Three Little Maids from School Are We - GMCLA.ORG

[99sra]

OMG who things of all of these? Themes, choreographies, harmonies, humour... everything is wonderful in every video I've watched!!!!

[jimroman]

@99sra Thanks very much. When 200 singers assemble in Hollywood, there are many collaborators! Give special credit to the dancer in the purple kimono. He choreographed this entire number, including the surprise with the fans at the end. Be sure to visit us if you come to LA. For tickets, see: gmcla.org

[99sra]

@jimroman Yes, I've read about the choreographer in purple. What a nice job! He is also very pretty! Don't get me wrong, I'm a girl lol ;)

Bravo to everybody for the wonderful voices and performances and to every collaborator! I'll surely visit you if I ever come to LA (I live in Europe). Thanks for the answer ;)

[anakyriou]

I love it!!! Well done, it might set the standard for this aria. Just great fun! Wonderful choreography! Also, these are the most ravishing three little maids I have seen!.

[burkeman333]

I'm glad to find out I'm not the only one who sings this song down an octave X__x

[maikerugo]

Two points to make; A) drag is always a crowd pleaser when played for laughs (which was done quite well here), B) it's almost fitting that men are playing women—despite being a very Savoy Opera written by a couple of British guys, it's traditional for men to play as women in kabuki theatre (as well as traditional Shakespearean theatre).

[4everdancechic]

hahahahaha soooo funnyy

[Tzippy323]

And exactly what difference does it make what their orientation is if they create great music and have fun? These are very talented people.

[neonmoon82]

Great job! I think Mark is the prettiest.

[donde2k]

I wasn't able to be there and am SO GLAD (that's right, GLAD!) that I just found this vid. Gary, you are priceless !

[Scarecrow2004]

This would be even funnier if straight men did this. There are too many uptight people in this world and they all need to relax and just have fun in life.

[Iank14]

@Scarecrow2004 Funnily enough there would have been a time when straight men would have done this without being stigmatized but I don't think the world was any better then as it is now.

[Icstitch]

VERY CUTE!!!

[ryu8888]

XD GAHAHA!! OMG this is the cutest thing ever.

[poohbah2003]

What a great presentation - perfect!

[dancemastah44]

Absolutely FABLULOUS, boys! I just had the urge to pull out my own fan and sing along!

Keep it up, you guys are AMAZING!!

Love,

An adoring fan from NorCal :)

[streetwhereulive]

This is just too cute. All of those men with fans and so unexpected! Just too cute.

[AwesomeSuperGirl]

I loved the little fan wave at the end the blue kimono is beautiful

[walpurgis943]

not exactly what gilbert and sullivan had in mind for this song but amazing nevertheless! you can really tell they're all having lots of fun!

[wkyken]

Jim, would it be OK to ask for IDs on the "three little maids"? I think the one in pink is the first tenor of the three, right?

[jimroman]

@wkyken

No, first tenor TK Asano wears the turquoise kimono, second tenor Gary Hayashi in pink, and Mark Chung is the baritone in purple who also choreographed the number for chorus and maids. Thanks for asking!

[1313hahaha]

LOL! Amazing!

[Darknessmovies]

I love it. They are soo cute!!

[opera10027]

I absolutely loved this! I can't stop watching these guys. I think they should do Madama Butterfly next.

Come to NYC! Please. They could definitely sell out Carnegie or Alice Tully Hall.

[TheViciousCabaret]

Ah, they're too adorable.

[mradaChris]

Very well done. My choir did the mikado this year too.

[rockisdead25]

the best version i've ever heard

[marjoriekl]

What makes it hysterical is the musicianship. If they'd been falsetto, off-key and silly it would have been LESS fun. I love the GMCLA!

[coolmamac]

I love this. How cute.

[RobTafoya]

Amazing!

[oriousblack]

I try not to freak out a lot, but this is just fabulous in every sense of the word...

[2424arwen2424]

haha funny!! xD

[GuymelefSang]

[capefearsouvenirs]

hehehe now that was just way too CUTE...howdy from NC

[darkmoonchaxx]

hahahahahaha thats awesome lol we sang that song to try out for girls treble region choir

[mwehmeier]

Fantastic! It's my fav' G&S and it was very very well done!

[ChelexBebop]

I'm in love with this. OMG!!!!

[bluecrab2u]

I was just listening to a CD...Ultimate Gilbert & Sullivan...which contains TLM, and was thus inspired to see what might be out here. This is just a great take! Bravo!

[JoeWPratt]

Schwenk would have approved.

[buddyakin]

Hooray GMCLA - love you guys!

[XxMerunxX]

I laughed so hard!

[aerach5]

ha that was so funi!!! and brilliant :D

[beccagirl15]

I thought it was hilarious, especially when the rest of the men took out thier fans. :}

[elvenlove]

I submit that no straight men's choir could do the wave better, nay, even half so well!

[rocker8650]

yes but idk if u or anyone noticed but 1 of the men in the group didnt have a fan there was a hole in the wave lol

[oldredgirl]

this was great!

[tubetoad]

Perfect. Well done, lads. Made me laugh.

[Jpj226]

[JeriLynnKarr]

FANTABULOUS!! I LOVED IT!!!!!

[larryboi88]

Bwahahahaha! Love it!

[KittyStarlight]

I love when the whole chorus all pull out their fans. ^_~

(I've seen a whole Gilbert and Sullivan chorus all pull out *flags* and start waving them...but never *fans* before now. ^_~ Cute! ^_^)

=^__~=

[mrs260]

This is my favorite of the GMCLA's videos on YouTube. :0) I love it!

[BiteHunter]

HAHAHAAHA! :10-:11, it was like TALK TO THE FAN; instead of talk to the hand.

1:11, hilarious buttflirt.

When the GMCLA joined in, that was even more hilarious with the syncronized fans and the fan wave.

Work it girls! Loved it!

[mayya09]

That was absolutely delightful! ^____^

[jhapzzz]

this is great! hahahhaha!

[rumpleman99]

excellent

[trishignao]

Total delight....loved the wave at the end.

[darkprince137]

[coolperson50613]

that was so funny!

[ycrad889]

Really impressive!

[NaeveAndCharlie]

Love It.

Haha

[slobone]

And they're doing it in the original key! Er, down an octave of course...

[comflectiveprdctions]

queers should die

[jimroman]

If this statement offends you, would you please click on comflectiveprdctions' hyperlink and tell him? There's no room for hate here.

[ddoyle11]

I wouldn't worry about him. Once he comes to grips with his homosexuality, he'll look back on this and regret having been such an ass.

[agontry]

pure camp! love it!

[bataviensis]

o my God... I can't stop laughing....

[SeimanStaines]

This is funny

[SiemanStaines]

Brilliant

[Nalijay]

[barbkaus]

I LOVE this. The Mikado was my first "classical" music experience in 1st grade. Kudos, indeed!!

[craigstur69]

Delightful! Charming!

[shauninfl28]

Bravo! (or Brava?) This is wonderful. It could have been over the top and completely campy, which would have ruined it. It's just long enough and subtle enough to be fantastic. Great job, gmcla.

[muttonsword]

pure genius.

[BenPilkington4925]

if straight people had this much fun.. there wouldn't be war :P

[Icstitch]

@BenPilkington4925 AGREED!!!

[delawarekelly]

This is brilliant. Maybe if straight people didn't take themselves so seriously they could have as much fun as we do.

[dancemastah44]

Wow, the "maids" have really got guts!

[topsyturvydom]

LOL! thank you for making my day. the chorus thing is genius.

[FelineStorm]

Awesome, awesome, awesome! I've seen at least 10 productions of the Mikado over the years and this is the BEST Three Little Maids of all! (And I agree, you guys have GOT to do the full Mikado...I'd come see it!)

[blakesspace]

Love it!

[bongmanding]

that was cute.

[dilgoar]

Oh my Good!!! The chorus with those fans... so funny!!! Gilbert & Sullivan would be proud (or if not, a least they are laughing in their craves, lol!!)

[Picardy]

Reminds me of Frasier! Brilliant performance.

[jgaonjr]

OMG! I totally remember this!!! I sang with GMCLA for only 2 season - THIS concert and the one after this. (I remembered I wanted a colorful fan but I got a white fan instead. Harumphh! )Great job guys! I miss you!

[bongmanding]

That was awesome!

[singspieler]

Very nicely done. Would like to see these gals tackle 'climbing over rocky mountain' from Pirates!

[kiwiscoota]

I'm sure Gilbert & Sullivan would thoroughly approve of this amazing performance.

[Hana08525]

haha omg i love when they twirl durring their solos

[Salimgeo]

Unbelievable!! I love it. You *must* do the whole Mikado.

[hpa2005]

only in Los Angeles can something like this happen and nobody would think twice about it

[bearcub410]
