I thought this was great for an American high school production. Nobody is especially talented, but lord are they ever enthusiastic! I think they did The Lambeth Walk proud, considering that no one here ever became a professional performer -- but that's just a guess.

@ptrichmondmike

Ya guessed wrong.

This was poorly done. I'm in this show right now and opening night is next week. The boy who plays Bill is horrible and very young sounding. The boy in our show who plays bill is a 17 year old from England. He's fantastic. I dont know what we would have done if an American had done the part. He probably would have sucked worse than this guy.

Yes, Bill sounds young. He IS young. I'm sure that words like "horrible" and "poorly done" will thrill the student, if he still reads these comments [he's all grown-up now]. He was the HS best student who auditioned! I liked his.. as well as all the young students' performances in this show.

Although I'm not sure why you even took time to write a comment, I'm glad that you have an excellent guy playing your lead.

Let's see some clips after you open.

I'm worried, is this an american production or an English one?

[leojrevlis]

If I said "American," would you worry?

If I said "English," would you?

OK - so his Cockney accent is a bit strange when he's speaking but his (and the rest of the ensemble's) actual performance of the song has plenty of life and, therefore, works really well. My only criticism is that he should've got a haircut.

[Gavestonful]

For Americans they seem to manage the London (Cockney) accent reasonably well, but they just don';t seem to be able to pronounce Lambeth properly. To most English people, especially Londoners, their version sounds quite strange. It's quite simple really - it's LAM'buth" - as easy as that. - Lambeth, you've nevah seen - the skoy ain't blue an' the grahss ain' green , bu' tha' down' mah'uh very mach..........

Very nicely done! My high school did "Me and My Girl" for the musical this year. I really regret not going and seeing it, even though I tried out. I got to see "Lambeth Walk", "Me and My Girl" and "The Sun Has Got His Hat On" performed at a choir concert though. Kinda makes up for it... a little.

Well done. Congrats. :-) (Love the enthusiasm!)
