In America, every child of immigrants has an assimilation story, but not all of them involve being actors in a student adaptation of the hit musical Frozen. In New York City's Chinatown, the elementary school theater club of PS 124 prepares to stage a production of Frozen Kids. As these Asian American students gear up and rehearse for their big musical production with nervous excitement, they also contend with cultural stereotypes, family expectations, post-graduation uncertainties and the pressures that come with being young and bi-cultural. Through rehearsals and time behind the scenes, the students unveil their dilemmas with honesty, humor and insight. CURTAIN UP! shares a kids-eye view of identity, culture and the heartbreaks that come with growing up.

 Highly Recommended "This joyful production works as both entertainment for adults and youthful audiences and potential discussion material about the role of arts in schools, diversity, inclusion, and family expectations."
 
 Educational Media Reviews Online (EMRO) | Brandon West, Social Sciences Librarian, State University of New York at Geneseo
 "There is plenty of depth to this whimsical documentary and it creates opportunities for discussion about the role of arts in education and disparities faced by marginalized communities. In addition to general viewing, the film would be useful in supporting the curriculum of education and diversity programs. These reasons make it a great addition to library collections."
 
 Asian CineVision
 “These kids aren’t shown to the viewers as 'others' or 'outliers,' they are shown as kids, who also happen to be Asian American ... For fellow Asian Americans, the film acts as a form of representation, for others an insight into the struggles that immigrants and minorities face every day ... Hui Tong and Kelly Ng build a documentary that manages to uplift an oft-forgotten group while also showing us that being a kid is complicated, even if it doesn’t always seem that way.”
 
 Buttered Popcorn Movies
 “Even in one of the strongest years for the documentary genre of all time, Curtain Up! stands out as one of the freshest and enjoyable documentaries of the year. Not only does the film have the fun and charisma to be one of the funniest films of the year, but the depth and nuance enhance the material, pushing the feature to the next level. This is an expertly crafted and brutally honest film that deserves to be seen by as many as possible.”
 
 Film Threat
 “The underlying message is the importance of the arts in education across the board ... A job like this takes patience, long hours, and not much of an impact on the old salary. The rewards, though, are priceless ... Remove the message of school funding of the arts and strict cultural expectations, and the joy of Curtain Up! is watching kids put on a musical. These students are here to have fun and couldn’t care less about the political and familial drama ...Tong and Ng weave together a fun documentary and puts the spotlight on a few of the kids. "
 
 South China Morning Post
 "The film Curtain Up! shows how they deal with being pulled in different directions by family and society, and how acting helps them overcome a certain cultural mindset."

 [crowd cheering]
 
 00:00:06.272 --> 00:00:11.277
 - [Audience Member] 124!
 
 00:00:16.182 --> 00:00:18.118
 - They\'re waving at us!
 
 00:00:22.088 --> 00:00:25.158
 - [Woman] Students from PS
 124 Theater Club in New York
 
 00:00:25.191 --> 00:00:26.326
 won National Honors
 
 00:00:26.359 --> 00:00:27.794
 and earned recognition
 
 00:00:27.827 --> 00:00:31.664
 at the 2019 Junior
 Theater Festival Atlanta.
 
 00:00:31.798 --> 00:00:34.534
 [cheering]
 
 00:00:39.539 --> 00:00:41.141
 - [Woman 2] You\'re
 the only Asian group,
 
 00:00:41.174 --> 00:00:42.809
 you\'re the youngest group,
 
 00:00:42.842 --> 00:00:45.311
 and the only group
 from New York.
 
 00:00:45.345 --> 00:00:47.647
 We were very special.
 
 00:00:47.747 --> 00:00:50.683
 [cheering]
 
 00:01:16.476 --> 00:01:17.710
 - Back in the old days,
 
 00:01:17.744 --> 00:01:18.244
 all this would happen,
 
 00:01:18.278 --> 00:01:21.581
 white, black, wall.
 
 00:01:21.614 --> 00:01:22.615
 Segregation!
 
 00:01:25.885 --> 00:01:27.754
 - We will be bridges.
 
 00:01:32.425 --> 00:01:34.661
 - [Mr. Olsen] Our group was
 one of the first schools
 
 00:01:34.694 --> 00:01:37.397
 to be invited to do a
 pilot of Frozen Kids,
 
 00:01:37.430 --> 00:01:39.299
 a 30 minute adaptation of Frozen
 
 00:01:39.332 --> 00:01:41.734
 for the elementary school age.
 
 00:01:42.669 --> 00:01:45.205
 [music]
 
 00:02:44.898 --> 00:02:46.666
 - I know a lot of
 you are looking at
 
 00:02:46.699 --> 00:02:48.268
 the script right now,
 
 00:02:48.301 --> 00:02:49.435
 right?
 
 00:02:49.469 --> 00:02:52.405
 And seeing which character
 you might wanna try out for.
 
 00:02:52.438 --> 00:02:55.742
 It\'s a great opportunity,
 we\'re doing Frozen Kids,
 
 00:02:55.775 --> 00:02:58.778
 and I can\'t wait to
 see what happens.
 
 00:02:59.979 --> 00:03:04.684
 - Can a boy be a girl\'s part
 and a girl\'s part be a boy?
 
 00:03:04.717 --> 00:03:05.552
 - [Boys] Please!
 
 00:03:05.585 --> 00:03:06.953
 - I wanna be Elsa.
 
 00:03:08.855 --> 00:03:09.522
 - [Boy] Good job.
 
 00:03:09.556 --> 00:03:11.558
 - Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, Hans,
 
 00:03:11.591 --> 00:03:15.762
 all those parts are
 going to be boy or girl.
 
 00:03:15.795 --> 00:03:18.431
 However, Olaf, we\'re discussing
 
 00:03:19.499 --> 00:03:21.334
 will probably be
 a gender neutral.
 
 00:03:21.367 --> 00:03:23.736
 Sven will be a gender neutral.
 
 00:03:25.672 --> 00:03:27.707
 - Listen to the
 whole song on your CD
 
 00:03:27.740 --> 00:03:28.908
 and then we\'ll tell
 you which parts
 
 00:03:28.942 --> 00:03:31.911
 that you\'re gonna be
 singing in front of us.
 
 00:03:31.945 --> 00:03:34.280
 For Elsa, let it go.
 
 00:03:34.314 --> 00:03:35.014
 - [Students] Yes!
 
 00:03:35.048 --> 00:03:35.882
 - Hans, who\'s Hans?
 
 00:03:35.915 --> 00:03:36.583
 What\'s Hans?
 
 00:03:36.616 --> 00:03:38.985
 - [Hannah] For Olaf, in summer.
 
 00:03:42.422 --> 00:03:43.723
 If you are auditioning
 for Kristoff...
 
 00:03:43.756 --> 00:03:44.591
 - That\'s me.
 
 00:03:44.624 --> 00:03:45.692
 - [Hannah] Page 23.
 
 00:03:45.725 --> 00:03:46.759
 - 23 to what?
 
 00:03:47.760 --> 00:03:48.428
 - [Hannah] But
 you\'re gonna start
 
 00:03:48.461 --> 00:03:49.662
 somewhere in the middle of 23.
 
 00:03:49.696 --> 00:03:50.797
 - Okay.
 
 00:03:50.830 --> 00:03:52.932
 I like everything about acting.
 
 00:03:52.966 --> 00:03:54.267
 You know how it happened?
 
 00:03:54.300 --> 00:03:58.271
 Third grade, I was
 in a spring show?
 
 00:03:58.671 --> 00:04:01.274
 Tiny\'s New Year\'s Show.
 
 00:04:01.307 --> 00:04:03.876
 What happened was, after that
 
 00:04:03.910 --> 00:04:05.845
 the teachers wanted me
 to go to theater club
 
 00:04:05.878 --> 00:04:08.548
 and mom said, \"No, you
 cannot go to theater club.
 
 00:04:08.581 --> 00:04:09.816
 \"You must do something else.\"
 
 00:04:09.849 --> 00:04:12.552
 And then my, Miss Han
 just kept on calling
 
 00:04:12.585 --> 00:04:13.753
 over and over again
 
 00:04:13.786 --> 00:04:16.422
 just so my mom can make
 me go to theater club.
 
 00:04:16.456 --> 00:04:18.891
 After going to theater club,
 this is where I am now.
 
 00:04:18.925 --> 00:04:22.262
 I like theater and my mom
 can\'t do anything about it.
 
 00:04:25.398 --> 00:04:27.800
 And I think the King
 is going to be Max.
 
 00:04:27.834 --> 00:04:29.802
 The Queen is going to be...
 
 00:04:29.836 --> 00:04:30.737
 - [Girl] Charlotte.
 
 00:04:30.770 --> 00:04:32.071
 - Charlotte, yeah.
 
 00:04:32.105 --> 00:04:34.374
 - That\'s a bad
 combination, William.
 
 00:04:34.407 --> 00:04:35.575
 - Who do you think
 Hans is gonna be?
 
 00:04:35.608 --> 00:04:37.810
 I think Hans is gonna be Lucas.
 
 00:04:50.690 --> 00:04:52.959
 - Ow.
 
 00:04:57.864 --> 00:04:58.864
 - Again.
 
 00:05:03.069 --> 00:05:04.937
 - I don\'t have a
 lot of confidence.
 
 00:05:04.971 --> 00:05:07.040
 I don\'t know why, actually,
 
 00:05:07.073 --> 00:05:11.110
 and I\'m very, how
 do you call it?
 
 00:05:11.144 --> 00:05:12.144
 Humble.
 
 00:05:13.713 --> 00:05:16.649
 - There\'s a difference between
 being humble and being like,
 
 00:05:16.683 --> 00:05:19.085
 very lowly, you know?
 
 00:05:19.118 --> 00:05:22.488
 And Charlotte\'s like
 lowly, not humble.
 
 00:05:26.526 --> 00:05:28.494
 - [Charlotte] I think
 I do have powers
 
 00:05:28.528 --> 00:05:30.430
 that people don\'t know about.
 
 00:05:30.463 --> 00:05:33.433
 It\'s just that sometimes
 they assume things about me
 
 00:05:33.466 --> 00:05:34.867
 that I don\'t like.
 
 00:05:38.604 --> 00:05:41.908
 - Okay, so we\'re just gonna
 look through all the songs.
 
 00:05:41.941 --> 00:05:47.513
 Anytime in the script, if
 the text is in all caps,
 
 00:05:47.547 --> 00:05:49.749
 that means it\'s a song, okay?
 
 00:05:49.782 --> 00:05:51.951

 - This was our first.
 
 00:06:31.457 --> 00:06:34.026
 And to see them
 all grown up now.
 
 00:06:35.928 --> 00:06:38.464
 To see them all grown up now.
 
 00:06:41.200 --> 00:06:44.036
 I was born and raised
 in Chinatown here
 
 00:06:44.070 --> 00:06:45.138
 in New York City.
 
 00:06:45.171 --> 00:06:47.940
 They came looking for
 children for the King and I
 
 00:06:47.974 --> 00:06:51.711
 with Yul Brynner and I was
 very lucky to get the job.
 
 00:06:51.744 --> 00:06:56.716
 And so I was pushing my way up
 in the Western theater world.
 
 00:06:58.551 --> 00:07:00.920
 At one point I realized
 
 00:07:00.953 --> 00:07:03.723
 that I had not
 even thought about
 
 00:07:03.756 --> 00:07:06.058
 giving back to my own community,
 
 00:07:06.092 --> 00:07:10.797
 to give the opportunity to
 Asian actors and singers
 
 00:07:10.830 --> 00:07:13.466
 and dancers to be in shows
 
 00:07:13.499 --> 00:07:17.637
 that they would not be cast
 in in the Western theater.
 
 00:07:17.670 --> 00:07:22.008
 And I thought, you know
 what, let\'s start them young.
 
 00:07:26.045 --> 00:07:28.681
 - [Women] Thank you so much
 for coming to our auditions.
 
 00:07:28.714 --> 00:07:30.683
 We\'re very excited
 to have you here.
 
 00:07:30.716 --> 00:07:32.852
 I can\'t wait to see what
 you\'ve all prepared.
 
 00:07:32.885 --> 00:07:34.520
 - I wanna audition for Anna,
 
 00:07:34.554 --> 00:07:38.157
 the Summer Chorus, the Snow
 Chorus, and Middle Anna.
 
 00:07:38.191 --> 00:07:39.158
 - [Girl] You have to say Olaf.
 
 00:07:39.192 --> 00:07:40.026
 - Of course Olaf.
 
 00:07:40.059 --> 00:07:41.027
 - [Girl] She\'s totally
 gonna get Olaf,
 
 00:07:41.060 --> 00:07:42.094
 she\'s so funny.
 
 00:07:42.128 --> 00:07:43.796
 - I\'m auditioning for Olaf.
 
 00:07:43.830 --> 00:07:45.731
 Like one of my
 favorite characters.
 
 00:07:45.765 --> 00:07:47.066
 - I\'m be Hans.

 00:07:48.801 --> 00:07:50.036
 - Percy Jackson.
 
 00:07:50.069 --> 00:07:51.170
 - [Boy] No!
 
 00:07:51.204 --> 00:07:52.138

 on, be serious!
 
 00:07:52.171 --> 00:07:53.206

 - [Woman] All right, so we\'re
 reading the Kristoff scene.
 
 00:08:01.814 --> 00:08:02.748
 All right.
 
 00:08:02.782 --> 00:08:04.517
 - Yeah, and your sister
 who went all ice crazy
 
 00:08:04.550 --> 00:08:05.985
 and ruined my business!
 
 00:08:06.018 --> 00:08:07.687
 - [Woman] Oh no,
 it was my fault!
 
 00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:08.921
 I got engaged to Prince Hans
 
 00:08:08.955 --> 00:08:10.756
 but Elsa freaked out
 because I just met him,
 
 00:08:10.790 --> 00:08:11.757
 you know, today.
 
 00:08:11.791 --> 00:08:17.597
 - Wait, you got engaged
 to someone you just met?
 
 00:08:17.630 --> 00:08:18.865
 - Good job!
 
 00:08:18.898 --> 00:08:19.832
 - Thank you William.
 
 00:08:19.866 --> 00:08:21.601
 - I\'m probably not gonna
 get anything anyway
 
 00:08:21.634 --> 00:08:23.736
 because I\'m an extended day.
 
 00:08:23.769 --> 00:08:28.207

 and you miss part
 of theater club.
 
 00:08:31.110 --> 00:08:32.078
 - Who are you auditioning for?
 
 00:08:32.111 --> 00:08:33.212
 - What do you think?
 
 00:08:33.246 --> 00:08:34.080
 - Kristoff?
 
 00:08:34.113 --> 00:08:35.081
 - Kristoff and Sven.
 
 00:08:35.114 --> 00:08:37.550
 I\'m not gonna get it anyway.
 
 00:08:42.188 --> 00:08:43.823
 You could use help?
 
 00:08:44.924 --> 00:08:48.327
 My name\'s Kristoff and
 I sell ice for a living.
 
 00:08:48.361 --> 00:08:50.162
 - Like how can you use
 your face and your body?
 
 00:08:50.196 --> 00:08:52.198
 I think you can do more.
 
 00:08:52.231 --> 00:08:55.601
 - [Mr. Olsen] One,
 two, ready and sing.
 
 00:08:57.270 --> 00:08:59.171

 00:09:48.254 --> 00:09:51.357
 - I know when I
 first got to PS 124,
 
 00:09:51.390 --> 00:09:53.960
 theater club wasn\'t
 widely accepted.
 
 00:09:53.993 --> 00:09:55.962
 Like, it was a very
 chess driven school.
 
 00:09:55.995 --> 00:09:58.698
 Everything, they\'ve
 won tournaments
 
 00:09:58.731 --> 00:10:00.900
 against high school
 children playing chess
 
 00:10:00.933 --> 00:10:02.668
 and these are
 elementary school kids.
 
 00:10:02.702 --> 00:10:04.003
 So when we first got
 there, their parents
 
 00:10:04.036 --> 00:10:05.037
 were kind of like,
 
 00:10:05.071 --> 00:10:07.306
 \"Okay, what is theater?
 
 00:10:07.340 --> 00:10:10.009
 \"Why is my kid gonna
 be doing this?\"
 
 00:10:10.042 --> 00:10:12.778
 It\'s not something they\'re
 gonna pursue in life,
 
 00:10:12.812 --> 00:10:15.915
 like, why are they
 wasting their time?
 
 00:10:18.417 --> 00:10:20.653
 - Does anyone jump out at you?
 
 00:10:20.686 --> 00:10:21.988
 - I mean more for Elsa.
 
 00:10:22.021 --> 00:10:22.855
 - Yeah.
 
 00:10:22.888 --> 00:10:24.056
 - Than Anna.
 
 00:10:24.090 --> 00:10:25.758
 - You know, because Charlotte
 and Sidney were so strong.
 
 00:10:25.791 --> 00:10:27.093
 - [Hannah] They nailed it.
 
 00:10:27.126 --> 00:10:27.960
 - Yeah.
 
 00:10:27.994 --> 00:10:31.263
 - I think Sidney\'s
 a better actress.
 
 00:10:31.297 --> 00:10:34.033
 - Charlotte really stepped
 it up this past year, though.
 
 00:10:34.066 --> 00:10:34.734
 - Okay.
 
 00:10:34.767 --> 00:10:36.435
 - Like I know like watching her
 
 00:10:36.469 --> 00:10:38.404
 and all of the stuff we
 gave her for Aladdin,
 
 00:10:38.437 --> 00:10:40.339
 she was always there.
 
 00:10:40.373 --> 00:10:41.540
 - [Kyle] Yeah.
 
 00:10:41.574 --> 00:10:44.677
 - And Sidney was too, it\'s
 just like they\'re both great.
 
 00:10:44.710 --> 00:10:45.710
 - Yeah.
 
 00:10:47.046 --> 00:10:50.716
 - What do we think
 about Hans and Kristoff?
 
 00:10:52.284 --> 00:10:53.953
 - [Mr. Olsen] I think
 William could do whatever.
 
 00:10:53.986 --> 00:10:55.888
 I think it\'s just a
 matter of what you think...
 
 00:10:55.921 --> 00:10:56.756
 - Which one.
 
 00:10:56.789 --> 00:10:57.690
 - [Mr. Olsen] He\'s
 better suited for.
 
 00:10:57.723 --> 00:10:58.824
 - I really like Jack
 as one of those too.
 
 00:10:58.858 --> 00:11:01.727
 - [Kyle] I was just gonna
 say between him and Jack.
 
 00:11:05.998 --> 00:11:07.900
 - Did we decide
 on Elsa and Anna?
 
 00:11:07.933 --> 00:11:08.834
 - No.
 
 00:11:08.868 --> 00:11:09.435
 - We\'re avoiding it.
 
 00:11:09.468 --> 00:11:12.271
 - We decided on nothing.
 
 00:11:13.005 --> 00:11:15.141
 [violin playing]
 
 00:11:29.155 --> 00:11:30.856
 - [Cameraman] Hm.
 
 00:11:30.890 --> 00:11:32.191
 - I messed up.
 
 00:11:32.224 --> 00:11:34.827
 So my brother, he was
 really good at acting
 
 00:11:34.860 --> 00:11:37.229
 and he was really
 confident, unlike me,
 
 00:11:37.263 --> 00:11:40.266
 and he got all the
 main characters
 
 00:11:40.299 --> 00:11:42.435
 and one for every single one.
 
 00:11:42.468 --> 00:11:43.335
 - It wasn\'t my fault, okay.
 
 00:11:43.369 --> 00:11:45.971
 - I\'m not blaming you.
 
 00:11:46.005 --> 00:11:48.941
 My brother was like, \"You
 better follow in my footsteps.\"
 
 00:11:48.974 --> 00:11:49.909
 And I\'m like, oh my gosh,
 
 00:11:49.942 --> 00:11:52.411
 and then I audition and
 then I don\'t get in,
 
 00:11:52.445 --> 00:11:54.213
 I mean I don\'t get it.
 
 00:11:54.246 --> 00:11:56.849
 And then he gets mad at me.
 
 00:11:56.882 --> 00:11:59.318
 - I don\'t really get mad
 at you, I just like...
 
 00:11:59.351 --> 00:12:02.288
 - You got mad at me
 when I didn\'t get Annie.
 
 00:12:02.321 --> 00:12:03.489
 You got really,
 really mad at me.
 
 00:12:03.522 --> 00:12:06.992
 - Okay, that\'s \'cause you,
 you could\'ve been Annie okay.
 
 00:12:24.577 --> 00:12:27.379
 - At this point, we\'re about
 to pass out the cast list
 
 00:12:27.413 --> 00:12:30.049
 and everybody\'s gonna
 find out their roles.
 
 00:12:30.082 --> 00:12:31.450
 Just what\'s something
 you should be keeping
 
 00:12:31.484 --> 00:12:35.121
 in mind, Jade?
 
 00:12:35.154 --> 00:12:38.057
 - Always be grateful
 for your cast and role.
 
 00:12:38.090 --> 00:12:39.458
 - Yes, William?
 
 00:12:39.492 --> 00:12:41.327
 - Don\'t hurt, cry, murder,
 
 00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:45.998
 or bully the person that
 got the role you wanted.
 
 00:12:46.031 --> 00:12:48.901
 - I think when you do find
 out what part you are,
 
 00:12:48.934 --> 00:12:51.237
 that part is now
 your responsibility
 
 00:12:51.270 --> 00:12:53.372
 to be creative and have fun with
 
 00:12:53.405 --> 00:12:55.241
 so that we can tell
 a really good story,
 
 00:12:55.274 --> 00:12:56.542
 does that make sense?
 
 00:12:56.575 --> 00:12:57.209
 - [Girl] Yes.
 
 00:12:57.243 --> 00:12:58.210
 - [Hannah] Yeah, Charlotte?
 
 00:12:58.244 --> 00:13:00.112
 - Even though you don\'t
 get the part you want
 
 00:13:00.146 --> 00:13:03.282
 that you\'re equally as
 important as the big roles.
 
 00:13:03.315 --> 00:13:04.283
 - [Hannah] Yeah,
 
 00:13:04.316 --> 00:13:07.853
 \'cause you\'re definitely
 part of the whole story.
 
 00:13:07.887 --> 00:13:08.854
 - [Mr. Olsen] Okay,
 when we call you,
 
 00:13:08.888 --> 00:13:10.990
 please nicely come up
 and pick up a cast list.
 
 00:13:11.023 --> 00:13:12.992
 - [Boy] Oh my god.
 
 00:13:13.025 --> 00:13:15.294

 00:13:26.338 --> 00:13:27.406
 - I got Hans!
 
 00:13:30.476 --> 00:13:34.413
 - I\'m Pabbie and .
 
 00:13:36.982 --> 00:13:38.951

 00:13:38.984 --> 00:13:40.352

 - Congratulations Angelina!
 
 00:13:48.027 --> 00:13:50.429
 Good job Angelina!
 
 00:13:53.032 --> 00:13:56.302

 00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:03.108
 Good job everybody!
 
 00:14:04.910 --> 00:14:06.946

 like, what the hell?
 
 00:14:06.979 --> 00:14:09.648
 - I\'m...
 
 00:14:09.682 --> 00:14:14.186
 - got Anna, cool!
 
 00:14:14.220 --> 00:14:15.521

 00:14:17.189 --> 00:14:18.591

 00:16:29.421 --> 00:16:33.459

 your parent, too, right?

 - Yeah, but, the guy doesn\'t
 have to do everything.
 
 00:16:37.329 --> 00:16:38.430
 - Of course.
 
 00:16:38.464 --> 00:16:42.101
 - What, the guy has to do
 everything in the family?
 
 00:16:42.134 --> 00:16:42.801
 - Yeah.
 
 00:16:42.835 --> 00:16:45.037
 - Isn\'t that a little sexist?
 
 00:16:45.070 --> 00:16:46.772
 - Do you know how to write it?
 
 00:16:46.805 --> 00:16:48.107
 Man.
 
 00:16:48.140 --> 00:16:49.241
 The Chinese word.
 
 00:16:49.274 --> 00:16:50.275
 - [Boy] No.
 
 00:17:09.161 --> 00:17:10.662
 - So let\'s just talk about,
 
 00:17:10.696 --> 00:17:15.100
 let\'s talk about the story
 that we\'re going to tell.
 
 00:17:15.134 --> 00:17:20.506
 - A King and Queen that died
 in a terrible ship accident,
 
 00:17:20.873 --> 00:17:24.109
 Elsa and Anna were
 left by themselves
 
 00:17:25.411 --> 00:17:29.481
 and Elsa had to keep her
 powers secret from everyone,
 
 00:17:29.515 --> 00:17:31.350
 including Anna.
 
 00:17:31.383 --> 00:17:34.486
 - For some reason there\'s
 this guy named Hans.
 
 00:17:34.520 --> 00:17:36.655
 He falls in love with Anna,
 
 00:17:36.688 --> 00:17:41.093
 so then he can become
 King of Arendelle, but...
 
 00:17:41.126 --> 00:17:42.728
 - Elsa gets angry because Anna
 
 00:17:42.761 --> 00:17:45.330
 is marrying somebody
 she just met,
 
 00:17:45.364 --> 00:17:46.832
 so then she shows her powers.
 
 00:17:46.865 --> 00:17:50.836
 - And she\'s like, \"Ah!\"
 And she runs away.
 
 00:17:50.869 --> 00:17:55.841
 - Anna meets Kristoff and then
 they go off try to find Elsa.
 
 00:17:56.241 --> 00:17:58.143
 - Elsa wanted her to stay away
 
 00:17:58.177 --> 00:18:00.112
 because she can\'t
 control her powers,
 
 00:18:00.145 --> 00:18:03.582
 but Anna did not listen
 and she froze her heart.
 
 00:18:03.615 --> 00:18:08.654
 - Kristoff decided to bring
 Anna to the hidden folks.
 
 00:18:08.687 --> 00:18:10.322
 Pabbie examined her
 
 00:18:10.355 --> 00:18:14.193
 and they found out that she\'d
 been struck in the heart.
 
 00:18:14.226 --> 00:18:16.261
 They said that only
 an act of true love
 
 00:18:16.295 --> 00:18:18.697
 could help thaw out the ice.
 
 00:18:18.730 --> 00:18:21.300
 - Kristoff brings Anna to Hans
 
 00:18:22.234 --> 00:18:24.870
 and then Hans reveals
 himself that he was lying
 
 00:18:24.903 --> 00:18:27.506
 and that he just wanted
 to marry into the throne,
 
 00:18:27.539 --> 00:18:32.511
 and then Anna sees Hans about
 to kill Anna, Elsa,
 
 00:18:32.778 --> 00:18:35.380
 Elsa, and then Anna runs to Elsa
 
 00:18:35.414 --> 00:18:39.485
 and then saves
 her, and then yeah.
 
 00:18:44.356 --> 00:18:45.390
 - Great.
 
 00:18:45.424 --> 00:18:48.360
 I think you got the whole story.
 
 00:18:48.393 --> 00:18:50.929
 So we\'re gonna make a list of
 things you need to fill out.
 
 00:18:50.963 --> 00:18:52.197
 Ready?
 
 00:18:52.231 --> 00:18:53.432
 Number one, name.
 
 00:18:53.465 --> 00:18:54.566
 Number two, age.
 
 00:18:54.600 --> 00:18:57.402
 Number three, a word that
 describes your character.
 
 00:18:57.436 --> 00:18:58.837
 Number four, the energy,
 
 00:18:58.871 --> 00:19:00.772
 a physical energy
 of your character.
 
 00:19:00.806 --> 00:19:03.208
 - What\'s the last
 one he just said?
 
 00:19:04.209 --> 00:19:06.845
 - Do they have any friends,
 if so, who are they?
 
 00:19:06.879 --> 00:19:08.847
 - So, number seven,
 your character voice.
 
 00:19:08.881 --> 00:19:11.250
 Number eight, how does
 your character laugh?
 
 00:19:11.283 --> 00:19:13.752
 Number nine, how does
 your character react
 
 00:19:13.785 --> 00:19:15.754
 when they are sad or crying?
 
 00:19:15.787 --> 00:19:20.392
 Put some thought into this and
 please have it by next week
 
 00:19:20.425 --> 00:19:22.227
 and we will be sharing this
 
 00:19:22.261 --> 00:19:24.863
 so please put some
 effort into it.
 
 00:19:24.897 --> 00:19:26.431
 Yes?
 
 00:19:31.436 --> 00:19:32.404
 - Ah.
 
 00:19:32.437 --> 00:19:34.573
 This one I love.
 
 00:19:50.322 --> 00:19:52.691
 It worked, did it not?
 
 00:19:54.493 --> 00:19:57.496
 This also works, but hold this.
 
 00:19:57.529 --> 00:19:59.565
 High five, Joshie.
 
 00:19:59.598 --> 00:20:00.599
 Wait.
 
 00:20:00.632 --> 00:20:01.800
 Hold the metal.
 
 00:20:03.669 --> 00:20:06.004
 Hold the metal, high five.
 
 00:20:06.038 --> 00:20:07.472
 Wait!
 
 00:20:07.506 --> 00:20:08.506
 Joshua!
 
 00:20:13.045 --> 00:20:16.882
 Watch this, high five.

 annual career day.
 
 00:43:55.866 --> 00:43:57.267
 This is something I started

 just somebody who came here,

 went to school at
 this school, and then,
 
 00:44:12.116 --> 00:44:14.818
 but he actually
 went back to China
 
 00:44:14.852 --> 00:44:19.823
 and he convinced those dynasty
 folks to send young Chinese,
 
 00:44:20.157 --> 00:44:23.794
 all boys at the time,
 to America to study.
 
 00:44:23.827 --> 00:44:27.865
 So what do you think was the
 reason that program stopped?
 
 00:44:27.898 --> 00:44:29.900
 There was a law that passed,

 laws which said that we\'re
 gonna close our doors
 
 00:44:33.003 --> 00:44:35.973
 to the Chinese just
 because they\'re Chinese
 
 00:44:36.006 --> 00:44:38.242

 00:44:38.275 --> 00:44:42.312
 the dynasty didn\'t want those
 Chinese boys coming here,
 
 00:44:42.346 --> 00:44:44.848

 So then, the next one
 I picked was Clinton,
 
 00:45:52.950 --> 00:45:57.387
 \'cause I love, I love art
 and theater\'s basically art.
 
 00:45:57.421 --> 00:46:00.057

 that I\'m going to be
 around different races,
 
 00:46:27.251 --> 00:46:32.356

 I won\'t have all these people,

 She didn\'t even
 measure our things.

 00:49:04.474 --> 00:49:08.378
 So, he\'s going to tell
 you while I turn around.
 
 00:49:09.413 --> 00:49:12.616
 - My wife got a job
 teaching at a college
 
 00:49:12.649 --> 00:49:16.086
 in a town called
 Kirksville, Missouri,
 
 00:49:16.119 --> 00:49:20.190
 so that means that sadly this
 is my last year at PS 124.
 
 00:49:20.223 --> 00:49:21.258
 - [Students] No!
 
 00:49:21.291 --> 00:49:22.291
 - Yeah.
 
 00:49:25.329 --> 00:49:26.596
 Some of you in this
 room I\'ve known
 
 00:49:26.630 --> 00:49:29.466
 since my first day
 at PS 124 in Pre-K
 
 00:49:29.499 --> 00:49:31.068
 and I\'ve seen you guys grow up
 
 00:49:31.101 --> 00:49:34.304
 and I\'m gonna be a music
 teacher in Missouri
 
 00:49:34.338 --> 00:49:37.407
 and the whole school
 is only 120 kids.
 
 00:49:37.441 --> 00:49:39.409
 It\'s literally like in a farm.
 
 00:49:39.443 --> 00:49:41.044
 Like, I visited the
 school last week
 
 00:49:41.078 --> 00:49:42.412
 and it\'s like, you drive up
 
 00:49:42.446 --> 00:49:44.314
 and there\'s cows
 across the street.
 
 00:49:44.548 --> 00:49:45.215
 [laughter]
 
 00:49:45.248 --> 00:49:46.616
 - They might be the students!
 
 00:49:46.650 --> 00:49:48.185
 - Yeah.
 
 00:49:48.218 --> 00:49:48.785
 Yes.
 
 00:49:48.819 --> 00:49:50.020
 William?
 
 00:49:50.053 --> 00:49:53.390
 - Can we sneak on your plane
 please so you can\'t go there?
 
 00:49:53.423 --> 00:49:54.558
 - I think you\'d
 probably get in trouble
 
 00:49:54.591 --> 00:49:57.027
 for sneaking on my plane, but.
 
 00:49:58.161 --> 00:50:00.230
 Oh, thank you guys.
 
 00:50:00.263 --> 00:50:01.263
 Thank you.
 
 00:50:02.733 --> 00:50:03.633
 What\'s that?
 
 00:50:03.667 --> 00:50:04.067
 - Can I use the bathroom?
 
 00:50:04.101 --> 00:50:06.003
 - Yes, go ahead.
 
 00:50:07.204 --> 00:50:08.438
 You can, I\'ll come
 back and visit.
 
 00:50:08.472 --> 00:50:10.040
 I\'ll come back and
 visit, I promise.
 
 00:50:10.073 --> 00:50:11.441
 - Come back every other year?
 
 00:50:11.475 --> 00:50:12.509
 - Hm?
 
 00:50:12.542 --> 00:50:13.610
 - Are you coming
 back any other year?
 
 00:50:13.643 --> 00:50:16.446
 - No, I have to start, I
 have to move this summer,
 
 00:50:16.480 --> 00:50:18.749
 but I\'ll come back and visit.
 
 00:50:22.219 --> 00:50:25.088
 - I wanna move to Mr.
 Olsen\'s new school!
 
 00:50:25.122 --> 00:50:26.356
 And be one of his students.
 
 00:50:26.390 --> 00:50:29.426
 - Yeah, now that we went
 under 21 students!
 
 00:50:32.562 --> 00:50:33.096
 - Bye!
 
 00:50:33.130 --> 00:50:35.232
 - Bye-bye, thank you.
 
 00:50:35.265 --> 00:50:36.299
 Bye, thanks girls, bye.
 
 00:50:36.333 --> 00:50:38.335
 Bye Daniel.
 
 00:50:44.608 --> 00:50:47.344
 - What we\'re going to
 do, in your groups,
 
 00:50:47.377 --> 00:50:49.379
 to come up with the
 tableau of Arendelle
 
 00:50:49.413 --> 00:50:53.150
 at the very end of the show.
 
 00:50:53.350 --> 00:50:56.787
 So how your characters are
 feeling and interacting.
 
 00:50:56.820 --> 00:51:00.524
 - I\'m bored.
 
 00:51:00.557 --> 00:51:04.694
 - [Woman] Can you
 come to this window?
 
 00:51:04.728 --> 00:51:07.264
 - Scoot over, you\'re
 gonna be, thank you.
 
 00:51:07.297 --> 00:51:09.199
 - In the last
 picture everyone cheers!
 
 00:51:09.232 --> 00:51:10.232
 - No!
 
 00:51:11.535 --> 00:51:12.736
 - Grab him!
 
 00:51:22.612 --> 00:51:24.381
 Yeah, we drag him!
 
 00:51:24.414 --> 00:51:25.849
 - I\'m dragging him!
 
 00:51:27.684 --> 00:51:29.820
 - This is like epilogue.
 
 00:51:32.689 --> 00:51:34.257
 - Oh, what?
 
 00:51:34.291 --> 00:51:37.094
 - He died, because
 of the prison!
 
 00:51:40.163 --> 00:51:41.698
 - Are you okay?
 
 00:51:46.436 --> 00:51:48.638
 - He\'s laughing, I think.
 
 00:51:51.875 --> 00:51:52.909
 - You had to kick me in the head
 
 00:51:52.943 --> 00:51:54.111
 and then smack me in the face!
 
 00:51:54.144 --> 00:51:55.846
 - I didn\'t kick you in the
 head or smack you in the face.
 
 00:51:55.879 --> 00:51:56.646
 - It\'s her.
 
 00:51:56.680 --> 00:51:57.681
 - I didn\'t!
 
 00:51:57.714 --> 00:51:58.882
 - I\'m not doing this.
 
 00:51:58.915 --> 00:52:01.785
 - I didn\'t kick you in the
 head or smack you in the face.
 
 00:52:01.818 --> 00:52:03.587
 - I didn\'t touch him!
 
 00:52:03.620 --> 00:52:04.554
 - I didn\'t touch him.
 
 00:52:04.588 --> 00:52:08.692
 - I didn\'t do anything
 except for the hair.
 
 00:52:09.359 --> 00:52:10.393
 - My group kicked me in the head
 
 00:52:10.427 --> 00:52:11.895
 and then smacked me in the face.
 
 00:52:14.898 --> 00:52:17.767
 - I\'m just standing here!
 
 00:52:17.801 --> 00:52:19.503
 - I didn\'t touch him!
 
 00:52:19.536 --> 00:52:20.704
 - Don\'t be defensive.
 
 00:52:20.737 --> 00:52:23.206
 Somebody hit
 William in the head.
 
 00:52:23.240 --> 00:52:24.541
 It\'s not acceptable.
 
 00:52:24.574 --> 00:52:26.710
 - [Boy] I only touched him.
 
 00:52:26.743 --> 00:52:28.278
 - With your foot or your hands?
 
 00:52:28.311 --> 00:52:30.313
 - [Boy] With my hands.
 
 00:52:31.715 --> 00:52:33.717
 - Whose foot was involved
 with William\'s head?
 
 00:52:36.386 --> 00:52:38.622
 - [Woman] Keep
 going, keep working!
 
 00:52:41.691 --> 00:52:44.294
 - As a group, you\'re not
 being safe right now.
 
 00:52:44.327 --> 00:52:45.428
 Okay, so you have to
 make a better choice
 
 00:52:45.462 --> 00:52:47.864
 so that William
 doesn\'t get hurt.
 
 00:52:47.898 --> 00:52:49.399
 As a group, okay?
 
 00:52:50.567 --> 00:52:53.570
 Thank you.
 
 00:52:57.707 --> 00:53:03.813
 - Let\'s pretend that Hans is
 now a good guy again, okay?
 
 00:53:03.847 --> 00:53:05.215
 Let\'s make a happy ending.
 
 00:53:05.248 --> 00:53:06.483
 Make a happy ending picture.
 
 00:53:06.516 --> 00:53:08.185
 Ready, set go.
 
 00:53:08.418 --> 00:53:10.687
 - Uh, happy ending picture.
 
 00:53:12.756 --> 00:53:14.891
 - Party time!
 
 00:53:19.930 --> 00:53:23.733
 - We did nothing, they
 already have the picture.
 
 00:53:26.336 --> 00:53:27.404
 - We\'re going to sleep.
 
 00:53:27.437 --> 00:53:28.605
 - Yeah, go to sleep.
 
 00:53:28.638 --> 00:53:29.878
 Sleeping is a very good picture.
 
 00:53:29.906 --> 00:53:31.942
 - Yeah, sleeping\'s
 a very good picture.
 
 00:53:31.975 --> 00:53:35.312
 - Okay, I think we need to
 help them a little more.
 
 00:53:35.345 --> 00:53:36.379
 Yeah.
 
 00:53:36.413 --> 00:53:37.414
 Let\'s see.
 
 00:53:38.982 --> 00:53:41.818
 Do you want them to
 mirror that side?
 
 00:53:41.851 --> 00:53:42.686
 Okay.
 
 00:53:42.719 --> 00:53:46.423
 William and Weselton,
 arms up please.
 
 00:53:46.456 --> 00:53:49.492
 Like this.
 
 00:53:49.526 --> 00:53:51.494
 - [Student] But we\'re
 copying the other group.
 
 00:53:51.528 --> 00:53:53.296
 - They\'re doing it
 slightly different.
 
 00:53:53.330 --> 00:53:55.899
 But you guys are different
 characters, so it\'s okay.
 
 00:53:55.932 --> 00:53:58.835
 These are your final
 poses, make sense?
 
 00:53:58.868 --> 00:53:59.669
 - [Students] Yeah!
 
 00:53:59.703 --> 00:54:00.704
 - Great!
 
 00:54:03.740 --> 00:54:05.675
 - [Student] You\'re copying them!
 
 00:54:05.709 --> 00:54:10.780
 - [Student 2] Miss
 Hannah told us.
 
 00:54:15.051 --> 00:54:18.355
 - I just need your thumbprint
 and your signature, okay.
 
 00:54:18.388 --> 00:54:20.757
 Put your bag down.
 
 00:54:20.790 --> 00:54:21.258
 Okay, sign your name.
 
 00:54:21.291 --> 00:54:23.026
 - It\'s so pretty!
 
 00:54:23.059 --> 00:54:28.031
 - [Woman] Close the door so
 Mr. Olsen won\'t be seeing.
 
 00:54:28.064 --> 00:54:30.634
 Thank you guys,
 don\'t tell Mr. Olsen!
 
 00:54:30.667 --> 00:54:38.667
 - [Student] Maybe this color?
 
 00:54:45.649 --> 00:54:47.384
 - Now what do I do?
 
 00:55:08.805 --> 00:55:11.775
 - Okay, we\'re gonna start
 bringing in props and costumes.
 
 00:55:11.808 --> 00:55:17.847
 You only, only, only touch
 a prop or a piece of scenery
 
 00:55:17.881 --> 00:55:19.082
 if it is your job
 
 00:55:19.115 --> 00:55:21.751
 and you only do it
 during the show, agreed?
 
 00:55:21.785 --> 00:55:22.786
 - [Students] Yes!
 
 00:55:23.887 --> 00:55:26.056
 - [Hannah] Okay.
 
 00:55:26.089 --> 00:55:28.591
 - [Student] Alvin, oh my god!
 
 00:55:28.625 --> 00:55:29.626
 I\'m busted!
 
 00:55:30.627 --> 00:55:34.898
 ♪ Be the good girl you
 always have to be ♪
 
 00:55:34.931 --> 00:55:38.501
 ♪ Conceal don\'t feel
 
 00:55:38.535 --> 00:55:40.704
 ♪ Put on a show
 
 00:55:40.737 --> 00:55:43.640
 ♪ Make one wrong
 move and everyone ♪
 
 00:55:43.673 --> 00:55:51.673
 ♪ Let it go
 
 00:55:59.489 --> 00:56:02.625
 - Jocelyn, you gotta
 spit out the gum.
 
 00:56:02.659 --> 00:56:04.094
 You can\'t sing with
 that in your mouth.
 
 00:56:04.127 --> 00:56:05.462
 - Why?
 
 00:56:05.495 --> 00:56:07.163
 Why would you be
 in theater club,
 
 00:56:07.197 --> 00:56:10.433
 have spent the last couple
 of months working on a show
 
 00:56:10.467 --> 00:56:13.002
 and then do a level
 three performance
 
 00:56:13.036 --> 00:56:16.473
 for your friends and
 family and not try?
 
 00:56:18.708 --> 00:56:19.708
 Why?
 
 00:56:20.610 --> 00:56:22.612
 - I know that a lot of
 people wants to be famous
 
 00:56:22.645 --> 00:56:26.816
 and they\'re always reaching
 for fame and glory, so,
 
 00:56:28.218 --> 00:56:31.121
 I guess we\'re just
 doing this for fame?
 
 00:56:31.154 --> 00:56:31.955
 - Okay.
 
 00:56:31.988 --> 00:56:32.956
 Interesting.
 
 00:56:32.989 --> 00:56:34.457
 Now, yes, Cadence?
 
 00:56:34.491 --> 00:56:36.159
 - We were not thinking of
 what our show could be,
 
 00:56:36.192 --> 00:56:38.161
 we\'re only thinking about
 what it is right now
 
 00:56:38.194 --> 00:56:39.696
 and that\'s, thinking,
 and we\'re thinking...
 
 00:56:39.729 --> 00:56:42.065
 - Yes, what do you
 want your show to be?
 
 00:56:42.098 --> 00:56:43.098
 Amazing?
 
 00:56:43.967 --> 00:56:45.068
 - [Student] Entertaining.
 
 00:56:45.101 --> 00:56:47.003
 - Entertaining.
 
 00:56:47.036 --> 00:56:48.471
 Yes.
 
 00:56:48.505 --> 00:56:50.540
 And you can be all those things.
 
 00:56:50.573 --> 00:56:52.809
 So why are you not doing it?
 
 00:56:57.180 --> 00:57:02.752
 - We have two ish more
 days to practice it.
 
 00:57:03.219 --> 00:57:05.188
 - There\'s certain
 songs where like,
 
 00:57:05.221 --> 00:57:07.457
 you were not singing at all.
 
 00:57:07.490 --> 00:57:08.525
 - You have to be proud of this.
 
 00:57:08.558 --> 00:57:10.860
 This is the last time
 you\'re probably gonna do,
 
 00:57:10.894 --> 00:57:12.562
 this is your last show here.
 
 00:57:14.030 --> 00:57:17.200
 This is important, this
 is your last show here.
 
 00:57:17.233 --> 00:57:19.502
 - Tomorrow\'s your
 final rehearsal right?
 
 00:57:19.536 --> 00:57:20.470
 - Yep.
 
 00:57:20.503 --> 00:57:22.038
 - Sigh.
 
 00:57:22.071 --> 00:57:24.808
 It\'s gonna be my
 final rehearsal.
 
 00:57:24.841 --> 00:57:27.510
 - [Jack\'s Dad] And how are
 you feeling about that?
 
 00:57:27.544 --> 00:57:29.512
 - Mix of happy and sad.
 
 00:57:32.182 --> 00:57:37.053
 It\'s like the last
 thing before the show
 
 00:57:37.086 --> 00:57:41.758
 but I\'m sad because
 I\'m leaving PS 124.
 
 00:57:43.760 --> 00:57:46.663
 FYI, Jonah, all the
 seats are filled up.
 
 00:57:46.696 --> 00:57:47.263
 - No!
 
 00:57:47.297 --> 00:57:48.798
 - Don\'t scare him.
 
 00:57:48.832 --> 00:57:51.234
 - They just said
 that three times!
 
 00:57:51.267 --> 00:57:52.702
 - Don\'t feel
 nervous or anything,
 
 00:57:52.735 --> 00:57:57.640
 like no pressure, no pressure.
 
 00:58:02.312 --> 00:58:03.613
 - Girls if you\'re in the show,
 
 00:58:03.646 --> 00:58:04.581
 we\'re in here getting dressed,
 
 00:58:04.614 --> 00:58:06.916
 you might wanna come
 in and shut the door.
 
 00:58:06.950 --> 00:58:08.718
 Let\'s go!
 
 00:58:08.751 --> 00:58:09.686
 Okay.
 
 00:58:09.719 --> 00:58:11.054
 - Oh my god!
 
 00:58:15.925 --> 00:58:16.826
 - Yeah.
 
 00:58:16.860 --> 00:58:20.630
 Hang on Elsa, it\'s
 not always about Elsa.
 
 00:58:24.968 --> 00:58:27.270
 - Yeah, he looks like a girl!
 
 00:58:27.303 --> 00:58:28.303
 I\'m so nervous!
 
 00:58:28.771 --> 00:58:30.640
 - [Woman] You\'re nervous?
 
 00:58:31.307 --> 00:58:33.810
 - You need to
 project your voice.
 
 00:58:33.843 --> 00:58:35.612
 - Jade we can suffer together.
 
 00:58:35.645 --> 00:58:38.781
 - We\'ll make
 America great again.
 
 00:58:39.716 --> 00:58:42.852
 - You guys doing theater
 and doing shows are fun!
