Great casting for the kids

They can all sing and act well, and look like siblings! Especially Liesl, Louisa and Freiderik, and Gretl, Marta and Kurt.

The Kurt could play Michael in Billy Elliot.

I thought they were all awful. Out of tune all the way through and no acting chops at all. And yes I give them "props" for trying this live but some things are just not meant for television. It was too obvious they were acting.

Horrible acting. Almost embarrassing.

well said. It was like watching a school play.

Peyton Ella, the girl who played Gretyl, was really bad. Definitely the weak link of the cast.
