Pokémon Live: How Pikachu Nearly Took Broadway | The Art of Failure
This is a documentary that has been nearly a year in the making. Jonii and Jamie are joined by actors Jesse Nager and Patrick Frankfort, along with years' worth of archival footage and interviews, for this look at Pokémon Live - an officially Nintendo-sanctioned Pokémon musical - and how it not only seeped into obscurity but nearly became lost to time. This is the story of Pokémon Live: The Lost Musical.
Presented by Jonii Vee and Jamie D. Elms. This documentary actually has a companion video over on Jonii's channel, which will be linked in the pinned comment.
