You know what the worst thing is, the baby crying.

[nm78899]

[bugpal]

I'd rather watch the walls fall down then listen to that %#&!! crying baby all night. DON'T TAKE YOUR BABIES TO THIS KIND OF THING! IT'S NO OKAY!!

[smazdayz]

[allen78331]

It seems like Toby from Paranormal Activity was there at 1:17...

[IWANTSPINKLES]

[surayzee]

[bking890]

Well their theatre careers probably will not progress much after this shit. What bunch of fuck ups!

[EpitaphAbi]

[micaelao7]

[M40A3Affliction]

LMFAO FAIL.

[wtfisasnuggie1]

1:16 i've seen a girl in exorcism movie do that exact same thing. XD

[ONcontrolled1]

That awkward moment when peter pan flys to wendys house drunk.

[DJLOPEZ08]

[DJAbeClements]

[Brainstrain]

:23 "That's fucked up". hahhahahahahaha

[guatewalker]

jajaja ke chido!



[rikkuuzumaki13]

I love how the 2nd Peter Pan starts dancing at the end xD

[Kari166]

Whoever was in charge of set should've gotten into a lot of trouble. Someone could've gotten hurt, the set wasn't properly anchored down at all.

[pavito9lindo]

why the f*k does everyone start clapping? idiots!

[PPoaPP]

@pavito9lindo Because they're trying to be supportive. They saw that something went wrong and then appluaded when they tried to fix it, spurring them on. They weren't being rude. Silence would make the situation even worse.

[Kari166]

@pavito9lindo, it wasn't rude at all.

[brokendoll3842]

OH MY GOD

WHOA

[BigThangsPoppinMayne]

i've never seen a fat person get up a chair n run tht fast

[darreyl102]

[sualabama]

sweet little people :) keep on flying!

[sualabama]

sweet little people :) keep on flying!

[XanimeXaddicted]

haha i was in a the audience that night i remember it

[shotgunfun00]

[elbuenbeto666]

LOL... Yeah, shit happens. I bet you guys did a good job in the end. :]

[RocketBooster344]

33 people were in that play

[Pirouettedancer90]

bahahahahaha! omg, you guys are such troopers! 

[AirzelGekisho]

He's climbin in your windows...

messin your high school play up...

[chichigirrl2]

@AirzelGekisho

omg ROFL!!

[MrJonZap]

you guys are not very good improvisers... when I was in high school our director had us improvise to any and all sorts of situations hahahaha one time he had us improvise to babies crying in the audience, phones ringing, props missing, scenery falling, wrong music, people forgetting lines, it was a lot of fun!! Let's just say we were ready for anything that could go wrong hahaha

[AndHoldTheMayo]

@MrJonZap Do you want a medal?

[ShinsengumiGirl]

It is I peter pan! Oh shit your window!

[NYCBlonde]

Brilliant, thanks SO much for posting this! These things happen, guys, it's part of the fun of live theater--its unpredictability. Kudos to you guys for keeping a sense of humor and soldiering on. I am still giggling. Hilarious!

Exorcist Peter FTW!

[Whoaguys87]

Did anyone notice the dog in the beginning?!?! Bahahaha

[blackpanama428]

My theatre teacher told us about this! EPIC hilarity!... no offense to the person it happened to!

[TeenAngst73]

it's like paranormal activity!

[ThePreenal]

Lol....

[JokerSequeida1]

wow

[ohn0shedidnt]

peter pan....

EXORCIST STYLE

[Stincil]

So muchfor those non-union stage hands.

[Allaroundstuff]

1:16...the bed explodes.

i love how peter was bracing for flight and well...the bed exploded instead

[brotherman154]

That really sucks. I was saying "Curtain Down" just like a true SM.

[MPL029]

um..did they even bother rehearsing how to fly?

[chrisjmcg]

The girl getting yanked out of the bed - at first it looked like that scene from 'Paranormal Activity" .. LMAO.

But hey, you guys handled it all pretty well. My brother is in the theatre and he has had his share of things go wrong, but this takes the cake. :-)

[kranktank]

The show must go on. At least it's not Spider-man TOTD.

[fanguk2]

Kudos to you guys going on with the show though, you stuck in there and brought it back!

[egchcge]

@EmperorAckbar but y babies?!

[EmperorAckbar]

i hate babies SOOO MUCHHHH!!! actually in my high school for one of our musicals two people fell 35 feet from the scaffolding. one was fine but the other one was messed up in the leg. at least she got a handicapped parking permit and a permanent pass out of P.E.!!

[EmperorAckbar]

i hate babies SOOO MUCHHHH!!!

[Cheesemaster890]

hahahahahaha i dont care if its fake hahahahaha that was freakin hilarious!

[cobwebkid]

@Cheesemaster890 whats fake?

[JillStrif]

fake theres a string attached to her

[cobwebkid]

@JillStrif Your stupid its was there for a play and no real flying

[fanguk2]

@JillStrif This comment is full of dumb. +1

[RayPointer]

Obviously the set was a problem on at least two levels. First, it is period incorrect.

It looks more 1940s/1950s than 19th Century, which is the time of the story. The second point is that of the set not being properly anchored.

[tarmel55]

These kids are so lucky! I work in theater as a stage technician, most mishaps involving flying a person result in injury or death.

[chitoryu12]

@tarmel55

.....how often do you kill actors?

[tarmel55]

@chitoryu12

We don't kill actors and honestly I would call in a professional company to do any flying of people. If I had one antecedent like that my career would be over.

[chitoryu12]

@tarmel55

Last time my high school did Peter Pan (year before I was a freshman) one of the Lost Boys ended up smashing into the top of a flat as he flew in from upstage. Poor kid was crying because he thought he ruined the play. Of course, then he became one of the top comic actors in the entire school.....

[rire25]

@chitoryu12 Omg!! I'm laughing so, soooo hard at your comment!!! XD

[pinkhedgehoggirl]

that was beautiful :')

[MgrWiz]

STAGE MANAGER FAIL!

[Wheatwill]

tosh.o!

[morphitologist]

What concerns me more is your set falling apart. Your Set Designer should be fired along with the rigging guy.

[itsFABIOO]

PANIC MODE.

[yingyangtaco]

lol the girl flying out of bed is like peter pan is the exorcist lol!!!

[Nightkeepr]

If you patent alarm clocks the yank people out of bed like that in the morning, instances of school and work tardiness would drop completely...at least for those that don't suffer concussions.

[paniclover4ever]

"Oh my god!"

I wonder how I would've reacted if I flew out of my bed..

[arcaneaddict]

CONSTRUCTION COMPLETE!

[RagingAnon]

who the hell brings a baby to a play? yeah i saw the set fall but all i heard was a crying baby. that's rude, like bringing a baby to a movie theater.

[DeadRaymanWalking]

@RagingAnon At the Ford's Theater they DON'T allow kids under 6 to be brought.

[nickatwork]

Clapping never helps.

[horridus1984]

I heard the girl playing Wendy got AIDS...

[TheVidNerd]

You guys are gonna be on tosh.0 CONGRATAZ!!!

[hannahmarieme]

and as we all know, the show must go on

[hannahmarieme]

what difference does it make that Patti Lupone broke character? as an actress myself, i know how difficult it is to act with a photographer flashing their camera right in front of you. that has caused me and some of my friends to lose character by itself. its incredibly distracting. although i do think the actress' here did a great job of handling the situation, as stage blunders are inredibly hard to ignore.

[trpguyy]

How can you say this is the fault of the rigging/rigger? It's pretty simple to see what happened - your flyers pulled the wrong ropes at the wrong time.

[amely1fan]

this is hilarious..i love this video!

these girls did a good job_&_i cant believe yall were on tyra because of this..its awesome!

[porkys54321]

thats why you put wagon locks on the set pieces

[wickedwitchwest12323]

Someone on the tech crew is SO fired.

[Solitaire427]

I understand nobody wants to point fingers and lay the blame on anyone. They just want to laugh it off but, if someone got seriousally injured you wouldn't be able to just laugh it off and someone would have to take responsibility. I'm glad nobody was hurt and that's what makes it so funny.

[Solitaire427]

I'm glad nobody got seriousally injured. It's easy to laugh it off and not point fingers at who's to blame when nobody gets hurt but, if someone got hurt badly than it wouldn't be so easy to laugh off. Somebody would have to take responsibility. It is funny only cause nobody was hurt.

[Reubenhoyle]

It's on Tyra right now

[fidget68]

Ha! Does the uploader know that this video is on Comcast OnDemand's "stupid videos" section now? It can be seen on cable boxes all over the United States now! :D

[YesIm10]

@fidget68

Ik, I saw this there, when I actually figured out what happened, I couldn't stop laughing.

[bumblebree2012]

wow, that stinks. our director had as watch this to 'prove' how dangerous using our old flying rigs are. But we ended up being fine. we're your other nights okay?

[beester445]

@bumblebree2012 Yea, everything else went absolutely fine the other two nights. To be honest, I think the only thing I was nervous about was standing behind that window every night!

[sosinator3]

fail!

[Shredderman230]

It really need's to be on AFV.

[angel3216]

1:34 Was that caramell dancing??

[Paulthefighter]

Shitty set, and shitty crooies...This would never happen at my school. Weak sauce all around.

[tomhetistgut3]

what happen at 1:18? Was that girl not supposed to fly into the air? haha

[nanamilucia123]

Yeah, they pulled the wrong strings. They were supposed to make Peter Pan fly, but the girl started flying instead... XDDD I heard from my music teacher about how the play went.

[TimScream]

@tomhetistgut3 No :D Normally is is Peter Pan , but here it's more the exorcist version :D

[Ronbo710]

Glad you're okay :). Liked the window dance lol :D.

[fsumpter]

LMAO i know this is probably not meant to be funny, but tears are coming out of my eyes right now. Despite all the mishaps I know the show probably received alot of laughs and the students had fun creating it. Look at Peter Pan after the 2nd mishap.

[chitoryu12]

This reminds me of one of my friends, Bo Smith. Peter Pan was his first show when he was a freshman, and he was one of the Lost Boys. During one of the performances he didn't have enough height to fly over the set and ended up whacking into it as he entered the scene. He was crying when he got down because he was afraid he ruined the show.

[DannyBoi56]

Worst spot lights I've ever seen. I almost missed the falling window and wendy getting torn out of her bed because I was busy looking at how bad the spotlights where.

[Ursula135]

ITS THE FLYING EXORCIST XD

[doooomster]

DOUBLE FAIL!!  X3

[deejayedwards]

GET YOUR WIRES OUT!

[FRDndsn]

I'm glad nobody was hurt. Congratulations to the cast and crew for carrying on, when they probably just wanted to crawl under a rock. I remember the time an M-80 firecracker blew up in my face during a high school play. I fell to the floor, clutching my ears in pain. The audience thought it was part of the show, and howled with laughter, which added to my embarrassment. This is the performance everyone in the show will always remember, and will look back on with great humor.

[chitoryu12]

Why was there an M-80?

[kelsagator]

I applaud you guys for finishing the show despite this happening. And thank you for posting this on youtube, it makes me crack up every time I watch it (:

[CaliforniaHope]

haha, EPIC FAIL!!!!!!! lol :D

[BennickGAdeus]

I did the spotlights and...let me say... I almost pissed myself laughing up there!!!!! Greenport, land of the randomest but most treasurable of life's moments :-P

[Jonofthekings]

Where was this

[beester445]

@Jonofthekings Greenport High School, Long Island, New York

[trishyxbear]

honestly as long as you covered it up... in professional theatre you gotta work with it though.. like instead of forgetting your line and running over to pick up the set, you have to improv, and say something like "oh look, the wall caved in... capt hook's pissed." (definitely don't say that, but you get my jist...) but seriously tho, it's high school, shit happens, and you fixed it. so don't worry.

[Hotbathtub]

I was there.. nbd

[wheresmytoast654]

NEVILLE <3333333333333333

[AWalkInMyShoes]

But what were they supposed to be rigged to, the ceiling stuff never looked like it was that strong...

[darrentube]

I was expecting much better after the newspaper plug... what a let down

[makamalu]

Thank you NEWSDAY for giving me the heads up! (Who is also owned by Cablevision) - Sorry, cheap plug. :-)

[cheaksta]

I was born, raised and still proud to live on LONG ISLAND! Suffolk County isn't ALL about "The Hamptons"...

[forevertweetie]

U said it, cheaksta. I, too was born , raised and also still proud to live on Long Island. I'm in Suffolk county too. I just wish they would do something about the high taxes we pay. LOL :)

[soccercleatscrush]

That was great! I have to take in their next production here on LI

[Rothguitar]

Did you miss last year's Greenport Peter Pan? This years production of "Grease" Mar.5-7 is NO fiasco, Park Ave. Band is in the pit and it ROCKS!

You've gotta give the actors their due, they just rolled with it and carried on with the show :-).

But that little "ohmygod!" just before someone flew into the window had me in tears, haven't laughed that much in ages!
