A Chorus Line-"Montage Part 1: Hello Twelve, Hello Thirteen"

[XxBexx123]

Did you mean to sound really bored?? It looked like none of you could be bothered.

[gtl813]

i lol'd at this. it was awful. i just did a version of this (its on youtube). youtube.com/watch?v=e7JWI55KEH­k check it out!!

[sugarplumx94]

I believe this musical was made FOR dancers so when the main characters in this can't dance its disappointing.

[mumfffff]

mark's monologue is way too slow, connie doesn't know the words, and everyone is so flat and boring. they don't even dance, they just stand there. the montage is the best, most active, most fun part of the entire show and they fucking stand there. this is shit. i'm appalled.

[lossie101]

SO HARD!

We are doing this at musical theatre and EVERYONE is finding it too hard to sing!

[pinkbull6]

Is that Kurt from Glee in the back row? 

[magicalmahem]

@pinkbull6 holy crap that does look like him!!!

[bmax231]

is this the music from the movie? i'm confused I did this show in January in NY and it was so much faster and intense and we danced...

[Meerkat142]

Dude, the Glee version of this song is waaaaaaay better!

[crazyrandom3]

The girl who's 4'10. Story of my life. o.O

[theethmannnn]

whoa.. ouch

[Phyre702]

eeeeeeeeeek, whos the fatty in the black leotard?!?!?!?!?

[Telepresent]

Holy Fuck DO SOMETHING!!!

[audreysrandom]

this song is supposed to be fun

it puts me to sleep

better keep searching youtube

[JGCooney]

Is this song posted in spanish dubbing?

[petpow46709]

NO DANCING?!

[blondebaby589]

Wow. Between the complete lack of dancing, atrocious acting, and flat singing, this is actually laughably horrendous. Connie doesn't even know the correct lyrics!

[SpotlessBanana]

I don't get it.. Where's the dancing? :S

[SarcasticSun]

I'm watching this for a reference, and it's a bad idea. I mean, the songs can be learned this way, but they don't move, and there is so much dancing in this show. And the background characters are very distracting in each number. I love this show to death, and I liked the performances, but it could've been better.

[thelightelectric]

A Chorus Line without dancing? It just seems a awkward with them just standing there. In real life, would the entire line of auditonees break into dance during someone else's audition? Probably not. But keep in mind this is Broadway. It needed a dance.

I also agree with alyvideo. The people in the background were very distracting with all the fake little giggles. Really took away from it.

The Mark is excellent though!

[alyvideo]

The director (aside from having them dance...) really should have told the folks in the middle of the line (black leotard in particular) to stop mugging and stealing focus. All those fakey little pokes, grimaces, and giggles....they do not improve the scene. Right before he says, "Wet Dream," she wiggles her head as if to say, "What?" Doesn't work. I apologize if my comment offends. Just something to think about! You don't have to try project everything on your face and through your gestures.

[zeekylily]

this is ridiculous...a chorus line is a dancing show, and there is no dancing

[Headguard03]

Hehe, I love Connie's deal about being short! =P

[MsRohaaan]

boring

[ReederWI]

Greg and Sheila are so overweight in this production.

[tarynactress]

Yeah... so?  How fat are you?

[factortenshithawk]

boring slow ugh so YAWN boring perform, dont sing like ur so tired u could die!

[charmedcole]

they are pretty boring.. and it sounds like it has no energy

[xdramaqueenjessx]

omg this is awful !!

[peskyninja32]

they should be moving around. seriously.

[livingthemomentx]

im doing this song tues for a spring concert we dont have the actor in the beginning and we dance around .. alot

[8658766]

wat a terrible actor.

[theatregurl92]

there definitly needs to be more dancing...it pretty boring...

[SteAndKel]

we're doing this in june =D

but ours has a hella lot more dancing.. haha

[xotweetypiexo]

same here ours is directed by a dancer, its awful how much dancing we do

[sugarhoneyicedtea123]

yeah, i agree with you Quentin100909, it's waayy to dull or in otherwords, slowpaced. it should be more upbeat and you guys should've moved around more in the begining of the montage. oh well, still good acting!

[Quentin100909]

It's too slow paced for me. sounds a bit unproffessional. But I love the rest of this production

[BroadwayBoundLoser16]

Connie said one of her lines out of order. And why is there no dancing? I loved it when Christine yelled "Seeing Daddy naked!" That was funny.

[ceflittlelu07]

he sounds retarded...

[Mike875]

wheres the dancing?

[lzum13]

WTF Mate?

[jwcamd]

So what's up with Connie being sooooo off pitch? Her part's not that hard.

[SaraBelll]

lol i'm actually four foot ten

[CorbinIsTheBest]

spelled fourteen wrong.

[SaraBelll]

lol not fourteen, i'm 4'10. that's how tall i am xD

[XxRelinquishedxX]

that was an awful version of mark!!! recently the year 2's at my college did chorus line for their FMP. and their mark was amazing, he was really funny, shy, young looking (even though he is the oldest in the class) and an amazing actor!!!!!! come on boy your ment to be the baby! and american!!!!! get some acting lessons and use the stanislaski example of getting into character!!!!!!

[sarahtyrrell32]

did you really just stand there the whole time?

did you dance at all in this show?

[sarac2846]

when i was in this show.

we did alot more dancing during this.

[GooBooFilms]

that guy fucking ruins the character of Mark!

[Loddeer]

this production really suckes

[greenelphiexoxo]

Your Connie is SO adorable!!!

[wardsangel]

Nice try at a great musical. Unfortunately I agree, Mark is done all wrong in this version. His character is much less confident during his speech, remember he's supposed to be 17, the youngest out of adults. I also find myself wishing the rest of the cast would speak/sing louder and more confidently. In general for all clips from this line, the acting is pretty terrible and the actors need singing lessons, esp. holding out notes rather than cutting them short to save breath.

[pezz160791]

really bad mark

[JHollingsworthh]

Awesome.

[pezz160791]

this was a horrible take on the character mark! and is done all wrong!!! tut

[WickedFan4000]

ha ha!  Mark's hilarious!

[QTkakes]

about the Age thing...the youngest was 15 yrs. The girl in the beginning/opening in the purple skirt was youngest...me...

[QTkakes]

this was SUCH a GREEEAAAT show to do! especially the whole MONTAGE.

[sebastianarcelusbit]

The tempo is way off. After that opening bit, it's supposed to speed up, and back off a little bit for Mark's bit. It stays the same tempo almost through the entire time.

[jaja87]

love chorus line and from what i've seen from your videos, i wish i could have been there to see it. people can gripe that these people aren't dancers all they want. but you guys did a hell of a job anyway :)

[nekonuk]

I understand that these people aren't dancers (especially cassie, from what the music and the mirror video shows) but what's the point of doing a chorus line without the dancers being able to dance? It's a little redundant...

[TommyBoy249er]

because it's not like the show needs original choreography... it'd be amazing if it had it, but it doesn't need it

[forluvabroadway]

i agree w/ u ttly

[crluvalotbear]

this makes me want to cry

how old are these people?

[TommyBoy249er]

wide variety, why?
