I love the decision of Greg entering back into stage whenever something happens to him. I feel like it ads to his childish imagination and not knowing if he’s telling the truth or being a creative kid.
The Highwayman nailed it perfectly - it's like he stepped right out of the cartoon. The Queen of the Clouds CRUSHED her number. But when Greg sang the second half of Come Wayward Souls? CHILLS. Perfect way to show him succumbing to the Beast's power. As a former theatre kid I say brilliant production!
Just wanted to say thank you to all the views, like, and comments!! We are so overwhelmed with the love and support and we appreciate you guys so much!!
of course , its absolutely deserved !! everybody included is phenomenally talented and you should all be very proud of what you created together ! you did a fantastic job !
The way the beast was covering Greg with leaves while singing It sounded like a parent singing their child a lulaby to put the child to sleep, forever. It was so disturbing.
The lady singing as the queen of the cloud city did AMAZING Also the ones that did Beatrice and Jason Funderburker sounded exactly like the originals 😂
this is incredible! The Highwayman absolutely understood the assignment little disappointed that you had to skip over the ferry scene but i have no idea how you would logistically adapt the band scene to the stage lol
They had to skip Lorna and Auntie Whispers too! I think it all had to do with the frog tbh. They wanted him to be a stuffed animal so they couldn't have him sing or eat the bell.
I’ve read several comments, and I can’t believe nobody has mentioned the dynamic camera work in this production. It made the whole performance feel artistic and like the original. If it had just been a static camera in front of the whole stage it would not have been the same. Well done to the cinematographer.
The best part is, the show itself is basically an hour and forty minutes long, so turning the whole thing into a stage show is doable. This is almost the length of the show.
This production is so heartwarming and is a genuinely moving adaptation of one of my all time favorite animations. Fantastic work to everyone involved in this. You've made something really special.
This is a high school project?! You really knocked it out of the park, well done :) The detail put into the costumes, the cast selection, and sets/props really show how much passion went into this. A delight to watch.
an incredible job of playing Greg, I cant believe how well you translated his character. Very cool overall, this is such a good idea. Also, 10/10 highway man
1:06:21 BRAVO BRAVO👏 ENCORE👏 The queen of the clouds was absolutely beautiful! Where can we hear more of her work!? Also AMAZING play! This is one of my favorite shows and you guys did it justice!!!
Watching this as a play makes me think the original story was meant to be told this way. I always wondered why I felt a strange familiarity for the way the characters were overly expressive and had a penchant for song, now it makes sense.
My brother and I have been a fan of this series since it first aired on Cartoon Network all those years ago. To see the love and dedication to the series and how much it has grown is so cool to me. I watched this and I remembered how magical it was for the first time to see this. Thank you and I hope more people find this!
You all did an excellent job especially with the limitations at hand. Ever since OTGW came out I was thinking about how to transpose it into a stage play. It seems like it should make sense but it's such a hard task when you think about all the transitions and effects that are needed. Thank you all for putting it together it seriously means so much and I hope more people follow you in continuing to tell this amazing tale!
This is so amazing, especially the way the actors' voices in some cases sound sooooo much like the VAs! And the singing is top-notch! Definitely a good story for the stage
Tik Tok brought me here, and I’m so glad it did! This was beautifully staged! The vocalists were a joy to listen to, the whole cast brought home all the quirks and fun energy of these characters. This is so obviously a labor of love and was wonderful to watch!
Y'all got the synchronized clap!! That's how outstanding this was!! I feel like the YT algorithm was priming us for a few months for this. Thank you to everyone who performed and worked behind the scenes. Adding this to a playlist and sharing it!
I'm a simple OTGW enjoyer, if I see anything OTGW and especially fan made stuff (because all the ones that are fan made are a blast; for the ones I've seen), I instantly watch 👀
im late to this but this is just 👌wow and i love the singing in it come wayward souls was by far my favourite oh and also the highwayman and the person who plays the beast also did such a good job i love everything about this just this makes me so happy
This is such a great production!! The translation to stage was so natural, the story felt right at home. The songs were stunning and so were the costumes. Amazing job.
Wow. Just wow. The performances by everyone were so true to the original characters in the show. Amazing job to everyone who was involved on the stage and behind the scenes. The vocal performances were so fun, haunting and wonderful. Getting to see such a wonderful show get an adaptation with so much attention to detail in terms of mannerisms and outfits makes me so happy. I gotta say, this is some top teir work that I would absolutely love to have been able to see in person!!!
I'm not sure where this came from, but as a fan of over the garden wall I absolutely love this. Its an amazing idea, beautiful performance, and adorable costumes and stage work. Great job!
@@RunBayou i meant not sure why it was recommended to me really, don't watch over the garden wall on RUclips and definitely not into theater but I enjoyed this lol
youtube recommending me this just in time for the fall season is just too perfect. everything about this is just so perfect, I'm in complete awe. props to everyone involved in this. even the littlest details in Greg's character translated so well, wow just wow. Every year when I rewatch Over the Garden Wall I'm definitely seeking this out as well in my tradition.
WONDERFUL PERFORMANCE!! I’ve been watching all the updates on the tiktok since the project was just starting and I’m glad I was able to see the end results! Over the Garden Wall has had such an impact on my life and I was so touched to see this made by so many people that appriceated the haunting beauty of the show and put their passion and wonderful talents to make this beautiful adaptation while relating to the original work! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR PROJECT!!!
My spouse and I watch OTGW every year as avid animation lovers and working musicians. This happened to show up in the search and I could not be MORE excited for all of you and the dedication to doing this project. I hope Pat McHale reached out to you and offered thanks! Putting on performances is hard work. Be proud of your accomplishment!
This is just so fantastic. My name's Ethan and I've been trying to do something similar for years. I've been transcribing the music off and on, but I never got this far. Thank you for doing what I haven't and bringing my literal favorite show/movie ever to life :)
Oh my goodness! What a delightful surprise from my RUclips recommended! I absolutely loved this rendition of Over The Garden Wall! The costumes, actors, and stage setting were wonderful! I never thought of what a stage play would be like for this show, but you translated it beautifully! The Beast's performance was simply chilling. Absolutely adored every minute of this! I understand why Chapter Seven had to be cut, and was pleasantly surprised by how smooth the transition was! Amazing performance all around.
This was a golden find. I can't belive I haven't seen it yet. It's so good, I was smiling through it the whole time and got several times goosebumps. I'll be watching it fully on weekend but it's so great I can't wait, probably Will do that after the anual OTGW re-watch.
my heart literally stopped for a moment when i saw the title- like- i felt it stop- no joke!!!!! I LOVE THIS SHOW AHHHH YALL DID THIS SUCH JUSTICE AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
This was incredible!! Well done, everyone! I teared up when Beatrice left lol 😂 I can't believe this is a high school project, everyone did an amazing job! Edit: not high school, college! But still!
I’m still watching, and am on school time follies, but the teacher and her father are very good actors! Love the passion of the dad and the singing of the teacher! ❤
This was absolutely amazing y'all! So much talent on one stage. I need to rewatch Over The Garden Wall now, I forgot how much I loved it. So proud of each of you and our college.
Gonna be honest, I stumbled upon this expecting it to really struggle translating the feeling if animation to live action(a very difficult task) but I was BLOWN AWAY by the character acting and music! Great Job!
OMG, this was wonderful!!!! I loved how you adapted some parts to fit better in the play, especially the Old North Wind song, the dance was marvelous! I acted in a play of Over The Garden Wall too, in my school, and seeing this was sooo nostalgic, you guys nailed it! Thank you for this, this was truly wonderful! By the way, if you want to see my play, i can get the link 🦔
This was a fantastic production… Pain me the entire boat section with the frogs was cut, would have loved to hear over the garden wall the song but overall a great passion project.
I just wanna say, I love all of you!! Whoever took part in this, I absolutely adore you. Bravo to the whole cast and crew!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I saw this last year, and I feel so bad I’m commenting on this now, but I’m just back because it’s the 10th anniversary of Over the Garden Wall, and this is one of the best things I’ve seen in this fanbase. Once again, bravo to you all!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Oh my goodness, I was saving this in my 'Watch Later' playlist for when I needed a mental escape, and it did not disappoint. The costumes were beautifully done, and each performer did a truly wonderful job bringing this story to life in a way that was true to the series but still unique. I'll definitely be keeping this one in my back pocket for another rainy day. Thank you all so much for sharing your talents! Also, Malik Johnson's dancing? Immaculate. He ate and left no crumbs.
I love the decision of Greg entering back into stage whenever something happens to him. I feel like it ads to his childish imagination and not knowing if he’s telling the truth or being a creative kid.
Considering every fan knows every single piece of dialogue from the show, I bet memorizing the speech was the easiest part 😂 this is beyond wonderful
I love how the "most watched" part of the whole thing is the highwayman
As it should! Haha.
He nailed the movements so well
We know what we want.
Because he's the Highwayman!
now its the scene where greg dies
31:43 just making a timestamp to rewatch the highwayman scene because omg did the actor understand the assignment
It was incredible, I had high expectations and they were MET
The Highwayman nailed it perfectly - it's like he stepped right out of the cartoon. The Queen of the Clouds CRUSHED her number. But when Greg sang the second half of Come Wayward Souls? CHILLS.

The way the beast was covering Greg with leaves while singing It sounded like a parent singing their child a lulaby to put the child to sleep, forever. It was so disturbing.
The narrator should’ve worn a frog suit I think that adds to the mystery XD
The lady singing as the queen of the cloud city did AMAZING
Also the ones that did Beatrice and Jason Funderburker sounded exactly like the originals 😂
that was very surprising
Dude no one’s talking about the Old North Wind. They killed that.
this is incredible! The Highwayman absolutely understood the assignment
little disappointed that you had to skip over the ferry scene but i have no idea how you would logistically adapt the band scene to the stage lol
They had to skip Lorna and Auntie Whispers too! I think it all had to do with the frog tbh. They wanted him to be a stuffed animal so they couldn't have him sing or eat the bell.
@@sylph8005 They included "We're burglears! We came here to burgle you turts!" from that episode, though
Congratulations! Pat McHale (the Creator) loves your Show!

If it had just been a static camera in front of the whole stage it would not have been the same. Well done to the cinematographer.
Claire killed it with her singing truly amazing!
Awww thank you!!!
shut up she is magnificent
@@אלוןשיינפלד the comment is a compliment. Why are you upset
@@desertrose3511 im not upset i agreed with him
The best part is, the show itself is basically an hour and forty minutes long, so turning the whole thing into a stage show is doable. This is almost the length of the show.
1:21:09 had me coming apart. Her voice nailed it and really swept me up. So impressive
damnn thanks for this what an amazing moment
YT randomly recommended this to me and it was a joy to watch, everyone did an amazing job and the singing was beautiful!
This production is so heartwarming and is a genuinely moving adaptation of one of my all time favorite animations. Fantastic work to everyone involved in this. You've made something really special.
Ty!
God damn. Come Wayward Souls was phenomenonal
Listened to it like a dozen times. If you see her, give her a big hug for me
this is going to be a OTGW fan classic in years to come
This is a high school project?! You really knocked it out of the park, well done :)
The detail put into the costumes, the cast selection, and sets/props really show how much passion went into this. A delight to watch.
College!
Not high school
College senior project actually, but thank you!
Capstone is college
I love how they did a little shawl-sleeve combo for Beatrice's wings
YOUR VOICE FOR WURT WAS GREAT
an incredible job of playing Greg, I cant believe how well you translated his character. Very cool overall, this is such a good idea. Also, 10/10 highway man
1:06:21 BRAVO BRAVO👏 ENCORE👏 The queen of the clouds was absolutely beautiful! Where can we hear more of her work!? Also AMAZING play! This is one of my favorite shows and you guys did it justice!!!
agreed, can't choose word for discribe, voice, had chills

21:54 I like the choice of putting in the entire song. A overlooked song for sure.
This just makes me realize that a live action version of over the garden wall would be peek entertainment 🤯
this is so good, and a round of applause for the costume designer!!
Honestly, I'm surprised there hasn't been an official stage show yet
Me over here missing Auntie Whispers 😂
ur so right
and the song on the ferry
The vocal performances of everyone are so wonderful!!
Thank you so much!
This is so amazing, especially the way the actors' voices in some cases sound sooooo much like the VAs! And the singing is top-notch! Definitely a good story for the stage

This was beautifully staged! The vocalists were a joy to listen to, the whole cast brought home all the quirks and fun energy of these characters. This is so obviously a labor of love and was wonderful to watch!
Oh! And I also wanted to say how much I loved the way the narrator was used!! That was so creative and well written!
Makes for a perfect 10th anniversary show. Simply superb.
the highway man popped off
The people who made this really have a deep appreciation for the original
Y'all got the synchronized clap!! That's how outstanding this was!! I feel like the YT algorithm was priming us for a few months for this. Thank you to everyone who performed and worked behind the scenes. Adding this to a playlist and sharing it!
THE BEASTS VOICE!!!! MY GOD!!
INCREDIBLE!! The love and passion put into this project is so apparent, my highest of compliments to everyone involved!!
The Queen of the Clouds intro was worth the whole watch
“Ain’t that just the way” I LOVE THIS😭
I'm a simple OTGW enjoyer, if I see anything OTGW and especially fan made stuff (because all the ones that are fan made are a blast; for the ones I've seen), I instantly watch 👀
From a drama perspective, this is super cool! Love to see if this actually becomes an actual production.
I feel like I shouldn't watch this for free. Good job to everyone!
you guys could not have cast a better highway man that bit was perfect... cant wait to watch all of this later :D
im late to this but this is just 👌wow and i love the singing in it come wayward souls was by far my favourite oh and also the highwayman and the person who plays the beast also did such a good job i love everything about this just this makes me so happy
The Old North Wind dancing was fantastic! And the angel opera style singing was wonderful! I was so happy ❤❤
YES! Wait. This was one year ago? I thought this was recent! Thank you, RUclips recommendations!
REALLY LOVED THE HIGHWAYMAN PART, such an amazing performance!
when the guy started singing into the unknown, I also started to drop tears, i dont know why
As a theater kid and a large fan of Over the Garden Wall, this is amazing. You all did a great job
The old north wind number literally blew me away :0
I can't believe I haven't seen this before, great stuff!
This is such a great production!! The translation to stage was so natural, the story felt right at home. The songs were stunning and so were the costumes. Amazing job.
