⭐️🏆 WHO WANTS ROUND 2??? 🏆⭐️ Also- Hadestown, Phantom of the Opera, Sweeney Todd, Into the Woods, Dear Evan Hansen, Beetlejuice, and every other amazing musical *was not purposefully excluded* like I mentioned, I didn’t make this list 💖 plus, there was only room for 32 slots, so not *every* musical could be included in this round
meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
as long as OOTI is on the next bracket i’ll be good
um... YES!
You should add in The little mermaid, wicked and The prom
Honestly, I need another one.
This is the most sporty thing some of us theatre kids will ever do....
Ryland W. Truuuuueeeeeeeeeeeee
Ryland W. trueeeee
Anna Matthews yup big musical theatre kid right here!! 🎭
True
I do lacrosse...I don’t want to but my mom says i need to be “well rounded”
Lets be real, her parents knew what was going on, and they wanted to torture her and us.
Hahaha
😁😅🤣😂 Truth!!! 😈
Especially with heathers and mean girls!
Beagles that was so easy for me lmao!! funny how we all have opposite opinions
Jackson Sharpe true. I love all these and I would lose my mind.
"I can't make Shrek look pretty to save my life."
Yeah I think that is actually the plot
is that Heather Duke I see-
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE COMMENT-
this is the second time I'm watching this video and I can't stop laughing at this comment
Katherine: Everyone’s two favourite things! Broadway!
Me: and CULTS!
Haha
I mean, same thing
Claudia Bishop yeah
you fool, Theatre and Cults are the same thing
When Kat said “Is this a joke, mom?” I felt that.
Wicked isn’t on there but damn she was my first and true love
honestly same
It was my first as well, but I feel like a lot of people start with Wicked
Imagine pitting Wicked and Hamilton though. I think that I would legitimately pass out from stress.
I absolutely agree
i started with annie 🤦🏻♀️😂
ehm eHM-
Ok, but I *cannot* be the ONLY one who *NEEDS* “Pride And Prejudice: The Musical”-
K.A.P. ! Oh my gosh yes PLEASE
It exists! I saw a production of it a few years ago!
Katherine Steele wait what
I want a Titanic Musical
OMG YES PLEASE
After Kat mentioned sports, suddenly everyone became hamilton's dad and left.
(out of joke, this video looks interenting, neat :-) )
Oh-
Oop
Sartcasm everyone became Beetlejuices dad and left
I wheezed
God no Everyone became Christine's Dad and died
I'm sorry but
*Weste Side Stoy*
I've been chuckling over that for like 5 minutes now lmao
My top 3 fav musicals
3. Anything
2.Guess
1. Weste Side Stoy
nobody:
not a soul:
beetlejuice:
Kat:
Me: *sees hamilton and six going against each other*
Me: rUdE
wow the likes jesus
Jane Seymour, the only one he truly looooved....
R U D E
In the Heights and Hamilton are gonna be movies (btw great name) “Beetlejuice:” THANK YOU FOR THAT IDC HOW BIG PEOPLE SAY BEEJ IS IT IS TOO UNDERRATED 🥺
I don't think that was very fair because she has never even seen SIX
R U D E
Same I was pissed
Bracket: Hamilton vs. Six
Me: HOW DARE YOU!!!
I can't choose between you and me but I mean...I LOST MY HEAD!!!
All I do now is sit in my room and listen/perform Broadway musicals for myself!
I do that even when we're not on quarantine
The Ad that interrupted this video started with: “this must be hard for you” and i kid u not, I snorted
Julia Faith i snorted at this comment
Time for me to binge a ton of "slime tutorial's"
😂😂
Yes same!😂
Honestly, same
Whoever doesn't know what you're talking about will be confused
This is real cute and all but I have to disagree with this bracket
The best musical is obviously the phineas & ferb live musical!
Edit: omg Kat commented!!! I love you so much ❤️❤️❤️
😂
Wait that’s a real musical?
@@potatogg440 sorta, it was a live show that Disney did and it's really creepy
@@krystallights1325 ok thats really scary to think about
Jeez, fanboy much.
*when she puts Hamilton v six and they ur fav musicals*
Sophie cant Animate I CRIED A LITTLE
Sameee I was like dang if she saw six she would know how powerful some of those lyrics are and representation
@@cravingdrama3266 luckily if you watch her vlog channel as well, you'd know that next week's video is an Anne Boleyn character tutorial!! (I was honestly expecting her to do Jane Seymour, because blondes, but I honestly would've preferred an Anne B look anyway so yeah looking forward to some Six content next week!)
Same! I chose Six mainly becuase historically, I've always been more interested in the Tudors as opposed to the American revolution. (Might be because in school we get US History forced upon us...who knows!)
i think i enjoy six more, but i think hamilton is better.
Me: Starts video
Kat: HEY FRIENDS!
Me: OH she is exited today *turns volume down*
The fact that Spring Awakening didn’t get farther wounds me.
*I'm gonna be wounded* oh *gonna be your wound*
Same it’s my fav
That was me with the Lion King tbh
Friend: You only listen to showtunes
me: I listen to rap too
friend: ooh what’s your favorite rap song
me: ummm...... Guns and Ships
friend: *facepalms*
😂😂
“And sports!”
.... right
Burnt Exploding Popcorn Studios dude I play sportz and ima alto
last time I was this early Broadway wasn't dark
Love the profile pic
revenge party
Starkid pfp and Mean Girls username!?
A r e y o u m e ?
@@pan-opticon :o
@@sidkneex hehe
Mean Girls and Black Friday! Ahhhh! I love you!
When she said In The Heights wins, I literally started screaming. That show is soo important to me also because of the culture. It's so difficult to find GOOD Hispanic representation and this show needs way more popularity.
Jaz Pandas Yes the Hispanic representation in this bracket was strong and I loved every second of it.
And also the songs and everything are so good wtf
Well the world and Lin-Manuel answered your prayers😅
My personal favorites are..
1. SIX
2. Heathers
3. Wicked
4. Dear Evan Hansen
5. Beetlejuice
(Honorable nominations to Frozen, Mean Girls, and Hairspray I adore them)
Call me basic but I love all of them.
Also HOLY HANSEN PLEASE SEE SIX
Love the list
She didn't even put dear evan hansen,beetlejuice and Wicked on 😢
okay but same! like all of them!! we are the same person 😂
i think you are the clone of me lol
YESSIR
Unrelated, but wHY DID I _JUST_ FIND OUT ABOUT “FIDDLER ON THE ROOF”!?
LIKE OMG THAT MUSIC IS *G R E A T* -
-Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk-
i never gave much thought to fiddler until i was cast as Chava a few years back. That show had the most impact on me than i believe any musical ever has. The score, the characters, the message. i swear i could watch/ perform a production of fiddler 100 times and find something new every time.
also i'm sorry about nerding out over your comment i just can't control myself around fiddler on the roof. welcome to anatevka
Fiddler ok the Roof was the first show I saw in general, and the first show I saw on Broadway (difficult productions but the same show if that makes sense) and obviously as a 6 & 8 year old it didn’t really make much sense, but I still loved it because I love musicals so much and now whenever I see a production of fiddler I tear up and remember what gig me to where I am :) that was a rant but I felt like a random member of the theatre cult should hear it 😂
K.A.P. ! I was in it a couple of years ago as tzietel, i loveee that show
Yessss
K.A.P. ! I did it and I was YENTE it’s so beautiful and it’s great
YOU PUT MEAN GIRLS VS HEATHERS WHY
I didn't! My parents did :')
I literally wouldn’t be able to do it 😂. I love them both!
They are both so good :)
This is my opinion so don’t @ me but I honestly didn’t like the Mean Girls I liked the movie but the musical was just..
All I could think of when you said is when Veronica:WHYYYY
Why do they hate me!
"They ran out of episodes of Shark Tank to watch so they're very bored in quarantine." honestly, the most relatable thing I've heard all-day
Nah man. The best musical is Spider-Man: Turn off the Dark.
This is a true statement
Very true, it was the first Broadway musical i ever saw and I was 3 at the time, I saw it the night after it opened on Broadway and I still remember it lol
Last time I was this early Sophia was still Lydia
Oof too early
Too early dude, too early
Well now I’m crying
BAHAHAHA
Little too early
Every one that sees this needs to watch starkid musicals
I watched a Twisted "slime tutorial" once...
Grace Wilbourn StarKid doesn’t have boots it’s all put up by the company
I agree wit this message
WHAT DO YOU WANT DRACO
I have committed so many hours of life watching all the starkid shows and hours on commentary on those shows. It’s nice to find another member of this wonderful and insane fandom
Me: **is a younger theatre kid who loves Falsettos**
Me: **knows it probably won’t be there and is sad**
same omg and she saw toursettos open night in LA!
It hurt me when Bare was surpassed. I love West Side Story, but after listening to Bare (from Katherine’s recommendation) I died
So did Jason...
Me: **thinking its gonna be west side story**
me 20 seconds later: WHAT!!!
The scariest thing to ever hit the theatre world
*_heathers never made it to broadway_*
Kat should react to StarKid as a whole or to a StarKid show (preferably tgwdlm, Black Friday, or Twisted)
YES
Yes!!
I feel like Twisted or TGWDLM would be better to react to since although I LOVE Black Friday, it requires having watched TGWDLM to fully appreciate/understand
Jillian Alberry im pretty sure she watched some starkid musicals, im not sure if she watched the recent musicals tho
Now I need a parody musical called Bridges of MC Hammer
Was doing yoga but saw this.........guess I’ll get mindful while debating musicals 😂💅🏼
lol same, i was working out when i got the notification
I'm so ready for the DRAMA
Me: takes one look at the second side
I'm glad I don't have her job
Can we just have another one but like Kats Instagram gets to choose the musicals that move on
the comments are 69 and I’ve never been more proud of the community. this is the true meaning of the theater cult
just wait till we hit 525.6K...(rent joke)
@@grace5033 lol
I CAME AS SOON AS I HEARD
ANGELICA WORK WORK ELIZA AND PEGGY sorry
Angelica
All the way from London
DAMN
@@shhdhdhd-t1tI'M NOT HERE FOR YOUUUUUU
I know my sister like I know my own mind!
Sandrina Laura I love my sister more than anything in this life I would chose her happiness over mine every time put what we have aside I’m standing at her side you will never be satisfied god I hope your satisfiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeddddddddd
Me: OF COURSE I'LL PLAY ALONG
ROUND 1

Oklahoma
Music Man
West Side Story (again O U C H)
Hairspray
Les Mis
Heathers
Beauty and the Beast
Ragtime

ROUND 2
Shrek
The Last Five Years
Hamilton
West Side Story
Les Mis (Hairspray nooooo)
Heathers (exhales loudly)
Spring Awakening
In the Heights
CHRIST THIS IS H A R D
ROUND 3
The Last Five Years
Hamilton (okay this pained me but I have to defend my choice: Hamilton has more of an impact to me than West Side Story. I was blown away when I saw West Side Story but I was blown away when I /listened/ to Hamilton. So there)
Les Mis (I love Heathers and Heathers has THAT impact but Les Mis changed my life no kidding)
In the Heights
OKAY I FEEL LIKE I GET HOW KAT FEELS
SEMI FINALS
Holy crap. How do I do this.
I watch TL5Y from time to time bc I feel like it's very significant to me personally. And I mean the music and the story
Not to say that Hamilton isn't significant to me personally. Hamilton connected me to a bunch of people and helped me make solid friendships.
Ugh. Fine.
Hamilton
Les Miserables I feel like I am forever grateful for discovering it when I did because it was a time when I had been outside musical theatre for a WHILE and it brought me back.
So yeah. Les Mis.
FINALS
(See how cleverly I dodged pitting 2 of Lin's shows)
I mean. No contest. Both shows changed my life but I'll have to give it to Les Mis. Brilliant score. Brilliant story. A brilliant show overall.
I, as an Uncle Fester in my high school musical of the Addams Family, who LOVES singing the Moon and Me, am VERY offended
The Phantom of the Opera wasn’t on this list but I’m literally obsessed with it and it is definitely my favorite musical ever
I would absolutely agree with you. The Phantom of the Opera is my favorite musical as well. I know I’m 2 years late lol.
Last time i was this early, clara hadn’t been hit by a pony.....
Erin Bowers AHAHA
You wrong for this 😭😭
Choosing between two Latin musicals, I can relate.
My final 4 were: Hair, Next to Normal, The Last 5 Years, and Hamilton... 3 of these are in my top 5 Favorite musicals! How is this possible to choose?! But... as awesome as they all are, my heart has to choose.... Next to Normal. That show is just everything to me....
My winner is In the Heights 😊. I'm just excited for the movie, okay 😭?
the amount of thought you put into your decisions is deeply relatable
Hear that?
That’s the sound of Kat losing views as people’s favorite shows are eliminated
Take a shot of water instead and stay very hydrated 😂
This is a theater cult. OBVIOUSLY we don’t know what a March madness bracket is. Or march madness for that matter.....
Erin Bowers I had no idea what March Madness was. I thought just March was always a crazy month with something bad going on in it but then my PE teacher talked about it and she said it was a sporty thing or something
@@greenfinch_1266 I'm not a basketball fan but I already knew about it because of a video I watched about a year or 2 ago where a guy did a bracket but for Disney movies (SPOILER: The Incredibles ended up winning, but it was a tough choice since it was up against Hercules in the final round)
So true
My family is very serious about it and makes brackets every year. I dont cause I only care about figure skating when it comes to sports.
hi kat, I just wanted to say I love your videos and there are helping me get through quarantine . thanks!
Hadestown (as you can see by my icon)and dear even Hanson are my favorite musicals and there not even on here
Those would be my winners
Hamilton or Be More chill would be my winner of what is on your Bracket
Can I just tell you how much I love this? First of all, I love musical theater and performed for many years. Secondly, I love basketball and played the sport for many years. So, you see, you just produced the perfect video for me without even knowing it! You are incredible, Kat, and please do this again!
Does everyone know what the most UNDERRATED musical is?? 9 to 5. It’s amazing. It sucks that it’s not up there!!
Whenever my family does anything sports related you can bet I will say
“I’m here for the sports ball game!”
Thanks you so much for this. It seems like a really fun way to entertain yourself during quarantine. I’m totally gonna do this now!
HAPPY WORLD THEATRE DAYYYYY!!!!! I love you. Thank you for bringing all the theatre nerds together. Sending love to you
My favourite Broadway Musical is Six...YES IT COUNTS, JUST BECAUSE IT ONLY HAD A COUPLE OF DAYS ON BROADWAY BUT THAT WAS BECAUSE OF CORONAVIRUS-
THE MOON AND ME IS A GORGEOUS SONG😭😭😭 I actually did Addams Family with my high school. Ironically enough we had the choice between Addams Family and Shrek, we collectively chose Addams family. In my high schools production, we sadly had to cut moon and me due to a lack of time to finish the dance for that scene (umbrellas suck) Anyhow, that’s my rant. Personally if it were me I would choose Addams Family because I just prefer it over Shrek the Musical. Have a nice day for whoever read this. Wash your hands
So much fun! Thank you for this!
That was great! Awesome choices! I LOVE IN THE HEIGHTS SOOOO MUCH!! I do kinda wish some of those other great shows were in it too... so please do a round 2! :)
The fact that the final 2 screams LATINO REPRESENTATION
Omg I am early the last time I was this early lydias mom was still alive your my favorite person katherine
This is such a great video! Just what I needed right now💕
Thank you so much for introducing me to bare. I’ve listened to it a few times and it is now my favourite musical
Love you Kat!! Is there anyway you think us fans can do anything for you or anyone else during this dark town? (Also recommendation for your parents...GLEE!! If they haven’t seen it anyway lol) 💜💜
Your parents did not put Waitress and In the Heights against eachother.
*YOUR PARENTS DID NOT PUT WAITRESS AND IN THE HEIGHTS AGAINST EACHOTHER!!!!!* 😭
RIGHT ?????? 🙃🙃🙃🙃
@@Kath_Steele My friends think that something like this is dumb and meanwhile I'm crying over the fact that I've always loved Waitress but Lin has created the beauty that is In the Heights 😂
Ive been marathoning your videos. I love your channel! To be on broadway is a huge dream of mine and you always inspire me to keep going!!
Proud of you! Definitely thought it would be between both of Lin master pieces! I agree with your thoughts on Les Mis but it’s also such a classic amazing show... absolutely love heathers and I’ve been listen to it at least once a a week lately so I might had picked it over les mis... flawless! I think you could play it again with a couple others like little woman, frozen, Anastasia, beetlejuice, phantom, cabaret, into the woods, once upon an island, Sherk... maybe also a school edition with high school musical the musical and Tarzan
I think beetlejuice with phantom a close second. Wait. YOU DIDNT PUT BEETLEJUICE OR PHANTOM ON THERE?
I didn't make the list, my parents did!
Katherine Steele you shoulda told them to make SURE at least beetlejuice got on there. I love that musical so much but I can’t see it cause I live in Illinois and it’s in NYC. 😭
When you don't choose waitress on the day it's announced it's closed on West end
OMG in the heights! thank you so much for recognizing this AMAZING show i love you kat❤️
Hey Katherine!!! I love you and your positive energy so much, even during this hard time right now; you still manage to put a smile on your face and our faces too. I also really like Heathers, In The Heights, and I saw The Producers once last year and it was a really, really good show. I hope you're safe I wish you well, I'm sending you love and light💖✨
No "Ya Like Jazz: The Bee Musical" smh
10:38 Kat showing off her acting prowess by making it seem like Heathers vs Les Mis was actually a difficult choice for the Heathers fanatics out there.
I really enjoy the show but it is nowhere near a classic like Les Mis.
Thank you for making awesome videos for us to watch in self quarantine! ❤️
WAIT I love how it ended up being ItH vs. WSS cuz they’re both latinx-centric musicals that have movie adaptations coming out this year omg
All I have to say is 1. Spring Awakening and 2. Six
I have tears in my eyes. I've also never seen SA live, so lucky Kat
Everyone- reads the list
Weber and sauntime fans- WhErE's PhAnToM aNd SwEeNy?!?
Edit: forgot how to spell their names
** Webber
** Sondheim
And wicked!
And newsies
SAUNTIME DJDJDJDNDNDNDJ
Also JCS is literally on there so Webber was represented (and by a far better show than Phantom)
I was waiting for this so much!!!!
Great vid Kat! I was in WSS(as Maria) so I was supporting it the whole way but then again, no one can compete with In the Hights
If you don’t choose Spring Awakening I’m gonna kms I swear-
OH COME ON
Haven’t seen the video yet but I’m just saying if James and the giant peach is on there I’m instantly declaring that the winner.
Kat I was supposed to see the DEH tour tonight but it got canceled😩 on the bright side, this video made my day and was so funny, thank you!
That looked so fun!!! I wish I could play my own version but no one in my family could pick musicals to compare to each other
I'm gonna be honest I'd skip the brackets and choose Hamilton as the winner!
I'm sorry I've been hyped about Hamilton since December (I know I'm late)!
THE OKLAHOMA REVIVAL IS AWESOME I FRICKING LOVED IT I HAVE A DRINK COUSY SIGNED BY THE GUY WHO PLAYED JUD
Love that you are going through a JCS phase! I am always in a JCS phase! Like I have 4 different versions on my iPod! 🤣❤️
LETS GOOOOOO!!!!! I just got to the end and In The Heights is my favorite musical of all time 🤩 (I’m too excited for this 🥴)
Ahhhhh Hello favorite RUclipsr
HI!!!!
is it weird that um... I was just listing to in the hights like right before this
Okay I literally did this two days ago before I knew you’d done it and in the heights won for me too!!
This was so fun! I want to make a bracket for everything in my life now.
I’m going with In the Heights for the win even though West Side Story is my favorite musical
In the Heights is my top as well!!! Give me some good ol Latina representation!!!!
I just love that the final two are being made into movies supposedly this year!! Can't wait for both & I feel ya on choosing between them THEY ARE BOTH SO GOOD IN THEIR OWN RIGHTS!! :3
welp I just had a really bad audition so good timing for your video to cheer me up!!!
