Beautiful

So awesome! The footwork in Class Act and Tap Tap. just…wow! And Dule Hill as a kid, adorable! What was the name of the number with all the props? So creative, and difficult! What I wouldn’t give to see some of those numbers from the end of the show.

Thanks for uploading! I read the book in three languages, saw the three movies, a Canadian amateur movie "made for RUclips", the 1988 musical, the 2012 revival and numerous student musical productions of Carrie. And, of course, I went through a Carrie-like youth myself (having autism in the 1980s when hardly anyone knew how to deal with it). Of all the Carrie musicals I came across, this one comes closest to the book and the 1976 movie (my favourites). - 5:14 Carrie prays to her mother, while in the 1988 musical, she prays to the Lord Almighty. I prefer the latter approach. Carrie does not really love her mother, but she has nobody else to love (until Tommy comes along). + 9:10 the period scene, much like the 1976 movie, even with physical abuse and Miss Gardner urging everyone to get out. Greatly done. + 10:19 MISS GARDNER I'M BLEEDING TO DEATH !! She nailed it. I wish Sissy Spacek would have used that line in the 1976 movie. 16:02 the scene with the boys. I like the fact that Billy Nolan is missing; in the book, he is not part of Ewen High. However, I miss a TK scene like the "Creepy Carrie" scene in the book and the movies. 21:36 Carrie getting thrown in the closet by her mother. One of the most convincing renditions of that scene. + 22:54 no "Don't Waste The Moon". It's a great song but it does not add much to the story. The revival does a better job with "The World According To Chris" (this is also where you could introduce Billy Nolan). + 23:09 yes, the roll call and the punishment dialogue from the 1976 movie! Always loved that one. I prefer it to the other musical in which the girls have to say sorry, and the revival in which the girls are working out before the verdict. + 25:42 yes, the book and movie ending of that scene ("this isn't over by a long shot"). + 31:55 the Kelly Fruit scene! I always loved that one, and I regret it from being missing or amended in the movies and other musicals. This is such a key scene because after it, Sue and Chris, who used to be best friends, have become arch enemies. - I would like to see Tommy saying "Scary White" and Sue replying "Don't call her that!", followed by Tommy: "She's used to it Sue!" + 38:52 I like the failed first attempt of Tommy asking Carrie, flowing into the "Unsuspecting Hearts" scene. Just like in the 1976 movie. In the revival, the order of events (Sue being sorry, the punishment, Carrie and Miss Gardner) seems less logical to me. - 43:46 Chris coming up with her plan. Why now? Carrie did not accept yet. I would move that further up, so it remains a mystery what Chris has in mind. In the revival, it is revealed at the beginning of act 2. I would place it at the end of act 1 and change the dialogue as follows: Billy: "What did that gym teacher say to you? I guess you can take your pig?" Chris: "Yes, she said that... Hey, that's it... That's it, Billy, that's it!" Billy: "What?" Chris: "Pig's blood for a pig!" (merciless reverb on the mic so the line will stick with the audience having a break) + 44:20 I like Tommy's second attempt set as a reprise of "Do me a favour". However, I would leave Chris out of the scene. Her favour was already fulfilled, because if Carrie said no, then Sue would be Chris's target. - 49:16 Margaret reveals the details of Carrie's conception. I prefer this to be at the end, just like in the book and the movies. - 51:06 the "Crackerjack" scene is too long. I prefer the revival's approach. I also think the revival outlined the prom night, the destruction and the aftermath better than the original musical. All in all, this is a great rendition of the musical and I enjoyed it very much.

This was an insanely brilliant production that I saw 4 times. The cast was phenomenal (and look at how far so many of them came from this - Tony nomination for Derek, major Broadway leading roles for Christy and Jeanna), and then of course there’s beautiful Marin who the most known cast member at the time. She gave Margaret a heart and soul, which is no easy task. RIP. 💔 Her “When There’s No One” broke me. This production was so special and made me weep at the end. So beautifully staged. Thank you so much for posting and bringing back this incredible theatrical memory!

This musical eats shit.

Best use of this material yet and perfect casting, without a doubt. And there’s never been a better Destruction (was never quite a fan of the group choreographed dance interpretation seen in most other productions) barring one thing: I wish it was clearer what happened to Tommy. Maybe it’s just the videography, but he just suddenly falls to the ground and no one reacts. I’m certain it will always be tough to outdo this production.

I know that Mulligan Scott Archives has a really good quality video of In that they used some clips of in a mash up video edit of In but they dont want to release the full video due to some people repsting without credit 🙄

I loved this show ❤️

Thank you for uploading this long lost memory!

You need to be a very specific age to remember this. Any other age group wouldn’t care! Nice to be among the 44-47 year olds 😂😂😂

Anyone else notice that Sue has a fake ponytail in Do me a favor it's super long but she has a bob in every other scene and this ponytail is at least mid back length also pretty sure in the broadway reviewers reel she doesn't have the long ponytail

Did he heil there, Jody?

Oh God this act one finale is so stunning. If I saw this in the theater I think my legs would have been shaking all the way through intermission.

Jiminy Cricket: You know how they think up these songs? They get ’em out of books! You can find many songs to sing from books. You see, books tell stories, and stories make swell ideas for many of your favorite songs. Uh, let me show you. Let’s see. “Jungle Book”, uh, “Peter Pan”, uh, there’s the one you’re sure to know, “Thomas & Friends”. Now you sing, too!

Yes

Im so glad I stumbled upon this. I have been in an Assassins obsession for while so having this production be recorded is a godsend. God I loved everything about this production. From the staging to the performers god this was so good.

This is so great

Thank You !!!!!!!

Yes, people complain about audience members recording a show, but sometimes that's only way it gets preserved. And we benefit.

HOW AM I ONLY FINDING THIS NOW I LOOKED FOR SO LONG

I like how you can hear the orchestra better than on the sound board recording

Will we ever see act 2

WHATTTTTTT I SPENT FOREVER LOOKING FOR THIS THING THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

Jiminy Cricket: Something sticky splashed on Evelyn. Dark Chocolate. Jiminy Cricket: That’s a bad word. Jiminy Cricket: Hmm. Poor Thomas. All those trucks and no sign of Edward.

Oh wow! Thank you. Great score and cast. It was never given a chance

Some pretty significant changes to the original french dialogue in spots but it definitely works. Not bad for a dub and a mostly not bad translation. Glad to be able to play this in the background while I'm doing other things and not be glued to subtitles

♥️I love that musical♥️

That “Dam-Nay-SHUNNNN” and “witch…WIIIIITTTTCCHHH!” are absolutely breathtaking. Thank God for the bootleggers ♥️

Your timing is immaculate

Great to see,wish it had the ending! Thanks for posting

THIS IS AMAZING THANK YOU SO MUCH. Now, if you have one of the musical with Estelle Parson's I would love to see it

Somebody please pick up the damn chair.

The mixing is quite amazing in this production

There was a local production in the 90s where, at the very end, after the gunshot, the stage went dark, above the stage was a silhouette of Kennedy’s coffin being pulled by horses with John John saluting it (like the famous photo. It was gut wrenching

that ending...

Thank you for posting this on July 4 🙏🙏

I don't know, I think the play works so much better when the balladeer transforms into Oswald. It really packs a gut punch.

The proprietor has a pretty weak voice....

The man playing the guitar sounded like Bob Dylan

This is concert style with the handheld mics

Wow, the Ballad Singer is tremendous. Not only a great voice, but great intelligence and clarity to each line.

1:19 Can anyone tell what they're saying here? I have no idea, but maybe someone else knows.

Surprised nobody’s really going Gaga for Alex brightman being here

Unique, brilliant show, but I have a complaint. Sorry-but many productions elect to use the actual Zapruder film which I simply do not want to watch under any circumstances, or in any context. At least Encores used stills. But still…

We saw Shuler Hensley (Czolgosz) as the Frankenstein Monster ("Young Frankenstein") and Marcellus ("The Music Man")/ Alex Brightman ("Zangara") also starred on Broadway in the title role as "Beetlejuice."

THE SLAP DURING EVE WAS WEAK???

The revival version of the destruction simply doesn't hit the same

It’s so odd the hear the audience laughing so much. It’s a very tragic story, especially Birdie’s revelation. Stapleton certainly didn’t play it for laughs, but the public found it funny for whatever reason.
