong the choreo... chefs kiss

[@catrin1788]

I never knew that chris was in les mis. my life is complete. i will literally never shut up about this

cannot stress how much i would love you to include the west end staged concert version of empty chairs...i've listened to it an unhealthy amount his voice is PERFECT for marius

[@mayam-f9697]

Okay but if you’re gonna put in Sixteen Going on Seventeen you can’t ignore the best version aka the Miscast 2015 version with Laura Benanti and Christopher Fitzgerald. I literally watch it at least once a month for a serotonin boost

[@FidesAla]

I feel like musicals have sort of split into this... on one side, Great Comet/Hadestown/Six/Life On Mars sort of thing that just sort of retreads territory that used to be avant-garde but isn't really all that avant-garde anymore but it still *feels* avant-garde to people who want to *feel* avant-garde which, these prove, that feeling is separate from actually *being* new (when Rent did it, it was new, and Hair before that... Waiting for Godot and things like that also belong to this category, I think, and I would put Into the Woods, and most of Sondheim, here too...); And on the other side, this "classic-of-classic-of-classic" feeling, Gershwin, Hello Dolly, My Fair Lady, big elaborate revivals of all those kinds of things that have those people who can do those amazing dance things, yes, (like the She Loves Me clip here, and also Daniel Radcliffe in HTSIB), but like... you *can have all of that with a newer style of thing...* And then the like... plot, character, emotion musicals, things like Les Miz, things that have more depth, like... Les Miz itself still gets play because it's Les Miz, but the only thing people talk about with Anastasia is Ramin's belt at the end, the only time people talk about Jesus Christ Superstar anymore is the belting, no one talks about Aida, I mean I guess because these things are 10+ years old, but there aren't a lot of new musicals that have that kind of ... wholeness that these things have, to me at least... or new books, movies, anything that has it... which is why I'm focusing on 2.5D instead of western media nowadays I guess. I feel like you could make a chart of like... I'm struggling to find words to label the axes, but I'm seeing the "classic-of-classic-of-classic" things in one corner, Hadestown and Hair in the opposite corner, Rent and Les Miz together in one of the remaining corners, Phantom and Wicked sort of half-way between the Rent/Les Miz corner and the Classic corner, Sondheim halfway between the Rent/Les Miz corner and the Hadestown/Hair corner... maybe Elisabeth would be the exact center, or maybe it's closer to the Classic--LesMiz axis, but closer to the Hadestown/Hair point than Phantom and Wicked are. Anyway, western theater lovers should give 2.5D a chance (anime-style stage plays in Japan). If you like things in the Rent/Les Miz corner, I feel like that sphere has more to offer in that corner nowadays... I guess you could call it degrees of abstraction vs. realism. Two different versions of what "abstraction" could mean. fff this is too long already, I'll stop. But each category is the extreme of abstraction or realism in one axis, and right in the center of the other (like, a philosophical realism...?) I mean, all of these works are unique, I shouldn't try to sort them.
