[graytravis38]

search ridley high schools

[sir9integra9jr]

Cello 1 in the pit orchestra. Can't wait!

[AwwhNahhh]

@sir9integra9jr And you earned it! ;)

[sir9integra9jr]

@AwwhNahhh I'm pretty sure it happened because Logan voluntarily sat second, leaving first as the only open chair... there were no auditions...

[AwwhNahhh]

@sir9integra9jr It's still fancy... :P

[mroutdoorsy]

nice music

[rcs17x]

I just got home from an audition where we were taught and sang this piece and I have such a headache now. Great music, hard to sing.

[nafez2]

I was Amanosoro in my theater groups performance!

[leahsing101]

im high school is doing this and auditioning using this song!! :)

[PostThaMost]

one m0:00re time

[soccergrl354]

This is the solo I want!

[LilyTigerR]

I LOVE Zosar! His voice is awesome. But of course I love Radames more. ;-)

[mrsatticusdmitchell]

@LilyTigerR true. And yes, i do know that, xD

[mrsatticusdmitchell]

My school is doing this musical. I actually have auditions next week. SUPER excited. I'm in love with this musical. <3

[Moofuhdoo]

This song is my audition for Radames at my school, I think I can do alright except for the last "brave"... Adam is a beast.

[jsf5146]

I dont like how the main character is a tenor.......... not fair....

[BassActor7]

@jsf5146 Welcome to the craziness that is being a bass/baritone in theatre...it's a pain. Still, you learn to appreciate the roles that are available to you - I love this musical, and while I'd love to play Radames if I had the range, I've come to accept it's not going to happen because modern musicals glorify high notes. However, I did get top play Zoser, and it was great being part of the show. And there are bass roles out there, though mostly in older musicals...

[jsf5146]

@BassActor7 you have a good way of looking at it! i mean, im not ashamed to be a baritone; i get the best of both bass and tenor worlds. im happy with my voice

[hunnibabbe]

We are doing this musical in my school!! Woooo!

[summerstarsx0]

This should musical totally be made into an animated Disney movie!!!

[mrsatticusdmitchell]

@summerstarsx0 some parts are innappropriate though, which stinks. ):

[LilyTigerR]

@mrsatticusdmitchell that never stopped them before, you know most of the Disney movies are "edited" versions of the original fairy tales right?

[tenorsax34]

5 people haven't been favored by fortune.

[Iamonlymeee]

I LOVE this musical, I've used a lot of the songs from it for auditions and usually get some sort of a part most of the time.

[theajdivas10]

I watched my school's performance of this last night. It was amazing and now I'm addicted to the songs. Have to buy the album now! :)

[gleekgreen13]

Maybe because it was to racy.

[Chicktaco]

@AlbinoTanuki THAT WOULD'VE BEEN AWESOME!!!!!!!! (that is if Disney didnt screw it up.... but anyway if they stuck to the story....)

[aida4able]

gosh!!! aida is my name



[LovelyLilPaigelkinzz]

omg, we just found out this is gonna be our school musical this year! im soo excited! we did phantom of the opera last year, and i wonder how this is gonna live up to it! :D

[Serenityxisxlove]

I thought the voice sounded familiar! It's Adam Pascal, aka Roger from RENT :D

[hottluv32]

Who sings this?

[kyuki777]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH!!! FORTUNE FAVORS THE BRAVEEE YEAHHHH!!! XD

[TRIXHOMO]

YOU GUYS, THEY ARE MAKING A LIVE ACTION MOVIE OF THIS WITH BEYONCE AND CHRISTINA AGUILERA!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Darklight170]

@TRIXHOMO im sorry but if that is true it will suck

ps i dont mean to troll

[kyuki777]

@TRIXHOMO ...........nuh uh........O_O;

[jkempire17]

my school did this and it was one of the best shows weve done. it was a fun play to do :) i also love how it is written

[6988john]

this is actually a real corny song. Ive been thier and this song is for a kids movie. I guess it ok for kids who never seen life...........

[EstherTsivia]

@6988john I saw it on Broadway and didn't think it was corny. And I'm not a kid.

[Darklight170]

@6988john are you saying AIDA is bad?! i dont meen to be a troll but this was the best thing i have ever seen!!!!

[6988john]

Wow... why is the singer so old and grey. She looks like shes been thru it..... Nice voice though

[lordseshomaru86]

god it's been about 5 years since I saw this musical and I still remember all the words as Adam Pascal pounded them out onstage. He was AMAZING!! when I first saw this

[GleeTastic1516]

My school just recently performed this great musical. I loved it, such great music! ACHS :)

[GleeTastic1516]

My school recently just performed this beautiful production :) Such a great show and great music! ACHS!!!!

[amg2on]

saw this while in chicago last month prettty good

[colt413]

My HS just released that this is next years musical and im not sure what song to do from it because we need to have a 30 second section of a broadway song and a monologue and I cant decide on the song or the monologue any ideas? (I want to be Radames)

[Shenzei1musical]

@colt413 Its a really bad idea to do a song from the show your school is doing (coming from a college theatre student, so no worries) If you do a song Radames sings, then you're type-casting yourself and thus closing off all opportunity for any other role. They might see you as the Pharoh or someone else, so choose a song you can really show off your talents in--there are a BUTTLOAD of songs to choose from!

[colt413]

@Shenzei1musical Ok thanks! I appreciate the feedback! 

[NightWalker47]

I think it should be a movie though. It's a beautiful story and I'm sure Disney would do a great job on the animation.

[17Sk8ter17]

My school just finished wit strike for this show =( i can't believe were done wit the show! Awsome job guys!!

[Note579]

Oh the museum scene. Amazingness it is. Amneris has a beautiful voice

[CharCharKing13]

My school just finished our production AIDA :) It was one of the best productions I've ever seen and one of the best written musicals I've ever heard :) Amazing job CCHS :)

[Sugarpopgirlie]

just got back from my hs production of aida, it was amazing, i loved it. all the students gave it their all and put so much into its production. i loved it, would love to see the broadway version...

[10kidsrock]

sup people this is awesome

[sassyjurphy]

Saw this on Broadway with Deborah Cox as Aida. Completely amazing.

[PresidentDRCI]

I love this play, I also love how you can tell just by the melody of the song whether it is to be taken seriously or to just have fun with it.

[craziestanimefan]

Sherie Rene Scott is so amazing. <3

[RisingStar42]

in the begining of Every story is a love story, doesn't the narator sing that?

[jadetango81]

@RisingStar42 well she kind of acts like the narrator in this part but it's Amneris (Sherie Rene Scott in this recording) who sings

[loveless1108]

CAPA high school is doing this play cant wait

[PhenomPhilly]

@loveless1108 i know i go there!!

[sunshineisstephh]

@alexisj79 What mainstage did you do?

And I agree, it was absolutly phenomenal. :D

[serenadeyuki]

is that adam pascal ihear?

[okiallday657]

@serenadeyuki Why, yes, it is! He plays Radames

[ReleaseUrself]

My school just totally did this musical.

It was brilliant.

Tim Rice AND Elton John?

Amazing combo.

GO CAT

[supercoolbenwag]

@ReleaseUrself my school did it too awhile back and i fell in love with the music. so amazing. =]

[sunshineisstephh]

I saw this show done by Douglas Anderson School of the Arts, at the Florida Thespian Conference. I was completely blown away by the set, the acting, the singing, the cast, the coreography. They literally changed my life. I cannot believe how much dedication they put into it. I cried so much. The entire show was so convincing. Even when part of the set almost fell on Radames, they blew it off and you couldnt tell anything went wrong, that is true passion, and dedication, and acting. I loved it!!

[GHETT0SP00N]

@sunshineisstephh I agree 100%. I was there too. My god. FANTASTIC.

[alexisj79]

@sunshineisstephh it was the best show I've ever seen! (except for radames almost getting attacked by sets) My school did mainstage and it had nothing on Aida,our school and every other school who was at the show is still talking about it! Theatre at it's best,truly.

[broadwayismylife47]

@alexisj79 this must have been at the florida state thespian festival? oh my gosh can i just say it was amazing!!!!

[MusicOceans]

I must say, Adam Pascal's voice is absolutely breath-taking.

[singingstar56]

my school is doing aida right now...its an amazing story and play!

[MrJohneybgood]

Adam Pascal is the reason this musical is so great... Just sayin :P

[ellassofrito]

**chills** <3 this musical

[Matthewsmom46]

I love this play and soundtrack is unbelievable!!! To have these voices would be amazing!

[Abcdgify]

I love sherieee!

[LOTRClover1]

My sis was in this play and she was aida. IT WAS SO FUN TO WATCH THANK YOU FOR PUTTING THIS ON YOUTUBE!!!

[HistoryLover1550]

LOVED the broadway musical, i've seen it 2 times and the music's awesome!

[ShaunStreb]

this is my favorite musical. ive seen it twice. i love it. i wish they made a movie out of it already!!

[LDSliverhead]

@snugglebunnie1717 Because they were too busy making the Princess and the Frog.

Though Tangled was actually very good...so if they were busy making that, I guess a DELAY would be reasonable....

[PTPfilms]

My school is doing this musical soon

[kittykatmeow224]

i <3 this music and I saw something like this for a school musical a ouple weeks ago. . . :D

[Dragoonknight717]

We just did a school-version of this. 'Twas fun to do :)

[ChineseChik525]

ugh god, adam pascal's voice...its indescribable. soooo amazing <3

[chibixcandy]

[craziiNkool07]

[XxXtyslilpreppyXxX]

[InhopesofJuliard]

Of a love that flourished

In a time of hate" :) As my teacher says, I can "Tear it up" lol. Can't wait :D

[singer50001]

[samanthanatasha4]

[DigiKaiserin]

This is one of those songs that you just can't listen to one time and be done with it. It gives you those goosebumps that you have to experience many times :)

[mynameinlights1]

i wish my school would do this as the musical

[nooneuno9312]

I had amneris' solo for my school! it was great!

[LizSmiles1]

I love this musical

[dropdead4]

...........is it just me or does the male voice sound like roger from the movie version of rent.......

[KnightenGaile]

@dropdead4 That because it IS the man who played roger from rent. Adam Pascal is in both fo these . . hes so talented

[DeadendCountDown]

My school did a musical for this, dude, it was pretty legit =)

it was worth watching

[DanceCixiDance]

Adam Pascal is one of my favorite singers/actors for a reason! 8D

[willot0722]

ive got to see this on broadway again

[blackwing38]

Our school did this this week very nice :D

[roxyy8]

replacement amneris=idina menzel!

[SingingFool123]

i want my school to do this soooo bad! i would wanna be her!

[valmab1]

Amazing Song every!

[twilighthippie1]

I love "Every Story is a Love Story" it is so beautiful!

I wish I could sing like her!!!!

[quackquackquack999]

I LOVE this song. I'm doing this for my call back (Every Story)

[Kristizzlee]

Amazing play! One of my favorites!

[ericvyse]

@Kristizzlee HAHAHAAA

[Dancer5761]

The dance show this year is Aida :D

I'm so excited !

[4blue4eyed4]

are every story and fortune favors the favor part of the same song..cuz i really would love to do this song(every story) for my solo piece(:

[NickoliZorbigillespi]

They're attached when the musical is performed, but they're really two separate songs. We did this at my school and I was Zoser. It is a great solo piece. One of my two favorites from the musical.

[twisyangel]

They are not the same song but they do lead in to each other

[pookkaaa]

no, theres just no pause between them in the show. :)

[ronisthesexx]

so is mine xD im thinking about auditioning

[darthshendor]

Yeah, my highschool is to, I cant believe i made the auditions, this is my first musical

[heyyoubitme]

@darthshendor Congratulations!

[broadwaybeauty100]

my high school is doing this show for our spring musical(: i cant wait..

[TtylerMaria]

go to east?

[Ryguyg10]

SAME! :D

[InsanityIsBeautiful]

Stupid kidnapping soldiers who think they're all that. Grrrrrrrrr.

Ah, it's so cool being a nubien woman, we have a blast!

[KittyKat152]

in my small town we are having the play...and i'm trying out for Amneris.. I CANT WAIT!!!!! :D

[elotello]

is this based on the opera aida by verdi???

[IamQueenMab]

yes-the opera was the basis for the broadway show. :)

[AlbinoTanuki]

@IamQueenMab You know, I heard there were plans to make this into an animated Disney movie, but it got canceled.

[IamQueenMab]

@AlbinoTanuki ya know, I'd heard that it was gonna be a movie--and now they canceled it? :O hmm...I wonder what made them do that? (btw-thnks 4 the info!) :D

[AlbinoTanuki]

@IamQueenMab I'm guessing it was Michael Eisner when he decided to have his animators make movies like "Chicken Little" *shudders*

[lavieboheme1993]

@IamQueenMab

They need to uncancel those plans. I would go see this in a heartbeat. It's probably not...kid friendly enough, though, is it? I mean....the ending would probably scar them for life.

[mimmar3891]

@lavieboheme1993 I'd say it depends on the age of the kids. It wouldn't be enjoyed or appreciated much by kids younger than 10, I don't think, but older kids might like it.

[AlbinoTanuki]

@IamQueenMab Well technically, Tiana WOULD be counted as a princess since she married a prince and thats what helped to break the spell that made them both turn into frogs.

[TheEvanNightbane]

@IamQueenMab They actually halted the production of the animated show because Disney had other movies they were working on so they put it on hold but then Elton John and Tim Rice spoke with Disney and got the info, the rights, and the work they had done for the movie with the intentions of making it into a musical for broadway, Disney loved the idea and once it got on broadway Disney decided not to make the animated movie.

[AngelKytara]

@IamQueenMab I'm glad they didn't make a movie out of 'cause Disney was gonna screw it up. Zoser was gonna be a good guy and Amneris was gonna be the villian.

[HistoryLover1550]

@AngelKytara I saw the concept art for the animated movie, it was BAD!!!

[wainblatrobert]

@AlbinoTanuki this would've been an epic disney love story....with an actual black princess this time

[Ochibobogal]

@AlbinoTanuki

good it's not disney material

[AlbinoTanuki]

@Ochibobogal But Disney owns the musical though.

[Ochibobogal]

@AlbinoTanuki

not the original though--right?

[AlbinoTanuki]

@Ochibobogal Well no, not the original opera by Puccini, but I figured they were basing their story off the musical version. Besides, Disney did Hunchback of Notre Dame and the original story had much more adult themes in it.

[Marlean]

@AlbinoTanuki They should make a movie of this, I think it would be really good. It has great music atleast. =)

[TheAlpacaChannel]

@AlbinoTanuki they were going to originally make t an animated movie, but they just went with the musical, they have plans to make a movie coming out in like 2014

[Darklight170]

@AlbinoTanuki thank god, it just wouldnt be the same as seeing it live, i mean come on

[heyheymister]

@AlbinoTanuki Aww, i wish they did!

[Tyreall101]

@elotello This aint opera, This is GOOD SHIT.

[ChrisMagoo99]

@elotello on an slightly related note, Adam Paschal played Roger in the musical "Rent," which is based on the opera "La Boheme"

[verdgner1]

@elotello francamente,,,por qu,e no dan a Verdi lo que es de Verdi y al musical americano ,o que le toca,con TODOS MIS RESPETOS PARA SONDHEIM ETC ?

[KDA92585]

[bertio10]

[MindlessMitchie]
