that was really really good! There was lots of movement, but never more than needed, the acting was high energy, and there was some beautiful choreography! That didn't look like a high school production, that looked professional. really really great job!
You got vital energy you guys and that’s why I’m optimistically inspired because I want to be the biggest star in the world. I love acting, comedy, directing, writing, dancing, singing, and all of visual arts to become one. May the optimism be with you, guys! #westsidestory
Really impressive lads :) Fair play!! From watching the other videos i think Action and Riff have a lot of talent in particular but overall i think the production is of a very high standard, would of loved to have been apart of it! I just wish i saw it live haha
Great performance, camera work and editing! How many cameras were you shooting with? I am shooting and editing HS plays as well and this is good stuff.
+Bill Tsai - Thanks - the Stratford Theater program is really fantastic - it's been fun watching these kids perform. I shot it with 3 cameras - but truth be told it was stitched together from several different performances - the camera operators weren't on headsets together so it took a couple of passes for cameras to get the rhythm of the scene.
Fantastic as always from these kids...Sondheim said he wanted to end the song with "gee offeicer Krupke f@@@ you...but the powers that be gently talked him out of it
hopegirl518 Ashlynn This and “Cool” trade places in the movie. In the play, Cool is sung in Act I by Riff, Krupp’s in Act II by Action. Sondheim always thought it Cool fit better in Act II (after the Rumble) than a comic number and the people who did the movie agreed. Flipping spaces if the songs also meant switching singers.
Tim R it was good choice to switch about it. If you think about it, a group of young adults, on the run from the cops after witnessing 2 murders, are not likely to stop in front of the fence and sing some silly comedic number. What they would do, is sing Cool.
This was really great apart from the larger dude with the glasses who does the judges part. Everyone else was so so perfect and brilliant, all have a future in acting and very talented. Just let down by that one dude. That bit where he’s lying on the box doing a robotic seal impression
That guy with the red hair is a great performer. I think he has a future in theater ahead of him...if he hasn't done more already.
Thank you im a flight attendant now but i miss theatre a lot
@@codyfinger4630 That comes as no great surprise. Airlines only hire the cutest guys to be flight attendants.
@@codyfinger4630 are you still trying to do theatre?
Is no one gonna give credit to the guy who's playing Baby John?
Damn that old woman voice was perfect.
Read this comment as it came up lmao
that’s what i’m saying

The actor who plays Action is fantastic.
That's my favorite song from West Side Story period 😂👌🏻 and they did amazing! Totally on point !
All the cast of young men did an excellent job, not one among them was a slacker ! Great show guys !!
What as great performance. I come back to it every few months because it's so enjoyable. Must be a great school.

It's excellent, as is America from the same production. Hope to see more videos from this show.

when someone calls one of the drama kids weird
Is this high school just for kids with artistic talent?
Just a regular high school...that happens to have a really, really good theater department.
