I love the "Bachelorette" scene. I really wish I could see this since it's coming to my state like...next week I think. But it's to far for my mom's liking T_T I wish I could find the whole thing online.
@56musical i neva saw it. i saw ur conversation with jamtojake and i felt bad. but the us and london tour is still going on. i remeber seeing a vid saying that the ppl who who wrote stm wanted to hurt pincchio soo bad they wanted to:
wow i dodn't know there was a magic mirror in any of the versions. it just has gingy being tortured to tell Farquaad if he knows about any princesses (they still do the muffin man bit thou)
@georgeyworge No, of course not! I would never illegally tape a show, not even to help promote it. These were clips that I found before they were deleted.
I just saw this show last night in L.A. and LOVED IT!!!. The only weak moment of the show was the way they staged the scene when the dragon eats Lord Farquaad. They shined a silhoutte of the dragon on the window backdrop, the lights flashed, and Farquaad was gone in a puff of smoke. Then one of the characters makes a coment like, "The dragon ate Lord Farquaad!" (because if you hadn't seen the movie you wouldn't have even been able to tell what just happened. Was this the original staging?
Thanks for posting this. Some of the scenes from the Broadway version of this show aren't in the West End version so is good to see what we missed! =)
In the west end the drury lane jokes are going to be better because it's being shown in the drury lane theatre. Do you think they planned it that way?
How come when I saw this (Memphis) half this crap wasn't in it? AKA the mirror, bathtub, and that thing when he sings about being taller than his dad! I LOVE THIS SHOW! (If they cut because of time I'd take farquad over freak flag ANYDAY!) Could someone PLEASE answer this?!?!?!?
do you have the part where lord farquaad is singing a song, and he lifts his legs up really high? it was so funny when i went to see the production, but now i cant find it anywhere online. i forgot which song it was in, but he was in his "castle" thingy, and he lifts his little legs up. please post that part!
LOL. I LOVE the Wicked reference in #1, that truly deserved it's place at #1. Cos I adore Wicked, is that in every performance he does the end of Defying Gravity bit?
And is it his voice doing the "Ah-ah-ah-ah!" bit? Cos it sounds an awful lot like the actor for Pinnochio's voice lol :)
i really want to find that one scene where he is choosing a princess and one of the henchmen is all like "NUMBAH 3 MAH LORD!" and he's holding up i think 4 fingers.
My mom and I went to see this with a group of people who traveled with us to NY . We both remember thinking "This'll be stupid." , but from the moment it started we were in love with it . Without a doubt one of our favorite musicals (:
This is so hilarious! I never got to go see the musical and I wanted to sooo badly. I love this video! Thank you so much for posting it. My favorite actors are most definitely John Tartaglia and Chris Sieber. But the whole cast is great and this is one awesome show from what I've seen. Thanks again for posting this! BTW: Wigger Pinnochio was so freaking funny!
I felt the same before seeing this show "Oh great, another one based on a movie", but then I fell in love with it. I still kinda wish people would take their musicals from original ideas, but for this show I'll make an exception because I love it.
He's on his knees on two tracks that run up his legs and the fake legs are attached to. Type in Episode 7: The villain from the shrekthemusical youtube page and you see some great behind the scenes footage of his in it
@LiliaceaeProductions You have to have someone who is three feet tall while on their knees and you have to be pretty tall for that. But yeah, you wouldn't typically expect it.
it's actually the first time dat effect had been used on broadway, wat dey do is, da actor who plays Pinocchio wears all black, and dey put motion dots on his face to make da face move and make all the expressions
Haha he changed the line in #10 to "Whao, plastic horse!" when I saw Shrek last week :) Great collection of clips...I wish that I had all of your raw footage!!!
His knees are padded VERY well so he can barely feel a thing. His back does give him problems though, so he does about half an hour of yoga, pilates and stretching before each show in addition to other warm-ups.
But you gotta admit, for all the hard work, it looks like he's actually having a lot of fun onstage.
Aha, we have to think about all that goes into making a show, and this guy is a real actor, god, I couldnt do that! Yeah he does look like he has fun on stage every second he is in it!
When this first opened i was talking to my theatre teacher about it (b/c hes friends with christopher Seiber who plays lord farquaad) and i was kinda kidding around and asked if Chris was really short and he just goes "oh no! hes six four, he just plays the whole show on his knees" lol i guess he wasn't kidding...
i know! hes HUGE!!! lol i keep trying to get my teacher to introduce our class to all his friends on broadway that he met when he was an actor in NYC... so far its not going well... lol
i saw it the other day because my cousin adam plays the french horn in it and i got to go bkstage,IT WAS AWESOME,plus no.9 was the previews because he didnt have the guy yes
Oh come on it HAD to be number one :D
