Ratatouille: The TikTok Musical
Inspired by numerous Tiktok Disney films, let’s say with a good appetite for ratatouille (yes, you read that right).
Even the people in charge of Tik Tok were impressed when Lizzy Hale said, “In one of the most unique trends we’ve ever seen on the platform, the TikTok community has brought musical fans together in one of the biggest ways Broadway has seen this year, bringing the musical fan together in a way we haven’t seen in years. Ratatouille will feature incredible Broadway stars, with all donations going to the Actors Fund. No casting has been confirmed yet, but so far we know some of his creatives, including the original cast, as well as some new ones. Remy the rat will be in every rat’s dream come 2021, and he’s not the only one.
It will be available for streaming in January 2021 and it is available to stream on the TikTok platform from January 1, 2021 to January 31, 2020.
