What exactly are the "spoken" portions of the Cadets show?


Recommended Posts

I have no problem with either of the singing parts, just the speaking parts. Unnecessary, in my opinion, makes the show a lot worse than it could be. (But with 20+ years of complete masterpieces of shows, I can let a few "just pretty good" ones slide by every once in a while.) So whoever saw the show...which portions are actually spoken, and for how long?

Yeah, I've heard about that, just wondering if they added any more. Also, does anyone know if the hornline/percussion is playing during the dialog, or is it completely silent?

The way it works is that the 2nd song is a percussion feature, in between sections and people trading off there are about 4 counts of silence where everything stops and a character says a line. That happens maybe 8 times and that section lasts probably 30 seconds if memory serves me correctly.

Does anyone remember any of the lines?

Other than the "Where are we?"'s not word for word, and they could have been tweaked since I saw them anyway.

It's kinda weird. I'm not the biggest fan of vocals during a show, but I think once they tweak things a little bit I'll actually kinda like these.

Actually, I do remember one of the lines (the last one actually). The tenors do their big feature and then one of them says "Do they always have to do that?" It was the only one that I thought felt really awkward.

Hah, that's actually pretty funny. One problem I have with narration is that it's too loud...I really wish they would turn the volume down so it's a bit more subtle.
