NSDA 2019 Humorous Interpretation National Champion: "Kicking and Screaming" 

His snaps are so clean. Like it’s unreal

before finals CONOR SHERRY TOOK 29/34 one's. HE TOOK 29 freaking ones. Picket fenced both Octos, a quarter and SEMI FINAL!!! I think he had the best scores I have ever seen at NSDA in HI.

Speech and Debate are hands down one of the most important and underrepresented classes for young students to take around the world. More adults should also practice these skills to more effectively progress society. Incredible execution, thank you for this share! :)

the ending got me crying in the club when he won. so talented and well deserved

That eye thing though...

You know, I looked at those final postings and out of 15 judges only two gave him firsts. This absolutely astonished me, as far as physicality I believe Conor Sherry is the best Humorist ever in the NSDA. Sure he may not be the funniest but god damn he was head and shoulders above every single other person in that final round, You can obviously tell he has dance experience he moves lwith the grace of a professional ballerina on that stage, absolutely magnificent. Bad final round judges (Good thing every round before that he was taking those ones!)

This is incredibly well performed! The transitions are beautiful and clear, the characterization is perfect, and distinct, as well as having amazing muscle control and perfect voices. Well done!

I got the honor of being able to watch this performance live! My first year going to nationals, and oh my gravy! You're piece was amazing! Well deserved win, congrats!

After watching him in semis, it was obvious he was taking 1st!

He's the reason i got into humorous interpretation, I never thought that I would be a speech kid, since I was more into debate and have done public forum for 3 years, i didn't like informative, oo, and i hated doing impromptu, after watching his Humorous, i tried it out, and i love it! it's one of my favorite events, and I really want to normalize girls doing humorous, since i usually never see girls doing it. Thanks Conor!😊

Who else is new to speech and debate and is terrified of humorous interpretation?

wow talk about a rush of nostalgia. I got super close to that final's stage my senior year (2013). I was so passionate about speech and the community of people I met through it. Haven't really even thought about it in a few years until i stumbled upon these finals videos!!

His reaction was so sweet...

An absolute legend.

WOOOO, CONGRATULATIONS! Legit, I would never have the confidence or even the memory to do something even close to what that was, it was awesome, woohoo

oh my gosh this was so freaking funny haha and sww his reaction was so sweet

Absolute legend!

this warmed my heart

I’m a dancer, and I can say that he is actually good at dancing. ;P

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST HI IVE EVER SEEN

Niceeeeeeeeeeee job! I really look forward seeing your performances.

I’ve been doing speech since 6th grade (currently a sophomore in high school) and this year I’m doing HI and duo and this makes me so excited for this seasonnnn!!! I’m SO ready to give it my all and try to get all the way up there😊

You did great!! ❤️

best performance ever!!!

Great job!

omg great job. you deserve it

Omg I remember seeing this live when I went for njsda. I miss it so much and I'm so sad we can't do it cus of covid.. doing the online njsda/nsda just doesn't feel the same yk. I only went once in 6th grade (njsda 2019) and I was in quarter finals for prose and semi finals for poetry and its one of the most fun unforgettable memories I have.

I single handedly probably can account for half of the views of this video.

This is so impressive

And now I regret doing debate

I did S&D back in freshman year but ended up dropping bc of schedule overlaps, and whenever I watch vids like these, I really wish I stuck to it and now I just feel regret 😭😭 (it’s senior year so it’s a bit late to join again :’))

He's like Jim Carrey's son !!

I forget the name but yeah it's from a movie

How do I get into NSDA? I wanna do it so badly

Which high school did this kid go to in Texas?

This from the movie

not the chicka-errr at the start lmao. my whole team makes fun of that all the time

Ok but those were some really good chaîné turns

FUCKING HILAAAAARIOUSSSSSS

Out of context, I have no idea what is going on

he looks like sheldon

HAHAHAHAHHAA

very comedy buoy

He’s amazing but theres no way he isn’t gay I love it

The lack of speech kids in this comment section is frustrating me

Well hellos it's Spider kid on roblox uhh someone was a faker saying it you let me kno thx

I hate having to do this assignment

Is this interpretation based on the film? I thought it had to be a performance interpretation based on a work of literature, not a performance based on a pre-existing performance. I'm not trying to criticize, it was an excellent performance, but I don't understand how it qualifies as literary.

Umm tic tok

I’m here from tik tok and I don’t know what to think BAHAHAHAHAHA💀😅😌😅💀😅😌

That one weird band kid is dis guy

Humorous?

Wtf

He's gonna ruin his voice...
