That's amazing for a High School performance! Great talents!!
Bobby Phillip
Yeah honestly it's impressive and it's very well shot too.
So true
Where is the balanced critical review?? Right here: pretty good (pun intended); a tad forced, rushed, and unnatural. There's a reason film directors take 💯 takes....
@@yogadr6 it's a highschool production, not a Broadway musical.
Eliza Masewicz as Maria has a beautiful voice and perfect stage presence. She does so much with the lyric "I feel pretty". I've never heard it sung so beautifully, and so convincingly youthfully.
her accent its so amazing, so is her singing,i love her lmao.
i can't do that accent and i'm from latinoamerica, lol
What a good Maria! She could directly join broadway!
jajaja this Maria its, adorable, crazy and good singer
This version of María with Eliza Masewicz it's adorable and perfect. I'm sure Leonard Bernstein would love this María.
It's a very high standard high school show.! Bravo! Bravo!
These Stratford productions are marvelous for a high school troupe.
that gal in orange just has some super class beauty to her...cant explain it
I see no difference to a Broadway production. So good!
This maria is soooo perfect
THEY ALL ARE PERFECT
They did so well! Can’t believe this is a high school production!
i'm dying to see it all.
Whatever my mind vjdbbbv ghjhfgfh.vvvvccffgffgf
The original lyric is "bright" rhyming with "tonight". They changed it to "gay" (rhyming with "day") to match the setting in the movie.
"The original lyric is "bright" rhyming with "tonight". They changed it to "gay" (rhyming with "gay") to match the setting in the movie". You prolly mean 'day' but we get your point.
@@americandreamer6092 You prolly meant 'probably', but I get you point.
Bravo to any theatre group that performs west side story. It’s the best way to introduce modern young folk into a classic Shakespeare story.
I usually hate this part but these girls interpreted it perfectly. Gave me a new perspective on the song. Just brilliant.
What?! Is this a high school production?!
I thought this is professional production... amazing quality 👏👏👏
I’m so excited to see Spielberg’s remake of this masterful classic by Leonard Bernstein. And the fact he kept it in the original Bernstein time period only makes me even more ecstatic.
That Maria is the perfect Maria she did amazing
Is this a special highschool ? They are really really talented, not only the amazing voice, but the acting is perfect !
this is just a public high school
Perfect? LOL!
Eliza Masewicz - Wspaniała aktorka, solistka i przeurocza młoda dama. Gratuluje.
Such a beautiful voice!
this was really well done! awesome!! 😍😍
Outstanding! Amazing talents. Better than the scene in the movie!
I love it. Nice change from the embroidery shop to a bedroom
I really like the acting and the music.
Very very charismatic girls. Love this performance!!
she did amazing!!!!
Good golly, this is fantastic!
TOTALLY AWESOME!!!
the actress playing maria is so beautiful! (and cute too) 😙
BRAVO!!!!! from Japan.
Bravo Maria! Hello from Poland
I REALLY HOPE MY LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL (SANTA MONICA HIGH SCHOOL) PUTS THIS ON ONE YEAR. ONE OF MY FAVIORTE MUSICALS!
Great performance
Very good!
Huge fan from Assam ,India
Greate for the High School. Greetings from Russia!
Doggone! Age ain't nothing but a number to these performers--top notch, ladies!
This is so helpful my school is doing this im Consuela and this is giving me an idea of what I’m going to plau
Fabulous
SHE WOULD BE GREAT TO PLAY MARIA IN THE WEST SIDE STORY REMAKE OHMYGOD
Great!!!!!
THATS THE HIGH SCHOOL ILL BE GOING TOO
Great!!
Excellent, much better than the new film.
wow sooooo astonishing wow i'm amazed
was the singing there voice?
She was good!
the performance was great, but i just feel bad that these actors were given such poor direction when it came to the accents. also... the makeup. even at the high school level, if you're going to cast people with light skin as the sharks, just keep their natural skin. it looks weird (and mildly offensive) when you try to use dark makeup. those are my only things, this was flawless otherwise! i wish they hadn't done that though, bc it just makes it hard to focus on the awesome vocals and performance with stuff like that. hope these actors are still performing, they're really good!
I love this very professional (can't believe it's a high school's) version of WSS. I'm not Puerto Rican, but I'm Mexican and I found nothing "weird" nor "mildly offensive" with their accents or with the use of makeup on a musical theatrical representation (OMG! imagine that!) This version of María with Eliza Masewicz it's adorable and perfect. I'm sure Leonard Bernstein would love this María.
they didn't darken their skin ???
Their accents are really good
can you upload riff and tony scene?
The girl in the pink dress is so beautiful!!
it's my dream to play maria :(((
Those are students? I don’t believe that! I should gladly pay to see a production of that quality.
1:08 the song properly starts xoxo
That was so good for a high school taking out the racism🙈
Great talents. Lovely. Ignore the moaners
I wish I could be in this number or the America number. But I’m not Puerto Rican
4:07 Sounds like Tony is already dying! :P
Fu la la la la
MARIA
I feel pretty,
Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty and witty and bright,
And I pity
Any girl who isn't me tonight.
I feel charming,
Oh, so charming,
It's alarming how charming I feel,
And so pretty
That I hardly can believe I'm real.
See the pretty girl in that mirror there,
Who can that attractive girl be?
Such a pretty face,
Such a pretty dress,
Such a pretty smile,
Such a pretty me!
I feel stunning
And entrancing,
Feel like running
and dancing
For joy,
For I'm loved by a pretty wonderful boy!
ROSALIA, CONSUELO
Have you met my good friend Maria,
The craziest girl on the block?
You'll know her the minute you see her,
She's the one who is in an advanced state of shock.
She thinks she's in love.
She thinks she's in Spain.
She isn't in love,
She's merely insane.
It must be the heat
Or some rare disease,
Or too much to eat
Or maybe it's fleas.
Keep away from her-
Send for Chino!
This is not the Mar-
Ia we know!
Modest and pure,
Polite and refined,
Well-bred and mature,
And out of her mind!
MARIA
I feel pretty,
Oh, so pretty
That the city should give me its key.
A committee
Should be organized to honor me.
I feel dizzy,
I feel sunny,
I feel fizzy and funny and fine,
And so pretty,
Miss America can just resign.
See the pretty girl in that mirror there!
ROSALIA, CONSUELO
What mirror where?
MARIA
Who can that attractive girl be?
ROSALIA AND CONSUELO
Which? What? Where? Whom?
MARIA
Such a pretty face,
Such a pretty dress,
Such a pretty smile,
Such a pretty me!
ALL
I feel stunning
And entrancing,
Feel like running and dancing for joy,
For I'm loved
By a pretty wonderful boy!
At Stanford university they study ant's
This is a HIGH SCHOOL show???
did they just took the gay out
ohh, i see. thank you XD
The original is “bright” but the movie is “gay”
No
calm down they took out gay because everyone would take it the wrong way. bright means exactly the same thing
Mayah Johnson that's not why. The original stage/ broadway lyrics is "bright". They only changed the lyrics to "gay" for the movie.
it’s the original lyric
They changed the lyric for the movie because it originally took place during the day, while the Broadway version took place during the day, and gay rhymes with day
The didn't took out anything, those are the original lyrics from the musical.
I thought gay meant happy?
they are using spanish accent from europe!!!!
(As Little Richard) SHUT UP!
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA HATDIG
This a high-school performance? REALLY?
Is Maria wearing..... blackface?
I'm Mexican and I found nothing offensive in makeup like that. I feel sorry for the PC people that judge everything. Not everybody is trying to make this world a segmented and smaller place full of warnings and fear.
No, in theater you get one shade darker than your own so the lights don't wash you out. her makeup is hardly darker than her
The accents throw me off
she sings alot bettr than Natalie Wood
Actually the voice in that movie was not Natalie Wood, I read that she sang it but in the end her voice was replaced by that of a singer, which saddened Natalie.
and gayyyyyyyyyy not bright
Moe Halabi In the actual script, not that of the movie, it is actually bright
Moe Halabi They changed the timeline in the movie, so they needed a word to rhyme with today.
No no no and gayyyyyyyeee the movie say gayyyyyyyeee Maria say gayyyyyyyeee
In the movie they say gay, but in the original version it's bright.
@@moehalabi8437 this isn't the movie it's the play
Ant's index shows ants birthmark ant's wife's generations of ant's match people animals breeding books for you people God's plan every man has wife God's way
Anyone else cringing at their accents?
that's how it's supposed to be.
@@bunny-ie3td I mean their accents when they speak spanish, they're quite cringey...
@@Mariia.Cascales they sound fine.
Bullshit "timeline change" - they took gay out because they're PC.
i've never hear of any "pc" person complain about the word gay
They're in brown face. I highly doubt their PC status
was a but peeved they ran scared...still cant take the performance away
The original lyric is "bright" rhyming with "tonight". They changed it to "gay" (rhyming with "gay") to match the setting in the movie.
@@Theye101499 none of them are in brown face ??
they lack emotions
I see no difference to a Broadway production. So good!
