This looks completely professional. How the hell does this high school have so many fabulous dancers and singers and actors. What is the director feeding them. How.
All organic, non GMO. 😂
check out their production of the producers too, it's not on this channel but its on YT elsewhere. its so good
The guy playing Jack really nailed the dreamer and “go west young man” aspect of Jack’s character. Great show!
jacks back must hurt from carrying this show
whoever played jack also played harry in their production of mamma mia in 2020 and what the fuck why is he so good with accents
also im fucking bingeing this highschool's recordings of their musicals they're actually so amazing
I just played harry in my schools production of Mamma Mia and Jack is a dream role so I vibe with this comment wholeheartedly lol
It's here, the recording of Summit High School's production of Newsies! Due to the pandemic, this show was performed outdoors (in 90-degree temperatures) June 2nd - 6th, 2021. Be sure to check out Footloose, our most recent musical production: th-cam.com/video/k_fZ6F6waI8/w-d-xo.html
What happened to the clue performance you guys did?
Stoppp I came back to watch mamma mia again bc I’m doing it at my school and here I am omg so excited
OMG What an amazing production! This was brilliant! Jack 👍🏼👍🏼 he’s destined for stardom. WOW
Congratulations to every talented kid in this show! Continued success in your futures! ❤ Also 👍🏼👍🏼 to the production team as well!
🤩🤩🤩🤩
I have to say, i'm absolutely in love with every single member of the cast. honestly, they are so pretty. like.... i envy them in every single way possible. idk how to put this but they were amazing and I wish I could act like that!!
you guys are so goddamn pretty like wtf
Ive been waiting for you guys to do a musical or olay againnnnn, ive been watching clue and mamma mia non stop bc last year we did clue, and our spring musical is going to be mamma mia and I just love yalls the best
What an incredible production despite all the obstacles you faced. I just happened to stumble across your school productions on TH-cam last night and I’m blown away. I hope these students participate in International Thespians and other similar competitions for theater. Keep up the stellar work.
God gave you all such talent. Thank you for sharing it with us. Good luck in your various career! You will remember this musical for the rest of your life!
Having this was completely invaluable for me to memorize an audition piece literally the night before 😅
It is so hard to find lyrics or anything for mti music instead of Broadway 😢
BRUH the way you worked around the kissing scene was perfect!! I wish we coulda done that when I was Katherine in my high school's production!! 😂
This is amazing!
Doing this soon so excited
Congratulations Summit HS.
shut up jack is so cute omg
LOVED this production of Newsies ! I've seen the young man who played Jack in other previous productions where he danced in the chorus. This is perfect for him. And the kid who played Crutchie was outstanding !!! He played it to the hilt !
This Jack is a babe, and a good dancer! It's interesting that Mush also uses crutches. Wonder what they were thinking with that -- or maybe the actor really needs them?
They actually did! That was our dance captain who tore their ACL right before our performances :(
A great
race is amazing in this
Is it just me or does their Jack kinda looks like Shawn Mendes lol
Is the music being played by the HighSchool orchestra or are tracks from MTI being used?
sadly, we had to use MTI tracks. with the limited seating space in our courtyard, we could not figure out where to put the pit. BUT we will have live pit this year for Footloose when we are back in our auditorium!
@@annepoyner499 The kids did SO GOOD with the tracks. Tracks, as you know, are not easily cued or easy to follow. Your kids were Brilliant. Really good performance of this 'not so easy' show. Thx, much.
@@bob5188 THANK YOU! yes, I was really worried about them picking up cues/timing without a conductor, but very proud!
Where was this performed? Do you guys have an outdoor theatre too? If so, wow. I wish I went to this school.
Due to COVID-related restrictions, this performance (along with our Fall 2020 production of "Radium Girls") was performed at a custom-built stage in a previously unused courtyard. Everything, from the stage itself to the lighting truss, was hand-built and detailed over the course of 6 months!
I want to APOLOGISE sincerely for my shitty comments about this production. Some of them still hold true but I went way beyond harsh. SUMMIT deliver hands down the best HS productions of musicals EVER. PIPPIN, MAMA MIA,, HOW TO SUCCEED et al. All of then would translate as Broadway ready. I need to acknowledge the remarkable talent of DONALD GRENNON. His dancing is superb and his vocal ability continues to soar. I was guilty of criticizing his SANTA FE post (he was obviously prepping for NEWSIES). I was wrong again. This man is a star On the rise. All he needs to do now is own his triple threat talent. Mitchell should watch his back 😊😊 Sorry once again. Yeah. There must have been something in my Cheerios. Heartfelt wishes for a great 2022.
Go Donald!!!!
Can do Annie the musical xxxx
Go Donald!
Hi! Where can I rent the props? Putting together the same show, thank you
your ohhohohohoyyyyyster
why is there a crutchie clone? genuine question because they go from needing the crutch to just putting them down
genuinely one of the most baffling decisions I have EVER seen in a musical, especially a production with otherwise good quality
Hi! The "clone" was actually our dance captain who sadly tore her ACL right before our performances. In order to keep her in the show, we gave her crutches for when she had to move around! I hope this clears it up :)
More talented than me lol
Is it just me or is the guy at 27:26 kinda cute
1:56:36 THEEEEE EEEEEND 1:56:40 OOOOOF 1:56:41 PEEEEEP RAAAAALLY!
Best Crutchy ever
you have severely poor judgement
Whoa! I was so looking forward to this. I am a huge fan of Summit's work, but this is AWFUL I understand the outdoor limitations but that does not even begin to define the problems. The casting of girls as newsies is historically incorrect and amounts to nothing more than woke BS, and doesn't play. Again, we have a girl tavern owner who looks all of 13. For the most part, the dialogue is little more than parrot perfect. The 'theme park' moustaches on the childlike Pulitzer and his crony are laughable, as is the mangled version of BOTTOM LINE. Miss Medda cuts it in her big scene but what happened to the vocal chorus? Katherine makes a fair fist of WATCH WHAT HAPPENS but she can't act. The can't act problem is pretty much across the board. I guess it is almost a victimless crime because the audience seemed happy with what they were watching. If there is a victim in all of this mish mash, it is DONALD GRENNON. He manages to shine in a sea of ineptitude. I love this kid. A stunning dancer as always. and he is beginning to nail his vocals. I was guilty of dissing his "at home" version of SANTA FE something like a year back for being pitchy and less than heartfelt. Huge improvement, mister. His "acting" is fine but he has to invest more honest emotion. Romeo better not be another walk through.
Sorry Hilltopper. You blew it
this was absolutely unnecessary and you could've kept all your rude comments to yourself. you also clearly didn't watch any of it if you thought it was awful. you are also forgetting that these are teenagers and not broadway actors, but that's besides the point because everyone in the cast did an incredible job.
Bro get a hobby or something, this is just sad
dude they’re high schoolers let them have fun
My favorite part of this comment is complaining about the girls in the cast not being historically accurate. Characters in this show are both far older and younger than what they actually would, and most importantly, wouldn’t be singing or dancing. Some musicals can be grounded and realistic but this is clearly not the main goal of Newsies.
I don't normally reply to TH-cam comments, but I couldn't just let this one sit here without calling you out on your words.
It seems as if you were expecting a Broadway-level production. Might I remind you that these are HIGHSCHOOLERS??? Not only that, they were performing outdoors in 90 degree weather, and to a track instead of a live orchestra. Literally EVERYTHING was against them, and they managed to stick with it and give the best show they possibly could despite the circumstances.
I am fairly certain that you, even if ideal circumstances, could not sing, dance, or act better than any of these kids did. That's why you sit at home and comment mean things their videos instead.
No, this production wasn't perfect. News flash: no show ever has been, not even on Broadway or West End. The live recordings you see of these shows have been filmed over several days and heavily edited. The beauty of musical theatre is that it's NOT perfect-- everyone performs each role differently, and the flaws are what make it so beautiful.
Also, as far as their being female actors, don't you think they KNOW it's not historically accurate? Neither are dance numbers, and people randomly bursting out in song! Genderbending is becoming a new thing in the theater community, especially for schools like this who likely didn't have enough qualified men to play all of the Newsies. Anyone with a bit on sense would recognize that the girls performed these parts just as well as the boys did.
So please, until YOU can get up on a stage in 90-degree weather and put on a perfect performance on Newsies, just be quiet. Oh, and find something better to do than commenting terrible things.
