Everyone is absolutely fabulous in this scene, but Joey Freakin Richter takes it to a whole other level beyond fabulous. I don't even know how to begin to express how much I love his portrayal of this character
I think that as this is the first part of act 2, they might have had a break between this and the last part, but they always change quickly, so just general appreciation ;)
who else spent the first 4:00 minutes trying to figure out who was missing from the cast only to be caught totally off guard when it turned out corey was playing the prince?
Okay, so I have watched this show like five times now, but this is the first time that I noticed that the prince is missing his shoe when he comes out and I am actually dying.
Ainsley Davis I mean I'm one year late but thanks for pointing that out. Brian breaking character like that is literally the best thing I've ever seen oml
Why is no one talking about how fucking dope this whole flashback part is?? It’s so cool, I’ve never seen anything like it in live theatre Edit: also that one girl has a less than 20 second quick change holy shit
Those quick changes for Curt involved putting on or taking off the jacket and moving about two metres, but I'm still impressed. Also, that was the most elegant 'fuck you' that has ever been.
OddUndeniably only after that comment i realised it was indeed the same Curt who had to change and climb, and not some flashback Curt. it's genius and i'm slow.
The fact Joe Walker, as an American, is capable of doing two different, believable, British dialects in the same show is so impressive. Like that took a lot of practice and training on his part, either over the course of his life or in preparation for the show.
I found this like yesterday and I can't believe I only found it yesterday cause I'm a huge fan of Starkid and anything that involves Joey Richter, Joe Walker, and Lauren Lopez. And this part was released on my birthday!!
So much shade, drag him! The lines in this show are brilliant, and the acting AMAZING! I just can't get over some of the line deliveries, truly beautiful.
On the DVD (I can't remember if it came with the digital download as well though) you can see all the princes they used in the behind the scenes extra!
Yeah, the night I saw it appeared to be a random guy they pulled off the street! In the reel they have like a super drunk chick and a dog among other people you'll recognize ;)
So thanks to you guys, "flip-diggety"(?) has become me and my friends' new way of showing our excitement. I don't even know how it happened, but we said it all the time in Chicago last week. Darn you TCB!
Woah the is one of my favourite characters of Joe's! Really amazing acting and singing! Loving Lauren choreography in this and the whole show! I'm now addicted to the soundtrack
Radio host(I can't spell his name): I just love your gown Cynthia: *mouths* thank you Radio host: would you please turn around? Cynthia: *mouths* no I don't know why this so so funny to me.
I was so enveloped in the story and the way this was filmed that I forgot it was a live play and almost forgot to appreciate the super quick changes in the rewinding/fast-forwarding part! Crazy!
“just keep on smiling and put on a show if you are lying they don’t have to know” and “the prince how do you fiiiNNNdddd him” are some of the best lines in all musical history
I've seen 5:36 as a writing prompt on Pinterest before... Now I don't know if the prompt copied this, if they used the prompt, or if it's just a coincidence. But I like to think that the writers were just scrolling through Pinterest one day, found that post and thought, "we should make a musical out of this"
2:23 You can just see Brian smiling in the background and the intense eye contact between him and Esther. God, this entire scene is incredible, Joey Ritcher is a fucking national treasure.
How did the people in the live audience see the time/place changes? Was there a screen or something? And in one of the earlier acts, the note from Cynthia?
I just love Joey in this. “The New Democratic Replubics of Old Socialist Prussian Sloviskia.” We’ve come along way. You were up down you were left you were right”
this is like my 4th time watching and i just now realized that when wagner tells cynthia "i just love your gown, would you please turn around." she just shakes her head like absolutely not :) love you lauren lopez
I know it's in character but Cynthia just looks so pissed during the entire number and it's cracking me up so much

HE'S JOEY FREAKIN' RICHTER!
I think this is Joey’s best role ever. The little lisp just kills me. I’d love to see him revisit the character again, maybe in a skit
Watching this for the second time, and I just realized that the prince died on his first time out in public.
That's actually kind of sad...
This is why you don’t go out in public!
Spoiler alert lol
Nikko Spelled Like That this comment aged well...
Isinla yikes
Isinla major oof
Can we just appreciate the amazing quick-changes from Curt, Tessa, Joe W and Brian?
Wasn't it during intermission?
Oh sorry never mind
Lucy Walker but during the rest of the musical, they do it too
I think that as this is the first part of act 2, they might have had a break between this and the last part, but they always change quickly, so just general appreciation ;)
Really though, Tessa changing out of her ball outfit into barbs costume though. So so quick. Damn.
2:19
Joey: I just love your gown, won't you please turn around-
Lauren: No.
it’s Joey
@@bisexualbestie4351 AH oh no I wrote Jeoy bahhaha
So.... did the prince throw his shoe out of the wagon to check how well it bounced? (What a great musical number!)
NapstAleks Does he even know how to throw anything though?
The prince is so scatterbrained he probably doesn't even know
TTO.
*cap voice* I get that reference
No, that's Lauren
who else spent the first 4:00 minutes trying to figure out who was missing from the cast only to be caught totally off guard when it turned out corey was playing the prince?
Yup
Same fam.
Omg me too hahaha
It was spoiled to me by the the description.
Yup
I love Lauren so much! Her facial expressions and the dance moves were awesome and that " fuck you" was beautiful
So...Joey is now Caesar Flickerman, and I am okay with that.
barbaro267 omg yes! I thought pretty much the same thing
Okay, so I have watched this show like five times now, but this is the first time that I noticed that the prince is missing his shoe when he comes out and I am actually dying.
He threw it off the wagon to see how it bounced. Or something… I dunno.

I came to the comments to see if anyone else thought this...
he’s always attractive :]

Especially his voice
THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING
7:48 Looks like Draco stole some of his father's moves! xD
Yeah 😂😂😂
No 'cause we know that Dobby is his father and not Lucius😂
@@malfoyyoulittleshit6864 Master has given Dobby some moves, Dobby is freee
how is that not a meme yet
Joey: "I'm famed radio and television personality Vanger Borschtit."
Darren: "Woo!"
Tessa dancing with Brian is amazing. He's like 3 feet taller than her 😂
I KNOW
Joe Walker is the hottest man on earth
Very true
@Imme VD I watched them because of Lauren Lopez. Joe is amazing! But I am in love with Lauren
the ransom note thing at 9:00 is so funny to me im so upset that no one laughed
teslin the audience audio is toned down so you can hear the speech better so they probably did laugh you just can’t hear it
BAHAHAHA UR RIGHT THATS FUNNY
Really love Cynthias dance move at 7:52 . Really classical yet modern!
Pantaloon I love your name and your pfp!! And same!!
Lauren Lopez is an AMAZING choreographer. She also did the opening of TGWDLM and Show Stoppin Number (by starkid)
RavenclawProud she’s just incredible right!
Her confidence to pull it off is my lifelong goal
oddly attracted to joeys character in this and i don't know why
Because Joey?
I blame Joey, someone who I would be gay for
Because it's Joey
well.. i mean
With the glasses he looks kinda like scrags from solve it squad.
he'ss goin rogue, roGUE, ROGUE!
kayla ROGUES ARE WE
WE ARE THE HARLOTS AND THE HUSSIES
WE ARE THE SWINDLERS AND THE CHEATS
Rouges are we

2:27 Vladmir Putin breaking character.
Ainsley Davis I mean I'm one year late but thanks for pointing that out. Brian breaking character like that is literally the best thing I've ever seen oml
poopin*
"Thank You thank you that guy knows what's up!" I died that was great.
it was Darren xD
Something about the way Lauren says “clinking” makes my day.
It clearly seems that Brian shares that sentiment, you can see Vladimir Poopin breaking character as she says it
Why is no one talking about how fucking dope this whole flashback part is?? It’s so cool, I’ve never seen anything like it in live theatre
Edit: also that one girl has a less than 20 second quick change holy shit
The youtuber
Who do you mean?
@@ava8340 Tessa, she has to change out of her gown after the song and into her Barbara clothes for the flashback :)
Áine Ní Cholgáin
Oh, ok. I don't pay attention to these kind of details XD
I always assumed that the flashback was a different scene and they just spliced them together in the DVD edit?
You should see how they do the time turner scenes in Harry Potter and the cursed child. It’s really cool.
Those quick changes for Curt involved putting on or taking off the jacket and moving about two metres, but I'm still impressed. Also, that was the most elegant 'fuck you' that has ever been.
OddUndeniably only after that comment i realised it was indeed the same Curt who had to change and climb, and not some flashback Curt. it's genius and i'm slow.
Did nobody else get Holy Musical B@man flashbacks when Curt was "going rogue"?
yes
I don’t get flashbacks... I remember bad things vividly
@@maze1391 I love the reference and your user name!!
I did
I totally agree Curt, the sight of your own blood is much scarier than other people's blood!
I hate other people’s blood more than mine
I can handle my own in some amounts because I am a woman, but like if it's excessive. Nuh uh.
I'm more scared about other's reactions to their blood.
Lmao what do you think people with uteruses do every month
The fact Joe Walker, as an American, is capable of doing two different, believable, British dialects in the same show is so impressive. Like that took a lot of practice and training on his part, either over the course of his life or in preparation for the show.
Is Joey playing Austin Powers?? Lol
The 11th Doctor i thought the same exact thing
I saw the show the night that the puppy dog guess-stared as the prince. Wish they'd filmed that one!
+Cayley Jameson Who were all the princes? I know Jon Cozart was one, but I don't know the others.
How was the flashback scene live?
@@Soepsas talent
Soepsas I imagine it was edited so it took way less time to switch between scenes.
Laughed so hard at the 'fuck you'
me too xD
Bokrotta the most elegant f*** you in history
7:51 that's the most graceful way I've ever seen someone flip someone off.
Joey's role in this song is so criminally underrated. He's genuinely hilarious 100% of the time that he's on stage.
I found this like yesterday and I can't believe I only found it yesterday cause I'm a huge fan of Starkid and anything that involves Joey Richter, Joe Walker, and Lauren Lopez. And this part was released on my birthday!!
When Corey came out I was shocked I did NAZI that coming
Also I love how it’s his “first public appearance” and it’s Corey’s first time on stage
I thought dorris
I loved everything about this video but my favorite part was Lauren/Cynthia's elegant little "fuck you" at 7:51 when she was dancing haha
when they constantly plant darren in the audience so he can call out the correct thing/cheer at the correct moment
So much shade, drag him! The lines in this show are brilliant, and the acting AMAZING! I just can't get over some of the line deliveries, truly beautiful.
Maaan I kinda wished it was Jon Cozart who walked out 😂😂 his confusion as the Prince was something I'd have liked to see again LOL
On the DVD (I can't remember if it came with the digital download as well though) you can see all the princes they used in the behind the scenes extra!
Oh yay!!
+The Curious Lo so it's different princes? I was wondering why there wasn't a credit for the role in the description
Yeah, the night I saw it appeared to be a random guy they pulled off the street! In the reel they have like a super drunk chick and a dog among other people you'll recognize ;)
OMG!!!!!! I DIDN'T REALISE THERE WERE DIFFERENT ONES! THAT BRILLIANT!
“Like pulling my toenails right off of my feet”
MK nails the badass Russian spy
we love the prince (?) has got to be my favorite song so far. oh tin can bros, how DO you do it?
So thanks to you guys, "flip-diggety"(?) has become me and my friends' new way of showing our excitement. I don't even know how it happened, but we said it all the time in Chicago last week. Darn you TCB!
this number is so entertaining!!
also, Vanger Borschtit. His voice. His hair. His singing. His moves. XD
Lauren Lopez has always been my favorite character in this show
Woah the is one of my favourite characters of Joe's! Really amazing acting and singing! Loving Lauren choreography in this and the whole show! I'm now addicted to the soundtrack
Radio host(I can't spell his name): I just love your gown
Cynthia: *mouths* thank you
Radio host: would you please turn around?
Cynthia: *mouths* no
I don't know why this so so funny to me.
MK sounds just like my Russian friend when she's saying "God stop it stop it"
lmao
Ohhh my goooood! How Cynth dances with Susan - it looks so great! Everyone looks so damn great! I LOVE this part!
Lauren Lopez makes me happy.
You have just explained my life.
2:24 you can see Brian start to hold in laughter and it's hilarious
1:07 that smooth wig adjustment tho 😳
Joey trust me, I can't stop smiling either XD
when Curt was wailing i got huge Lavender Brown vibes
Susan. You're a man of honour.
7:38 oooooh right in the subpoena
this song is so passive aggressive and i’m living for it
*sigh* I find myself often reminding myself to "Just keep on smiling and put on a show. If you are lying they don't have to know..."
At 4:39 Brian kinda looks like he's dying inside
Joey, you know how to make anyones day better!!!
I was so enveloped in the story and the way this was filmed that I forgot it was a live play and almost forgot to appreciate the super quick changes in the rewinding/fast-forwarding part! Crazy!
“just keep on smiling and put on a show if you are lying they don’t have to know” and “the prince how do you fiiiNNNdddd him” are some of the best lines in all musical history
i really enjoyed the mood-music in the scene with Lauren and Curt, it reminded me a lot of Professor Layton!
Is Joey's reporter character an Austin Powers reference? Groovy baby
I've been waiting so long to see who would be the prince for the filmed version! What a great choice!
Rea Was it different every show?
@@zsazsalilchi Apparently so. Two of which are a dog and Jon Cozart
Corey Lubowich appreciation. For someone who’s not an actor and is also directing the show he did a really good job!!
I just love how Cynthia's assistant is called Susan XD
7:48 so majestic....... like father, like son (AVPS, lol)
4:30 HOW HAVE I NEVER NOTICED THE PRINCE IS ONLY WEARING ONE SHOE I-
He knew where it was when he threw it OFF the wagon
Thank God this is on TH-cam so I can pause and laugh my ass off without missing anything! The Prince kissing the microphone? 😂😂😂
10:20 "BUT based solely on MY emotional response" Joeys delivery is impeccable
7:51 how I flip people off from now on.
7:51 her little "fuck you" gets me every time, I swear
the prince is only wearing one shoe
He must of thrown the other one off the back of a wagon to see how it bounced
He lost a shoe two months ago
I've seen 5:36 as a writing prompt on Pinterest before... Now I don't know if the prompt copied this, if they used the prompt, or if it's just a coincidence. But I like to think that the writers were just scrolling through Pinterest one day, found that post and thought, "we should make a musical out of this"
i love how in the subtitles of stuff they put *Darren Criss whoops* and stuff, it's so funny
I love Joeys characters so much
This might be Joey's best performance, he's clearly relishing every second of playing this character
Looks like Mary Kate and Joe saved plenty of room for Jesus
Katie k 😂😂😂
Social distancing
His name is Vladimr Poopin...
" Ow, man, " has the same energy as "Ouch, lady, you smacked my butt!"
TurtleFace underrated comment
Joey can go from the goofiest thing ever to a really thought out and well done villain
When I listened to we love the prince on the sound track I was so excited for this scene and boy you don't disappoint. Brilliant😂😂
2:23
You can just see Brian smiling in the background and the intense eye contact between him and Esther.
God, this entire scene is incredible, Joey Ritcher is a fucking national treasure.
Her name is Esther, not Al. It was Al at the time, but it isn't anymore. Just so you're aware
@@e-brown Ah shit, sorry, I didn't know she was... I'll change it, and thanks for telling me :)
@@slaughterofelysium Yeah no problem
Yay! This is my favorite scene and song from the show. So excited it's up on TH-cam finally, Joey is a gem!
How did the people in the live audience see the time/place changes? Was there a screen or something? And in one of the earlier acts, the note from Cynthia?
IDKijustlikebooks I wondered the same thing...
Usally shows where the sets change the script says so.
There is a screen
I watched this now for the 20th time or so and I just thought to myself that I would totally watch that show Joey‘s doing.
at 2:42 joey goes “muah” and its so cute to me.
" Don't you look dashing, just look SMASHING!!" 😂
Possibly unpopular opinion: This is one of the best numbers in the show. Like, top three or five at least.
"I‘LL ALWAYS HAVE YOUR BACK!"
*"eh."*
What a great line xD
7:41 right in the subpoenaaa
Mk's face, when curt started wailing was hilarious
Okay but Brian’s face when he’s trying not to laugh at 2:26
“Flip diggity, I’m barely bbbrrRRREEEAAATTHIIIINng.”
God I love Joey Richter..
Tessa looks like she’s having so much fun while they dance
I've only been able to hear the song from the album and I've been waiting to see who the prince was and once I saw Corey I started laughing so hard😂😂
I just love Joey in this. “The New Democratic Replubics of Old Socialist Prussian Sloviskia.” We’ve come along way. You were up down you were left you were right”
Ridiculous that I'm only getting round to watching this now! Apologies TCBs!
Really enjoying it so far and finding it incredibly entertaining! 👍🏻
I've spent the last minute replaying 10:00 and laughing
this is like my 4th time watching and i just now realized that when wagner tells cynthia "i just love your gown, would you please turn around." she just shakes her head like absolutely not :) love you lauren lopez
What happened between Curt and Tatiana before Barb arrived????
