if its a short musical its okay.



If its something you want on broadway it needs alotta work.



Its better you hear peoples views first so it was smart to ask on here.



What i say isn't supposed to be mean just what ithink aboutt it.



first of all i personally don't like the second scene it sounds too fake



The teacher sounds very fake and the dancing secnee really amateurishh. Also the tv guy should be not the boaring video but the exciting video hes trying to talk to his aduience.



You should really add more to the brad and baily thing and make dj more mean and sluty. She took her boyfriend so shes not just scartastic she should be a mean whore.



you should also add on to the girl it the conner. Shes just left out of everthing. if its a a drama kinda thing that girl should be picked on and she ends up killing someone in the end. i think how she should go is that she is always left out and always sad and people pick on her for no reason. Just never let her seem like she has anger make her seem sad. Let her get caught too. Horror plays where they don't get caught are mostly dumb. That can add up susspence. Add more to it and re-post it. If you want then i could telll you more

Most of my lifestyles has been in Musical Theater. My youngest daughter on the second, is in "Chorus Line". We party each 12 months, regardless of wherein we're, and appear on the Tony's in combination. There is not anything adore it. Funny Girl, Mame, Hello Dolly, Joseph and the Technicol Dreamcoat, Les Miserable - one would move on and on. When we went to peer Mama Mia, the film, it was once a extraordinary revel in. For the primary time in a film Theatre the complete viewers took facet. They stood up and sang, danced and we had been all a facet of the film. Music, personally, is without doubt one of the benefits which have been bestowed on Human Beings. My lifestyles might no longer be what it's, or has been, if it was once no longer for track and Musical Theatre, on movie or on level.
