Gavin Lee seems to be specializing in weird tap dance numbers. He tap-danced on the ceiling in "Mary Poppins". Now, he's tap dancing with four legs in "Spongebob"

And now with candle hands in Beauty and the Beast. Get your feathers on him, EMMA CAFFREY!

I loved how they changed squidward's actions at the end of the song to be more like giddy and give squidward a childish excitement as he sees all his dreams coming true. very nice detail and it makes a world of difference in the final product
