1776 is a good show with memorable musical numbers: "He Plays The Violin", "Momma, Look Sharp", and "Molasses To Rum" to name a few.

Fun Fact! Did you know the Declaration of Independence was actually signed on August 2nd and not July 4th! Not a lot of people know that, but we just learned that in my history class! Hoping to see more content soon.

My husband and I just returned from seeing Daniel. We have seen other productions at Sight and Sound Lancaster but I must say Daniel is my favorite thus far. Spectacular and Spiritually insightful. I love that the gospel is always presented. Blessings to the good folks who put on these productions.

That seems to be the big thing now which is to some degree bashing Method acting, saying it's good but not to the detriment of the person. So not true. Every field, position there are those who want to do better than good. Bring it to another level. And yes, sometimes it cross's over into real life. That's with anything. Method acting doesn't teach that. It does teach to try and create brilliant characters, but is individual in what that means. Never does Method acting say to get drunk to feel how that feels, or drugs, it's to find substitutes. It never said to gain weight if playing someone heavier. Robert DeNiro would do that, but that was him.. His choice. Daniel Day Lewis spent a year as Lincoln , in character before shooting. No one said an actor should do that. Strasberg's method acting I would say is the most complete. Meisner technique is brilliant, but mainly on the level of being truthful, honest,reacting. Strasberg used everything. Sadly, when someone who doesn't know tries to define method they say using personal experiences through sense memory/emotional recall. That's not true. Emotional recall is one exercise that is taught, but Strasberg always said it's when nothing else is working. But he used everything, including script breakdown, character work. He would do improv's, animal exercises (to create character), song and dance (for the internal to meet the external), He kept on growing, it was never just one thing. One technique.

I am a director but also a massage therapist. I teach both theatre and Reiki. I am amazed again and again how energy work and acting overlap!❤

Because I had the opportunity to see this wonderful production, it has made me excited to read my Bible. Thank you Sight and Sounds from the bottom of my heart.

If you're working in film and television, you probably won't meet your costars until shooting day.

Sorry I was referring to the film

😢too long

Do you have an online class?🤗

Thank you for taking the time to make this video♥️ We have seen Daniel 3 times this year…being that my son-in-law is one of the men playing Daniel. I cried when you showed the footage of just walking into the theater. It’s a moment that never gets old. The entire atmosphere is captivating and God is so present in this building. I love how much you loved it!! It’s truly a life changing experience. The worship that happens in this theater is powerful and authentic…everyone around me just sat in their chairs stunned and overwhelmed in the Spirit when the show ended.My son-in-law is truly the most powerful man of God I have ever known. To be gifted by God with an incredible talent as well as an anointing of evangelism makes for the perfect Daniel in my opinion! (Nothing against Jacob)What a blessing to see God move on the audience as He did. My daughter is in the cast as well so as a mom I was over the moon watching! But the presence of God was so tangible and I’m excited to see it go into theaters this Labor Day!! To God be the Glory!! Be blessed!♥️

I wonder how factual this production is? Does it end with Daniel IN HIS 80'S in the Lion's Den for example? Focusing upon him as a young man only would NOT be good enough to me.

As my own daughter embarks on a journey in drama and the arts, I was reminded of Mr. Perry. My deep dive into Google to find information on him led me to your video. Inspiring and honest. I was a graduate of KHS too and Mr. Perry’s passion was a great memory.

I would like to take your class. Is this class available in online

Feeling inspired by this book review

loved it, i love straight plays.

Amen, this is sad that this is what is happening, I only watch old movies these days because of this very issue. I hate being manipulated by the Prince of the world

I knew there was something special about this cast when I saw the show! I could truly feel God’s presence throughout the whole performance, and it was a joy! Now I can see why with these cast meetings. 😄

नमो बुद्धाय।

I saw the TikTok and watched the series as well, which made me start watching the tv show and on the tv show there are girls who show their faith etc. I think there are pros and cons to their system but I worry about the girls who have eating disorders to try to stay thin. I also think the judges could do better at facials during auditions. I think all directors, music directors, etc could be better at that during the audition process. I get that some people may not have any talent, even in their pinky toe but it’s not a reason to be unkind. It’s hard to audition and put yourself out there so I would say that’s my two cents.

This was not entertaining

This movie really was amazing! I cried the entire time!

I loved watching the performance of this on the Tony Awards this year. It seemed very much like "The Greatest Showman" choreography to me! So fun and catchy.

So fascinating that when something is a recreation of a nostalgic thing, that some things will hit it on the nose and other things are too divergent to enjoy fully for our brains and hearts. Id love to see the tech for the car on this one!

So interesting when you say that the 3 actors in this show have brought it so much popularity. It makes sense.. I would not be drawn to research this show if it wasnt for the combination of Lindsay, Jonathan and Daniel.. all of whom I really enjoy watching! Now that I hear a little more about the plot of thr show, I'd love the chance to see it sometime.

I read this in high school, I think. I haven't seen it, but I really enjoyed the performance on the Tony Awards this year. The fight scene was so dramatic.. it seemed like very clean choreography made even more dramatic by the lighting. Looked intense!

Hi Jessica!!!- samantha

Thank you for your kind words! It's our joy to share these powerful stories with you, and we hope to welcome you to our theater again soon!

NO, this show did not come about because Universal saw another cash cow. It's all because Bob Gale (and Bob Zemeckis) own the remake rights to the IP. Universal is DYING to get a new movie made. The Two Bobs refuse. This was the compromise for two reasons: 1) Fans could get their nostalgia fix; and 2) Bob Gale could have a job again. (He's mysteriously been blacklisted from Hollywood.) For someone who runs her own theatre, your opinions are - to be put it bluntly - boneheaded. By your logic, if Olivier's "Hamlet" was your first exposure to the play, you'd never be able to appreciate Branagh's?

Ooh I have to disagree about Roger. He's the reason why I have seen the show in both London and NY. I even choose specific seats on the left hand side of the front row to get a good look at Doc's gyrations. 😄 It is true that he differs quite a bit from Chris Lloyd's original, but I really like his style and his voice is amazing.

I'm going to see this show tonight so this was such fun timing to find your lovely review! It's been over 15 years since I've been to Sight and Sound and I'm so excited to see Daniel.

The show looks fantastic. I don't understand I went on their website it's not even listed as a show during their season. You just put this up 3 weeks ago. Any other links to maybe the show?

Could you do a video on Once in a Lifetime and what it's about?

This is the first OTP show I’ll be attending, and I’m thrilled! It’s going to be great!

I agree. We do need to be vigilant investigators before we watch something. Many years ago, I got fantastic recommendations from friends to go and see the movie: the piano. (It even had Academy nominations). That was a big mistake. I had to walk out of the theater. Thanks for sharing!

Iam the biggest ,biggest biggest ,biggest fan of Narnia. My favorite prince Caspian and the voyage of the dawn treador

No offense this whole review a little weird and a little condescending and comment about stature of Daniel lead actor should have been left out.

Going in June first time seeing Daniel, and first time back at Sight and Sound since before covid 2019. May the Lord bless those who have the chance to watch it and may it lead them to the cross to know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior🙏

Thanks for sharing this review. I’ve heard of the movie… now I need to go see it!

ok.. and where is the content, everyone already knows? What about asking the right questions?

This is and will always be my favorite theatre-related topic! Really enjoyed this video. Apologies in advance for the long comment as I really love talking about this as a theatre fan/audience member! Some Swings also double as Understudies for certain principal roles and I can only imagine the hard work it takes to learn and remember so many tracks/roles. Standbys are sometimes also credited as Walking Covers, and this seems to be more the case for UK-based productions but I could be wrong! I have seen certain onstage actors be credited as Standbys for a lead role too, which I think is interesting. and there are also Alternates, who generally are performers that regularly step in every week or so to perform while a lead gets a show off (there is usually an Alternate Christine in Phantom of the Opera) but the term may be used differently for different shows/productions. For instance, the Alternates in Six (West End / Broadway / US Tour) are primarily standbys as far as I know, though I think the UK Tour cast may have the scheduled shows off, during which an Alternate (or Super Swing) might step in. Some productions also have Universal Swings who cover/swing across different productions of the same show. Six (West End & UK Tour) has a Universal Super Swing, who covers all six roles in both the West End & UK Tour (both productions have their resident Super Swing too), and the Broadway & US Tour productions of Six have a Universal Alternate, who covers four of the six queens in both the Broadway and US Tour productions. There are also Vacation Swings/Standbys in certain shows who I believe are brought on to cover/swing for a certain period of time. In many of the shows I have been lucky to see in the past year, there have been swings/understudies/standbys/alternates who were on and I really appreciate what they do! (I know I mentioned Six a lot. The UK production's IG account posts professional photos of the Alternates & Super Swings as well as the onstage principals when there is a full cast change, and I think that's amazing. Also, the Six Australia account is revealing the full company for their upcoming tour very soon, and in the lead up they've included the Swings in the cast reveal teaser posts, which is really great to me!) Just to add on too, NCL Cruise productions (for shows like Six and Beetlejuice) have/had Rehearsal Swings who swing certain roles during the rehearsal process but do not join the onboard cast later when they go on the cruise. The Six Australian Tour in 2022 also had an "Alternate Swing", who was also in the company in a non-performer role and served as an additional swing to provide more coverage.

Daniel was the first production I ever saw at Sight and Sound many years ago. I’m glad it’s back this year. I’ll be going in July

Wow it looks great, wish I was able to see it from Australia! Thanks for sharing

Having seen many Sight and Sound productions, please take my advice and make plans to see DAVID when it opens in Branson next year. I consider it the most perfectly crafted show they've ever done and honestly, I can't imagine them ever topping it. Absolutely epic, intense and beautiful on all levels. You'll never regret it!

This is a great clip, but i had to laugh when you said "the guy who played lincoln," - how can you be conducting an acting interview and not know his name is Daniel Day Lewis!!! Thats like talking about basketball and saying "that guy that played on the chicago bulls in the 90s." 😂

Great job guys!

Awesome!!!!

Have fun! I went to David. I was in a happy daze after i watched it.

So loved this movie!!!

Im studying Stella now… I heard that Stella HATED Method, and if you mentioned it in her Class she would probably throw you out… I also heard after Marlon Brando was with her he said later that he was a Method Actor, and when she heard that, she BASHED him in her Book!!! She was a TOUGH COOKIE!!!!! lol
