[PecanSandees23]

Wow! Just wow!!! And not in a good way.

[eneru234]

I'm liking the berlin wall hasslehoff jacket

[catiecop]

is this professional? worst!!

[linxMuppet]

I think i juat got cancer in my eye holes...this is my favorite video on you tube....second only to the star wars christmas/wookie tv special....thank you for posting this awesomeness...

[takanuva94]

Congratulations! You have officially turned "Cats" into dim sims.

[1noObster45]

LMMFAO HORRIBLE

[nygypsy318]

Wow... this is terrible.

[BellaandtheCullens]

P.S - @jackiewashington - what production was this? And who is playing Mr. Mestof?

[BellaandtheCullens]

@turkeylion - YES! Can we please see more of the show?!!!!!

[coolboy13o]

BJ Solomon is GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Wenubischannel]

OMG... Baddest production of cats.... Sorry, but this really sucks

[kikaualvaro]

jacob brent is awesome

[pelegirl5284]

"Look white I can do mom! I can jump over here here!" And then I can kick too!"

[cowgirlpoet1974]

This is without a doubt the BEST train wreck I have EVER seen.  God bless Mr. MESStof.

[Emberdarkflame]

well.......he said presto pretty good.........other then that this is like what would happen if Mr. Mistoffelees was drunk.

[stephenbabbi]

i don't get why everyone thinks its so horrific, its really not that bad

[JBentour]

this is like they forced somebody to improv this as part of their community service duties on a D.U.I. charge.

[Joedini00]

I could use more camera angles...

[melwattsblog]

this. is. horrendous

[12Toodles12]

I could make better costumes out of dirt.

[jasin1974]

Well, some blame has to go to the choreographer. Unless, he IS the choreographer.....and why put a "salute" in at 2:30??????? Poor guy

[pennnylane86]

@jasin1974 He was the choreographer! Lol. He stepped into the role the very last minute. That maybe explains it a little, haha.

[Draconicvisions]

It hurts....the pain...oh the pain...my eyeballs are burning.....

[jbbrasilsuperfan]

what a bunch of jellcle dogs. urgh.

[headsetchatter]

This video should be shown to anybody who doesn't understand what real dancers are, and why their talents are valuable, and why they go through such extensive training. This is the alternative.

[reader1004]

@headsetchatter I feel this way about people who claim to "direct". I am studying directing, and it's an insult when I see crappy productions. Do they honestly think it's GOOD?

[1JesusFreak4]

oh heavens.

[liamazingx13]

OH MY GOD I'M *CRYING* WITH MIRTH.

[WriterWench]

Maybe it would have helped if he had been to a dance class. Once. Ever. In his entire life.

[LukeWittz]

Holy shit its like cats with down syndrome

[dancerboi12341]

@LukeWittz oh my god this comment is amazing!!

[jddanceworks]

@LukeWittz this comment is soooooo amazing!!!!! perfect!

[tabernaclia]

Start watching it from like 1:46.

That's my fav part.

He like minces like an old queen.

Does some fancy foot action.

Gets caught up in the rainbow scarf.

And then i think says "UGH!"

[ive8er]

Really choreographer? You want this guy to dance the Original Choreography from the Movie and actually be a hit? Really now? Is this a joke? Am I being punked? 

[Thewaiter525600]

Maybe I'm a good dancer after all!

[bxkforu101]

@Thewaiter525600 I actually laughed out loud at this comment! haha so true.

[tedmaster13]

Y'all don't give him enough credit. He has one hell of a cart wheel.

[hypnoxxcat]

Half of the time, he looks like he's doing a butchered version of "Macarena"...

[ActingAl24601]

BRILLIANT. and by brilliant i mean disturbing and hilarious. i rofled and loled and spat my drink out and just watched it 100 times.

i want to give this director a slap for doing this, and a hug for brightening my day

[shellers113]

you just don't do cats if you don't have dancers.

[musofunk123]

Corky St.Claire Does Cats

[dancerboi12341]

CATS is my favourite show and is my no1 goal, this is just insulting!!! who is that hideous man?!?!?!

[ranasings]

heinous! Dude needs to learn to dance and lesson # 1 is point your damn toes!!!!

[tizzler7]

I would definitely go to this show and pay full price. Incredible work.

[linxMuppet]

this performance gives me a reason to live

[Brooster123]

Oh Bless his heart. WHy would Ms Thrasher put this on Youtube. the poor guy is the laughing stock of the broadway community. and the world.

[tallpaulriner]

this is an absolute shame!  SHAAAAME!!!

[GracieGal95]

1:40 ok, now wrap the rainbow ribbon around yur neck....lol,jk..

[LillyLaRose]

They are wearing Broadway CATS costumes! Oh, the waste!

[TheatreFan4]

@LillyLaRose They're just recreations. All the Broadway costumes are spread out all across the country by the people who bought them after the show closed.

[Igelschnaeutzchen1]

Is Mr. Mistoffelees Gizmo?

[squirrelcheese]

i bet it is totally that guys fault that this is extremely boring.

[dalyem1]

oh my, this is awful. An insult to the character of Mr Mistofelees, absolutely shockingly awful. There is so much wrong with that, I can't even say...just wow, that was bad. I saw cats last sunday, in the three week season,and it was phenomenal, this is just insulting.

[Armand32]

I must claw my eyes...aggh

[mikontisott]

The 5 trillionth performance of Cats, Mistoff has been doing this for 300 years.

[shinnydiscoballs]

the audience is drunk..no question...thats why they clapped for this kitty cat's poor poor rainbow scarf limbo...i bet there was a tailgate in the parking lot

[GriffinWolf2008]

I think part of me just died

[dance083]

is this serious or... ?

[rshaw3188]

i can't breathe I'm laughing so hard!!! OH MY GOSH!!! I could been on stage with her I would have broken character so much....XD

[jerbull8642]

oh my cow. that was scary

[tcntk5]

Rock on, kitty!! <3333333

[linxMuppet]

PRESTO!!!!!!!!!!!

[aasjb4ever]

i dont want to be one of those youtube critics who doesent do enuff community theatre...but after this i have lost what little respect i had for ALW

[scottydawg68]

assjb4ever!

It's not ALW you should loose respect for it's the bloody awful dancer!!!!

[aasjb4ever]

@scottydawg68

but who created the abortion thats being performed?

[dancerboi12341]

@aasjb4ever hahaha! love this comment! really made me laugh XD x

[scottydawg68]

I think you have a point, but a show that runs 21 years in the West End isn't that bad.

As with his other shows he appeals to the masses.

Great show for the dancers who can do it properly.

[cbrentb0001]

Painful!

[SAfan33]

where can i send fan mail lol

[arsather]

So that's where Corky St. Clair ended up....

[fosseboi]

Brilliant.

[VMshesamarshmallow]

Bingo. :-)

[starangelbelle]

He doesn't completely lack talent, but...TECHNIQUE, man. o_o the whole turnout-spotting-pointed feet part is completely lost on him.

[outland2442]

bad but sooooo entertaining!!

[shorterac989]

My whole cast of cats is DYING at this Misto, please post more of him!

[Bethfroud]

I want to see the whole video of this!!!! If anyone has the entire video please please post it on here!!!!!!!!!!

[brandonatau]

I can never get enough of watching this dude hurl himself across stage like the victim of a car accident.

[jelliclechristine]

[dancerboi12341]

[wexplo15]

[KMartin12786]

"Maybe if I bow my head it will look like my battement is higher...!!!!!!"

oh this completely made my day.

[minkys3]

Presto, indeed! I have never enjoyed cats so much in my life!!!!! Ahahaha! Thank you for this gem!!!!!!

[fuzzycublb]

[badrice]

I just threw up in my mouth

[flavahcat]

[dancincheer]

[musicaltheatrejunky]

This audience enjoys this performance far too much...

[xOvampiressOx]

such a waste of nice costumes and a good set.

bloody terrible.

but damn funny.

and a wonderful confidence booster ^^

[theatrejunky31965]

Everything about your comment... is 100% true :D

[MiseriWay]

lol it's like a bunch of leprechauns trying to pull off cats.

XD

[xOvampiressOx]

no way. the leprechauns would definitely prance better.

[TreMc]

Mr. MESS-tof.

[dannyboman]

I thought this was Will Ferrell doing some sort of spoof on cats.. I was mistaken...

[MusicalLover6]

This is fucking god-awful. He did NOTHING for almost a good five minutes. I can do the shit he did too!

... I'd put that cat out of it's misery!

[cheerbearr]

His cartwheels are good at least, lol.

[MusicalsDork]

This made me die a little inside. I'm sorry, he's not completely lacking of talent...but.....this....no.

[theatreguy26]

If he runs around the stage in a circle one more time.... awful

[willianoel]

Can someone tell me who this actor is and where was this performed?

[turkeylion]

send me a note and i will tell you....

[marymarie54]

"Presto!"

hahaha

this is completely ridiculous

[kfsfeel]

손발이오그라든다

[blueberriesncupcakes]

God i love this, especially at the end when he we supposed to do his pirarettes (sp?), and all he does is hop around on one foot.

[disnylndmagicman]

Oh. My. God. It's like Hairspray. Now fat men who can "move" can star on Broadway :)

[Blacker116]

This is what theatre is all about!!! It's inspirational, and magical. Leave him alone!!!

[banion5]

You've made us laugh this day. Well done.

And, keep that dream alive.

And, maybe give the tube a quick rest ;)

[deeharleqine]

you've got to be kidding me...

[madameno]

Love those jaunty kicks! And watch out for that rainbow ribbon. It'll getcha!

[dougtubeporter]

luvs it

[amyjo717]

Bless his kitty cotton socks. I bet he is a local legend. Does ANYONE know where you can find this entire performance? This is fodder for days!!

[turkeylion]

i have the entire thing on dvd.....it's amazing

[KMartin12786]

oh mylanta how does one get a copy of this?!

[hwgoose316]

I'm local....he's not a legend.

[vivalavietucker]

HA ...

[zunit4321]

awkward.........

[cbviewnow]

Did that just happen? ..... if miss lynne wasin the room a large gunshot would have been heard!

[sepiaworld]

whenever i'm sad or feeling utterly talentless, all i have to do is watch this. it's sure to brighten my day.

the only problem is that the whole scene is majorly creepy, not to mention it comes from the creepiest musical ever written.

[RomantiqueMusie]

For some reason he reminds me of Tom Hulce...

[BoLaCo10]

LoL. This totally brightened my day.

[jeffbowers]

HAHAHAHA

[t3hk00tn3ss]

The costume isn't bad but the actor is a bit of a goof.... he could be an admetus or a kitten but NOT Misto....

[beatles326]

Holy Crap!!!!

[wowreally90]

this is exactly why they should not have released this musical to the public

[beatles326]

what is up with the big ears

[Tuggersgirl]

you know, i think he is!

[b0b3rt831]

Was he drunk?

[Tuggersgirl]

YOU!!!!!!YOU ARE MAKING MISTO LOOK BAD!!!!!!!Your costume SUCKS!!!!!!You can't sing!!!!You are a really bad dancer,and i can do better than YOU!!!!!! You make us fans look like we are crazy!!!

[catwomanjellicle]

Actually that's an authentic Mistoffelees costume from the looks of it (unitard wise anyways). Broadway I think but I could be wrong. Either way it's a good quility costume. It's the dancing that's killed this song. It's such a pity..

[tancerka33]

This is perfect for another tragic reality show....In the running for the best community theatre production ever!

[boyledryce]

i just can't believe this was allowed to happen. and did his fouettés really get applause??

[b0b3rt831]

I don't even think they were fou'ettes?

[wowreally90]

haha, yeah i'm pretty sure he was just hopping around on one foot with the other kinda sticking out

[thomasswayne]

Well the show sucks to start with.

[KMartin12786]

AGREED!! hahahaha

but this just makes it sooooooooooooooo much better

[elphabelle07]

...is this supposed to be a joke??

[SobreVivir]

oh

my

god.

this is too much.

i havent laughed this hard in a while.

wow

just wow....

[D1voice]

oh lord...

[LaurenS419]

whoa.

if Jacob Brent were dead, he'd be rolling around in his grave right now.

it's almost too painful to watch, isn't it? wait...it IS too painful to watch.

[Andrrrrrres]

Wow

This is sad...

I don't even now how else to describe it...

If you like watching CATS vids, you should check out videos from our production [[Especially our Mr. Misto who is amazing lol]] oh and they're in my favorites lol

[SofiatheKitty]

What's the name of that actor playing Misto?

[dementedsinger316]

They mutilated my poor Misto!!!!

[animesonggirl]

ong this guys needs help. a lot of help.

[suncrusader]

I am pretty sure HE Cast himself! Scarry huh?  He was the choreographer!

[Esmeralda6891]

OMG!This guy sucks at playing Mistoffelees! He needs some more dancing lessons! Singing sucks! Why did he sing Rum Tum Tugger's part?! Seriously the director needs to be slapped for casting him!

[SwedishFishNo1]

Oh my god !! Is he drunk or what !!???

That is soo embarrassing !!...

Can´t belive that he got up on stage and did that !!

Hhahaha....

[bendurocher]

His wig makes him look like Brain (from "Pinkie and the Brain") who fell in a vat of magical, mystical tar.

[Tuggersgirl]

Yeah crazy and he can not sing

[JelliclesForever]

God damn it! That's all I can think of to say.

[cmusoprano]

*goes into convulsions* ooooooooh my.

[89stevennn390]

...umm....well...thats was...bad......

mistof needs lots of help with everything he just did...and the costume could be a lot better

[modernbrent]

ALl is have to say is PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PLEASE!!!!­!!!!PLEASE!!!!!!!!! get your kitty butt in class..cause its apparent youve never been to one before

[smoothmoovah]

them be some hot fuette's at the end... :-S

[astor1983]

This has to bee ilegall

[Rufriben]

Oh, no. No, no, no, no.

No.

[VTWC]

I agree with everyone's comments. This Misto is pretty bad, and cannot dance worth a tub of kitty litter. However, they DO get to wear original Bway costumes! How fun! NOT! Now even high school kids can wear thousand dollar costumes. Ugh!

[LaurenS419]

what a waste, though! using the Broadway costumes for this crap!!!

[VTWC]

But I have to agree with everyone's comments. Errr...but they are wearing the Peoria stolen Wardrobe costumes from Broadway! Now high school kids can wear the originals, how fun! NOT!

[IdaSofie93]

They ruend it, it looks horribel!

(just like my spelling)

I just cant belive how bad it is!

[animesonggirl]

they ruend it!

[totter]

that is on FAT cat!!!!  kitty needs to go on a diet before he gets into the cat spandex

[ReconditeDusk]

Who the hell cast THAT GUY!?

ok wow... i'm sorry, but that was terrible. his pump turns we're.... awful!! the 10 year olds at my dance studio have more technique than this guy!
