Comedy training centers/theaters and their silly villain antics can seem alluring at first - but deep down, they're just dirty, thieving capitalists with their mind on their money and their money on their mind. It's high time we accept that villains come in all shapes and sizes. And, you guessed it! Institutions.
So go ahead, take a look and see if you can figure out which disney villain is which comedy institution. The winner gets a no expense paid trip to perform their material in Flint, Michigan.

URSULA
This institution will pretend to be your friend only to steal your greatest talents. "Poor Unfortunate Souls. So dumb, They work for free."
URSULA runs the show with her snake like minions. She'll manipulate you, berate you, and she'll surely steal - YOUR VOICE!
Don't bother trying to start your own classes, theater, or side business. Don't THINK about making any money - She'll need everything that comes in for that new 6 million dollar renovation on her underwater lair. Don't bother asking to be paid for your talents - just KEEP SINGING. Don't disagree with her or she'll turn you into one of those sad little creatures. But -- don't underestimate the power of "body language" since this institution won't be standing up for your fundamental rights anytime soon.

GASTON
This institution is brawny, flashy, and comes with a lot of comedy muscle. After all "no one's slick like Gaston". Gaston would never admit to doing anything wrong or having bad people working for him. Not with that suave exterior. The men and the women are happy to cover for Gaston. Gaston parades around town, flexing his white male industry muscles and powers to get you one of 12-15 spots on that TV show. But oh, wait, GASTON's popularity means he's got almost 4,000 students at any given time - So don't hold your breath on getting one of those spots. But hold up your wallets! ( at $300 a pop with 4,000 students- that's what -- $1,200,000 each class session?). With that kind of money -- you'd think Gaston would be able to offer up more jobs for lowly LeFous. And more pay? And that's not even counting Gaston's theater revenue, touring revenues, and other business entities. I mean- you saw his performance at the bar! Gaston probably uses the $1,200,000 alone just to keep those teeth whitened. Meanwhile, his chorus guys (yeah, it's mostly guys) only make peanuts to write and perform all the material. My What a guy, that Gaston!

SCAR
This institution was born from the outcast. The underdog king of the jungle institution realized "I'm surrounded by idiots". This institution boasts individuality - standing out from the pack - yet still manages to dip its paws into pride rock to take advantage of resources. This villanous lion's den is notorious for gossip, drama, back biting and SCAR written books with out dated misogynistic rhetoric about how women are just "making it up" when sexism takes place.I know it sounds sordid But you'll be rewarded When at last he is given his dues! And injustice deliciously squared Be prepared!

GOVERNOR RATCLIFFE
This institution poses as one with good intentions just like that of the "governor". Independent spaces, festivals, and fun. But beware! Underneath that power lies the evil head who is a man known for abusing his powers. Ratcliffe is oppressing women and getting away with it behind that chubby smirk, hiding his true colors in dark corners, all while he rides his horse drawn chariot across town. Whenever he starts up a new class, show, festival, or coaching session - he finds the young girls and says "Mine, boys, mine ev'ry student" And "dig, boys, dig 'til ya drop"
Grab a pick, boys
Quick, boys
Shove in a shovel
Uncover those lovely
Victims that sparkle and shine
These young, impressionable women are gold and it's mine, mine, mine!
