Xanadu Medley Actualized

Oh dear.

This Xanadu medley was conceived, produced, and seamlessly executed by the students of Lafayette Jefferson High School, a learning institution that's somewhere not in California. Anyway, be sure to check out the finale, which culminates in a smoke machine spectacular!

Is this representative of every day high school talent things or is this a high school on Palm Beach or some other billionaire island? Not bad .... I'd prefer to see the musical in New York again though.

 

It's a school in Indiana, and that was a "show choir."

 

Hmmm... tone deaf.

 

Jeez. They were good for high schoolers. When I was in high school we thought that our choir was pretty good when we all remembered to wear our stupid tomato red choir dresses.

 

My husband used to get paid to judge this stuff. I tagged along for a few competitions and it's strangely entertaining. It's mainly a midwestern thing. Just type in "showchoir" on youtube for some mindblowingly cheesy choreography with lots of hairspray and glitter and jazz hands.

 

Generati, sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion!

 

Wow two pop-culture occurrences of Xanadu within 24 hours. On last night's episode of Lost, the character's Hurley and Sawyer watched it.

May I reiterate my earlier tone deaf?

God I wish Simon were here.

 

No wonder kids use drugs.

 

Sheer magic. I'm dying to find out how the teacher sold it to the kids: "Listen, kids, so there's the movie called Xanadu..."

 

Without roller skates it's just a pale mockery.

 

I saw this last night on the front row in NYC. It was hysterical....

 

You have no idea how cheated about my own high school education this makes me feel. Ralph Nader must address this imbalance in the next debates.
