[00:00:00] What the hell are musicals? [00:00:01] It appears to be a play where the dialog stops and the plot is conveyed through song [00:00:07] Through song? [00:00:08] Yes [00:00:09] Wait, wait, wait, so an actor is saying his lines and then out of nowhere he just starts singing? [00:00:15] Yes [00:00:16] Well that is the— [00:00:18] Stupidest thing that I have ever heard [00:00:21] You're doing a play, got something to say [00:00:24] So you sing it? It's absurd [00:00:26] Who on Earth is going to sit there [00:00:29] While an actor breaks into song? [00:00:33] What possible thought could the audience think [00:00:37] Other than "this is horribly wrong?" [00:00:42] Remarkably, they won't think that [00:00:45] (Seriously? Why not?) [00:00:47] Because— [00:00:48] It's... a... musical [00:00:52] A musical [00:00:54] And nothing's as amazing as a [00:00:56] Musical [00:00:58] With song and dance [00:01:00] And sweet romance [00:01:02] And happy endings happening [00:01:04] By happenstance [00:01:06] Bright lights, stage fights [00:01:08] And a dazzling chorus [00:01:09] You wanna be great, then you gotta create [00:01:11] A musical [00:01:13] I don't know, I find it hard to believe people would actually pay to see something like this [00:01:17] Let's just say it's a Saturday night [00:01:19] And you wanna go out on the town [00:01:21] Got a lady to flatter who might [00:01:23] Give it up if you don't let her down [00:01:25] You could go see a tragedy [00:01:26] But that wouldn't be very fun [00:01:28] Or a play from Greek mythology [00:01:30] See a mother have sex with her son [00:01:32] You could go see a drama [00:01:35] With all of that trauma and pain [00:01:39] Or go see something more relaxing [00:01:43] And less taxing on the brain [00:01:49] Go... see... a... musical [00:01:54] A musical [00:01:56] A poppy piece releasing all your [00:01:58] Blues-icals [00:02:00] Where crooners croon (Ahh) [00:02:02] A catchy tune [00:02:04] And limber-legged ladies thrill you [00:02:06] Till you swoon [00:02:07] Ooh's, ahh's, big applause [00:02:09] And a standing ovation [00:02:11] The future is bright if you could just write [00:02:13] A musical [00:02:15] Some make you happy [00:02:17] Some make you sad [00:02:19] Some are quite big [00:02:20] Some quite small [00:02:22] Some are too long [00:02:24] Some are just plays with song (Ahh) [00:02:26] Some musicals have [00:02:28] No talking at all [00:02:31] (No talking at all?) [00:02:32] That's right, there's no talking [00:02:37] All of the dialog is sung in a very dramatic fashion [00:02:44] (Um, really?) [00:02:45] Yes, really [00:02:47] (There's no talk—) [00:02:48] There's no talking [00:02:51] And they often stay on one note for a very long time [00:02:54] So that when they change to a different note,...you notice [00:03:01] And it's supposed to create a dramatic effect [00:03:03] But mostly you just sit there asking yourself, "why aren't they talking?" [00:03:10] (Sounds miserable) [00:03:12] I believe it's pronounced "misérables" [00:03:19] (And people actually like this?) [00:03:21] No! They love it! And what's not to love? [00:03:24] It's such a delight, there's nothing quite like [00:03:26] A musical [00:03:28] Ooh! Another vision! I haven't even told you the best part yet! [00:03:32] Feel that fascinating rhythm [00:03:35] Move into your feet [00:03:37] (Uh, what is that?) [00:03:40] Feel your a** gyrating [00:03:42] To that titillating beat [00:03:44] (Ooh, are you OK?) [00:03:47] You slap your lap [00:03:49] Then finger-snap [00:03:51] That's when you know it's time to tap [00:03:56] (What the hell are you doing now?) [00:03:58] It's called a dance break [00:03:59] Apparently this happens in musicals as well [00:04:02] People on stage just burst into spontaneous dance [00:04:06] (Why? Does it advance the plot?) [00:04:07] No [00:04:08] (Advance character?) [00:04:09] Not necessarily [00:04:10] (Then why do it?) [00:04:12] Because it's entertaining [00:04:14] 5-6-7-8! [00:04:17] Dance Break [00:04:49] Another vision! [00:04:51] It's a musical What do you talk? What do you talk? 404
