OHMYGOD HEY!
This weekend was a VERY stagey one because I took part in a 24-Hour Musical, a community theatre challenge where a group of amateur performers learn and perform a show just 24 hours after learning what it is.
This year we performed Andrew Lloyd Webber's infamous musical Cats with full costuming, choreography and more than a little concern.
Check out the full video to find out if we managed to perform it without too much going wrong!

As a tech, I was trying to sleep in a dressing room above the stage when you all started the tap routine around 4am. I thought it was heavy rain! Not much sleep tbh. 😂
Sleeping??? SLEEPING?!?! This is not how you do a 24 hour musical
I love how it's the "young performers edition" I guess it makes sense for the time frame that they had.
If this video doesn't result in a huge viewer increase to the 'Mickey Jo explains Cats' video, it will be a travesty.
The Cats video is hysterical and I rewatch it all the time, it deserves loads more views.
thanks for telling us about this video. I have just spent 15 minutes giggling away
Thank you for reminding me of that masterpiece
Mickey -Jo -theatre he oozes stage & musical theatre 🎭 he knows it inside& out We love 💕 him Soo much xx
@@user-yc4fz7vv6u Delighted to have done this public service for you 💖
@@booksvsmovies You are most welcome 💖
I would absolutely love to do a 24hr musical, as a working adult it's so hard to fit in long rehearsal processes. Someone near me make this happen!
Also, you make a fabulous cat 🐈
Same! I would love to participate in something like this!
Come and join us in camberley!
@@the24hourmusical Alas, I'm in the US, but if I ever find a way to be there, I'm in! (And it is a holiday weekend...)
I agree completely, as stressful as this would be I feel it would be so fun
A 24 hour musical is such a fun idea. As an adult with not much free time this would be great. I've done a play in a week and a musical in 2 weeks before.
I can't think of Cats the same way since a co-worker described it as X Factor but the winner dies lol 🤣
Hahahahaaa! That’s hilarious!
I have three stage credits:
1) A dubbed and abridged production of CATS on Ice (Jemima)
2) Reading my childhood diaries about CATS on Ice on stage in Portland, OR
3) Reading my childhood diaries about CATS on Ice on stage in Denver, CO
I need another CATS credit. I need to get in on something like this XD Congrats!
This sounds fun and stressful af. I'd love to try.
I was in it for the first time this year! It was a lot of fun, looking forwards to going again hopefully next year :)
This looks so fun, I love it! Also Mickey saying 'I did my makeup!' Sounded like one of those WI ladies proudly owning
their scone recipe 😂
Thats amazing! I love that its a yearly tradition. Looks incredibly difficult but super fun!🐱
Can't believe it's already been a year since the last one! Love the chaos of these videos, it looks like so much fun 😅
I was in the audience and it was so good! 🐱
I'm amazed that putting on a musical in 24 hours with no sleep is even possible!
Can I just say I never watch vlogs (because I never have patience and they’re generally boring) but ahhh Mickey you are so entertaining I watched the whole video and it looks like you had so much fun!
You should watch his London underground theater challenge vlog! It was hilarious and so entertaining
This video makes me so so so happy. I look forward to whatever comes next year. And it made me so happy to hear your sister was there this year as well, because you said last year you did it together.
I wish to find something like this where I live, seems like a very challenging but very rewarding experience
That's so impressive! Well done. It looks like so much fun!
That was so much fun to watch--I don't know how you managed to rehearse and record all night long, but I loved it!
I was waiting for this!!
This was the vlog I didn’t know I needed…fab job Mickey!!
I was just thinking about your video from last year and wondered if this year's was coming up! Excellent work!
We loved having you in the 24 once again… it’s a tradition now! See you next year!!!
7:00 OMG THAT'S OWEN WHITE! He assistant directed my last musical that I did from January then performed in August, and he's directing my next musical which starts in October!!
OMG
...
I was not following you at this time last year, but dang! I LOVE this idea. I need to make this happen in my community.
This was sooooo cool. Looks amazingly fun
This looks like so much fun!
OMIGOD YOU GUYS!!!!!! THIS IS INSANE!!!!!!
What a brilliant idea but also at the same time terrifying lol I don't think I could have done anything like this in my 14 years of theatre. Having 3 months to learn a show was just about enough time for me. Loved Cats since I saw it during the original run in 1981.
Bravo! 😻 Looking forward to the next show same time, next year!
Least with this show, it will leave you with some fond MEMORIES.
I once saw a touring version of Cats , I sent back for the cast tins of sardines in tomato sauce.
I loved seeing this!! ❤❤
This was a delight to watch, thank you for sharing. I am very impressed with this concept and would totally support a show like this in my home town.
This sounds incredibly crazy but also fun, well done!
This brought me so much joy 🥹
Looks like so much fun! You did great on your makeup and looks like you had a great time!
THIS is what I would love to do! So much fun to be had. I wish they would have something like this here in CA!
We’re willing to travel!!!
Mickey Jo -- what fun! Your chronicalling your 24-hour CAT adventure reminded me of a similar experience where I had 24-hours to learn the 2nd lead in an original musical production of THE SCARLET PIMPERNEL. It was terrifying, enervating and every emotion in-between all at once. I'm glad I did it and I'm glad you got to be in CATS. Meow.
This is my favorite video every year.
Incredible job! Bravo!!!
Meow! This is awesome!! 😻😻
Love it!!!
Congratulations Mickey you smashed it!! (Also the ships wheel was my doing, courtesy of the Guildford Shakespeare company…)
What an amazing project!
omg the tension!
That looked like fun. Your makeup was amazing!
this looks so fun! I will have to keep an eye out for these. would love to join someday!
You have my full admiration for pulling this off and not being a dancer. I tried out for Flower Drum Song not being a dancer and was in pain for a week because I pulled something in my leg. Bravo!
Just found and enjoyed your explaining Cats the Musical video🍷🙀😹😻 thank you, a 🐶 person
"There'll be another one this time next year." So it's gonna be Sunset Blvd!
Oh my gosh you do look like Peter Criss from Kiss, but also when your friend said he looked like Tony the Tiger I burst out laughing! Spot on!!
How cuteeeee and bravo to you all
Thanks for letting us tag along on your 24-hour adventure, buddy!
What a fantastic experience! (Why does being a Cat suit you so much?!).
I’ve done this before and omg so much fun!
Still can’t believe you all did this in 24 hours. Absolutely amazing 😻 Well done!
I wish this happened in Australia I would totally buy tickets.
Oh my GOSH I want to do this someday. There must be a place, and I will find it...
The look you're pulling off from 29:30 my poor heart you're so beautiful ❤❤❤
In Adelaide (Australia) our Amateur companies have done a few of these as charity fundraisers. We have had: South Pacific, Guys & Dolls, Little Shop, Chicago and Grease.
Im fascinated that you get precast....for ours the cast audition. Only orch and crew know there spots. also we dont sleep over, we go home between midnight and 8am
Guess who got to film you cat napping? Only Rum Tum Tugger…..😂
"A CAT THAT'S IN A GANG"
If i could perform somewhat decently this looks like great fun. Have to put some practice in as i cant sing dance or act 😂😂
I've asked about next year's coming all the way from Birmingham to do it
It seems like such a blast!
You are the most adorable cat!!! This was so much fun to watch!!! ❤️❤️❤️
You were A Beautiful Cat 🐈⬛ Mickey Did the money go to Charity It was FABULOUS you were AMAZING loved it ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤xx😊
How do you get involved in these?! Looks so fun!
Looks like such a fun experience but so tiring to do it in just 24 hours and keep rehearsing through the night! Well done with the make up! Looks great! Auditioned for a production of cats but didn’t get in
So did this run on the 2nd of September Saturday night and now Mickey has edited it and posted it after?
Yep, that's right!
@@MickeyJoTheatre thank you! I’m such a big fan!!
I think you had as much rehearsal as Elaine Psige did 42 years ago.
The amount of jealousy I feel watching this XD Performing cats is a childhood dream for me too, so it's wonderful to live vicariously through your experience here
I’m curious how this is cast. Could you share?
hi! i’m the daughter of the director and choreographer and the one running the mics on the sound desk. to answer your question, we spend lots of time going through videos that have been sent from the participants to try and make the cast. it’s a lot of trail and error to see if we can get the right people for the right parts and in the end it is always perfect! i hope this helped :D
@@aeden_king Interesting! This is such a feat and it appears from the vlog, a labor of love. Congrats! I hope it was everything you wanted it to be!
Congrats, seems a labour of love
From the clues given, Im guessing Next to Normal. I could be wrong.
So you missed the obvious....."oh meow god, hey" opener!
Looks like you had a blast!
You're awesome! I just Joined your channel too. 😎
Cats is cat-tastic and I ❤❤❤❤❤ cats 😻.
Congrats.
Dang and I thought putting together les mis in two weeks was intense lol
Awesome!! But you didn't tell us what part Rachel played!
Woo I was there I was the son of the director
This experience looks so fun! Except Cats...I hate Cats. 😂
😱😱😱😻👏👏🎭🎼💖💖💖
I’m so excited for you We think it’s 🐈⬛ CATS too you would Be A Brilliant ‘Mungo Jerry’ or ‘Rumple Teazer’& will you please Review’The Little Big things’ next please you are a Brilliant Critic! (Beautiful Cats🐈⬛ Enjoy) !!! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾Loving watching you rehearse Break a leg xx
Wou beatiful cat
Did your sister have a named role??
Actually this could be a gimmick for my LGBTQ choir. Arrive at 8am on Saturday morning and 8pm sing concert from memory. Hmm. It actually sounds like fun.
Please tell me they give you free coffee!
I saw a post about cats in 24 hours and I hoped it was your show!
