    I think part of the reason I love this musical is simply because you can tell they’re all just having the time of their lives every time they perform it!

      That always brings back the memory of my manager at time coming back into our department at work to tell me the same while all the crazy news of that day was unfolding.

      My daughter was 8 months old. We went to a meeting together about a new position I was going to have at my job when it all happened. I remember driving is home, with Imus on the radio and thinking that he was replaying audio from when the towers were bombed in 1993. It was only when I got into my house and turned on the tv that I realized what happened. I put my kid in her room and sat and absorbed what was on CNN and couldn’t parse how such evil could occur in a world that had her in it. When I finally saw the show in Boston last year, I wept for that memory as well as the world that she grew up in. This show is a gift.

    Also, how cute were the guys that were crying in the end...

    6:44 just shows how much of an inspiration this song is for girls and women everywhere who have to deal with "That's a man's job" or "You're just a girl, what can you do?"

  • @stormbob
    @stormbob Před 5 lety +135

    Rachel is just incredible. I could listen to her sing Me & The Sky and The Wizard & I on a loop forever.

    • @stormbob
      @stormbob Před 5 lety +10

      Her expression when she finishes the line "The one thing I loved more than anything was used as the bomb" is perfect. You can just feel Beverley's whole high-flying, fast-paced life as an airline captain come to a screeching halt and feel her dying a little bit inside.

    • @LAUREN-dp7vx
      @LAUREN-dp7vx Před 5 lety +5

      How alike are they musically though?? I dared her to sing the Wizard and I instead of Me and the Sky at the end of it if they do a muck-up matinee when she leaves!

      @allymurphy2515 Před 5 lety +9

      @Sivan Yi they did a sort of mini show in St. John's (just the songs and no dialogue) but they haven't done any actual performances in Newfoundland as far as I can tell. It's a shame though! I know people who were depicted in the play and haven't even gotten the chance to see it yet!

      @krazycatz Před 4 měsíci

      I was not there at this performance and I just watched it here on CZcams. I’m sure that the gentleman signing on the side of the stage was signing the entire performance and they just happened to film him signing just that one particular spot.

      I have only seen this on CZcams videos and you are correct about how it has an emotional impact around the world. Even watching something for example like the Korean version even though I don’t understand a word of Korean shows just how much this story affected the entire world. I honestly cannot tell you how many different languages I have seen parts of this musical in and all of them have been brilliant.

      Most likely what happened was that whoever shot this video did not plug into the soundboard. I’m not sure if I can explain it correctly but if you don’t plug your audio line into the soundboard it will come out sounding awful.
