University of Michigan Musical Theatre Majors. Choreographed by Dani Spieler, the class of Dance Workshop performs "Turkey Lurkey Time" from PROMISES, PROMISES.
The original Michael Bennet choreography featuring Donna McKechnie is still pretty hard to beat. And I agree with you, you can't do the "Jingle Bells" at the end without using the Bennet heads pops and arms. I think that the original sway back kicks are needed as well though to give the song its loose party feel too.
@Unplugged516 That's not even copying the original choreo. The only thing that this choreo has uncannily in common is the end flapping. Which is wonderful, and should be in every choreo of this song.
They only used the original Michael Bennet choreography (original Broadway, recreated in Camp at the end;;;Jingle Bells, Jinglee Bells, etc.) Their choreography is pretty good.
Have you actually seen both clips? Because if you had I don't see how you could possibly say this one is copied. Any similarities you see have to do with the fact that there are signature moves germane to the song, for example the head and arms at the end - that's done in most interpretations. It seemed pretty original to me and very well done.
Although the choreography was completely different than the original, this was still awesome! Much better than what the actual broadway people put together. This had better choreography and more talent than the stuff that they charge nearly 100 bucks to see. Good job to the cast and the Dana
Why not just copy them original Michael Bennett choreography from the 1969 Tony Awards, available on CZcams? Your lead won't compare in this number with the great, legendary Donna McKechnie, but that's true of the recent Broadway revival or other professional versions.
Stunning. I'm a 3rd year at GSA in England, we should be doing more of this stuff! You guys rocked.
i absolutely love that they use the version from Camp, and do the signature move at the end.
perfection.
The Choreography was original and pretty awesome, HOWEVER! the audio track used is from "Camp".

isn't part of that jerry mitchell's cheoreography from the movie camp?
hahaha leonard
it's no original thats for sure...instead it looked like you guys copied it from camp
The girl SQUEALING at 1:57 literally ruins it for me.
What a mess. Too many people. Didn't know where to look.
i agree that was a mess and these are Theatre majors looking like fools
this was good, but the choreography from the movie camp was a 1000x better
