Hi everyone - just wanted to take a quick moment to thank you all - I do love this video and this performance as much as you all do - it is, in my opinion, the greatest performance at any Tony Awards.
I so regret not having seen GGLAM on or off Broadway, and when I do get to finally watch my first Broadway musical, this will have contributed a large part to my musical obsession!
I never would have imagined that a bored teenager downloading his favourite performance from the 2014 Tonys would have led to this video being watched over 2 million times!! (Although I do think that about 500,000 of those views may have just come from me.) I randomly re-uploaded the video when it was taken down (or rather, geoblocked for those outside the US), and am glad it brings all of you as much joy as it brings me.
Can we talk about how he was practically doing gymnastics and still hit every note on point?! He was halfway to the ground and he STILL sounded angelic!!
It's hard to remember that they can't see each other when the doors are closed and just know their cues so well they can still hit the choreography perfectly
The whole performance was amazing, but lets face it... The level of salt by which Sibella throws her purse at the door is the best part of this whole thing
this using the medium of musical theatre to the maximum. dramatic irony and comedy mixed with over the top sequenced choreography, impossibly melodic, catchy, and rhythmic music and lyrics with wonderful costuming and use of the stage. it's a shame it's not running on broadway anymore.
Bryce's frustrated jumping up and down as he says "BE JUST A MOMENT!!!" cracks me up every time:-). Wonderful performance!!! And I just love Jefferson Mays!!!
I love how Sibella is labeled as the mistress when she's the one married and Monty isn't yet. Like let's be real, Monty is the mistress in this situation
What dazzles me the most is how everything is on beat. The screams, the swoons, the fact she threw the purse and it hit the door in time with the music, the constant slamming of the doors in time. Brilliant.
This whole performance is incredible, but I'm surprised nobody's pointed out how at 4:20 Sibella threw her purse at the door so it hit perfectly in time with the "OH" from Monty!
Literally, Lauren Worsham (Phoebe) does the cutest little things, i.e. the little giggles, etc.... Even from only watching this clip, you can see what kind of characters they all play. Great character development.
