Did you notice that the ensemble member at the end looked right into your soul lol
3:23
It made me jump
yeah i did lol. how does it feel being in the best show on Broadway
Hahaha I think that’s Ramone Owens
Its the thumbnail lok
the snapping of the ukulele and him being handed another one is the best thing
and then snapping the second one too lmao
betelgeuse hurrying to lay on the coffin is such a mood
My desperate need for the recording only grows with each song we get to hear
This comment has retired. It got what it wanted.
Qwerty Content no don’t watch the bootleg, it steals money from the show 🤷🏻♂️
@@lukenaoumovitch4477 Bootlegs steal money from the show? I had no idea. I guess I'd better give the show some money by never being able to afford to see it...
@@lukenaoumovitch4477 By in all seriousness, by 'recording', I meant the cast recording they announced they were making.
Qwerty Content I’m sorry I just assumed :). But I think you can see where I’m coming from tho
@@logan.weisberg bootlegs don't steal any money from the show, they just make the people who see it satisfied with just seeing the bootleg and then they don't spend the money to see the actual live performance
I love how he goes from playing the ukulele...to metal like music XD
Addams family has exited the chat...
They even said full disclosure
And the Dramamine line
Ava Gates u bet
It's also a morbid but hilarious musical and is one of my favorites.
okay but this guy is OWNING it
Alex u mean..
kai kat dad actually
@@kaityrose9619 Rob? (David now)
Ah yes, bow down before our king Alexander Micheal Brightman!😂
NOT owning it.
Okay the sharpness of the ensemble killed me it is so satisfying.
“I’m king forget mufasa” 😂 I’m weak
Welp he might as well be scar xD
BEETLEJUICE! DX
I love how Dana Steingold goes from a mourner, to a Fright of Their Lives choir member, to a Girl Scout. Such a major turn of events.
And she operated the pig too 😂
And then an understudy for Lydia
And sometimes she does the pig for day-o
And then the real Lydia
dont forget pig cart
okay alex is great and all but the fact that ryan berslin was like right next to you? he's the dude kneeling closest to the camera at 0:51 and he's like one of the best ensemblists i know? agh i'm really jealous all the way around
Wasn’t he a newsie?
@@itzblu855 yeah he was.
SAME
CHOKE TO DEATH ON TRISCUITS BEST LINE OF ALL TIME
hey, its just statistics. 😂
This is the third lyric change I’ve heard to this song and I AM LOVING IT!!!! (Because they perform it on different shows) It’s crazy how they come up with the perfect words to change it and I’m just UGGGHHHHH I LOVE IT 😂
Did anyone notice that Alex didn’t even need the lines they wrote on the cards?? I love his energy!
wHoa the ensemble sound so good.
PaNiC! Kermit ikr especially the curly haired blonde woman aaaaa
Melissa Dance omg yes!!
Did they do it twice? Alex’s line delivery is a little different from the broadcast.
Ash K. yes! this was their practice before the broadcast! so not only can you watch the live performance but you can also watch a little extra!
Nice!
I also his motioning was different during some parts.
Ash K. It’s on tv so they have to make it PG
Honestly yeah he seemed pretty nervous but he slowly seemed to chill up maybe because of the Kyiv changes I know I’m super late but I couldn’t help but agree
I’m obsessed with this show
MeMe Smile7 same here
I also, but big problem, I'm from Brazil
This has become my Hamilton!
@@Otisboy121 I AM NOT HAMILTON SIR!
@@isakenobi4596 i'm from Colombia, oof
Alex hurrying to go onto the coffin is me trying ti get ti bed before my moms finds out im not
HAHAHAHAHA same
the amount that flooring moves kinda gives me anxiety, like seriously. Even when he's stood still you can see him kinda correct for it, it's maybe why he doesn't stand on the coffin like usual. I know I notice weird stuff but now I can't unsee it help.
this is the practice but it lowkey sounds better than the broadcasted version on the today show like-
I’m gonna lose my damn mind when the ocs gets released it just sounds so GOOD
TOMORROW TOMMOROW TOMMOROW
But Why !!!!!!!!!!!!!! BEYOND HYPED
@@abbyjennings825 SAME HERE!!!!!! IMA SAY BEETLEJUICE THREE TIMES JUST TO MEET ALEX BRIGHTMAN
But Why THE LITERAL MOOD ATM
@@abbyjennings825 YUH
oh no i love him so much
SpiritofChaos oh no
I’ll marry the demon if it means being able to sing with him
The clean version is so odd
Ikr lol
Ikr it is wrong :0
This looks so much fun!!!!!!!! I’m praying i see show next Wednesday night!!!
Did they just say... FULL DISCLOSURE???
@Soren Marius let your darkest secrets give you away
FULL DISCLOSURE
I’m playing full disclosure with all these cRaZy hAppY peOpLe!
cloudie uwu I love the Adams family and the musical is SO good
STOP *_I'M DEAD_* I WILL BRING YOU DOWN WEDNESDAY!
I’m guessing they had the card for Alex to remember the exclusive lines
Nobody:
Literally nobody:
2:39.. 11 y/o girls: OMG SO DEEP
2:09 holy hell
these writers are godly, like jesus how many versions of "the whole being dead thing" did they plan for
Beej's life hack with the baking soda really worked!
Alex trying to get on the coffin as quick as possible is my spirt animal
Beetlejuice the musical > the Addams Family musical
YES
Play this at my funeral
Loved this show!!!!! Cant wait to see it again!!!!!!
“I’m kidding! Forget Mufasa.”
*spin*
this is a different version then the one they showed on tv subtle small things gave it away for example when bj breaks the ukelele the second time on the tv version it fell onstage and people had to rush on the stage to grab it another one is when he asks the one lady how she's doing the tv version has him moving backward in this one he's going forwards so they filmed one separately?
as I told someone else in the comments, this was their practice before the broadcast so not only can you watch the live performance but you can also watch a little extra
@@loveyourself2920 my apologies i didnt see that comment thank you for uploading this
Ugh ! SO good I have to see this !
I wish I was there
"AnyWay That's Just A Life Hack Back To The Dead Thing"
SOMEONE NEEDS TO GET BRAVE AND RECORD THE WHOLE MUSICAL
SERIOUSLY
*i ‘ m k i n g , f o r g e t m u f a s a*
YES ALEX 😂👏
I wish I could meet Alex Brightman as Beetlejuice,because Beetlejuice is my favorite Tim Burton character
1:25 Is that my guru Otho?
You don't know how much I'd pay for those lyrics cards.
why does alex’s voice sound better in this then on the today show
“ if you die during this performance, the brodcastwill not stop😊”
This looks like rehearsal. In the live broadcast they have a camera on Al for his reaction, and the second ukulele rolls onto the stage and the prop man appears briefly for a second on camera grabbing it.
it is.. during his entrance there is no camera following him, there is only 2 and one of them is the spider cam
Alex running to the coffin is just adorable 😂😊
BEETLE JUICE!!!
BEETLE JUICE!!!
BEETLE JUICE!!!
It's showtime!
I love the transition with guitar veil and nice
ok so i couldn't find the real recording but im glad someone else recorded it BTS and i get to listen to it, i was looking for this one specifically because he switches it up a bit for the different preformances he does
GUYS THE NFP IS BEING DROPPED (I THINK THATS THE RIGHT WORD) SOON WHICH MEANS PEOPLE WILL BE ABLE TO RELEASE FULL VIDEOS OF THE SHOW!!!
Why did that one ensemble member drop out at 2:53? Did his umbrella break or something?
MusicFeedsYourSoul in the actual show one of the ensemble members gets taken off stage because of the giant sand worm in this number so I’m thinking that’s why one of the ensemble members goes off stage in this performance I could be complete wrong though cause the song was changed a bit for this performance
I think it’s because the choreography calls for someone being gone because of the sand worm in the show.
It think they did it twice
Also did u see the lady with the lyrics 😂
I live that we can see Al Toker absolutely enjoying the show in the background - so much in fact, that at some point he seems to make his way to the front side of the stage so that he can watch it properly.
He had to go for a live shot remote on the weather.
I want to see the musical but I live in the uk
I too want to see the musical but I live in Italy
I could be falling in love falling in love, falling in love, with alex brightman.
How do I donate my soul
How many ukuleles do you think they went threw??
Its magnetic so they aren't really broken
his singing reminds me so much of risky rat from kids praise
this was deadass a WEEK after i was in NYC come ON
i never noticed ryan breslin was in beetlejuice omg
They had to use a text board for the changes i-
1:35 I thought the cameraman’s Dramamine just kicked in 😂😂🤣
At the end @3:18 ... closest to camera... didn't know Eddie Murphy was one of the dancers..
Hi love yourself this is funny because I wasn’t on your profile lol, it’s funny that I found your profile again
thats a workout yeesh!
Peep Dana Steingold
3:07 Does anyone know why there's that one ensemble member offstage? I've always wondered.
He isn't there the entire song, so I think the part where he goes offstage is just when they don't need all the dancers for the choreography in that moment
It might be so they have an even amount of dancers, because you see them pair up as he's offstage, and in the actual choreography of the musical someone gets taken off the stage by the sandworm, so they probably just don't have anything for that guy to do until they all line up at the end of the song
Is it dana?
Yeah
Anyone notice Dana was the only ensemble member not wearing gloves of any kind
Im annoyed at ppl who spell it beetlegeuse! It’s BEETLEJUICE
I’m not feeling this. For me it comes across as quite flat. This might just be a similar problem to the Addams Family performance on tv a couple of years ago.
Matilda Andrews well to be fair, the musical is absolutely stunning. This performance was outside without the lights and better sound equipment, plus this was just the rehearsal. Alex is incredibly energetic in the actual broadway show.
doesn't look like beetle-juice. not beatlejuice at all
Mark Squirp it’s a broadway adaptation. Part of the magic is how they’ve reimagined hair, costumes, and makeup to better suit the stage, as well as to give it a fresh new twist.
Gamer Tribe exactly. If it was just like the movie detail for detail no one would see it!
zucchini or even better BETELGEUSE
😈Beetlejuice: “It’s Broadway Showtime!🌩⚡️🌩
He meant that the musical doesn't have the quirky dark spirit of the original Beetlejuice. It's more akward and 'hip' with its typical-Broadway-sounding score. Doesn't remotely remind of Beetlejuice...
I guess if you can’t come up with something original just steal from the past to make money.
I’m still waiting for a Die Hard Musical.

This show wont last long
wowzer tell that to the eight tony noms
@@thelionfish865 An award does not remotely equate longevity
Do they ever?
@@aderiusscott2220 Sure
🤔🤔🤔🤔
Remember the time when you had to actually know how to sing to be on Broadway? Good times. What's next, a West Side Story revival starring Ke$ha, Springsteen, and Mick Jagger? Alex sounds like someone auditioning for American Idol, NOT a Broadway lead. His stage presence is also off in this video...doesn't seem commanding enough, and it looks like he's not confident enough either. Some of his movement definitely looks awkward.
I saw the show a few weeks ago and the whole thing is great. But I personally thought Alex was the strongest part of the show. He absolutely steals every scene he's in and is incredible. Also in terms of the voice, if you've seen the movie it's based on, Michael Keaton's voice sounds the same. I think it takes a special kind of talent to not only bring uniqueness to an established character, but to also honor the character existing fans know and love.
@@BeckyA I actually tried to sing the song in an harmonic way, it sounded good but it lost a bit of the Beetlejuice charm, we are literally talking about a deadguy/demon and he sings really good to be in character
It beetlejuice what did you expect he is akward
You do know what beetle juice sounds like in the original movie right?
Yes i do
