With so much more to cover, why make this the last one? Why can't there be another episode (or two) to cover the modern era of Broadway? You even said that there's still so much more to talk about! Yes we need a reprise, and an encore!
they explained why
I definitely want to see the reprise. I know little of the topic; what's the significance of Andrew Lloyd Weber, or Sondheim, or other modern shows?
Funding.
@@timmcdaniel6193 PBS did a documentary series about this called “Broadway the American Musical”, and it covers Broadway's history from the Ziegfeld Follies all the way up to Hairspray. You're probably going to have to rent it from Netflix and it goes into far more depth than crash course can.
We'll miss you. This was such a great series. I learned so much.
*Sadly, slowly walks off stage singing* We'll meet again... don't know where... don't know when...
Last episode? noooo... But really, it’s been a good run, one of the best shows Crash Course has produced.
Where else could you get your crash course in Drama theory
I don't know why but I got so emotional at the end when he said "curtain"... :(
Because that, my friend, is how theatre should make you feel. ;)
We need more of the contemporary book musicals. Perhaps Crash Course Theater 2 with in-depth takes on classic musicals, or examination of the works of Sondheim, Rodgers & Hammerstein as a collection and more!.
As an old theatre post-graduate, I watched this waiting for the opportunity to leap into the comments and hit you with an 'Actually...' but that moment never came. This was a great series, and you even managed to teach this out-of practice stage hand a thing or two, and give me a couple of new perspectives on things I thought I knew.
Bravo.
Oh great, I just found out about this show. My timing is impeccable! At least I've got 50 videos to binge in a row.
I got strangely emotional during your final soliloquy. I guess the complex history and the passion that all these makers had through time just gets me tight in the feels. THE STAGE! IT'S TOO GOOD! IT CALLS ME!
This was a beautiful wrap (for now, we hope!) to this insightful, inspiring series. Please bring CCT back soon! Bravissimo.
Some ideas for the next Crash Course series:
1. Linguistics
2. Music (as I have seen suggested in another comment)
This series is still being used to help students in college theatre programs, me included! I would love to see more, since most intro theatre classes are now going into contemporary work (into the 2000s minimum)
I'm truly saddened that this is the final episode, it was a wonderful, informative and entertaining series. Well done Mike and everyone who worked on these videos, you've truly helped to reignite my passion for theatre.
And now it’s time for one last bow... for this season of theater in Crash Course. Thanks for the lessons, Mike. Please come back for another season/series in Crash Course
BRAVO! ENCORE!!! ENCORE!!! Seriously, it's always sad to see another course come to an end. Hopefully you come back for another course because I enjoyed this a lot more because of you.
I didn't fall asleep once, which for everyone who's ever sat through a 10am Theatre History course knows is the true high watermark of a great Theatre History course.
Will we see Crash Course Music? Was really looking forward to an opera series as well.
After this, I'd love to see opera done.
I agree. I fully understand WHY opera gets a bad rep - I"m a big fan of it (and I'm not a fan of other fans), but there were a TON of breakthroughs in terms of stage technology, musical styles, and story telling through it.
Hope we can get a 2nd series that talks about musicals into today, awesome contemporary playwrights like Suzan Lori Parks, and, well, an episode just on Angels in America.
I would love to talk about contemporary English theatre practices outside the US. Site-specific theatre, interdisciplinary theatre (maybe talk about Lepage?), outdoor theatre (the Aussies are masters at this large scale spectacle), the merging of circus and theatre (Cirque du Soleil and all those amazing Aussie circus companies), international co-creations, Latin American theatrical practices. There's so much.
I am so sad this is over! I loved it.
A future series suggestion: women authors through the ages. I know it’s rather niche but there are so many female writers that are constantly forgotten about in normal literature courses
One of the best Crash Courses ever! Standing ovation.
Oh you have only scratched the surface! Please do another series and explore some more!
Can we please get an encore? I'm not ready for this to end!
I only discovered this series a few weeks ago and I have a lot to catch up on but I wanted to comment on this final one by saying thank you for this series. This is a lot more comprehensive than the theatre history survey course I did 30 years ago and as a theatre professional, I love that this series exists to help learn more about this art form. Thank you for being entertaining and informative.
And if you do another season with contemporary practices, I really hope you look at the work being done in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India, Latin America, Germany. Heck the explosion across the African continent is worth a few episodes.
Encore! Encore!
*Standing ovation*
Aww this is so bittersweet ♥️ This is probably my favorite crash course series and it was the first I watched in real time, excitedly waiting for new videos each week. Thank you for all you’ve taught me and I can’t wait to see what you guys bring out next ♥️

Thank you so much for this series! And thanks to Mike for being such a wonderful host!
Farewell Mr. Regnetta, It was fun while it lasted. In a way, this was like an alternative observation of world history. It takes videos like these to realize how much influence theater and drama has on the opinions of a Nation, therefore has an influence on politics even on an international scale. Entertaining as it was educational 🙂
Another great course, Mike -- I look forward to your next project.
Noooo! This has been amazing! Please do another series on this! And thank you for teaching us and entertaining us. You guys are awesome! :D
"First Guys and Dolls, and then Artaud" truer words have never been said. I've loved this series- it's been wonderful and informative and really fun. And thank you for including an episode on Artaud, not enough people embrace ritualistic madness any more! Thank you so much :)
Thank you, CC.
This had been entertaining and enlightening.
Thank you, Mike. All the best to you in all your endeavours. Hope to see you and CC together again for more awesome content.
Thanks so much for a great series! I looked forward to a new video every week, and loved every bit of it❤️
Aww dang it. This is the second or third episode I've seen, and you had me hooked. Hopefully I can see more of you in the future. Thanks for the work you've done!
So well done! I truly enjoyed every episode and learned a lot. Hate to see you end it. But, wow, 50 episodes was a magnificent effort, I’m sure. Congratulations!
This series was so good! I learned more here than in any of the theatre and Broadway classes I took in high school and college combined! thank you all so much!
Thank you to everyone who worked on this series. It was a great ride!
It has been a great series Mike! Thank you all!
This is one of the few crash course series (outside of the first runs) I watched every episode of... bravo!
This was absolutely one of the best crash course series I have seen! I love theatre and this has only made my love stronger, thank you
Oh PIFFLE!! I've enjoyed this so much! Thanxk you, Mike Rugnetta et al.
I'm gonna miss both Yorick and Mike. Thank you for this wonderful, insightful, and not to mention funny series. I wish you well.
Thanks, Mike Rugnetta! This was perfect to accompany my year-long theatre history course in grad school. I appreciate your perky, expert approach!
I'm in tears. This was awesome. CrashCourse is the best edutainment.

That las bit really expressed well how much you love the theater. Thank you for this series.
I so hope you'll be back soon Mike! I absolutely loved this series so thank you SO MUCH to everyone working on it
This was an awesome series. Once again, great job Mike! Can't wait to see what's next, and speaking of myself, the original movie version of Annie was how I started to get into theater
That was a great video series Mike and the rest of the team, a lot of valuable gems to found here. 👏 😎
The last episode? How about another encore? Like, a season-long encore? We love this show!
I’ve enjoyed every single episode! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the Broadway book musical. It really made me think about how much our industry has shifted since the early to mid 1900s.
Thank you its been a wonderful series.
Crash course, thank you.

All great things must come to an end. Thanks!
OH NO I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S DONE!! Thank you so much for being so amazing and teaching us so much, Mike is my favourite CC host!
Book Musicals, the gateway drug to theatre. Well put.
Looking forward to your next course!
Encore encore! I only got into this series this January, but what a great series! Congrats
Thank you so much, guys. It's been an awesome journey.
Sad to see this end, but I guess all good things must come to an end. I loved this course and I look forward to seeing what else you have planned for us!
Really, seriously enjoyed that. Series two, front and centre please!
ENCORE! ENCORE! ENCORE!
Brava! and thank you for the amazing series x
Catch me getting emotional about theatre and art 😭 honestly though, thank you so so so much for this series, it’s made me so happy and I love it so much. I really appreciate crash course and this whole series has been a celebration of the art that is so dear to my theatre kid heart. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Great job Mike !!! Looking forward to future bits on Crash Course with you.
Another great crash course series! Bravo!
I loved this series!! Thank you!!!
Thank you, Mike and company. I liked it.
I loved this series of crash course!! 100% down for an encore 😊😊
Thank you for an amazing series!
Thank you so so much for this! As a distant education student without any teaching assistance, this entire crash course on drama helped me a lot in my exam. I just finished writing my final sem paper and I am so much grateful to you for this wonderful presentation of such a vast topic.
Thank you so much. This Crash Course was so inspiring to me
Thanks Mic, Yorick, et al. Thoroughly enjoyable, entertaining, and (darest I say it) edumachational. Once again, ta muchly.
👏👏👏 MIKE RUGNETTA IS A NATIONAL TREASURE 👏👏👏
Thanks guys. I learned a lot about the theater.
Encore!
I am so ready for this episode... go Broadway musicals!!!
I didn't think I would but I really enjoyed the series. Well done and bravo!
AMAZING SERIES! I LOVED IT. IT WAS VERY EDUCATION, FUNNY AND VERY PLEASANT TO WATCH. THANK U!
I enjoyed this so very much!! I am still waiting for the crash course Music history thought. I actually took a class of that nature in collage, and I think it would be so much more fun with Crash Course! Although taking it with an old hippy who happens to teach Geography was pretty great too. Until next time....
Thank you so much for this series! I passed my Theatre Praxis exam with a lot of help from this Crash Course :)
encore!!!!
I will miss this CC. It was a bright jewel of my subs.
Thank you and best of luck in the future.
Nice work sir. My compliments to the crew as well.
I cant believe its over! Ill miss seeing these videos
7:12 LOL no offence taken. I love how he said okies and I'm like " dats me! "😝😂
I’m doing my own High school show rn, Chicago. This was an awesome series and I’ve been waiting for this episode for so long
Thanks for another excellent Crash Course
Oh wow I can't believe we're at the end already... Its been such a great ride, I love the way you talk so passionately about theatre! As a theatre student myself I've found this all so helpful and as a nerd I died ahaha
This has been such a great CC series. What will I watch every Saturday morning now? I hope you do something equally as interesting next, Mike.
Encore Encore Encore!!!
I learned so much listening to this one!
Great series!
I HAVE WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS
"First Guys and Dolls, then Artaud" - very nice. I was in a production of Oooooklahoma! (where the wind come swiftly down the plain!) when I was 14 (33 years ago) and I can still remember every word from every song - and I'm not even American :-).
Harrigan? Is that:
“H, A, double-R, I, G, A, N spells Harrigan
Proud of all the Irish blood that’s in me
Divil a man to say a word a’gin me...” GM Cohan
yeeeah, i've been waiting for that all day!
👏👏👏 Until your next series, Mr. R.
Bravo!
