  • Today, I'm gonna try to recap Tony Award winning Broadway Musicals in under 2 minutes. Wish me luck*. I'm gonna need it........ *or "break a leg" idc
    🌻🌻 OPEN ME 🌻🌻
    HEY THEATRE FRIENDS! I have officially gone stir crazy and roped my lovely mother into yet another one of my insane activities: Attempting to Recap Tony Award winning #Broadway #Musicals in under 2 Minutes. For an added bit of fun, my mom chose all the musicals so I had NO idea which shows I was going to try explaining.
    QOTD: Try to explain a Broadway musical in 5 sentences or less in the comments below!
    This video was born out of an odd request that I see pretty frequently: explain the plot of [insert title here] musical. Like, literally just be a human wikipedia, save them a google, and just tell them what the show is about. And the WORST PART- is that I do that a lot in real life and i absolutely love it.
    I love introducing people to musicals, and because of q*arant*ne I’ve got this constant weird, wired 8th grade sleepover energy. So let’s combine the two (even though I think that’s basically what my entire channel is built on….) & recap musicals in 2 minutes or less. The catch- I don’t know which musicals I’m going to be summarizing. I am terrified. I'm thrilled. Let's get started.

    So there’s a group of seven friends living in the 1980s aids epidemic (Angel, Mark, Maureen, roger, Mimi, Joanne, Collins). Collins and Angel fall in love, maureen and Joanne fall in and out of love, Mimi and roger fall in love, and Mark is a single Pringle not so ready to mingle.four of them have aids and angel dies from it in a really, REALLY weird song. Then Mimi dies but she comes back to life because of dead angel. Then they all watch a movie that mark made.

    Six:
    King Henry of England married six women before passing away, giving birth to the children’s rhyme ‘divorced beheaded died, divorced beheaded survived. They open with the six women singing about how they are only known by their husband. They begin arguing over who had it worse with Henry. We learn about each of the womens stories as each women sings their own song about their tales of woe (and one of the sings two). Finally, they end the show with a song called six, where they talk about what their lives could have been if they had been born in modern times or had a chance at success as single women.

Diana has Bipolar Depression with Manic Episodes and she has been imaging Gabe this whole time because he died when he was an infant. Diana attempts to commit suicide and goes under some electrical therapy treatment thing and loses her memory. Diana gets her memory back and remembers what happened to her son and she leaves the family to live her life while Dan and Natalie do the same. Idk that was long. Btw this was Next to Normal

    Okay here’s Pippin:
    Pippin wants to do good stuff with his life, so the leading player (his inner conscience) convinces him to go to war with his dad (aka the king) Charlemagne and his half brother Lewis, where Pippin discovers his hatred for killing others. His grandmother (Berthe) tells him to go out and get a wife, and he finds himself in an *interesting* situation with a lot of women. Pippin then finds out his dad has basically been on a massive killing spree and gets MAD, and so Fastrada (Charlemagne’s wife),seeing an opportunity, manipulates Pippin into killing the king, all so her darling son Lewis can move up the line of succession, and so eventually, Pippin kills his dad and becomes the new king. Charlemagne is bought back to life at the start of act 2 as Pippin finds being king too stressful, this being all before Pippin meets a widow called Catherine , and they fall in love. Pippin is angry at himself now living an ordinary life, so the leading player tells Pippin to kill himself because he is ‘extra-ordinary’ and as Pippin refuses, the leading player prays their eyes on Catherine’s son Theo, with the leading player now becoming his inner conscience, starting the loop of the whole story to begin.
    That made no sense but hey, the plot of Pippin never made any sense to begin with.

Ginny is “racist” and Everyone has a crush on a Zac Efron Poster. Voldemort is in denial about leaving Quirell in prison and Draco and Ron both love hermione.

      Ghost Quartet oh boy this is gonna be impossible: Pearl and Rose are connected across lifetimes. Rose asks a Bear to murder Pearl because Pearl started going out with the Astronomer, a man Rose used to love (who also betrayed Rose.) In return, the Bear asks for "one pot of honey, one piece of stardust, one secret baptism, and a photo of a ghost," and Rose attempts to collect these items as many different people throughout many lives. By the "end" (whatever that means for a story that is continuously moving in circles) it turns out the bear just wanted the honey and has no intention of killing anyone, and Pearl dies in various ways in different timelines, including sometimes at Rose's hand, and sometimes because of the actions of "The Pusher" who is a human and an alternate life version of the Bear. Versions of the Astronomer and Rose plan to have kids, two sisters, who very well might be the original Pearl and Rose, restarting the cycle.
      Some run on sentences there and quite possibly incomprehensible (Ghost Quartet is pretty incomprehensible even with many paragraphs) but I tried

Veronica and hot guy kill one of the three hot girls and write a suicide note so they don't get blamed. Then two football jerks are jerky so Veronica and hot guy shoot them and leave another suicide note. Then hot guy is all like "blow up the school" Veronica is like "no!" and so hot guy blows himself up and veronica makes up with her friend that I should have mentioned earlier.
    That went horribly.

    Be more chill: The loser of the school, Jeremy, has a huge crush on this girl everyone likes, Christine, so signs up for the school play with her. He then, finds out about a pill, from this guy named Rich, that helps him become popular. So Jeremy takes the pill and leaves behind his other loser friend, Michal, to attract Christine. Rich goes crazy because of the pill, which leads Jeremy to figure out the pill is trying to take over the world. Finally, Michal comes in and saves the day, because he never gave up on Jeremy (and we stan Michal), and Christine agrees to go on a date with Jeremy.

    Hadestown:
    1. A young man named Orpheus works for Hermes, one day he meets a hungry young girl named Eurydice, and they fall in love.
    2. Orpheus is a musician and is writing a song to make spring come again because Hades is forcing his wife Persephone, the goddess of flowers, to spend less than half a year on earth.
    3. Hades comes to get Persephone, and in the process he meets Eurydice and convinces her to sign a contract to spend the rest of eternity in Hadestown.
    4. Orpheus finds out, and with the help of Hermes, he journeys down to Hadestown for Eurydice.
    5. Hades is reminded of the flame he once held for Persephone and decides to make Orpheus a deal, he can go make with Eurydice, however he must walk in front and Eurydice must follow, and if he looks back, Eurydice must go back to Hadestown.

He gets sorta involved with Kate Monster but sleeps with a girl whose last name is literally "The Sl*t" and Kate is very sad. She wants to open a school for monsters and Princeton tries to get her to forgive him by collecting money for her to do so. An other Monster named Trekky, who is addicted to p*rn, gives him money for her. At the end, everyone is happy and Princeton decides to write a Musical about what happened.

    There’s a guy named Paul in a town called Hatchet field, one night a meteor hits the towns theatre during the night. This causes all of hatchet field, Paul’s colleagues and barista crush (played by the amazing Lauren Lopez) to only be able to communicate through singing if infected, the entire town turns into a musical. Paul and his friends run away from the people singing, slowly getting picked off, one by one until it’s just Paul and Emma, his barista crush. Paul must go and try and save the town, refusing to sing as he hates musicals but is (possibly?) infected, sacrificing himself to save the town. Emma is the only surviver but then Paul appears, singing, OH NO-
