      As a fellow Utahan, I just have to say that I would have guessed she and those kids were from here. There's a weird number of super blonde, cute kids from large families around here. I married a non-mormon guy here and we had one of those super blonde kids, even though nobody in either family looks like that. It's something in the water.

      I have to say, I started watching this, expecting an above-average H.S. production and really, they performed this with top-notch, professional talent. When one considers that the Chicago version this was modeled after was the FILM, which gets plenty of practicing, effects, takes and edits, this truly IS an excellent, incredible performance!
      Ms. Barrowes went the extra mile to BE the puppet in this piece. I don't know how she kept her dinner down! :)
      And Mr. Andrus' voice was an outstanding baritone throughout that coupled with the right amount of exuded confidence required for the part.
      The ONLY negative in all of this was an auditorium/sound system that didn't deserve that level of talent.

  • @ProcInc
    @ProcInc 3 ปีที่แล้ว +242

    Unironically this is definitely one of the best performances of 'Gun' on TH-cam.
    The choreography is mostly taken from the 2002 movie as opposed to the usual stage choreography but it reintroduces some of the best stage elements (particularly the long notes at the end which wouldn't have fit in the movie since why would that be impressive when it isn't live?), we also get to see Roxy's full Charleston performed flawlessly at the end (which the movie literally shows for 0.4 seconds)
    The rag doll ventriloquist dummy from the movie is so much more comedic and captivating than the stage version of frozen comedic expressions (and makes more sense) and both Roxy's physicality, make-up (props to them) and acting all enhance it
    And yes, Flynn holds a note here better than some other professional performances I've seen on YT.
    I'm only sorry they couldn't also do the stage version's dance together at the end as well (the shuffle at the last refrain at the end before the long note)

      Yeah I knoww...but the thing is she did it very well, not everyone can look and act like a puppet convincingly in that scene if that makes sense. I'm not a native English speaker I'm sorry.
