00:00I can't do this.
00:01No, you can. You can do this and you're going to be great.
00:04Besides, what's the worst that could happen out there? What, you die?
00:08I could die?
00:08No, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, I was trying to be inspirational.
00:12Look, take a chance and break a leg. You got this.
00:18All right, now go. You gotta go.
00:20Theater is a beautiful, living, breathing thing.
00:22To tread the boards is a duty and a blessing.
00:26Yeah, as long as you don't f*** it up.
00:29So, Lynn and I had so much fun, right, making Moana,
00:33that, you know, we decided to produce our own Broadway show.
00:35Obviously, Dwayne and I are very busy in our respective fields.
00:38Right, and we have a team of scientists looking into slowing the rotation of the Earth
00:42so we can film an extra movie when we're ready. We're serious about that.
00:46Yeah, no, we're making progress, too.
00:47So when a brilliant young artist named Michael Palomar DM'd us on Twitter
00:51with his vision for Millennials, the musical, we couldn't say yes faster.
00:55That's right. I mean, I love pitches under 140 characters.
00:58We like to think of him, no pressure, as the voice of a generation.
01:02Why? Millennials the musical?
01:04I think it's because people think that we're a bunch of overstressed, whiny crybabies
01:09yearning for validation.
01:10As a matter of fact, I was at Intelligentsia talking to my friend about this new project.
01:14This old man comes up to me and he says,
01:15What? Do you want a participation award?
01:18I looked at him right in his baby boomer face and I said,
01:21You invented those.
01:24Like all geniuses, he's a little off.
01:28He's off.
01:28Yeah.
01:30All right, everyone.
01:31Now, I know we've been working very hard for the past eight months.
01:33Right now, I've taken the opportunity to print up some fresh scripts.
01:37So go ahead, flip through it.
01:38Now, as you're reading it, you may realize that I've made some minor changes to the scripts.
01:49You've changed everything.
01:50I didn't change everything. Only the blue pages.
01:53They're all blue.
01:54We go on in seven days.
01:55I think you missed page 76.
01:59One page?
02:00That's on.
02:01That's 17.
02:02Yelling's not going to storm any.
02:03He's the edge, Michael.
02:05I put up with your late nights.
02:06Your acting exercises at the zoo.
02:09And not to mention your bizarre insistence that I never speak of astronauts.
02:13Yeah, please, don't say that word.
02:15This is too far.
02:16I quit.
02:19And if she quits, I quit.
02:23Oh, no.
02:24Uh, Michael?
02:25Our leads just quit.
02:27Now what?
02:30Natalie?
02:31Ezra?
02:34The show must go on!
02:38When you get cast as an understudy, you hope to get on stage?
02:42Maybe?
02:43Not open on Broadway after getting a new script seven days before.
02:47At least it helps when the leading man's good looking.
02:50Like for the audience.
02:51Yeah.
02:52The audience.
02:55The relationship between the choreographer and his director is vital.
02:59Trust is the foundation of everything.
03:00It's everything.
03:01I mean, I even consider doing the choreography, right?
03:04I'm sort of known for my fire moves.
03:07Fire!
03:11You're welcome.
03:13He sings.
03:14Have you completely lost your mind?
03:16Stefan, you want me to change all the choreography in, uh, five days?
03:23What kind of drugs are you on?
03:24Okay, Stefan.
03:25The drugs I'm on were mostly approved by a doctor and have nothing to do with this.
03:29Maybe we shouldn't be redoing the entire story.
03:32Whoa!
03:33Yeah, it's kind of insane.
03:34Yes.
03:35Yes, it is insane.
03:36And that's the point.
03:37At the edge is where we find the center.
03:41Okay, that's not helping.
03:42You're just gonna have to trust me.
03:45All right, I'll read you the numbers.
03:47Yes.
03:47But I want you to change one of the songs so I can bring dabbing to the stage.
03:52Yeah?
03:52Yeah?
03:53Friedrich is not going to like that.
03:56All right.
03:57The show must go on.
04:00Yes, go on and get out of here.
04:01Here we go, everybody.
04:03M, five, six, seven, eight.
04:05One, two, three, four.
04:06I'm so glad we hired Stefan.
04:08I mean, that guy is the fire emoji with lasers.
04:12And I was thinking about this.
04:13So, Lynn, if I were an emoji, it would be like if the rocket ship and the flexing arm and
04:19the tongue face, yeah, and the wonky eyes all had a baby.
04:23That's some emoji.
04:25Composing a song is a delicate process.
04:28Making sure every note sings and each stanza tells a story can take years.
04:32Jesus, maluki.
04:34Three days?
04:35You're crazy, man.
04:36Friedrich, the courts have already decided that that is simply not true.
04:40Michael, why are you doing this?
04:41Because this makes no sense.
04:42Because I know that it can be better and I refuse to settle for less.
04:49Okay, fine.
04:50I'm only doing this, though, because I see a fire deep in those eyes.
04:54I know.
04:54I'm seeing a doctor for it.
04:56Oh.
04:57So where are our leads?
05:04Are you two sleeping together?
05:06No.
05:07We're in love.
05:09You wouldn't understand.
05:12Just because I'm German doesn't mean I don't have emotions.
05:15It's okay.
05:16It's okay because if you two are truly in love, then that just makes the story that much stronger.
05:22No, no, no, no, no, no.
05:24This is a good thing.
05:26Yeah.
05:27The show must go on.
05:30Must it, though?
05:32Sometimes coupling, the showmance, can be a good thing.
05:35Anthony Ramos and Jasmine Cephas Jones in my show, they're a wonderful couple.
05:38But as we've seen many times on set, the horizontal mambo or horizontal hula, as we say in the islands,
05:46can be very, very dangerous.
05:47And then, you know, you've got to be careful.
05:49There's a reason they call Lombada the forbidden dance.
05:52We're free to have anything about the dance.
05:54All right.
05:55All right.
05:55All right, everyone.
05:56All right.
05:56Calm down.
05:57Now, I know you're all upset for a variety of justifiable reasons, but we have a show to perform tomorrow.
06:03The dance is a total mess.
06:04Yeah, the music is a nightmare.
06:06I have to go to the bathroom.
06:07Okay.
06:08All right.
06:08And Natalie, Ezra, less than 48 hours ago, you two were madly in love.
06:13What the hell happened?
06:14I don't know.
06:15Ask her.
06:16Ask him.
06:17Awkward.
06:18Now, everyone, you know, we've all come together and we've all worked so hard.
06:21And sure, some of us have been crying alone in our offices more than we'd like to admit.
06:25But we have an audience that's going to be here tomorrow.
06:28And we have a duty to them.
06:30Doesn't that mean anything to any of you?
06:33Kiss my ass, mother f***er.
06:35You are all right.
06:36Okay.
06:36All right.
06:38All right.
06:39All right.
06:39All right.
06:39Fine.
06:41Astronauts!
06:42No!
06:42Everyone out!
06:44Clear the stage!
06:45Wait.
06:45No, no, no.
06:46Not you.
06:46And not you.
06:47Come on, you two.
06:47Natalie, Ezra.
06:49Now, you two.
06:50I need you two to come together.
06:52All right.
06:53Now, whatever's wrong, just promise me you'll get through opening night.
06:58All right.
06:59But I can't tell you what's going to happen after.
07:02I could.
07:03Okay.
07:04All right.
07:05Gorosh.
07:06Get out of here.
07:11Oh, you guys deliver liquor now, right?
07:15Oh, thank God.
07:16All the rum.
07:17All of it.
07:18You know, there are very few things in this world that are greater than bringing to life
07:24the story of a marginalized group of people, like millennials.
07:30The night before opening night, it always feels like you're on the precipice of doom.
07:34But then every time, like a miracle, it always comes together.
07:51Critics are falling for Moana.
07:54I am still falling!
07:56It's truly entertaining, sensational, exciting.
07:59USA Today declares Moana rules.
08:02I just did that.
08:03Disney's Moana.
08:04Now in 3D.
08:05Rated PG.
08:08We'll be right back.
