Phillipa Soo on Forgetting Lines During Performance | Juilliard Snapshot 

God, I can't imagine performing Burn (I assume it was Burn, seeing as she said she was alone onstage) and forgetting your lines to one of the most powerful songs in the play. I'm cringing for Phillipa.

I was at that performance!

I assume she's talking about Burn....being an emotional song, I wouldn't pretend to be too chocked up to speak...but inwardly panicking and search my brain for a clue.

I got to see Hamilton and the Eliza forgot the lyric "Angelica tell this man John Adams spends the summer with his family" but she handled like a pro! It was "Angelica tell my husband **weird mumbling while pretending to whisper**" such a good show

Let's all just take a moment to admire Pippa's beauty

PIPPA IS A GEM

I could have helped her. I know ALL the words to her songs.

I don't think she should be embarrassed at all! It happens! lol And, if you think about it there are usually 2 kinds of people in the audience: those who love it and know every word and those who have never seen or heard it before and want the experience. The people who have never seen/heard it would never even know she messed up and the people who know every word to the whole play love her and would never judge or make fun of her for goofing up :D

Phillips: I’m in a show called Hamilton Me: I may have heard of it

If Pippa forgot a line during Burn I would totally just start singing the lyrics and lets home the crowd helps too.

When she forgot her lines her HEART WENT BOOM

Pippa's training taught her so well. It is my dream to go to Julliard like she did because it is so evident in her professionalism and skill that she had outstanding training! Rock on Pippa!

YOU'LL SLEEP IN YOUR RIGHTS TO YOUR MEMORIES FORFEIT THE PLACE IN MY HEART YOU' FORFEIT YOUR PLACE IN OUR OFFICE WITH ONLY THE MINE OF WHEN YOU WERE BUUUURNNNEEDDD I hope that you... Bed~ Nailed it!

Ugh mom!! What a trooper, still going on with the song. I would've cried. Also her laugh and smile are two of the best things in the universe

Remember, Lin said that when you forget a line on stage... It's a rewrite! xD

She's an angel

"We have glitches like every other human." Not gonna lie, that sounds more like something a robot would say.

She reminds me of Dee Dee Magno Hall. Nonetheless, Phillipa is an amazing singer!!

I sang burn at my talent show recently and missed a note that I can get and felt terrible about it but this made me feel a lot better :)

“The show that I’m in now is called Hamilton”- aw, Pippa, you still think someone hasn’t heard of it! We all know what it is lol

Pippa always makes me smile no matter what

Guess you could say her memory BURNed

Showing this to my drama teacher. Seriously! WE CANT ALL BE PERFECT.

The most beautiful women

She is amazing

She is such a gift to us all! So lovely!

I want to be in the room when that happened

Its the worst. But you can either let it bother you, or laugh it off. And Im glad she chose to laugh.

The show I’m in is called.. Hamilton. WHO DOSENT KNOW THAT! ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR PEOPLE

what a bean

I’ve been a performer my whole life and luckily I’ve been one that rarely makes mistakes on stage but obviously I’ve made a few in my time! Those moments are hard to believe and hard to swallow but everybody has them and we are never defined by those mistakes. In my eyes, Phillipa will always be a gracious, consistent, outstanding performer before she’s a mistake-maker❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

She is so precious, someone need to protect her

ok so i saw hamilton last month (january 9th) with my mom and during the first song eliza forgot her line and instead of “when he was ten his father split full of it debt ridden” she said “debt ridden-“ and was able to bounce back. i thought the performance was amazing and my mom didn’t notice so it was fine

SHE'S VERY CUTE ;-; I would say "DON'T WORRY MY BABY ELIZA YOU ARE DOING GREAT"

I wonder if the original cast realize the magnitude of Hamilton being on Disney+ is going to have on that Play, the Theatre and their respective careers. It brings this Genius ( not only Lin's writing but their brilliant performances ) to a whole new audience. Soo's performance of Eliza is nothing short of brilliance. The cast was so amazing! They gave a true gift to the world and brought theatre, hip hop and history to a whole new audience to appreciate. Thank you

I would be honored to watch her forget lines oh my god

0:35 I guess you could say she was... helpless? **Badum tsssssssss**

My dream school and one of my favorite people in the world 😍

poor bb

what a queen

Anyone else getting this in their recommended 4 years later?

I didn't know that we could refer to Phillipa as Pippa and now my day's better

SHES SO PRETTY OMFJFHSJAK

i love how easily she just let it go

At that moment she realised she was turely *HELPLESS*

I feel so bad!!

Ella es un ángel (Q [] Q)

why did this video get recommended to me even though it’s been like four years

I think that the glitches are what makes theatre so good because unlike movies u get to see a bit of the actors personality in how they react to it and I can be rlly funny

💜

I didn't know what her speaking voice sounded like until now help

I know what it feels like i do acting but of course not as bad What it feels like is everyone is looking at you your mind is blank the other cast member stare at you it feels like time freezes

How didn’t I now Pippa went to Julliard? That’s messed me up so hard I know people who go to the same school Phillipa Soo went to wh a t

Ironically ive never forgotten a line, but there was one time that I said the same line almost three times in a monologue. The second time I said it I realized it but J couldn’t figure out why. Then when I was about to loop again I had to stop myself. Totally throws you off and I just hope no one in the audience noticed anything fishy haha

What is it with this goddamn video i cant stop watching it

It’s so funny how she refers to Hamilton as “this show that I’m in called Hamilton” as if it’s just this small production that you probably don’t know about. This was before the show took off and little did she know that soon it would be one of the most well known musicals

Was she talking about burn?

Omg that poor girl

Pippa is amazing

Me if im Pipa Me: I saved every letter you wro write me Crowd:... Me:?????? Me:*thinks* -stares at the crowd- o think i was going to say Burn??????

The song she forgot the lyrics to was Burn

When she sadi "I..." anyone else thought "... wanna be in the room where it happens"?

"It just happens," She Says... "It's fine," she says...

Of course it probably helps if up to that point you have left audiences weeping and awestruck with your stunning performance in the most popular broadway show in modern times, not to mention being incredibly beautiful and talented. Just saying that may take some of the sting away.

Alexander Hamilton you are waiting in the field for troops. If we join us together you can turn the right tide now Oh, Aaron Burr You will yield for soldiers I have If we surrender by early right, they'll manage to get this light THE SAME WILL NEVER BE THE WORLD...ALEXANDEEEER Nailed it.

*she's pretty*

omggg burnnn

Was she talking about burn!

Hi! May I ask what song is used in the outro of this video?

Someone in one of the comments who's been to this show when she goofed up said she sang lines from the second verse earlier in the first verse and then stopped, then continued. So knowing Burn is her only solo song this is what would've happened. She must've sang "Do you know what Angelica said" but instead of singing it from the first verse she sang it from the second one, and when she reached "how they perceived you" the music wouldn't have stopped like she expected and she would've realized. But there's a pause there anyway, so she can continue with "I'm rereading the letters you wrote to me" as if nothing happened, so it would be a minor mistake that people would only notice if they knew the lyrics well.

i wanna see this

were all human here

Original Eliza??????

STOP BEING SO CUTE

"The show that I'm in right now is called Hamilton"

Pippa wrote her way out!

This reminds me of when I was altar serving at church and I just glitched and came up to give something to the priest waaaay too early--I was alone too.

she was H E L P L E S S

We glitch! Ha! I’m gonna start saying that!

Omg I just watch that 2 sec ago

ELIZAAAAA *and veggie*

ELIZA NO

“Doing a show 300 times, you’ll never forget a line” On the contrary, you are more likely to forget a line with 300 shows, compared to 20

I know I'm a little late and all.. but why do people call her pippa? isnt it Phillipa? is that a nickname?

i’m getting sECOND HAND EMBARRASSMENT
