My only criticism/concern is that the lighting was a little too bright for the camera, and we couldn't see what I can only imagine to be wonderful expressions on their faces. What gorgeous singing, particularly for high-schoolers!
Alright. I'll admit. I'm usually pretty critical of high schools singing songs and doing shows of this caliber. But I have to give it up. These singers are good. Brooke, is it? You can belt. Hands down.
This was the first time I ever saw Spelling Bee, and I was BLOWN AWAY. I couldn't believe these were kids my age. It was crazy! This became my new favorite show. When I got home from Theatrefest, I downloaded the broadway songs, and I was really let down. GBN (in my opinion) did much, MUCH better than the broadway cast. No comparison. Absolutely beautiful!
After 3 Illinois High School Theatre Festivals, this was by far the best show I've seen there yet. E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G about this was perfect, and I kept forgetting that it was a high school show as I watched. Absolutely beautiful all-around.
I saw this at theatre fest, the show was hillarious, and i thought the singers sounded so much better than the actual recording. You guys freaking rocked it!
@Stephiefulable i saw it at theater fest too on saturday night. my school did this last year and GBN blew us outta the water. i literally cried during this song
@Boulderboy203 Oh my gosh! YES, this song got my eyes watering :( We are doing drowsey chap. this year, but Libertyville freaking rocked it...we have a lot of competition now ;)
@Stephiefulable i had a ticket to see drowsy saturday in the afternoon but the people at jamba juice spilled my drink so they had to re make it so i was late. was worth it though, it was fucking delicious and i went bowling with my friends instead hahaha
