New Ratatouille Tik Tok Musical to Premier January 1, 2021

Fans created a Ratatouille musical on Tik Tok. Read on to find out more!

The Covid-19 lockdown really brought out the creativity in some folks! A couple of talented Tik Tok users made songs inspired by Disney/Pixar favorite Ratatouille.

Now, the musical has caught the attention of Broadway!

Original Songs by Fans

Back in August 2020, Tik Tok user Em_Jaccs uploaded an acapella ode to Remy the rat.

♬ Ode to Remy – Em Jaccs

While it wasn’t her first song inspired by a Disney character, it was the one that gained traction on the social media site.

Shortly thereafter in October 2020, composer Daniel Mertzlufft built on Emily’s original song, adding more vocals and an instrumental backing.

Soon, other Tik Tok users chimed in with their own Ratatouille inspired songs and a social media phenomena was born!

Broadway Takes Notice

Their collective effort, which now includes set designs, puppetry and costumes, caught the eye of Seaview productions, a theater and film production company.

Seaview is partnering with the Tik Tok users, as well as well-known Broadway actors in order to produce a one-time live stream event.

Proceeds from the ticket sales benefit the Actor’s Fund, a non-profit to benefit out of work performers and crew.
