ahaha i'm the girl in the blue sweater who got brought up for March of the Falsettos! guys, this production was so so so good. i sobbed throughout the entire second act. the NAMES quilt being brought out at the end was such a good choice. congrats to everyone in the cast :)
My 2020 Falsettos hyperfixation, welcome back. Edit: Im sitting at my desk still sobbing after watching their performance. One hell of an actor everyone was. The reaction from the audience was outstanding, too. You could hear those tears. Damn, they did this musical justice. And that's not even mentioning the names they brought together in the end of those we know who passed away because of lack of action taken to treat and prevent the spread of HIV-AIDS. Kudos to all.
Clicked on this to see 4 Jews and ended up watching the whole thing. This cast gets it in a way I haven’t seen before (except maybe the OG production). Gotta say, I love this Marvin way more than Borle, actually terrifying in the angry moments and an amazing voice. The direction was also beautifully thought out. Sorry proshot, this is now my go-to production, congratulations everyone!
not seeing nearly enough appreciation for whoever played charlotte. naturally, shes a solid character in the show so it was hard to find anything to dislike about her but i never really felt as connected with her character before until now. this is absolutely my favorite portrayal of charlotte EVER. the actor is so pretty, funny, a vocal powerhouse, and has the funnest stage presence. im in awe everytime theyre on stage. they take charlottes character to all these new heights and i love that for them. i genuinely could yap about this versions charlotte for ages. ugh i just love them so much and this whole production was such a surprise to stumble upon!! 🫶
Oh, seriously! I loved her take on the character. She felt very forceful, but without coming off as uptight. There was a sort of joy about her, which was a unique and refreshing character choice. It's also the first time I've seen a Charlotte and thought, yeah, that's an actual queer woman. The chemistry she shared with Cordelia was _very_ believable, and such fun to watch. When she sings, "do you know how great my life is?" it finally, actually feels like she truly loves her life. I never got that vibe from other productions.
Omg the baseball tees with the numbers, mendels says 42 which unless it has another meaning there usually symbolizes the answer the life the universe and everything (it was just towel day a few days ago!!), Whizzers says 69 which is everyone’s favourite silly number that symbolizes his constant sexual activity leading to his demise, and Marvin’s having 01 symbolizing his egotistical natures, and Jason’s being 13 because he is our favourite unlucky child. I mean the numbers definitely could have more reference to the original productions (march of the falsettos/falsettoland) or even in trousers but I’m also the type of person who looks for every detail and thinks out anything that could possibly be a reference to anything else.
42 could also be referring to Jackie Robinson, the Dodgers’ batter. I think it’s likely since we know Mendel is a Dodgers fan because he references Sandy Koufax, another dodger.

i know falsettos like the back of my hand, and WOW this blew me away. i was laughing and crying so much, even knowing what was coming, and so many parts felt fresh (e.g. the floor as the chessboard)! everything was incredible. the entire cast ate, but imo mendel DEVOURED.
Got confused for a moment by the last scene until I realized the connection between the names being laid down. Beautiful and devastating. God, this production is good.
That’s because most of the choreo, blocking, and direction are shamelessly stolen from the 2016 Broadway production. These poor actors were probably told to just copy instead of making their own choices.
@@prozack1312 calm down, jesus. Every production takes inspiration from other places, especially other iterations of the same show. It’s not like everything has to be entirely different, which a large chunk of it very much is. Go direct your own if you want it to be brand new.
@@galactic7458 inspiration is one thing, an homage would even be acceptable, but to just copy is not about creating art. The only reason to revive a piece of theater is because you have something new to say with it, otherwise just leave it alone. This performance is the opposite of art, it’s schlock, and the praise it’s receiving is stolen valor from the people who actually took the time to create.
@@prozack1312 choreo and blocking aren't the only things that go into a show, the actors have their own interpretations of the lines and singing, and obviously not everything is the same
As someone whose favourite show is Falsettos and has watched about a million subpar community theatre productions of it, this is by far the best small-scale production of the show I've seen. First of all - such a great show to do with thrust staging, and the use of set and space was incredible. Some of the moments in The Chess Game had me extremely impressed. On the topic of visuals, the costuming in March of the Falsettos (as well as bringing audience members onto the stage) was genius. The baseball tees with symbolic numbers on the back are so beautiful. Also, shoutout to the cast!! They all did incredible and gave extremely fresh takes on the roles. I especially loved your Mendel who I can confidently say is on par with Mendel performers in professional productions of the show. Overall, phenomenal production that I even preferred to a couple professional productions of the show (talking to you, 2019 off-west end production), great job!!!
whatever production it is i still bawl my eyes out at what would i do 😭the obvious pauses of marvin when he sings his parts at the start really shows how scared he is and how he's really trying to process everything in his head and make sure he says everything he wants to to whizzer before he goes. THE BREATHY "We're just gonna skip that stage" KILLED ME. THE WAY I SOBBED IM TELLING YOU. anyways WONDERFUL PRODUCTION!!
This was incredible! Loved everyone's energy, especially how much raw emotion Whizzer expressed with just his voice in You Gotta Die Sometime. Amazing actors, made me cry
im a huge falsettos fan who had the pleasure of seeing this production live! it was so incredible, such a great cast/crew and just executed excellently. so excited to see what else this production does in the future!
No way we got another one- Edit- MENDEL IS EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE OH MY GOD MENDEL IS INCREDIBLE EDIT EDIT- CHARLOTTE IS EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE OH MY GOD CHARLOTTE IS INCREDIBLE EDIT EDIT EDIT- HOW IS EVERYONE IN THIS SO GOOD LIKE SERIOUSLY No but truly, this was one of the greatest non-brodway versions of Falsettos I think I've ever seen preformed. The choreography, actors, and set design was immaculate. Incredible job to everyone in this, this is definitely a keeper.
Whatttt this is so fun and well filmed! Amazing cast and quality! The actors for Marvin and Dr Charlotte were AMAZING but honestly everyone slapped!!!! Staging also so good- I mean I cant get over this production
omg yay thank u for uploading this!!! got to see it and was brought up at another performance :) wept basically through the whole thing so i’m so glad i can watch it again and share it with others!! long live small toronto theatre
My reactions cuz i LOVEEEE FALSETTOSSS: a long comments thread :3 4JNAR WAS SO GOOODDDD, the vocals are so strong I’m already hooked and excited Little Jason is so cute😭 Wow I love Marvins voice
Just watched act I brilliant cast wonderful everyone is great this is an amazing production I especially love the comedic timing between mendal and Jason
Hi Ian! It’s Cam from the April 20th show, amazing work!! Would you happen to have footage of that night’s performance? I saw a camera there and if anything was captured I’d love to see it because I was in that night’s March of the Falsettos! Again, an incredible performance and I am so glad I got to see it live. Thanks!
i've seen countless variations of this show and while I always get teary eyed at the ending I can usually hold it together at this point, but man, the NAMES quilts being brought out fucking ruined me.
I'm annoyed I didn’t know about this while they were still performing cuz I would've loved to see this in person I hope they perform Falsettos again at some point
babe wake up new falsettos proshot just dropped
I was wondering how The Chess Game was gonna work with no chess board until I realized THE FLOOR IS A FREAKING CHESS BOARD
I. AM. IN. AWE.
Which makes it crystal clear that, honey, it was never about chess :'D
ahaha i'm the girl in the blue sweater who got brought up for March of the Falsettos! guys, this production was so so so good. i sobbed throughout the entire second act. the NAMES quilt being brought out at the end was such a good choice. congrats to everyone in the cast :)
Thank you
So we all agree that this mendel is absolutely amazing
YESSS
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH OH MY GAWSHHH
jason blindly mirroring marvin in father to son?? my heart
Omg thank you

Mendel separating Marvin and Trina on “count what’s good, then divide” was GOLDEN.

Valid
Joshua Killimnik definitely became my favorite Mendel. Best actor in the entire show by far, good job!!!
Agreed!

Yes!!!! That was my exact interpretation of their numbers as well! Clever costume design...
I took Mendel’s as 420 missing the zero. Your interpretation is much better..
@@galactic7458 I’m a huge hitchhikers fan and nerd in general so I see the smallest references lol
42 could also be referring to Jackie Robinson, the Dodgers’ batter. I think it’s likely since we know Mendel is a Dodgers fan because he references Sandy Koufax, another dodger.
Even AR’s Whizzer wasn’t whizzering as hard as this one (all the cast is so good looking I might kill myself)
