I love how at 3:45 the coreography is showing how diana maybe finally better so she's at a high point, while natalie, through drug use is at a low point, but they are feeling the same feelings
In Holland they did this scene with synchronising dance of mother and daughter. It looked really powerfull seeing the resemblence in movement between mother and daughter.
It's actually up on RU-vid. If you just search "Feeling Electric Anthony Rapp" or "Feeling Electric Annaleigh Ashford" you should find it. :) It's a great song, and you can see some of the lyrics pop up in other songs in the final show! :)
@@1YellowHippo thankyou sm for the answer!! If the tags are still there, do you know the label/brand? How COOL would it be if it was the EXACT same top?? Like if Jennifer donated it and you ended up buying it? (All I want in life is to one day play Natalie) 🤭
@LSprague42 the pianist is the conductor. There is a small camera on the piano; each musician has a small video monitor attached to their music stand. It's all very sneaky, but incredibly tight. :)
But didn't you know what the show was about before you saw it? I think the point is to accurately portray bipolar disorder. I'm really sorry it was hard for you to watch, and thought it was a waste of money, but I think it's much better than seeing it completely misrepresented, no? :)
I saw this show last month with Marin Mazzie as Diana and she was fantastic - but when N2N comes to San Francisco, Alice Ripley is going to play Diana!!! I'm so excited!!!!
@Kdelossantos2 I agree i saw her in the beginning and on tour and her voice seemed so strained and i didn't understand a word of her, even thought she was phenomenal still. She is still my favorite actress (-:
@thoseuveknown The same thing happened when I saw the musical with my dad! He wouldn't believe that she could sing well... Finally I showed him some online stuff, so he believed me :D
Does anybody have a full recording of the whole play that I could download. I love this play, but I don't live in New York, so there was no way for me to ever see it! :(
@mrsuke Her voice was destroyed by her Broadway run and I don't think she took enough time off between broadway and the tour. I saw her at the beginning of the Broadway run and at the end and the difference was huge.
I'm actually surprised.... The Alliance Theatre in Atlanta did it better. Love the song though, these voices are incredible - just a bit of a letdown after having a comparison.
@suitguy63 Yes I saw it too, I loved the choreography. And that made the scene really powerful! en ik ga nu even nederlands praten want het zal in het engels vast niet leesbaar zijn. Het licht in die scene vond ik ook prachtig, met zo'n soort regenboogachtige gloed op de achtergrond.
@FuckedUpIsPerfect can u please post the whole show, like, "part 1" and all? i saw this show last week and it was terrific, and i really really want to see it!!! please!

@FuckedUpIsPerfect I have a "Feeling Electric" album on my phone that marvels his perfection especially. :3 Than god for RU-vid and audio ripping, right?
Can someone who has seen this live tell me, how is the pit set up for this? I see violin, cello, and a keyboard at 1:57 at 2:25 they're clearly in front of a piano. I don't think I'm seeing a conductor. This is wild, but tight and clearly awesome.
I saw Alice Ripley on tour this weekend, and her voice was very off. She was singing much lower than she normally does and her vibrato was all over the place. it was so sad, especially since it was my mom's first time hearing her sing and i really had to try and convince her that Alice is truly a great performer
Next To Normal wasn't what I expected it to be, It just took me back to when I was first diagnosed bipolar and to watch everything a person goes through with depression and the suicidal tendencies was just too much! I had to leave the play once intermission came, It was a waste of my money and my mother's too.
0:18 seconds in and I have it on pause. Maybe I shouldn't watch it. I want to see this play so bad and I like this song so much. I don't want to ruin it for me, but what if I don't see the play? UGH! This is annoying. I'll come back another day. In the mean time I'm going to torture myself with listening to "Wish I Were Here" and trying to imagine how the song would be executed in my head.
i have but all the ones ive found are either awful or blocked (like i know that there arent many good quality bootlegs of anything but like one of the ones i found had something blocking half the stage for the whole show)
oof im sorry about that. here's a bootleg i found: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Nrg6Ss0dm2M.html i havent watched it so im not sure if this production is good but the quality is pretty good. i hope this helps??
