That speech and song at the end just made me cry my eyes out. The passion everyone has for theatre, the connection and joy it gives people, that will never go away. 💙💙
the difference in carries emotion hearing the prologue for the first time after quarantine and the last time before going into tier three is so heart wrenching. but we will all be back soon ❤️
Carrie, seeing you sad makes me sad. Honestly I've had such a bad day but this comment section, and vlogmas makes my mood go completely up and I feel so much better thank you Carrie and the hopefuls. Remember you are valid and loved and beautiful:)
this is so frustrating and heartbreaking, you put it perfectly in your last video “I just want the rules to make sense” so so true, absolutely crying and had goosebumps in ‘one show more’😭sending love to everyone reading this💗
absolutely heartbroken for you Carrie, and all performers during this time. I only hope people don't begin to turn on each other in anger and frustration, but instead find comfort in knowing they aren't alone in their hurt. Sending love to every single person in the world who is hurt by the virus and how their government is handling it. Please choose love and kindness for those around you, even when it is hard. In the wise words of High School Musical, we are all in this together xx
Carrie, it is so sad that the theatre has closed again. So many precautions have clearly been taken. To put it in perspective, I am a nurse in the community and have only been tested once since the beginning of Covid-19. Colleagues have been tested positive and we don’t have Covid bubbles so still expected to work. For the theatre industry doing so much to prevent anyone from catching it, it seems so silly to shut your doors again. I hope you will be open again soon and I hope I can come and watch you for the first time one day! ❤️
I have been told by many nurse friends that they are not tested regularly! If hospitals don’t require their staff to test regularly and theatres are doing that willingly, it should show how important safety is to the theatre staff/performers. So very sad
@@baylay1062 in the hospitals they have Covid tests readily available to be tested once a week. Unfortunately in the community we don’t even have the option to be tested! I think they should be mandatory. But I agree with you - it’s taken a lot more seriously in places like theatres!!
@@annawinn1001 Can I ask which country you're in? Seems absurd that you shouldn't be tested more often. I'm a nursing student doing a rotation in an old folks home and I get tested once or twice a week.
I know you talked about scrapbooking your wrist bands, but I think they would also be cool in a fillable Christmas bauble. My mother-in-law filled one for us with little things from our wedding and it was super sweet. We don't have a tree so I haven't pulled it out in a couple years but I know it has a paper napkin because my husband chose ones with a really pretty color swirl, and a lucky penny that she thinks was a sign from Grandpa, who died 3 months before the wedding.
My favourite thing about this vlog is that while all of us in the audience, and Rob himself, were crying through Empty Chairs, Carrie was ranting at her laptop in her dressing room 😂 (Also I may have just sobbed again while watching this entire vlog remembering how emotional last night was 😭😭)
As someone who also works alongside actors and in the theatre and entertainment industry this broke me. Alfie’s “One Show More” hit me right in the feels and I’m sobbing. Theatre will be back. It has to be. Stay strong Carrie.
Being there last night was something else. I wept from start to finish and the atmosphere in there was just incredible! We were dress circle c28 and felt so safe inside with so many measures in place- so much more dangerous one street over where it was rammed full of people!! Thank you for such an incredible performance last night and a show I’ll never forget xxx
Seeing this at the end of 2023 and knowing Carrie was not back and left a show she loves for a project where she had such a negative experience makes it even sadder
I feel so incredibly lucky to have been in the audience last night. I should have been starting a Stage Management degree at RADA this year at 27 years old. I am in love with this industry and it is completely heartbreaking to see it treated like this. I hope you’re doing okay. We will be back x
hearing an entire ensemble sing in a show always makes me emotional when i’m in a theatre, but the ending made me even more emotional even though i’m watching it through a screen. it all feels so big and it sucks. hope you will be back very soon.
I was prepared for this to be emotional and yet I still cried 💔 The passion in the singing and speeches and the cheers from audience just shows how powerful theatre is and I can’t wait for the day you can come back again, even stronger ❤️
Heartbreaking that only a couple weeks ago, you were tearing up out of happiness at the opening statements, and now you’re tearing up out of sadness. I’m sorry you’re all going through this. This whole year has just been whiplash after whiplash. So unfair. But you’ll all be back sooner than you know, I’m sure 💕
Incredibly moved by this, I cried at the end. As someone that adores the theatre I am sad, have been sad all year. I cannot imagine the pain this is causing everyone involved in the industry. Truly thinking of you, and can’t wait to see as many shows as I can when the situation allows it x
When Carrie and Shan started singing the finale, I broke into floods of tears. I pray that theatre will be back soon for us at home and for every person in the performing business, be it front of house, back stage or the actors themselves.
Haven’t done a show in over a year :( but whenever I’m in a show I always pack everything up while I’m waiting to go on at some point in act 2 so I can just get straight home once the show finishes. I saw you doing the same and it made me feel so warm and a bit sad cause that’s such a tiny ritual that I always loved. It’s those small things that I miss the most about theatre. Gosh. I just ache all over when I think about how long it’s been since I’ve been on stage. :(
People need entertainment like theatre more than they need pubs open! The effect on an audience when that music starts is amazing and emotional. What you have done during those past 10 performances is amazing in the circumstances. Such a great company - such a phenomenal musical experience.
Oh man. Your frustration walking down oxford street resonated so much. I’m a teacher and my fellow teachers and I have been constantly enraged and baffled by this government’s mishandling of the pandemic. And while our jobs have put us and our loved ones in danger and the workload has doubled, at least we haven’t been stopped doing the thing we love for no good reason. Sending so much love to those in the arts x
I could listen to that little 2 second clip of Carrie singing the epilogue all day. I knew this would make me sad, did not expect to fully cry at this video.
I live in Australia and to see this continue to happen not only makes me cry but makes me angry that you all have to live through this again. I had my first bigger show canceled on me in March so I understand all the feelings. I am lucky that we here are able to do shows again but that does not make your situation any worse. Continue to be strong! Be brave! Much love xx all the socially distance cuddles. Sing in the shower for the all people who won’t get to see that show!
Absolutely sobbing by the end of this video. It’s unbelievable that theatres have had to shut yet shopping centres are still open. However this closure will just make the return even more exciting and special.
My heart is absolutely breaking for you all. I am holding onto all sorts of hope for you all and sending it from New York. Thank you for being a bright spot in an otherwise bleak year.
Watching this in literal tears for you guys. It sucks so much that schools and shops are open but you can’t do what you love and perform and give people hope
8:24. That’s when I broke 💔 I’m an actress in my second year of drama school and the uncertainty is terrifying right now, but those screams and applause were magical. I can’t wait for the next time I can see a live show. I really feel like we’re in 1 last push now💓💓💓
I'm normally a silent viewer but oh my did this get me. The irony of this gov - being able to walk through filled streets while theatres have to close again. I hope you'll all be back there soon and we'll all be safe again. I'm not crying..you are!
Carrie that was so moving . I couldn't agree more that the streets are scarily overcrowded & people are not wearing masks. I was at the matinee performance on Saturday 12th December and felt far safer in the theatre than outside on the street or in any shops. It's all so wrong to close the theatres. I want to thank you & all the rest of the cast and everyone involved with the show for all the hard work that's gone into entertaining us musical theatre lovers. We WILL be back.💕💕👏👏👏👏👏
Just sitting here crying listening to the curtain call and then you hit us with "one show more". Lordy, I love theatre and can't wait until all of you amazing folks are back on stage
My heart goes out to you, Carrie (and all the cast and crew of all the shows)! I truly cannot imagine what it feels like to have gone through the ups and downs of this time. I am also so grateful how you expressed your emotions in this video. Of course we can try to look at the bright side of things, but it’s so important to validate and acknowledge that these feelings of disappointment and sadness and anger are all real and that we can feel them all and still have hope in the midst of it! Thank you for this , Carrie! I’m sad for now as well, but I am hopeful❤️
I wasn’t feeling sad about my own ‘break’ from doing amateur musical theatre until I saw myself reflected in your emotions. My last show was in September last year, and I stepped back because of my mental health, I was going to go back in June, but obviously couldn’t. And until now I was doing okay with this extended break, because I KNOW I needed it. We’ll all be back, I hope.
oh my god i don’t know if i’ve ever cried like this at a youtube video but it’s just so much more than that. so grateful you were able to perform even 10 shows and MUCH hope that you’ll be back. we love you so much carrie.
So heartbreaking for London to shutdown again. From all of us across the pond in New York City, we're with you all!!! Live Theater will be back. We're not giving up.
I'm a Brit living in Boston, USA and I cannot believe how busy Oxford Street is... absolutely bonkers. Downtown here is EMPTY - as it should be given the current situation. I'm so sorry that you've had to stop working. I'm a teacher and we're having to go completely remote for January and I'll miss being in school so much. I'm positive theatre will be back, and I hope it is soon
Sobbed for you hearing you all sing “one show more”. Hope it’s not long until theatres are open for you all once more. Missing live theatre more than I ever thought I could!
Totally feeling your sadness. Last day at school today, and at the staff gathering our head teacher mentioned that we may not be fully reopening- closing all year groups except Year 11, everything else will be online. I'll still get to teach, but it's just not the same as being in the classroom and being able to joke with the kids and dance around the room and brighten their day. They won't see their friends again for a good couple of weeks, maybe even months, and there will be kids stuck in abusive homes, being physically or emotionally abused or just neglected. Worst of all, I know which kids they'll be. As exhausted as I am, I'm so miserable that term is over and that I'm not in work where I can help them. We all just need this shit show to end so we can have our lives again.
When you all sang 'one show more' [insert many, many crying emojis]. It made me cry on BGT and now again. I moved to London last year and was so enjoying being able to go to the theatre and sit in the cheap seats after work and I so miss it. Fingers crossed it won't be long before we're all back doing what we love again
Your vlogmas has really given a personal face to the news of theatres closing and highlighted just how heartbreaking it is. They say it on the news and it's like 'oh okay they;re closing but we watch you here and really understand exactly what that means to people in the industry.
I barely have words to describe what this video makes me feel. I miss the stages so much, both watching and performing, by being in Brazil I still haven't been able to perform this year nor to go back to theatre college presential classes. Few theatres are reoppening now, with half capacity or less, while malls have being full for months. Wish you best of luck Carrie, absolutely love your videos. As the new year approaches I believe it'll bring us all more hope and new perspectives to the entertainment industry.
This made me so emotional oh my god... I feel so sad for you and your fellow actors, stage crews, musicians... everyone! But this video also has a lovely sense of hope about it! You will be back ❤️
may be having a breakdown right now at the 'one show more' but we are fine, i feel so privileged to have been able to see this and it is just heartbreaking to see it being shut down so soon it is a real disgrace on the government, i have never felt so safe inside before and i hate the fact that they believe that the shows should be shut down. But we will be back and we will be back stronger than ever. Love you all i am now going to go and cry x
I had the absolute pleasure of being in that theatre and it was really interesting just to see this little bts - Thanks Carrie! I could see just how upset you were and so many members of the cast consoling you, wish I could have given you a big hug!
I got surprisingly choked up by this. I know cases are rising and sacrifices need to be made but it’s so bloody unfair that pubs and restaurants and shops can be open yet theatres are closing and we can’t see our nearest and dearest. Sending lots of love x
I very much will be there in the darkness of the audience as soon as you will all be back and I'll be able to safely go back to London (from Paris). Sending you all of the love possible !
Theatres all over the country have had to close at the most critical time of the year for the industry. It’s sad to see the Westend going the same way - hopefully not for too long!!
Just chills, the amount of emotion and hope and determination this video captured. Thank you for sharing those bits of song with us. I am brought to tears.
"One show more"

I wasn't able to listen to carrie when he was singing in the background!
“Empty chairs and empty tables where my friends will sing no more” is just too sad of a lyric to listen to rn 😔
Haven't got to that part yet but read this comment and am already sobbing 😭
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how well Shan and carrie's voices matchhh 😭❤️
Yass

I miss the stages so much, both watching and performing, by being in Brazil I still haven't been able to perform this year nor to go back to theatre college presential classes. Few theatres are reoppening now, with half capacity or less, while malls have being full for months. Wish you best of luck Carrie, absolutely love your videos. As the new year approaches I believe it'll bring us all more hope and new perspectives to the entertainment industry.
Absolutely balled my eyes out through this... sending all the love to everyone in theatre 💕
Watching this now in July 2021 is just as heart breaking and upsetting but it's so amazing to see shows opening up again now ❤️
I cant quite believe how sad this makes me
Goosebumps. Crying yep
This made me so emotional oh my god... I feel so sad for you and your fellow actors, stage crews, musicians... everyone! But this video also has a lovely sense of hope about it! You will be back ❤️
Sobbed all the way through this
may be having a breakdown right now at the 'one show more' but we are fine, i feel so privileged to have been able to see this and it is just heartbreaking to see it being shut down so soon it is a real disgrace on the government, i have never felt so safe inside before and i hate the fact that they believe that the shows should be shut down. But we will be back and we will be back stronger than ever. Love you all i am now going to go and cry x
I had the absolute pleasure of being in that theatre and it was really interesting just to see this little bts - Thanks Carrie! I could see just how upset you were and so many members of the cast consoling you, wish I could have given you a big hug!
I got surprisingly choked up by this. I know cases are rising and sacrifices need to be made but it’s so bloody unfair that pubs and restaurants and shops can be open yet theatres are closing and we can’t see our nearest and dearest. Sending lots of love x
I very much will be there in the darkness of the audience as soon as you will all be back and I'll be able to safely go back to London (from Paris). Sending you all of the love possible !
Theatres all over the country have had to close at the most critical time of the year for the industry. It’s sad to see the Westend going the same way - hopefully not for too long!!
Just chills, the amount of emotion and hope and determination this video captured. Thank you for sharing those bits of song with us. I am brought to tears.
