The producers of Ratatouille: The TikTok Musical tapped veteran performers to create this modern take on the original animated series. But the production was anything but straightforward. It takes months to create a full-scale musical. What&#8217;s even more surprising is that a show with such a short gestation period could still have a fully-fledged cast and crew.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"TikTok_creators_create_ratatouille_musical\"><\/span>TikTok creators create ratatouille musical<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A successful TikTok music video has now been turned into a full-fledged Broadway musical. The video, starring Broadway veteran Adam Lambert, was so popular that it was broadcast on the world&#8217;s biggest music channel. In the end, the TikTok video raised over two million dollars for the Actors Fund. The production received nearly three million views. In addition to being a hit with viewers, the musical is also making a profit.<\/p>\n<p>It is possible that the TikTok creators will use the money to bring their musical to the big screen, but if they do, they could simply take the profits and go out of business. After all, the music video creators own all copyright. It&#8217;s unclear whether Disney will make any profit from the show, but it will benefit from the proceeds of the online event. Regardless of whether it ends up as a full-fledged musical or not, it will likely be a viral hit.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Broadway_producers_produce_ratatouille_musical\"><\/span>Broadway producers produce ratatouille musical<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After a successful film adaptation starring Patton Oswalt as Remy, Broadway producers are now looking to bring the show to the stage. Those familiar with the movie know that the cast includes Patton Oswalt as Remy, Lou Romano as Alfredo Linguini, Janet Garofalo as Colette Tatou, and Peter O&#8217;Toole as food critic Anton Ego.<\/p>\n<p>The concept of a Ratatouille musical grew from viral videos on TikTok and spread to the internet by theater creatives. The song &#8220;Ratatouille&#8221; by Emily Jacobsen became an internet meme and the idea of a musical based on the movie began to gain momentum. Fans began to create puppets, choreograph numbers, compose original songs, design costumes, and use PlayBills. With all the ingredients in place, a Ratatouille musical was only lacking the directions and talent to turn it into a reality.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Production_takes_months\"><\/span>Production takes months<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Production of a Ratatouille musical can take months. The production is not Disney-sponsored, but the studio is putting up the musical to raise money for the COVID-19 crisis. Disney has no plans to make a musical of the beloved rat. The production would be difficult, and it wouldn&#8217;t fit in with the Disney brand. In the end, the show is a hilarious comedy, and the audience will likely enjoy the show.<\/p>\n<p>The cast of Ratatouille the Musical includes Wayne Brady as Django, Tituss Burgess as Remy, Adam Lambert as Emile, and Andre De Shields as Ego. Other cast members include Priscilla Lopez as Mabel, Ashley Park as Colette, and Owen Tabaka as Young Ego. Other cast members include Mary Testa, a three-time Tony nominee, who plays Skinner.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Crew_consists_of_TikTok_creators\"><\/span>Crew consists of TikTok creators<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Ratatouille is the best animated film ever made, and the producers of Ratatouille: The Musical decided to put that popular movie to music. The TikTok creators of the film wrote a book for the musical, and it premiered in January 2021. The show has been an instant hit, with over $1 million in ticket sales (tickets start at $5).<\/p>\n<p>The original video was uploaded to TikTok, and it was shared with friends and family, resulting in a fan-made TikTok musical. The project was so popular that a few creators joined in, and a filmed concert was announced. The production will be broadcast on January 1, and all proceeds will benefit The Actors Fund. Ticket sales are being made through TodayTix.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Audience_reaction_to_ratatouille_musical\"><\/span>Audience reaction to ratatouille musical<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In a recent review of Ratatouille The Musical, an audience member remarked, &#8220;I&#8217;m speechless, but I&#8217;m smiling too.&#8221; The film&#8217;s famed rat chef, played by Patton Oswalt, captured audiences&#8217; hearts with its artistic vision and clever dialogue. The climax, which reverted audiences to their childlike appreciation, included an impassioned restaurant critic.<\/p>\n<p>While the original film was an unlikely choice for a Broadway production, the concept of creating a musical with this film was not only ambitious, but also a good cause. While the film wasn&#8217;t an original idea, many amateur theatre artists were inspired to create the show as a fundraising effort for the COVID-19 pandemic. The audience&#8217;s positive response to the new production may have given aspiring musical-makers hope that it will do the same.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"522\" height=\"292\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jr8Ds1w_BvU\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How a TikTok Creation Could Ever Be a Broadway Musical You&#8217;ve probably wondered how a TikTok creation could ever become a Broadway production.
