THE ME NOBODY KNOWS opened off-Broadway at the Orpheum Theater in New York on May 18, 1970 and played 208 performances.
It won the 1970 Obie and Drama Desk Awards including Best Musical. It transferred to the Helen Hayes Theater on Broadway December 18, 1970, subsequently moving to the Longacre Theatre and played a total of 378 more performances.
It received Five 1971 Tony nominations and closed November 28, 1971.
The show spawned two hits with “This World”, and "Light Sings". The Sweet Inspirations recorded both songs, then "This World" became a Top 10 R&B single for The Staple Singers, and “Light Sings”, became a pop hit for The Fifth Dimension.
The original cast went on to become stars including Irene Cara, Beverly Bremers, Hattie Winston and Northern Calloway.
Also in the original cast was Jose Fernandez, who went on to write "Fame: The Musical".
The SHOWTIME Television production included an introduction by James Earl Jones, and actress Tisha Campbell was among the cast members.
Donna Summer was in the first production in Hamburg, Germany.
THE ME NOBODY KNOWS has been performed throughout the world in cities such as Tel Aviv, London, Paris, Hamburg and (the then Apartheid) Johannesburg, receiving steady praise for the triumph of the human spirit that the show inspires.
The show continues to be performed throughout the country, and the music was recently celebrated in concert at 54Below in NYC.
A Broadway revival has been in the works for some time, hopefully to be realized, soon!

Damn shame they didn't cast Black girls as Annie back then. She woulda crushed it easy. You go gurl.
Kind of glad she wasn’t cast; if you heard all the horrible stories they put the child actors through smh molesting and abusing them for their parts in these big movie scenes smh
That’s exactly why they didn’t cast black girls as Annie back then.
Whole organic facts
ABSOLUTELY!!!!
I felt she would've been a shoe in to play Annie too just as soon as I watched her
Damn she been doing this all her life, I didn’t even know she started so young
Me neither
I thought she and Tichina Arnold started with 'Little Shop of Horrors' together. This is new info to me.
I been telling people ,I first seen her when she and tachina Arnold sanged in little shop of horrors when they were teens then watched her on a 80s TV series called rags to riches where she plays an orphan yes shes been at it very long time
@Japhya Senorta Lil shop of Horror
Me neither
Her talent was super advanced for her age.
OMG we are soooolate lmao
Sure was. Multi-talented.
Wow! She was something!
Not really. When you look at all these kids on Disney channel. She’s pretty average compared to them
@@Joe-lc3sv but this was along time ago. Kids wasn’t doing what she was doing on Disney channel back then. They still rarely do that lol
This is so Broadway worthy lol her stage presence was so advanced, even as a kid
It was a recast in the 1980’s from the original Broadway musical “The Me Nobody Knows” 1970💜
she could've played Annie she has the cutest Broadway voice OMG. ppl unrated her
definitely unsung
what year is this
You Read My Mind!
Sami '74
That's the first thing I thought of...Annie!
Man she had a grown women voice as a child WOW!!!!
Will Dawg and face
Grown woman*
Just amazing.
I remember it being like that coming up miss them times damn🧐👀
If you think grown women sound like this, stay away from kids.
She was definitely destined to be a star!! So adorable and confident. Her younger voice was stronger than most singers today
She was a cute little girl. She still looks the same to me.
Very much
She hadn't grown into her head yet Lol
@@CarlyDayDay periooddddd
Exactly the same lol that adorable smile
Tisha Campbell is a VETERAN in the biz!
Yo that push was PERSONAL😂😂
he pushed her way too hard!!!
I see a little bit of Jurnee Smollett!
Yes!!
I was just about to say this 😂
I know I'm late but one time on Jurnee's Instagram she shared a text from her mother who was basically saying Tisha looks like she could have been one of her kids lol
@@ThaBombDotOrg Ur right on time, I'm late seeing the other replies. I didn't have on my notifications on. Lol Sorry ladies
Yeah their both light skin girls with black moms but it pretty much ends there. Tisha is wayyyyy more talented. A triple threat,.. sing, dancer, actor! She has a totally booming and powerful singing voice. And she's a great comedic actress, even in this small clip.
I go back to Little Shop of Horrors and Rags to Riches, but this is way back.
I can watch little shop of horrors like I ain’t never watch it before and I only watch it for tisha and tichina.
Oh yeah... I remember Rags to Riches 😊
I loved Rags to Riches!
Rags to Riches was my show.
My childhood, oh the memories 🤩
She did well especially for her to be that young. She had coordination. Should have been a mega star.
Tisha is a mega star in Black Holywood. She's always been A-list to us.
@@BlakeGildaphish76 Yessir
@@BlakeGildaphish76 yess she has love her n tichina arnold
IS A MEGA STAR...... (not to late to delete this comment )....... [i know u meant well]
@@BlakeGildaphish76 exactly! We knew who she was and looked forward to seeing her act.
She was a Natural no wonder she is still Relevant gone girl Lol
Can we talk about how she was captivating even back the. Commanding the stage and those pipes! Man I have always been a fan! She is a beast! I remember seeing her for the first time on a show called Rags to Riches!
Yep! I saw her on Little Shop of Horrors first.
Tisha is a tripple OG. I remember her on the show Rags to Riches too.
Me too!
That was one of my favorite shows as a kid
I never heard of the show, but I'll research it. I had no clue she started so early. Amazing!
Yasss so many people don’t remember that show. I loved it.
Yes, I used to love that show.
Wow I didn't know Tisha Campbell did this wow she look so cute in this lol!
So adorable! Her personality hasn't changed at all. Hate there was so many things that prevented her from completely fulfilling all of her talents called for.
Like her husband who came in the picture and derailed her then divorced her 20+ years later with $7 in her name.😠 the things we do for love🤷♀️
@@psstpsstheyyou3517 Yes. He should have just stayed away if he knew he was nothing.
@@psstpsstheyyou3517what did he do to “derail”her career? She has a great career and resume.
awwwww she is soo cute. Her voice was strong af even then.
She still has the same voice and personality!😄❤
She had a very powerful voice and great stage presence!🥰
GIVE BIG BOY HIS CREDIT TOO... HE GOT SOME SKILLS!!!💯
He sure do
That’s a grown man
Retired football player
@@uncoverthetruth8365 DAMN HE WAS GROWN & RETIRED FROM THE NFL THEN 😳
Correct
Wow,,,the African American Shirley Temple. Nice Tisha.
@Returnofthebrotha3 And wth do you think an African looks like?
@Returnofthebrotha3 Lmao obviously because you don’t want an answer do you know what an African American is?
She is absolutely adorable! She is really talented & her big personality was there at such a young age. Amazing!
We went to Elmwood elementary school in East Orange, NJ back in the day.
I'M old😅
She's ALWAYS been a GREAT talent.
Awwwww awesome
Wow her voice was powerful and cute
She was destined to be a ⭐
She's always had a big personality. Very expressive! ❣️❣️❣️
Tisha was always talented. With a Big voice at such a young age. Go Tisha!!!
Tisha looks too cute in this
He’s not pushing her hard, she’s throwing herself its called performing.
Well she's doing an excellent job, because it looks like he's gonna shove her off the stage.
Yes thank you these freaking ppl and their lame sensitive comments..it's simply called acting lol
I thought I was crazy 🤦♀️ I was looking for the part where she was pushed hard 😅
@@lql1094 remember these stage plays are practiced over and over. When she’s pushed you notice the others performers catch her so it has to be done in a manner where she can reach them
He didn't push her hard at all.
Wow she did so good as a child. This was amazing. I’m sure her parent knew they had something special with her.
Now I see where dem house party moves came from!! Lol she kilt it go tisha&for da record tisha could sing then&she can sing now!! Always loved her
Wow she was so talented at such a young age
The young Tisha Campbell's voice is strong and powerful. I wish she would release another album. It's been 31 years since her last album.
Damn she was incredible as a young kid
Ikr
She is a real legend. Give her them flowers now
I’m shocked she kept going she was pushed hard 😂 😂. Beautiful cast, great throwback thanks RUclips
Let’s not forget she was also BOMB in Spike Lee SCHOOL DAZE!!!!!✊🏿💕💕😍😍😍💅🏿💃🏽
She sang her but off even at a young age!
HER HOME IS 15 MINS FROM ME. Meaning where she grew up in NJ!!
Kudos to Little Tisha for taking all that pushing and special kudos to the supporting actresses who made sure to catch her everytime. 👏
I could watch this video over and over....that Tisha was soooo adorable and talented!!!!!!.....
still talented now.
I loved her in Rags To Riches an adaption of Annie. Also in Little Shop of Horror. This scene reminds me of when she got older and played in School Daze by Spike Lee in the hair salon.
Lol wow, I had no idea she started out this young in entertainment. What a strong voice👍🏽
She was sssssooooo talented even as a youngster.
Tisha has always had command presence even as a child. She can steal a scene like this one or stand toe to toe with E. Murphy, M. Lawrence, D. Wayans, K. Hart. She also displays elite talents in House Party and Little Shop. A beautiful tripple threat who should be mentioned with the greatest female talents of our generation.
I love seeing things like this, some ppl really have been hustling and grinding for their dreams all their lives. Very talented
Wow Tisha!! I knew that she & Tichina Arnold were child performers but never saw any of their earlier work.
I always knew she could sing. But she can SANG, even as a kid. Amazing! 🤩
She was very very talented, even at an early age.
She’s absolutely adorable
Omg whaaaaaa???? I had no idea. Wow, there's so much talent here°°♡♡♡

Oh my so adorable. Her face doesn't change. Very cute
I remember her on a show called rags to riches back in the late 80’s.
Me too! It was about a rich guy that adopted some kids.
Yes she was performing before House Party! She was also on a show called Rags To Riches in the 80's. A veteran actress!
Wow! I thought I could only go as far back as House Party and School Daze. Real talent for real. So that's why we kept seeing her all these years. 🤯💯🔥
So cute!!!! ♥️ her so much. She needs her own show or one with Tichina. I love seeing them act together.
Tisha Campbell was talented even as a small child! I saw Tisha in person at Martin Lawrence's wedding 19 years ago.

This is cool. I always knew her career started in Broadway, but I never saw an actual stage performance from her before. This is legendary. She was already gifted at a very young age.

This was enjoyable I never knew Tisha Campbell started in this business so young.
Seen this show a long time ago on cable back in the early 80's. Wish I could find this version somewhere. Enjoyed it so much.

Oh my goodness! I used to have a corduroy dress like that in green. I used to love that dress. 😁
