RSC: Stalling For Time

[@charlleedodson]

for those of you who don't inderstand, the stall is to add comic relief and allow the people backstage (costume changers/props) the opportunity to prepare for act 2.

[@robotfists]

Damn! I never knew Reed could do all of those things! That throat thing is crazy cool! And seeing this whole 'stall for time' scetch makes me want to see them live even more!

[@EndlessVox]

"I don't care if your twenty I don't want to hear you using that language young man." I accidently spit up my drink at that part!

[@Feare909]

"We're a lot more talented when you've had a few drinks."

[@joroserocks]

three people have NO SENSE OF HUMOR AT ALL. these are great! i saw them at the new vic theater in nyc, and they were spectacular. THANKS FOR POSTING!!!!!!! :D

[@VTPPGLVR]

dude, the fire actually touched his tongue, man!! (u can see some flame leap from it) man, he sure is the guy u want at all your parties!!

[@SoulboundNun]

I watched the Hamlet part of RSC during class. It was hilarious. I remember that during the fire eating scene I clapped when the audience clapped b/c I was so shocked by it, but stopped after the first few claps remembering that I was at class and not there. A few of my friends caught me clapping. It was funny. X]

[@Falynsgir]

OH GOD!!!!!!!!! I remember doing this play back in High School. Long live Miss Anderson's class production of RSC!!!!!!!! We were probably the best cast in the world. Or at least at that school. Clarke Central High School.

[@mordooraq]

I love these guys! I love the stalling for time its hilarious :D thanks for posting this :)

[@Corina6235]

"What? Is it a crime to take someone's bag?" "YES!" "Oh everything I do is wrong! Why don't you take away my birthday!!" lol man these guys are hilarious!! XD

[@MusicLover366]

Adam's like a teenager and the other two act like parents, lol

[@katharinefitzgerald7667]

i love how the camera man isn't the slightest bit concerned

[@azulretro]

Que genial, me encantaria estar en inglaterra para verlos, no se hablar ingles y entiendo muy poco pero soy actor de teatro y conosco las obras del Shakespeare. Espero en un futuro no muy lejano trabajar la comedia como lo hacen ustedes. Atte. Eduardo Delgado

[@jennarink11]

LOL This video makes me laugh every-time I watch it!!! Gotta love Adam, "Now I know why some animals eat their young!" LMAO!!!

[@lilpnkstrawberry]

OMG I got to help with this play twice at my school :D I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!!! It's so funny :D

[@MidwesternDiva]

blowing out the marshmallow was a great way to close the first act. as a theatre person, I loved that.

[@KATTALNUVA3]

How does he do that thing with his neck? This is pure gold!

[@abecedarian123]

he is so talented!! so many differnt things!!!

[@Timamalao]

4:29 Now THAT is talent, ladies and gentlemen! :)

[@TheTrueGreenDragon]

Adam: I'll kill the camera man I swear. Austin: I don't care. We have five other camera man. lol can't stop laughing ( passes out on floor)

[@rosaleem]

i've always wondered what was written on the flashcard with the sonnets. it must be funny, lol.

[@WallScreamer]

@taz18mythbuster He was. It says in the appendices of the script that before joining the RSC he was a clown for Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey. Nice call.

[@marumaru2015]

"We're always much more talented after you've had a few drinks." lol

[@vverewolfchick]

I love that part! "Ill kill the cameraman i swear Ill kill him!" "I dont care i dont care we got 5 others i dont care"

[@hearthealer]

it's part of the act...they do the same thing everytime, saw them live and Adam lay down on across my 4 female teachers laps, clung to them then emptied out our passports from one of the purses...we were in London, visiting from Singapore

[@starrbeatlesqueen]

Love Adam's scream at 3:48!

[@MidwesternDiva]

It's probably for some logistical reason; maybe they have to do a prop change backstage. It's also possible that he's just a really talented guy (fire-eating, accordion, etc.) and they want him to get to show off.

[@Kruezoraxe]

@PearPeople7 There's enough kids in the audience the odds are pretty good. Plus, I'm sure they have plenty of backups ready throughout the show whenever they want audience participation.

[@kingofkards91]

I have alot of friends who are fire eaters so this scene makes me laugh so much! ACtually, fire eating was quite common in Shakespeare's day.

[@falsetto81]

I don't care if you're 20, I don't want you using that language. Love 'em!

[@PaleoRAS]

it's an entertaining intermission

[@11polkadot1]

lololol- i love this stuff was there ever a reason -like an actual reason- that he didn't want to preform Hamlet, though?

[@NameTaken1191]

The bald guy actually went to clown school

[@PrincessLydia]

NameTaken1191 Ringling Brothers/ Barnum and Bailey Clown School, to be exact!

[@Kruezoraxe]

I never noticed that Martin had a bag too

[@cavewomanbrain]

"why don't you just take away my birthday?" rotflmao!!!!!!

[@Moondustfingers]

-austin and adam run through the door- Adam: AAaaahh!! XD

[@MidwesternDiva]

@MJlover3307 There's nothing written on the card. I've been to a production of this before and it's just blank.

[@atheatergeek]

Can you put up all of Hamlet? Thank you!!

[@MidwesternDiva]

@Highlander1G At a production I went to, his part did magic tricks and told jokes!

[@taylaurrobertson]

That guy makes me want to learn the accordion XD

[@rosyyaoi2]

I loved this part XD soooooooooooo funny

[@Garyinspired95]

they say that when adam is complaining and there are thinking about how they're going to do the play, it's very soft when the say it, but it's deffinitly there!

[@eternalife14]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! *wink* luvv it!!!

[@polkadot6287]

I highly doubt that Adam really ran out to the airport... probably just stayed in the lobby and then the backstage...

[@samandal007]

Could put up the comedies?

[@Tinkerbird]

"It's got ideas & stuff..." lol

[@newsieluver]

I saw Austin and 2 other guys do the Bible one, I wish it was Adam and 2 other guys! Adam FTW!

[@adamhutton2001]

Camra man is like i dont give one

[@munson0523]

I WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S ON THE CARD!!!

[@NameTaken1191]

Does anyone know what the card actually says? Was anyone watching this there?

[@182kindasick]

hahaha silly Adam... always trying to go to Rio ^_^

[@trueimperfection]

RE: the throat thing - you need to hit the right part of your throat. It took me a while to work out. Try about half-way between your chin and neck, and about a centimetre in from your jawline. I'll warn you in advance - it *really* hurts!

[@ObsessedwithZelda2]

I wonder what was actually written on that card...

[@hlapurocciel]

Desmond?

[@Check1it2out]

Mmmm- makes me want marshmallows now

[@Garyinspired95]

any one else here them say, "ya, and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern-no wait they have thier own play." ? cause i DID! thats my favorite play of all time! Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead! from Hamlet, woot!

[@starrbeatlesqueen]

How the heck does Reed do that?

[@JamesBlond000]

@Kholdstarezero I'm not a fan of his, either, but Emmerich is the one having Sony distribute pamphlets to schools promoting his movie as fact.

[@justin22timberlake]

that's Adam Long. but agreed he's awesome =)

[@MakoKitten]

start at 3:22 and listen close.

[@howmanybeansmakefive]

I'm Doing A Production Of This For A-Level Drama, And I Play Adam, I'm Sooo Glad, He's Like The Funniest Character

[@JamesBlond000]

"Shakespeare didn't write Hamlet, did he?" Is Adam secretly Roland Emmerich?

[@newsieluver]

Um Desmond and his Jerry Guy

[@Calli4318]

@dcparty1901 i love that too lol

[@hlapurocciel]

Who were the two other guys?

[@SilverMage412]

@PearPeople7 Probably not. They are really good at improv

[@simonkawasaki4229]

As always, Coriolanus is skipped over, without major discussion.

[@hlapurocciel]

Do you mean Dominic?

[@KATTALNUVA3]

I know that, I saw it in school. I just think it's still funny.

[@ScarletSheppard]

I want to marry Adam, but apparently that positions been filled! *sigh*

[@junaids23]

yeah if it had been adam be the only one on stage entertaining ppl and not gone away, it wudve been better .haha

[@Drowninginantimatter]

Any evidence for that?

[@MayKProductions]

2:49

[@SlyToms]

Shakespeare didn't write hamlet :P

[@averythesuperhero]

Regan Hicks Hamlet wrote Shakespeare.

[@newsieluver]

Dameon sorry.

[@newsieluver]

[@Gabbymadd22]

Is it a crime to take someone's bag? Lol!!

[@firewalker303]

[@newsieluver]

[@hlapurocciel]

Well yes, Reed is bald. :)

[@KATTALNUVA3]
