    Wow!! Better than Broadway! Each one of those girls could really sing... Brilliant ....on the scale of a professional production. Wondering how many of those girls ended up pursuing musical theatre...

    At first I thought this was a particularly amazing production from Stratford East (East London) but this is Stratford Playhouse, an award winning theatre company from America. It is excellent. Strong, confident voices and wonderful and imaginative staging.

      Actually, Stratford Playhouse is award-winning, but it's a theatre program at a public high school in Houson, Texas

    Such a great way of incorporating the title song from the movie into the stage version!

    Fun fact- Bye Bye Birdie didn't have a theme song title until the producers demanded one for the movie adaption. It's interesting to see how subsequent theater adaptions have incorporated the add-on theme.

    Absolutely genius. I think this is a perfect version of the classic opening of Bye Bye Birdie! Very new, and inspiring especially the opening sequence of channel flipping with the old TV set.

    I was in a play of Bye Bye Birdie last month, and we did this opening, except we didn’t do the musical number, and the girls just sang the Birdie song instead. You know, the “We Love You Conrad, Oh Yes we do”

      I just finished doing it. We didn't sing the opening because of the line "you really turn me on". So unfair

    @kathrynberry7737 6 лет назад +5

    This is wonderful! And it was an excellent choice to ditch the annoying/whiny voices that are so often associated with the Bye Bye Birdy song

  • @NoahOren

    Who else thinks the reporter man in this scene is hilarious when he tries to snatch the microphone bank from the girls while they sing, and then he keeps getting knocked out of the way when the girls make a big gesture.

    This number is a much, much stronger opening number than "An English Teacher".

      Richard Berry English teacher follows it.

    • @hapgood22
      @hapgood22 4 года назад +1

      @@michaelwalters4705 I know, but I am saying that's it's a stronger choice to start the show with this, followed by English Teacher.

    is this in the actual musical or was it added? either way it’s genius

    I think the actor playing the announcer in this scene also plays Harvey Johnson in later scenes.
