I'm sooo happy Lauren plays a girl in this. And the lead even. She's a great actress/singer/dancer, but I was growing tired of seeing her portray Malfoy-light in every single Starkid show (besides Starship where she was amazing!) I mean, even her ensemble-parts in Twisted were called boys for no single reason other than to have Lauren portray a boy again.
Well she was a village girl and played Maleficent in Twisted. She also played a female character, Tanya, who was one of the leads in Little White Lie. (Plus Taz and Buggette, which you mentioned from StarShip)
Omg I'm SO flipping excited!!!! "I don't care where the sun goes at night, he's an asshole!" I do love all the other musicals, but like everyone else, I'm excited to see this one as it showcases some of starkids most talented females (which is all of them!)
You realise they streamed the show on a website called Gigity where you can buy a ticket and watch the show via the stream (either live or any other day/time you want & as much as you want). In fact you can still buy one of the performances of the show (or multiple different performances of it) on their Gigity profile > Gigity.tv & search for team starkid. I'm rewatching one of the ones I bought right now :)
Okay, I was gettin' REEEEAL worried it wouldn't be posted to youtube eventually. It's like... Doesn't Starkid know they are the only source of sustenance for my endless hunger for musical theater?
Ryan Isbelle really!? is she in a fair amount of scenes? I think she's my favorite newer starkid right now. She's definitly top three with Joe and lauren. I'm sorry I'm fangirling something fierce right now.
I would say the theme is pretty cool....but Starkid could make a musical about anything and still make it amazing. They could do a paranormal/horror comedy musical, and still make it completely memorable!
SO COOL OMG! =) I love that the main focus is on female characters this time, and i love that lauren and meredith play them because they are so awesome =)
Look it's true that musicals are cheesy and that Starkid is but there's a line. As a rule Starkid musicals are cheesy in a parody way. This just looks like straight cheesy. Musicals are cheesy but this looks more cheesy than usual. I wouldn't have pointed it out if it didn't seem that it was more cheesy than usual
Pretty much all Starkid musicals, at least the ones I've seen and/or love dearly, have plenty of humorous moments, but also plenty of heartfelt moments. That just means that the scriptwriters (playwrights?) know how to make their intended audience laugh and cry. I'm not sure about what you mean by "cheesy". I would hardly even call the musicals "predictable", because the plots never seem to go the way my brain thinks they will. So, when you're wrapped up in a story you suspend belief in but still find endearing, you feel for characters you like that go through struggles. Plus, most are parodies of some existing thing, whether it be a movie, video game. genre, etc. Silly, yes. Cheesy, no. Loveable, heck yes.
barbaro267 it just looks filled with cliches and an obvious plot that's been done so many times before. Usually I don't feel that way with Starkid musicals but this feels so much different
Kathrin Rüdiger maybe look online? I'm sure there's a group of German starkid fans seeing as they went to ring con or whatever the Lord of the rings convention is called?
During their livestream to raise money for this show, somebody said she would donate $100 if they used the word "rapscallion" in the musical. I love her mind. :)
'I believe that if we burn enough things we can change the climate permanently' 😂😂
Abi hooj there are so many good lines in this show
Zazzalil was Right
CLARK BAXTRESSER AS HIMSELF
The greatest character in the history of theatre.
Loose Cannon Cop Who Doesn't Play By The Rules I AM READY!
He's been on Earth since the dawn of time apparently haha.
That can't be Lauren she's not casted as a little boy
Lauren does incredible in this!
???? She has literally played so many other characters other than boys!!!
I'm sooo happy Lauren plays a girl in this. And the lead even. She's a great actress/singer/dancer, but I was growing tired of seeing her portray Malfoy-light in every single Starkid show (besides Starship where she was amazing!) I mean, even her ensemble-parts in Twisted were called boys for no single reason other than to have Lauren portray a boy again.
Well she was a village girl and played Maleficent in Twisted. She also played a female character, Tanya, who was one of the leads in Little White Lie. (Plus Taz and Buggette, which you mentioned from StarShip)
Amy R -_- it was a joke
And Clark Baxtresser as himself. I died
Zoe Man me too 😂
One day I'll get down to see these in person, one day.
WeepingAngel Lex same. Saw it on livesteeam bit definitely want to see a show of theirs live
Did you make it? 👀
Omg I'm SO flipping excited!!!!
"I don't care where the sun goes at night, he's an asshole!"
I do love all the other musicals, but like everyone else, I'm excited to see this one as it showcases some of starkids most talented females (which is all of them!)
I can't believe we are about to see a shirtless Clark Baxtresser in HD. A happy new year it will be indeed!
Tess Elder I know right omg
SHERLOCK SEASON 4 AND FIREBRINGER ON THE SAME DATE
WHO NEEDS ANYTHING ELSE
MY LIFE IS COMPLETE
AHHHHHHHH
2017 is shaping up to be a great year
Oh my god, so exited for new year...
the sound I made after watching this was not human
The last time I was this early, I thought Hermione could draw. This looks amazing! I can't wait to see it. Keep up the great work STARKID!
People who were able to go to this are blessed! No, I'm still in fucking Europe waiting for Starkid to come here...
Loes van der Meer at least you're pretty likely to be visited. I'm in fucking NEW ZEALAND. No one ever comes here. Not even Dan and Phil

Lily-Rose Depp but I don't have money to spend on things like this
***** Yes!
Loes van der Meer I'm in Australia!
Alright, gang! We hope you enjoy the trailer and the album! It's available RIGHT NOW!
itunes.apple.com/album/id1179224504?ls=1&app=itunes
Team StarKid I did enjoy it!!
I'm waiting for that DVD!
Team StarKid I wish you guys would make your albums available through Apple Music . . .
#i cannot wait :D Happy Christmas and Happy New Year.
I just realised Sherlocks back too! 2017 should be good!
I saw this show in July, and it was hilarious. Easily one of their best musicals!
So happy I was able to go to this the day it was filmed! Chances are, my obnoxious laughing will show up somewhere on the recording! 😂😂😂
The puppets look amazing! You guys have come so far from having Nick and Jamie Lyn help Gollum flash the audience.
I wish the LOTR one was filmed...
Watched the trailer a thousand times already, and I stopped counting how many times I've listened to the album! I CANNOT WAIT
Ten dislikes? DAMN THAT G.L.E.E.
They make twisted abominations of everything!
This is all your fault Ja'far!
Thanks Hermonie!
Just when I thought I was over Starkid, they rope me back in with this. I can't wait! It looks so good!
I love all of the new actors!
Especially the narrator!
😍😊
She was hilarious!
Godzillasaur Buttersworth and the woman who played Chorn floored me with her voice!
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR LAUREN TO LEAD A PLAY FOR SO LONG PEOPLE! Yessssss💙💙
"I believe, If we burn enough things, we can change the climate permanently."
Okay, I was gettin' REEEEAL worried it wouldn't be posted to youtube eventually. It's like... Doesn't Starkid know they are the only source of sustenance for my endless hunger for musical theater?
this show has some of the BEST music of starkid in my opinion
Maddie hickey the woman who played Chorn floored me with her voice
Apparently you guys should go watch starship.. to the ones saying Lauren never has played a woman before.
JncGwen Or Little White Lie.
Or Spies Are Forever
Or Buggette....wait....
its a joke
THIS WAS SO GOOD I'M SO PUMPED TO RELIVE IT
I'm crying. WHY AM I ALWAYS CRYING?!
The harmonies are beautiful, Lauren Walker looks incredible, the story is amazing...I just can't wait for New Year's Day!
Lucy Moon Lauren Lopez
karenalyse No, Lauren Walker, the new StarKid member. Her character is fantastic, that's what I was referring to :)
Lucy Moon ohhhhhh haha that makes more sense
karenalyse it gets so confusing now that there are even more repeated names
The girl gang........and Walker XD
......and Brian
+Tanya M ... and Joey
KoolJann I was talking about 2:13 but yes😂
And Clark.
Hope Snyder damn you're right😂😬
New Year's Day. Gotta mark the calendar.
Can we all just appreciate how cute rachel looks?
Kaylee Witmer You're going to love her scenes with Joey.
Ryan Isbelle really!? is she in a fair amount of scenes? I think she's my favorite newer starkid right now. She's definitly top three with Joe and lauren. I'm sorry I'm fangirling something fierce right now.
Kaylee Witmer Ya. She's in a good deal. Love her character in this. She's a sweetheart too. Met her in 2014 and this year. :)
Ryan Isbelle that oddly makes me super happy to know she's super nice. I really need to meet these freaking people. XD
& 0:34 ITS TRUNKELL, she is the spirit of the river! (I know this because I saw her standing by a river once)
OMFG!! SHERLOCK AND FIREBRINGER ON NEW YEAR'S DAY I AM SO COMPLETE YASSSSSSSS
Wow. I'm so glad I backed this.
I AM SO STOKED (get it? stoked? like..like you stoke a fire?)
can I just say ... THANK YOU :')
never stop creating you guys
starkid you are way over due for a show with a female lead, about damn time
I would say the theme is pretty cool....but Starkid could make a musical about anything and still make it amazing. They could do a paranormal/horror comedy musical, and still make it completely memorable!
...well this comment aged pretty well! 😂
heheh...TGWDLM is a paranormal horror comedy. you, my friend, are psychic
SO COOL OMG! =) I love that the main focus is on female characters this time, and i love that lauren and meredith play them because they are so awesome =)
This looks cheesy but I'm willing to give it a new chance because Lauren Lopez is in the lead
Please name to me one Starkid musical that isn't cheesy. It's part of what makes them so great! :D They're made with so much love and fun
MovieMan47 most musicals are cheesy
Look it's true that musicals are cheesy and that Starkid is but there's a line. As a rule Starkid musicals are cheesy in a parody way. This just looks like straight cheesy.

I AM SO EXCITED!!!! It looks so good, I can't wait!
I can't believe I actually got to see this live, I can't wait to watch it over and over again, like Trail to Oregon and Twisted
Kinda making me want to watch it again.
OH MY GOSH IT'S HERE.
CLARRRRRKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Miss you Dylan but I am glad so many original members could be in it!!
every time there's a break between musicals I think that I'm over Starkid, then they release something new and I fall in love all over again
It's a musical about women? With black women now? AWESOME!! And it looks so nice; 2017 is gonna have a good start
Huh. Maybe 2017 is looking up a little
Yes!! I can't wait to watch this! I know you guys put in a lot of time and work into this and it looks awesome!

Guys, remember that the word "rapscallion" has to be in this! I'm so looking forward to it!
Why?
Hope Snyder good question, but it's a really cool and rarely used word, so yay!
During their livestream to raise money for this show, somebody said she would donate $100 if they used the word "rapscallion" in the musical. I love her mind. :)
Oh, thank you.
They don't say it in the show but, it's a great show haha
Trust me guys I was lucky enough to see it live and it was great
Can't wait for New Years now!!!!!!!!
