I know what day it is, but I still thought I was having a psychotic break watching that!

I imagine they picked up a few cosplayers to help out, and what amazing costumes!

I’d watch it.

Even getting together a short clip like that probably took a decent amount of effort, well done! Very enjoyable and a good laugh.

I'm hoping they do a behind the scenes for it, a lot of effort went into this for a gag.

There appears to be behind the scenes footage on Warhammer+

Callin it: an European opera company sees it, and thinks it can do better than that April Fool's joke. How hard can it be to do one based on Cairn?(and before anyone makes a reply: escape rooms and a series of children's books)

This is a missed opportunity to cast Hugh Jackman in the lead as he's great in both scifi genre and musicals. Shame, GW! Shame!

I had a look on Warhammer TV and it wasn’t leaping out at me?

Okay, this is a quality April Fools joke.

Starfleet Academy was an April Fools Day joke?

They fooled me! I thought that was a real show.

There is a slight uncanny valley quality to the dancers but maybe I am imagining it and just see AI everywhere now. Is the "making of" thing for real or another part of the joke?

I'd rather go see this than spend US$200 on tickets to Shen Yun. Which my wife is making us go to, despite my earlier stated dislike.
At least we skipped out on the almost US$400 on tickets for the touring company of Lion King.

ETA: They previewed that life-sized tactical rock a year ago. Why haven't we seen one of the UTubbers making one?

Can you imaging being a trained actor/singer and getting called in to do this as one of the background performers?
What a bizarre set of cues they must have been going off.

This was top notch.

Yes. The UK isn’t actually allowed to embrace the silliness of Eurovision.

Just googled.

Oh dear.

Let’s just do Deirdre’s A Slag. Or even Alec’s Gone.
