He was my least favorite Evan that I've seen. His upper register is just not that strong. All of his high notes were so strained it was horrible to listen to. Good actor but vocally just not strong enough for Evan. He probably should have been an understudy.
Knowing that Andrew won this whole thing and was picked to star in Dear Evan Hansen, when he starting singing I was like "oh he's pretty good" then once the boys circled around him and he threw out that absolutely spotless riff I was like :o
It was actually my school haha. We're the local performing arts school so we usually push the envelope and our admin is more allowing. We also did RENT a couple years ago and we were the school to premiere Miss Saigon for high schools
No tea, no shade but it was NOT good. The problem was they have Mormon donors, so they censored the Hell out of the show which was such a problem for Eddie’s character. He literally hardly swore. I mean, the kids did the best that they could but also Rose was perfectly skinny and not at all ‘ugly?’ Like it made no sense for her to be at a Dogfight... Like I said: the kids did a good job but overall it just wasn’t the right school for LVA.
amanda kemmerer I was cast as him in our shows version of it, and to be honest, it was kind of hard to do, because he’s such a prick, lmfao, and I’m very... not, I guess lol, but it was so much fun to get to do that!
Ginny Weasley First Quasimodo won best actor at our Tommy Tunes and he was honestly phenomenal. He was definitely sick here or maybe lost his voice because his performance at our awards was deserving of best actor without a doubt.
I’ve known mark since kindergarten and have grown up with him until he graduated last year. I’m a stage manager and I always knew he was talented but I didn’t understand the extent of it until recently because he was always right there. If this video proved anything it’s how much I’ve taken him for granted. Seeing him among other top competitors and standing out... I am eternally proud.
OH MY WORD, Jean Valjean goes after Snoopy and sings "pretend I do not know his agony" after Snoopy sang about wanting food (Jean Valjean's family was starving at one point), I'm DYING 😂😂😂
@@patriciajune5 that also happened with the Baker from Into the Woods once. It's fairly typical for them to put people playing the same roles in one group.
Also, Garret Morris is really great too, he seems to have a bit of trouble on the high notes but he definetly nails the role of Quasimodo, giving it his heart and passion, and he has amazing vibratio.
Commenting two years later to say Jeremy (Snoopy) is under appreciated he was fantastic even though his song is arguably less of a show off number. The energy and those vocal growls man.
Andrew is going to be such a star. I simply cannot wait to see his future endeavors! Wonderful voice, acting, and charisma. And of course they’re all wonderfully talented!
all the comments about Andrew and Dear Evan Hansen aged _so_ well.
HOW DID EVERYONE HERE PREDICT THE ANDREW CASTING FOR DEAR EVAN HANSEN
We been knew
the vIBRATO ON ANDREW FELDMAN. Dear Evan Hansen casting directors or whomever take notice
this comment aged well
Well, it's your lucky day because he just got cast as the new Evan Hansen and will start performances at the end of January 2019
Katie O'Connor I-
max hope like fine wine

oK but the dude who played Pippin snatched me with the riffs
why is no one talking about pippin’s riff? he had such stage presence!!
YESSS ACTUALLY THO KINDA WISH HE WAS AT LEAST A FINALIST
EXACTLY
Riff was amazing; too bad the first note on "have" was flat. But his tone on his long notes cleared my acne.
2:27 FLAAaAaAâAaäÆàÁÆYYYYY

I'm sorry but the riffs in Corner of the Sky made me spit my drink out
i freaking know right. i was caught offguard. like dang!!
Sarah Lovett RIGHT
Haha same😂🧐 if you don't know the song it wil be beautiful though😉
@Yeetie Wheatie No Pippin, the second guy
Rightttttt goosebumps all over!!
Can you imagine Andrew Feldman singing Waving Through A Window I would lose my mind.
this aged well
Kenny Brian And now we get to!
When I saw him in Dear Evan Hansen, the applause after that song went for 5 minutes
I have witnessed it all live!
Kenny Brian it’s amazing, i’m so lucky to have heard it live
okay can we just talk about the fact that a high school did dogfight
Claire Riley bahahaha my EXACT thoughts!
My county had one last year as well
My high school premiered it, had to cut every f bomb
It was actually my school haha. We're the local performing arts school so we usually push the envelope and our admin is more allowing. We also did RENT a couple years ago and we were the school to premiere Miss Saigon for high schools

get someone to look at you the way Andrew Barth Feldman looks at everyone
Morgan Baily true
That transition from Valjean to Topher I'm s c r e a m i n g
The switch between snoopy and jean val jean was HILARIOUS
yesss!!
LMAOO
ummmm who gave you the right to kill that riff in Goodbye???????
Are we just about to sleep on snoopy?? He was insane! And his background facial expressions were great!
so good!!!
Honk shoo
Snoopy is not getting the credit he deserves. Not gonna lie bout that.
facts
Poor First Quasi. He was probably sick
samisntalesbian When he sang i felt the pain. He was for sure sickkkk
i know! and you can TELL that he is a really good singer
That was so painful to watch, I felt so bad for him
i had something similar happen to me. I had a performance and ended up having someone else sing my solo because I would have a coughing fit
andrew feldman is literally ben fankhauser and ben platt in one person
The Prince from Once Upon A Mattress gives BIG Gaston vibes.
agreed
Sir Harry had basically the same vibes as Gaston. He blames his GF for getting pregnant with his kid lmao
amanda kemmerer I was cast as him in our shows version of it, and to be honest, it was kind of hard to do, because he’s such a prick, lmfao, and I’m very... not, I guess lol, but it was so much fun to get to do that!
Andrew Feldman is hot. Just gonna put that out there.
hey aren’t you also a Jimmy’s nominee???
J. J. Yes I am hahahahaha
I agree.
why am i just seeing this
First Quasi sounds like he may have been sick. That's unfortunate timing.
AWorldWithoutTenors He was definitely sick. I’ve worked with him and i know he has an outstanding voice.
Holy shit that second Quasimodo was fantastic. That is not an easy song to sing. Everyone did great!
Ginny Weasley he's amazing,, I'm apart of his local awards program and god he's amazing
Ginny Weasley First Quasimodo won best actor at our Tommy Tunes and he was honestly phenomenal. He was definitely sick here or maybe lost his voice because his performance at our awards was deserving of best actor without a doubt.
Ginny Weasley IKR
Mark had to be my fave too.... mainly cause i know him😂
I’ve known mark since kindergarten and have grown up with him until he graduated last year. I’m a stage manager and I always knew he was talented but I didn’t understand the extent of it until recently because he was always right there. If this video proved anything it’s how much I’ve taken him for granted. Seeing him among other top competitors and standing out... I am eternally proud.
Can we appreciate Grasshopper’s costume and riffs?
OH MY WORD, Jean Valjean goes after Snoopy and sings "pretend I do not know his agony" after Snoopy sang about wanting food (Jean Valjean's family was starving at one point), I'm DYING 😂😂😂
Andrew Feltman reminds me of Ben Fankhauser for some reason. I think some of his runs remind me of Ben haha.
Anne van Bruggen my exact thoughts!!!
Anne van Bruggen EXACTLY
He's like a mix of Ben Platt and Ben Fankhauser.
he’s actually gonna play evan starting late January 2019
Anne van Bruggen go and look it up the POOR gUyS hEaD is sPiNNinG
second quasimodo crushed it omg
Maddy Redmond yeah mark rocks
Andrew has the perfect voice for evan hansen 😍
this comment aged well
I just noticed that Riley, the boy who played the grasshopper, is on mini stilts. That's impressive.
the grasshopper and snoopy were EXCELLENT
Snoopy's facial expressions through everyone else's performance is PRICELESS. Love this guy.
UMM.. just passed out after hearing that amazing RIFF from Andrew at 3:21. SO CLEAN. BRAVA dude. BRAVAAA👏🏼👏🏼
The producers of Dear Evan Hanson said THAT was the moment when they started to think he could handle playing Evan
Sir Harry is such a strange role to be nominated for.
omg but the high notes in made of stone were amazing
Sophia Bouzid thanks on his behalf
half the comments are abt andrew and how he should be evan hansen... our prayers have been answered
Why did they put two Quasimodo's in the same group??? That's just mean
Kitty on Pointe oh one year one whole group there was 5 Millie’s nominated for award so they all perform one song and that’s it
@@patriciajune5 that also happened with the Baker from Into the Woods once. It's fairly typical for them to put people playing the same roles in one group.
Patricia Sigmond what year was that?
the BEST was the dueling sweeny todds the year before.
@@patriciajune5 I actually really loved that one!
Y’all are sleeping on snoopy so hard omg he’s amazing
Jaylin Rae yeah I love his performance
the pippin has me QUAKING
Why is no one talking about the grasshopper?? He sounded so good!
Grasshopper was fantastic!
Gabrielle Smith i agree 110%
YES!!
Yes he's amazing
Snoopy blew it out of the park why is everyone sleeping on him
Can Ben Fankhauser and Andrew Barth Feldman get together and just make a video of them doing a literal "riff off"? k thx!!
There’s not that many high schools that will do Dogfight or Les Mis. Props to them for taking risks!
more like not every high school can afford the rights. flashy musical = well funded drama dept = stage parents = talented, well trained kids
The Beebz yeah the guy that played Valjean is from my awards and he went to a heavily funded performing arts school
Topher’s little who am I at the beginning of his song was so cute
It’s hard to believe, but Andrew’s just a sophomore (now junior). He’s insane!
Snoopy brought the energy on this one, big time. Killer stage presence and tone! 10/10
I wish the Tonys would do this
JEAN VALJEAN KILLING IT OVER HERE
damn they all killed but the last two though their timing could not be more perfect
Laughton Berry is one of the greatest singers I’ve ever heard, stop sleeping on him. He is outstanding.
Also, Garret Morris is really great too, he seems to have a bit of trouble on the high notes but he definetly nails the role of Quasimodo, giving it his heart and passion, and he has amazing vibratio.
yes!! i totally agree about laughton!!!
@@AudacityAcorns i’m super late but he had a really bad cold as far as i know so that’s why he was struggling to get up there
Yeah, I could tell the first young man playing Quasimodo was battling against illness, I feel bad for him
Someone cast that Jean Valjean as Coalhouse Walker Jr in Ragtime STAT
That topher killed it.
And the grasshopper...wow that whole section!
Andrew Feldman is like a young Ben Fankhauser!
Commenting two years later to say Jeremy (Snoopy) is under appreciated he was fantastic even though his song is arguably less of a show off number. The energy and those vocal growls man.
i can’t do this, all of their riffs & runs & vibratos broke my hip, mom help
Andrew reminds me of Ben Platt
He's playing Evan Hansen on Broadway in January 2019. It was just announced
@@abbeyfeller2749 lol I know! Its wild!
This comment aged like fine wine
3:22 is all I'm gonna say
Emily McDonald Wise words
That Jean Valjean is ridiculously mature in his tone for the song. It’s fantastic!
The guy who played Snoopy would be an awesome John Laurens
That's the best Snoopy I think I've ever seen!!!! And the riffs in "Floatin Along" have me SHOOKETH
That second guy who played Quasi NAILS it. Oh man.
Alex B ikr mark is awesome! I went to school with him😱
Andrew is going to be such a star. I simply cannot wait to see his future endeavors! Wonderful voice, acting, and charisma.
And of course they’re all wonderfully talented!
Also Mark & Jeremy-so incredible. Such stage presence.
And Pippin is so handsome and his riffs are incredible. And Sir Harry’s acting is so good and I love how deep his voice is!
Hes evan Hansen now
and now he's in a movie opposite jennifer lawrence
Why aren’t people talking about Laughton Berry more he was fantastic and personally my favorite of the group.
Also the transitions from Snoopy to Jean Valjean to Topher was hilarious and amazing
The guy who sang from Dog Fight sounds very much like Derek Klena and I kinda love it
Andrew’s riff is so insane I’m still coming back 5 years later to listen to it
Andrew!!!! I can totally see why they picked him to be Evan. His voice has a lot of the same qualities that Ben platt has
Condemning Snoopy to slavery is low key savage
the transition from snoopy to jean valjean was hilarious
The riffs in Goodbye?? SHOOK
That transition from Les Mis to Cinderella 😂😂😂
i bet u if u told the kid in the varisty jacket that one day he would make out with katniss everdeen he would cry
Andrew was amazing, we know that cause he won, but Riley was also EXCEPTIONAL.
ohh they got fancy with the titles so we remember which actor is doing what. I love it!
2:46 is the reason i keep coming back here but more specifically 3:22
Noah's shoulders-movement at the beginning of his part cracks me up every time I watch it. great comic timing!
Holy shit the second Quasimodo was incredible. Star in the making
laughton and andrew.. who gave you the right to melt my heart and bless my ears with those RuUUUUuunNN?!?!?!
'Who am i' I'm SCREEEEEMING
MARK MITRANO (2nd Quasimodo) IM SHOOK BOY!!!!!!! ❤️
Emily Russell isn’t he great??? He won last year
No way!!! He’s absolutely amazing
topher? ate that. PERIODT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I swear the guy who did snoopy is going straight to broadway
All were brilliant, but Jeremy was my favorite, His voice is amazing and his acting was strong too. Andrew was great ofc and was deserving of the win.
I LOVE JEREMY VANDENHOUT WITH ALL MY ENTIRE HEART
Sarah Hamilfan nah i know him irl it’s vandenhout lmao
Mark was AMAZING
Unicorn Tacos on behalf of him thx
YES ANDREW HOLY HECK
Why is no one appreciating Grasshopper??? He did soooo good and I have no idea how he walks on those things it's definitely the coolest costume
Nasir Butler was absolutely amazing
The riff at 3:23 truly killed me I cannot go on
Made of Stone always makes me cry
pippin and grasshopper snatched me not gonna lie those riffs were heaven
ok andrews riff literally ended me
i will not stand for grasshopper and jean val jean to not get enough love
Exactly! I know Andrew won (and was really good) there’s more talented people here! Especially Valjean
NOW ANDREW IS GONNA BE ON HSMTMTS SEASON TWO AHHHHH
andrew was a sophomore here. ok thank you good night.
THE GUY WHO PLAYED PIPPIN IM OBSESSED.
I LOVE the energy from the guys playing grasshopper, and snoopy!!! Andrew's voice was absolutely amazinggggg too omggg.
The Actor playing Topher reminds me of AJ Holmes👏🏽
Kassidy No, he got possessed by AJ Holmes
yes i got to see andrew barth feldman on broadway! what an amazingly talented evan hansen 💙💙
I feel like we are sleeping on topher, that was hot
Every single person on that stage watching Andrew Feldman: "Well I'm screwed" (Side Note: there were also a lot of people that were also amazing!)
andrew absolutely killed this. i’m here again
TOPHERRRRRRRRRR
What a warm, voluminous Valjean Baritone!
