Kerry Butler is Broadway's Amy Adams. Constantly overlooked but still delivering great performances.

She’s the same age bracket as Tina Fey? I’m shooketh!
Tina Fey is gorgeous too
She’s the same age as Winona Ryder who was Lydia in the movie
you’ll never know what i replied
Izzy.Grande_ “It’s Sky same age as Winona at the time, she went that old when she played lydia in the movie.” Recorded for prosperity. And yes, I got too much time on my hands, and so do you. We’ve all been quarantined...
piecesofme you absolute rebel
Now I'm not the first to say this, BUT Kerry Butler and Barbara Maitland are the same exact person and I love it
A rat problem at Les Mis?
1. That’s tea
2. Somehow fitting considering the plot/time period
I’m seeing beetlejuice this Friday and I’m so excited to see her!!
Edit: so I saw it.....OMG IT WAS SO AMAZING!!! It was so hilarious and the effects were out of this world and yes Kerry was there and she was the best and even though she didn’t come to the stage door, I’m still happy I got to see her and hopefully I can meet her the next time I go!!
But I did get to meet Dana and Presley at the stage door and they were the sweetest people ever and Dana even complimented my nails!!!
So yeah 12/10 if you haven’t seen the show PLEASE SEE IT. My mini rant is now over.
I might go see it if I can convince my parents to go to New York
I’ve seen it.
You’ll love it!!!
it’s AMAZING. you’ll love it!!
its the best musical i have ever see youll love it!!!
I adooore her, I've been following her work since bat boy. when I heard she was in beetlejuice I was so ecstatic! she's a living disney princess!
Aylie Honestly... if she wants to play Rapunzel in a Tangled musical, I will champion her. She is the sweetest and sunniest lady.
Took the words right from me! Glad to see I'm not the only one who saw Beetlejuice because of Kerry and/or Bat Boy!
“i’m not like famous or anything” um YES YOU ARE QUEEN
Kerry Butler is an actual angel
Reminder That I Have Played All Your Dream Roles: A Kerry Butler Video 😂 real talk, though, she nails them all.
Omg Omg 😱 I was at the show we’re Kerry was stuck levitating
Meme_Queen wow I was there when she ripped her dress
@@thinmints4life Holy Heck! How did she play it off? What did she do after?
Meme_Queen do you know why they had to stop the show that day?
Abby, they had to stop the show when they were doing the seance of Adam and Barbra
Live Love Theater , lol
I met her at the stage door when I went to Beetlejuice and she was so nice 😊
I saw it last week as part of a school theatre trip and I’m so sad that we didn’t get to go to the stage door and meet them. They all seem super cool and nice!
@@natd602 What kind of school do you go to that can afford going to Beetlejuice?
I’ve been a fan of her since I was 9, and I finally got to meet her after Mean Girls. She’s literally the nicest person, and she made a point of talking with everyone as long as she could. So sweet!
In 2016 I invited her to see hairspray the musical school edition she replied and she said that she hoped to come see it but she was on the rehearsal of Disaster the musical so then she didn’t come but she watched a live stream of it and she enjoyed it !!
Corona Lisa Aww she is the sweetest
@MonaCher Lisa how did you contact her?
Obsession of Love Well I contact her from Twitter and she replied and then she gave me her email in case she book some tickets to go see it and then one of my friends contact her agent just to make sure she was going and that’s how I did it. But when she couldn’t go I contact Mary Bond Davis and she actually came !! she played Motormouth Maybelle She’s the original ! From broadway !! (I can’t believe Kerry actually replied to me lol)
Y’all, if you’ve ever met Kerry, you’ll know she’s an actual angel. She is the sweetest person ever.
are you pan ace too? ajauatyqcgcaxvaxxfdgaxqa
There NEEDS to be more of these
she has the best resume oh my god
I was there when her dress ripped open 😂
Peanut Butter me too
@@thinmints4life how did it rip? Lmao
Mateo Kunzer her character wears a wrap dress, and she was jumping around a lot and her boob fell out of the dress(it was covered, but still). It wasn’t much a rip just more of a costume malfunction, or at least that’s what I saw. I was in the second row isle seat on the right and could see pretty clearly.
@@peanutbutter4612 omg thats amazing lmao
No mishaps from Disaster! ?
That's ironic
Pretty much any performance of that show could count as a mishap
@@theatrefreak25 i can't tell if you mean that in a good way or a bad way
i met her and she is honestly the sweetest soul 🥺
“HE WENT DUUUN DU-“
kerry is so kind and pure I love her so much
KERRY IS OUR QUEEN
I think I can officially say I'm a Kerry Butler Stan omg
And she's only won one award cmon
I want one of these with Aaron Tveit!
YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES
kerry is such a gem
a..jewel! :)
not to be dramatic or anything, but i would literally die for her.
She is a very very sweet person. everyone in Beetlejuice is. Every comment I do on their Instaham they like it. I'm am open book telling them who I am and why both the movie and musical means to me, Kerry her said I hope everything gets better for you. She and the cast are amazing people. I send them all the most positive vibes and support in their whole lives.
shes such a broadway legend
OMG I WAS THERE THE SHOW WHERE THE DRESS RIPPED
Really?!!!!! That's crazy! What was it like?
Kerry Butler is the sweetest person ever you can't change my mind
Omg Kerry is the person who would see a random bug in her house, not freak out and try and kill it but try and hug it that’s how sweet she is
SHES ALMOST 50?? she looks 30 omg!!
When she said, “Mouse poop on my makeup,” the “EW!!!!” that came out of my mouth would’ve made Alexis Rose of Schitt’s Creek so proud.
The only mishap I noticed when I saw Beetlejuice was that one of the ensemble member’s mic malfunctioned during a scene where they had some lines and needed to sing. I think the mic just completely died. When they came back out it was working again so props to crew for fixing it on the spot!
She's so pure and adorable, such a great roll model 🥺
Kerry is 1st class, that voice is a gift...even when she talks!
the fact that kerry has only won ONE AWARD keeps me up at night
you have no soul if you don’t love Kerry butler.
I hope Laura Bell Bundy does a video like this, I'd love to hear her stories too!!
I went to see beetlejuice because Kerry Butler is my Idol and when Barbara walked on stage I was sad because it was the understudy but she still did a fantastic job!
Hi I’m a huge fan and I was supposed to see beetle juice at the winter garden over the week of easter so me and my sister preformed it for my family. I cry when I hear the songs because I’m so sad I missed it and it’s not coming back.
Ugh! I love her! She is so underrated in Broadway
I love her so much lol she's so sweet
I really enjoyed this! I got to see her in Bat Boy, Hairspray and Little Shop of Horrors. Big regret that I missed Xanadu!
kerry was my #1 most listened to artist on spotify in 2019!!
mine was cavetown
thats cool! mine was barret wilbert weed
Kerry Butler is the best
My schools doing Xanadu this year and so I’m now super obsessed with Kerry😅
I absolutely LOVE Xanadu and she is my FAVORITE Clío.
i lovvvvedddddd her in Mean Girls!!!!!! and i just saw her in beetlejuice she was AMAZING!!!
She is human sunshine
Damn, that's one resume and a half!
Ahhhhhh I met her she was so sweet!
I love how excited she gets when she tells her stories. You can really tell how much she loves her job :)
She’s just the sweetest ❤️
The Beauty & the Beast mishap was the funniest haha Kerry’s so cute 💕
"I'm not famous or anything" Ohhh Kerry, you are so modest and so unaware
I saw her in hair spray and she was amazing.
Kerry is everything 😭
There was one backstage video where Kerry was watering her plant and singing Little Fall Of Rain from Les Mis to the plants
She literally a gift from heaven 🥺❤️
Kerry has had an amazing career so far! what a dream
WHEN I WAS LITTLE I WENT TO WATCH BELLE AND I DID NOT KNOW KERRY WAS BELLE BC RN KERRY IS MY FAVE PERSON
I’ve met her before, and I can say without a doubt that she is literally such a sweetheart.
i. love. her.
Kerry Butler is a national treasure
She’s so awesome and she’s so lucky she’s gotten to play so many different roles
Kerry butler is the core of broadway😂
for a moment I misheard her when she said her first Broadway productions was HAIRSPRAY. I thought she said her first show was HAIR.
It caught my ear immediately thinking,
"Wow! Great Show IMO. But for your very first part on BROADWAY with your first week or month nerves and or anxiety likely higher than a normal show and probably performing in front of the largest audience you've ever seen and you have to
Go old there and do a scene naked. Lmao
I’m convinced that Kerry Butler is the gorgeously kind X-Gen momma of Broadway and Patti LuPone is just above her.
What an angel
the most genuine and nicest gal that has ever walked this planet
SHE WAS IN SO MANY SHOWS!!!!
love u kerry ur my favorite broadway performer
this video makes me happy
I need her skincare routine ASAP
yes love my girl kerry butler!!
i'm going to nyc with my musical theatre class in may, and we're seeing beetlejuice! all i need is to meet and talk with kerry and my life is complete
Such an awesome person Kerry is!
She was so good in all of these! Catch me if you can is my favorite!
I can't believe I get to play the same part as her (I'm kira/clio in Xanadu) it's just community theater but she's just iconic
Kerry’s hands the entire time: 👆👇🤛🤜🤏👌🤘🤚🤲✊
She should play elle form legally blonde! She just has the perfect personality
she actually did the early stage of production as Elle and did all the demos for the songs. you can find her sing the original songs like “so much better” on youtube and hear it in the original key
@@angelikajoy5673 just to add on, so much better used to be a step higher than it's sung normally
Kerry butler is my favorite actor in little shop of horrors
she is such an angel. how does someone this wholesome even exist???
Oh my god I love her so much 😭
She's adorable, and the most likable person you could ever meet
I didn't know that she played belle. She is my favorite Disney princess! 😍
I like how she kind of acts out everything. The music, the sound effects, lots of hand movements....
She’s such a gem
I saw her at the stage door and she was the nicest kindest human ever!
this woman has had a CAREER
Omg imagine having a career like that - she’s done so much it’s insane!!!!! I aspire to be like you Kerry!
She will always be my broadway Kira.
