Theater Kids Be Like

[@MilesMorales827]

The vocal warm up brought a tear to my eye. Bet you’ll make an amazing background tree too!

[@EliseEcklund]

thanks, i'm honored to be the background tree

[@MrHam-fq1gu]

​@@EliseEcklundI have to say, there was someone in our last play who had that reaction and everyone wants them to stop doing theater

[@Watanimates]

@@EliseEcklund Every role is important!

[@Dom-dq8ru]

As a theater kid, I feel very represented in the projects that Elise puts out

[@Down_Fall]

this is so freaking true i was in a play in october and me and my friends went to ihop🤣

[@TheMeggieShow]

Agreed

[@koedinger1]

Yeah like it’s my entire mayor so this was halarious 😆

[@TheCreator-zx4lb]

Yeah

[@Shannonagains]

There are 2 kinds of theatre kid. There’s the t.k who throws a tantrum bcz they don’t have the lead part, and then there is the t.k who has seen every MUSICAL EVER. I’m #2

[@js8303]

As a theatre kid, I can confirm this is exactly how we are

[@EliseEcklund]

me too

[@Down_Fall]

could not say it better myself

[@T4814C]

Yup!

[@PowderChan-qr4ru]

Same

[@DanceWithB3]

Omg same😅😂

[@rasmusjunge4079]

As a theatre kid I can confirm that we are exactly like this and I truly appreciate someone that finally understands us🙏

[@oliviaelderberry9423]

Funny!! 😂😂😂 I'm in theater but I'd say only a few of these things are true for me!

[@Sonikkthehedgehog]

Yeee

[@TheCreator-zx4lb]

Yeah

[@portcullisgames7763]

This is is exactly how we are like, NOT EVEN KIDDING

[@theatre.swiftie22]

Exactlyyyyy😂!!

[@Kureemy]

I remember that in school, my classmates were making a musical. I was the one who hated all of the decisions they made (like casting bad singers as the main characters because they didn’t put up auditions), but never spoke up because I wasn’t the one in charge.

[@justClaya]

As a theater kid who is about to have the opening night of my show tonight, this came at the perfect time and is 100% accurate. Thank you Elise!

[@tomjohnson4922]

hope it went well

[@JustMeandMyPaperDragons]

I had opening night same day!!! What play did you do?

[@CLOUDCRY_WCUE]

I also had one!!!

[@justClaya]

@@JustMeandMyPaperDragons Secret Garden! I played Lily :)

[@justClaya]

@@tomjohnson4922 It went awesome!

[@SoulfulTree]

I’m no theater kid but that didn’t stop me from enjoying this hilarious video. Keep it up!

[@diegovlogging]

as a theatre kid that’s in an upcoming Seussical musical, this is totally 100% accurate.

[@aly_0.1]

that's wild, i'm in an upcoming seussical performance too, lol

[@vicent_doesnt_care]

My first show was suessical kids, so that makes me happy~

[@diegovlogging]

@@vicent_doesnt_care we’re high schoolers doing Seussical JR lmao

[@T4814C]

Same.

[@justClaya]

My first show was Seussical! What role are you? Break a leg!!!

[@sarahstewart7680]

The dog loved your performance so much it had to take a bow!

[@Cr4ving__nachøZ]

the dog was a paid actor

[@vicent_doesnt_care]

That Vibrato is amazing.

[@EliseEcklund]

THANKS

[@MackenzieGraceOfficial]

This is 100% accurate 😂 thank you so much for showing it to the world! 💗

[@ImPolish_]

You being able to do all of these things without even snickering truly is a talent lmao

[@HydroniteTB]

5 seconds in and it’s already very accurate. Had a couple theater kid friends and they said that exact thing in the exact same way, sing songy and all

[@charitymoritz898]

I'm not gonna lie, that vibrato was actually amazing.

[@EliseEcklund]

thank you so much

[@Simply_Barbie]

As a Theatre kid, you are the only person that has us 100% accurate… you literally can’t get better than this 😂😂

[@jordynequals7515]

The dancing to give someone something so simple is 100% accurate (I say this as a theater kid)

[@zachwyles03]

I’m not a theater kid, but MAN THIS A MASTERPIECE!!!😂😂😂

[@teddyyeti]

Same

[@theatrelover2]

I'm a theatre kid, and this is 100% correct

[@k_griffis2278]

As a theater kid, I also feel very amazing that Elise called us out. Wish me luck on Suessical!

[@Lylas_Life_]

This is completely accurate amazing video Elise 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🫶🏻

[@pigglelovesmc]

the apple juice handing was just magnificent never have I seen such beauty

[@depressi0n721]

I think she would make a great background tree 😢😅

[@EliseEcklund]

thanks

[@BoredomEdits-ms7vv]

Ye :D she wont even need a costume

[@portcullisgames7763]

😂

[@rachelcolomb]

The "Sound of Music" bit was actually solid vocals 😶

[@EliseEcklund]

THANK YOU

[@Down_Fall]

true

[@rachelcolomb]

🥰🥰@@EliseEcklund

[@russs7574]

Great video, Elise....love the Sooby-Doo sound effects.

[@darrancoyle8394]

Good to see you, Elise. Hope you and your family are well.

[@iampuzzleman282]

I hope you're having a great holiday. Thanks for all the joy you bring to everybody

[@xRandom_Bozo]

So much talent elise. Outstanding. Still bummed that you didnt get the Shrek role though

[@Rosagave]

Thank you for representing us theatre kids!!!💀

[@stephenclaridge5654]

0:10 Love how there isnt a background tree number 1 2 3 and 4

[@yoshe2]

as a band kid, choir kid, and theatre kid, i see this as an absolute win

[@zg09131]

I play guitar so I want to try to make this joke for other fellow guitarists to relate to. Me: Practice makes perfect! I can totally get this! Also me when my brain doesn't listen to what I said 0.001 seconds ago: How dare you play the wrong chord! Your darn fingers are in the wrong spot. Play the right fret! Strings are out of tune, let me just tune it back. Oops! String breaking time! Tell me, relatable?

[@crombo9399]

heyy same!

[@HarrysIrishPrincess]

I was in choir for about 4 years in school

[@sarainguyen5136]

So true!! And as a theatre kid doing a Lin-Manuel Miranda medley and a Lion King musical, you did a good job representing us 😂

[@lilieg9135]

That dog was truly a great actor. Also i think you will make a great tree :D❤

[@Imnothere349]

The 30 minute presentation hit me hard!!! Also this is literally me especially the MOM LOOK WHAT I LEARNED AT REHEARSAL and then I fail to do so

[@Someoneontheplanet658]

The dance number is so accurate 🤣🤣🤣

[@FlapackandGregsPS5]

100% accurate especially the Hamilton and defying gravity ✨✨

[@flamen8643]

Being a theater kid, I can confirm the accuracy of this video

[@Watanimates]

I'm a newer theater kid (I've only done one play) and the only one that relates to me is 1:52 Edit: it's 3 months later and now all of these relate to me

[@evelyn-elf]

2:19 (DDLC flashbacks)

[@I_like_food101]

Ok but why did I actually relate to the Hamilton part 😂 I'm the homeschooled theater kid who has to SIGN UP for a play and the type to just already memorize all of my character's songs and then just practice songs from other musicals you will probably never even do 🥲

[@beatrixjackson4334]

every single word you just said is literally me 😅

[@Ping-a-ling]

Don’t forget memorising every word i the script

[@Lylamckee09]

You just described me

[@Sam_on_YouTube]

I had friends who went to high school with Lynn Manuel Miranda, one of whom is a theater kid and they probably knew each other. We probably would have gone to the same parties... if I had been cool enough to go to parties... 🎉

[@infnitvlt618]

Fake comments part 1

[@andrelmor]

You are the spitting image of my therapist! Now I go to the sessions and laugh at her. Thank you

[@seronimo__7735]

I was theatre kid adjacent in high school (pit orchestra ftw) and I don't think the theatre kids geeked out about Hamilton. They were much more eager to do impromptu presentations on obscure musicals you've never heard of.

[@elliotgoldman3862]

I feel seen

[@Sonikkthehedgehog]

2:11 SHE FINALLY SMILED

[@Anime_girlie201]

omg ur actually right

[@AutoAutoAutoTWINS]

OOOOO SHE HAS TO EXPLAINNNN

[@TeamSssniperwolfandlexiR]

As a theatre kid, this is 100% accurate

[@Felixsfavouritefruityogurt]

As someone going to be in a musical this is exactly how theatre kids are

[@RockyThe3rd]

Yo, that kid at the very end was IMPRESSIVE! Elise did alright I guess

[@h20friend17]

She smiled in this video! 2:13 😂

[@shaniavázquez]

This is the most accurate representation of a theater kid! Coming from a theater kid herself 😅

[@CaptsuneMiku]

2:18 THE DDLC BACKGROUND IS EVERYTHING

[@crybaby-2025]

1:20 YAY WICKED SLAY!!!

[@Urlocaltheaterkid_gworl]

YESS

[@Taytayoya]

Yes, and😊

[@SparksFly.1389]

2:11 No, this can't be... SHE SMILED! Ladies and Gentleman I Announce ELISE *SMILED AND LAUGHED*

[@adecentlygoodname]

My day is complete. Thank you for this highly entertaining, highly heartfelt short movie. The first time I tried to get a a role in a play and become a theatre kid, I got cast as ensemble

[@Brook4676]

This made my day tysm Elise!

[@annabass4223]

1:02 My hero

[@Amy-zr5mn]

It's so cute that your dog bowed at the end! Oh, and you did a good job on your part, too.

[@Bowinwj]

Yeah I know a theatre kid, Elsie just knows how to represent people so well

[@Vibinwchloe2221]

The Harry Styles cutout in the background at vocal warm up😂😂😂

[@Robloxplayer1p]

2:27 that was the best thing I ever heard in my freaking life

[@adrianking4380]

I’m a theater kid and this is so accurate

[@mettaton-x]

As a theater person I relate

[@EliseEcklund]

glad u can relate

[@thechornboy]

YES!! Thank you Elise for making this ✨masterpiece✨! Too acurate!

[@greghannibal]

Elise has the most wholesome cursing.

“I’m warming up “ **SKREATCHES VOICE!**

[@dragonsblood23]

Never forget The Cup Song that someone would attempt in between rehearsals

[@iampuzzleman282]

Christmas comes early with this video thank you. Always get happy when I see a video from you

[@DancerLovesBooks]

No but actually I’m a dancer and I do that exact same thing in the kitchen. Every step is ballet. So true

[@Life_Of_Abbyy]

Apparently, my schools production is having the title “SHREK THE MUSICAL” as 2024’s production plan and will be performed during the concert 😂

[@VacantKey]

I know so many theater kids that this is just too accurate

[@misshollis7547]

As a theater kid, I can confirm that this exactly how we act all the time

[@triciaizzo4825]

As a stage crew kid with many theater kid friends I can confirm they do this also do people know that trees are not people unless They have a singing role and there not just there to be a tree right

[@superJ5858]

As someone who does theatre but not musical theatre I can confirm this is why I don’t do musical theatre. While it’s mainly because I can’t sing. But also this.

[@Sunnehthesilleh]

Dont forget the random theatre kids singin Hamilton, mean girls n Heather's through the hallways

[@StarGaming-mz9ni]

As a theater kid who is in two plays right now this is dead accurate

[@dannypineappleade5338]

1:40 whaaaaaat we would never

[@MrChopsticktech]

Your videos are fantastic! You are so unique, you stand out from everybody else!

[@otterwithadarkside4422]

As a theatre kid with a show coming up, this is so relatable!

[@SlayBunnies123]

2:31 I love this because I was in the sound of music and I sang the high part. I was Gretl in the high school play!

[@Rainy36]

THEATER KID FOREVER!!

[@Baltskakis]

As a theatre kid, I agree:,]

[@mikecoffee100]

I wish I had a friend like elise 😄

[@mgbfun8600]

Thank you this is so true I am a theater kid and this is what theater kids do!!

[@alt-888]

As a theater kid that literally had our closing show today, I was like "Oh shit wait do I do that?"

[@AGwashere_13112]

2:12 SHE SMILED! SHE IS SO PRETTY SMILING! (she is also stunning not smiling but she looks so good when she’s smiling too ❤)

[@uuno_cre]

as a theater kid i think this is a masterpiece

[@HarmonyMoonbeam024]

I’ve never been in theater before, but I SWEAR that is basically a more unhinged version of me 😂

[@DanicaMcComack_Jesusfreak]

This is the best thing I’ve seen today!🤣❤️

[@rowan404]

2:18 brings back memories of the Decembers I spent doing work packets while sitting on gym floor...

[@EthanSchmethan]

As someone who went to high school, I can confirm they do indeed have theater kids.

[@MuzanJackson341]

yes. so true 0:50

[@GrandPappyGeorge]

As a theatre kid, this is both 100% accurate and somehow completely inaccurate at the same time. At least I’m not a Swiftie theatre kid wants to act out the Eras Tour or whatever.

[@GrandPappyGeorge]

We also have all the Wicked memorabilia and spend our time backstage making a weird death version of all the songs and talking about Shrek. We are so fun.

[@TillyTortilla0216]

I'm not a theater kid but I'm addicted to Hamilton

[@EliseEcklund]

theater kid at heart
