Extract from the 2009 Joining the Chorus Musical "Barnum" performed at the Comedy Theatre, Melbourne. "Come Follow the Band" featuring the Barnum ensemble and members of the Flying Fruit Fly Circus.
@jameala Are play is different. We added featured singers/dancers (I am one) and the clowns don't sing I believe because they open pretty much every scene. But if they were clowns they should have had training. But it was ok. And at the begining we changed it to solos so ya.
Mr. Kle001, Please tell me that you are studying theatre - acting, music, etc. I have watched all the videos of your performance in "Barnum." (It is one of my favorite musicals. I served as stage manager/acting coach on one production and was the director on another.) I truly enjoyed your performance and truly believe you have a gift. I have been an actor, a director, a playwright, & an actor for 30 years. Trust me when I say you are talented.
This troupe clearly has talent when it comes to dancing, but the acting and singing is very mediocre. Performing this musical requires a TON of energy when performing.
this dance is so fun! i'm doing barnum with my theatre group and it took ages to learn this 😂
Amazing Barnum with the talented Brian Conley enjoyed it
yay thats me in the pink hoop skirt!! :D so much fun :)
Is no one going to mention that they zoom in on a sousaphone while a bass guitar plays the riff?????
I’m performing there
I think that they did really well and everyone who thinks otherwise, just know they probably put a lot of work into this.

@xshdowshotsx Plus, ther dancing is all over the place. From the first time the clowns walk out, they are out of step.
best thing was the ending
Lack of energy by all. This show demands untold energy for it to work as a ensemble piece and it’s not as easy as you may think.

oh
Definitely nor a professional cast. They would be laughed off a Broadway stage.
This number seems very underwhelming. It could've been spectacular!
a bit lack lustre
It's not getting good comments.
I thought it was a marching band
Baton...not batten..wth
these guy''s vocals are worse than our school's ...
