Prodcut Description: [More Information ...]
Clark Gesner's musicalization of Charles Schulz's "Peanuts" comic strips was a hit off-Broadway in 1967 and on Broadway in 1999. This video presents 49 minutes of the show, combining the familiar look of "Peanuts" animated television specials with Gesner's charming skits and songs, including the title tune, Snoopy's ode to eating "Suppertime," the Beethoven adaptation "Schroeder," the baseball yarn "T-E-A-M," and the sweet-as-a-warm-puppy anthem "Happiness." It should be noted that Gesner's clever score, while inspired by the actual strips, is aimed at a slightly older viewing audience than are most "Peanuts" videos, and that these young voices occasionally strain to keep up with its demands. Still, it's solid entertainment, and for anyone who performed the show in school and wishes there were a stage performance recorded on video, this is the next best thing. --David Horiuchi

A Classic
You would love this musical created just for diehard Peanuts fans. I bought this for my sons to enjoy and how much Charlie Brown brought enjoyment to me all these years. should stay ON broadway
We rented this for our 5-year old niece from the library, as she likes the peanuts cartoons (race for your life, a boy named charlie brown, Great pumpkin, easter beagle, etc). I had no idea it was a broadway musical. My niece just sat there staring at the TV, chagrined. A few minutes passed and it couldn't even hold her attention anymore. I gave it an honest try but after 15 grueling and torturous minutes of cheesy song numbers and smarmy antics, I turned it off - my niece didn't even protest (normally she would throw a fit).
I'll admit part of it was my fault, as I assumed it was a plot-driven cartoon like all the others. But hearing the peanuts gang belt out 'heartfelt' tunes like they were in a junior high talent show just didn't feel right - it just didn't seem to fit their characters.
Yes I am aware that there have been various musicals, a couple of which I've seen ("Flash Beagle" at Knotts, as well as "Snoopy" on stage) - none of them really did it for me (I saw these when I was younger).
This posting is mainly a warning to Peanuts purists. If you like Broadway (not just musicals, but BROADWAY), then this cartoon may be for you. However, if you hate Broadway (or musicals in general), then under no circumstances should you buy or even attempt to watch this movie! Good Family Fun
Very cute! We'd just seen the play when I got this for my son. He loves it and watches it several times a week. A must have for any child that loves the Peanuts characters and musicals! Woof,Boom!
This is one of my favorites,I love Schroder,You're a Good Man,Charlie Brown and My Blanket and Me.I remember when I was a Freshman in high school,my Choir class,Well Choarle[sp] mostly Seniors[Charlie Brown,Lucy,Sally,],2 juniors[Shroeder] and ? and 1 Sophomore[Peppermint Patty] and 1 Freshman[Linus] put on You're a Good Man,Charlie Brown. I was going to see it that night,but a had a terrible headache. Love it.
You are a good man, charlie Brown, is the best peanuts show I've ever seen. It is also a great musical.  |
