"how do they change so fast?" "By literally ripping their clothes off"

[@Im-at-yo-door]

Ok but true, because we go from sepia tones to color in the Wizard or Oz so we’re gonna have a brown and white Velcro dress over Dorothy’s main dress so she can just rip it off

[@Inky_Squ1d]

The power of ensemble is wearing three pairs of pants under a dress so you don't need to fight to the death to get a changing curtain in the dressing room

We had some stage crew be prepared with the ogre ears and gloves, it was stressful and of course we got green on Fiona’s dress and our own costumes but hey, we made it in time always!

OK that is true but our school has done Shrek before and there is actually a LONG time from the end of the Duloc song to the start of the Fiona song. After the dancers exit Shrek and Donkey come in and do a whole conversation. And Teen Fiona isn’t on stage until a third of the way in the FIona song. So that is why they didn’t make a those costumes that could be changed in seconds.

[@BOOKLORD1111]

There’s a kid in my class that’s like this and when he sings in class (I mean belting out broadway and Eurovision tunes) the next day he’s just like “ sry in on vocal rest so u won’t hear me singing today” and we are all like “THANK GOD!”

[@0.-.0]

Because they're focused on Elsa. It's like half a moment in the show but you're able to see it 100x times so it looks awkward to you. Jfc

[@Nico.di.Angelo128]

@@0.-.0 no, the choreo could’ve just been a lot more interesting. Possibly some kind of lyrical/contemporary style dance with jumps on the cymbal crashes? It would create a much more dynamic scene than five people waving their arms around. Then you could place some ensemble in the background so they can do vocals

I was in Shrek the musical at my school a few years back and for the fiona transition they used the other fiona (we were double casted) for the before part. The issue was there was about a 1'2" difference in height between the two so when the first cast would go, fiona would go from really tall to really short and vise versa for the other cast

[@EricWarren-r5y]

21:08 this is my best friend Anya every single time we finish a show. I remember once we did the show “Narnia, Voyage of the dawn treader” and she played reepicheep. After her big death scene she would come back stage and literally collapse onto us and be like “never stop acting never stop” while crying, KNOWING we had scenes coming up, which would make US cry because we are all depressed anxiety ridden teenagers and her crying makes us all cry because she is like the baby of every show we do.
