I think I missed my chance to see Emily as Jane Doe 🥲
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE OPENING SONG LIKE THE “Oooh~” NOISE WITH THE MUSIC GIVES OFF THE WEIRD VIBES OF THE MUSICAL AND I LOVE IT
God, I wish the recording of these cast exist somewhere. I'm dying to watch it
I've been waiting to see this show since I heard the cast recording in 2008. As soon as I heard it was coming to the U.S., I bought my ticket and booked my flight. I can't wait!
Gosh I'm so excited for this!!! Been in love with this show for years but always on the wrong side of the Atlantic - so glad that it's finally here! :D
And it got the Tony for Choreography this past Sunday!!
Yeahhh get it Ocean 👏 (she's a narcissist and I hate + love her)
Music I love hear!
🇬🇧❤️
Rest In Peace, John Beasley.
John Cardoza - mark my words, you’re going places buddy. STUNNING VOICE
I love this and have watched it a few times and will watch it again.
It was the best play I have EVER SEEN
❤
I saw this play yesterday 5/22/24 ...I loved every minute. The cast was very in sync. You could see they all loved what they were doing. What you did not see (but heard) was the orchestra...The score of this musical is unbelievable. I could hear and feel every musical note played by the musicians. I was so happy they brought the orchestra front and center at the end...Wonderful play, BRAVO!
Saw it, loved it!
Did you say horse hair? What is that? Did you sew the neckband to the edge that you've sewn? Or the cut edge? How did you sew the neckband on? It went fast and there were no close-ups. :/
This is fabulous.
i know that guy fom the crown who plays marten
They sound amazing!
I will be there 😊
You are the best ❤😊😂❤
Got lost at the under and over. Video went too fast and is too low res. Bummer.
what kind of fabric is this
Mr. Strathairn, From Poland, please accept my (our) humble thanks.
This was the most stunning show I have ever seen, I wish it was still showing. It made me feel so alive! It was beautiful.
thank you so much
Who else loves the ride the cyclone?
looks great!
Hi I’m thinking of using this tutorial but I want the edge of the collar to be a different colour so I was thinking of using bias tape would I stick it on the same time as the horsehair braid or would I attach it separately?
Cried the whole time
so hyped for this
proper funny
Just got tickets!!! WOOOOO!!!
Very interested to see how they’re gonna work John Wayne Gacy jr into this
I was hoping for a comment about JWGJR haha
They did it wonderfully! So the context in which they transitioned into a lot of the songs was through the medium of people sharing stories around a campfire so it didn’t seem like such a nonsequitir when all of a sudden there was a clown doing ballet on stage lmao
GOD BLESS YOU ❤ 😍 💖 ❣ 💕 💘 ❤❤❤❤❤ 🎉🎉🎉WONDERFUL 😊
So this is going to win the tony awards this year right? RIGHT?
FANTASTIC ON BROADWAY!!! Cried the whole time ❤
I wanna go so bad!! Yay Sufjan, love this album
So there are 3 differents sets of actors for the 3 different phases of their lives?
yup
Awesome production from such a talented cast!
Saw this last week. Epic. Excellent production, gory story. Everybody dies!
Do you remember how long it was by chance?
I'm not going to be able to sit through this without balling my eyes out. I hope they film it for streaming because I don't want to lose it in the theatre.
Ha😅 same
YAYYYYY
It is wonderful.
Oh shit, I need to see this
Update, it was great!
FINALLY :’)
OMG
YAY
I would love to watch the full thing 😔
RIP John Beasley
