"Seems to me like what we're doing here is communicating cognitive dissonance using musical dissonance." - The actor playing the Children's Entertainer for the production I was in
Friend: So I have to go to the orthodontist today." Me: (in fake British accent) "Oh my good lord, what about the Biannual International Amateur Salsa and Ballroom Dancing Championships?!" Friend: *Stares* *Backs away slowly*
@@anamay7988 there's actually only one difference in the two! mrs wormwood says gas in the broadway version while in the original version she says wind instead
I've listened to this over and over again. I'm currently in my local Community theaters production of Matilda. And I am the Doctor and Sergei as well as ensemble in other dance numbers
Am I the only one concerned about the mom telling her VERY young child that she has to cut down on the cream? that’s how eating disorders start, and that girl is like six years old
I mean, when you’re a child you’re not really supposed to eat unhealthy foods that much? It bites back when puberty comes and a kid can get eating disorders BY not being restrained when it comes to food anyway.
I agree, I think there’s a better way to stop a child from becoming obese from junk food and sweets which is introducing healthy foods and putting a limit to how much unhealthy foods they eat in a day without shaming them
My community theatre(Theatre at Latitude 58) is doing this play and at rehearsals I always die laughing when Mr Wormwood says "Wheres his thingie?!" 😂😂😂
I’ll be auditioning for my high school production of Matilda in a few months. I’m hoping for the part of Matilda but any role would be an honor to play.
I currently got auditions for Matilda at a theater that I love in a week and I’m hoping for the role of Lavender. I’m gonna do “My House” but I wanna practice her section in Miracle in case I need to show what I can do with her. I got a bit of practice on the musical since my middle school was doing it until COVID shut it down 2 weeks before performance time. I was a different role but the show was two school years ago.
This version of miracle is superior to the movie version 100% I'll die on that hill. I like the stage version of this song better because it showed the kids (older from like 6 to 11 years old I believe) to be Bratty and the Parents to be extremely entitled And here out comes Matilda who comes from a neglectful and awful household to contrast the fact these kids and parents really don't realize how privilaged and loving they are as families and thus that unfairness of the kids getting spoiled to death further rubs it in Matildas face who doesn't get that.The movie version is more tame and looses the sarcastic edge and irony of the stage version ESPECIALLY what the Birthday Party guy says at the beginning 😂
I enjoyed the Netflix adaptation which was my how I was introduced to the Matilda Musical- but the vocals don't compare to the Broadway cast's recording.
Oh the musical is based on the book :D miracle is based on a monologue dahl said in the begging of the book on how parents treat there kids and tell there kids that there special when really there not that much
My mummy says I'm a miracle. My daddy says I'm his special little guy. I am a princess, And I am a prince. Mum says I'm an angel sent down from the sky. My daddy says I'm his special little soldier. No one is as handsome, strong as me. It's true he indulges my tendency to bulge, But I'm his little soldier! Hop, 2-4-3! [Chorus:] My mummy says I'm a miracle. One look at my face, and it's plain to see. Ever since the day doc chopped the umbilical cord, It's been clear there's no peer for a miracle like me! My daddy says I'm his special little soldier. No one is as bold or tough as me. Has my daddy told you, One day when I'm older, I can be a soldier, And shoot you in the face? One can hardly move for beauty and brilliance these days. It seems that there are millions of these one-in-a-millions these days. Special-ness seems de rigueur. Above average is average - go figure. Is it is some modern miracle of calculus, That such frequent miracles don't render each one un-miraculous? [Repeat Chorus] My mummy says I'm a precious barrelina. She has never seen a prettier barrelina. She says if I'm keen, I have to cut down on the cream, But I'm a barrelina, SO GIVE ME MORE CAKE! Take another picture of our angel in that costume that I made. The role of tree has never been portrayed with such convincing sway. That's right, honey, look at mummy! Don't put honey on your brother. Smile for mummy; smile for mother! I think she blinked. Well, take another! Have you seen his school report? He got a 'C' on his report! What?! We'll have to change his school. That teacher's clearly falling short. She's just delightful. So precarious and insightful. Might she be a little brighter than the norm? I know to boys it's frightful form! (Take another!) My mummy says I'm a miracle. (She looks lovely in this light.) One look at my face, and it's plain to see. (Honey... Honey...) Ever since the day doc chopped the umbilical cord, (Don't put honey on your brother.) It's been clear there's no peer for a miracle like me! My mummy says I'm a miracle. That I'm as tiny and as shiny as a mirror ball. You can be all cynical, but it's a truth empirical. There's never been a miracle, a miracle, a miracle as me! [Interlude] Every life I bring into this world restores my faith in humankind. Each new-born life, a canvas yet unpainted... This still unbroken skin... This uncorrupted mind... [Bridge:] Every life is unbelievably unlikely. The chances of existence, almost infinitely small. The most common thing in life is life, And yet every single life bearing new life is a miracle! Miracle! [Interlude] Oh, my undercarriage doesn't feel quite normal. My skin looks just revolting in this foul fluorescent light, And this gown is nothing like the semi-formal, semi-Spanish gown I should be wearing in the semi-finals tonight. I should be dancing the tarantella - Cui buon fare Italiano. [Italian: With good Italian manner] Not dressed in hospital cotton, With a smarting front bottom, And this horrible - (Miracle!) Smelly little - (Miracle!) Weakly little bowl of fat! (What the hell was that?) Would someone give this thing a bottle? Or swap it for a later model! Why do bad things always happen to good people? Fine, upstanding citizens like you and me? Why, when we've done nothing wrong, Should this disaster come along? This horrible, weird-looking, Hairy little stinky feet... With no sign of a winky-dink at all! Miracle! Miracle! She's a miracle! A Miracle! Every life's a miracle! The most beautiful miracle I have ever seen! I can't find his frank & beans! [Repeat Bridge] [Repeat Chorus] My mummy says I'm a lousy little worm. My daddy says I'm a bore. My mummy says I'm a jumped-up little germ, That kids like me should be against the law. My daddy says I should learn to shut my pie hole. No one likes a smart-mouthed girl like me. Mum says I'm a good case for population control. Dad says I should watch more TV.
@@depolignacs its because the songs talking about how all life is valuable and babies lives are important so it can easily be interpreted as pro-life and most leftists are pro-choice
