THIS IS GREAT. The dads are adorable. This Logainne is especially swell because of her age. So much expression and power. I hope she continues to go places.
god i LOVE this. I've spent all afternoon looking at different versions of this number in particular (brainrot moment) and this is genuinely by far my absolute favourite.
This. Is. Amazing. I'm playing this part in a show next month and this is better than most of the adults I've seen on TH-cam. Keep up the good work, Siena!
I've been going through videos of this song to study for the audition and this is the BEST ONE SO FAR!! You go sis!! And Dads!! Y'all knocking everyone out of the water!!!
From one singer to another, this is very good. Just a tip though, when you are belting high notes, you are going to wan to tilt your head back. DON'T. It will strain and damage your vocal chords, and we wouldn't want that!!

Beautiful! We also share the same name, but mine has two N's. I can see her up in lights on Broadway. There needs to be a convention of theatre kids/thespians that are also named Sien(n)a... how old is she now?
The dads are so precious XD
THIS IS GREAT. The dads are adorable. This Logainne is especially swell because of her age. So much expression and power. I hope she continues to go places.

Harriett Bauer Absolutely! I can totally see that.

LOGAINNE
Though I practice yoga
I don’t breathe
I try not to disappoint
But still I
Disappoint the dads
Who my friends mock
Kids are mean
Kids’ll talk
All my so-called friends roll their eyes
They’re incredibly petty
Because my dads are my dads
And alright enough already
ALL
Woe is me
Woe is me
LOGAINNE
Which is why I gotta win
This spelling bee

LOGAINNE
Every now and then
She sends a card
Life and men, she writes

She would like to meet me
When I’ve grown and I’ve burst like a comet
But I’m so stressed
By my stress
I just wanna up and vomit
ALL
Woe is me

Part of the humor of the show is adults playing parts of children. These kids are super talented, but it's not really a show for this age.
She does not have a lisp in real life!
SienaSkyeW Yeah, the character does...?
@@malikrodriguez9715 r you deaf
this is so great!!❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Why is one of the dads just Mark from Rent LOL, insanely good performance btw
Beautiful! We also share the same name, but mine has two N's. I can see her up in lights on Broadway. There needs to be a convention of theatre kids/thespians that are also named Sien(n)a... how old is she now?
My sister has to play this part as a 16-year old and you are so much better
i really don't like this being played by children.
They probably censored most of the stuff. Plus by 11 you already learn about this stuff. They seem like smart kids too
