Summary[]
We're so pleased to finally share that we've been creating a web series with Broadway legend, Halpert Evans! Working with Halpert was an absolute dream, and we think you'll agree that he was a HUGE influence on all things StarKid. Join Halpert as he performs some of the most iconic songs from his long and illustrious career.
Development[]
Movies, Musicals, & Me was initially created as a comedy show: Movies, Musicals, and Me: An Evening with Me, Halpert Evans which was performed at the StarKid Summer Season in 2016. It was later adapted into a web series.
The series was created by Esther Fallick, Clark Baxtresser, Pierce Siebers, Nick Lang and Brian Holden.[1] It is set in a world where every movie ever has become a Broadway musical. The series is presented as a web version of Broadway superstar Halpert Evans' "Broadway stage revue" of the same name, where he performs some of the most iconic songs from his illustrious career, along with piano accompanist Courtney and guest star interviews from colleagues and fans.
It was filmed at the YouTube space in Los Angeles. After it was revealed that the character of Courtney is an unpaid intern, many viewers started to use the hashtag "PayCourtney" in the comments. This prompted the producers to create a bonus scene in the credits of the final episode, in which Courtney receives $45 from Halpert.
