[@denisefreitas6727]

Amazing musical, amazing cast! Love Jonathan Groff & John Gallagher Jr!

[@2Snoochy]

I love this opening night video,but even though the final performance video of Skylar's and the other 4 cast members is the best,because Skylar yanks his glasses of as Georg and sings the loudest and excellently.There's nothing like it.

[@kyburz2008]

i agree but which one?

[@ladyinred868]

WHY NEVER NO GIDEON!!! God!! pissing me off so much -.-

[@davidsinnott1894]

In the few videos and interviews I’ve seen him in from back then he always seemed quite shy / socially awkward, so perhaps he just did his best to avoid these types of things.

Jonthan b wright!!!

[@rhys9130]

No it isn't. He isn't from pitch perfect. He's been in dozens of productions

[@biyayabalboa8039]

Rhys yes. He is the guy from pitch perfect, look it up

[@rhys9130]

@@biyayabalboa8039 I know he was in pitch perfect, but he probably doesn't want to be known as that guy from the cringy acapella movie.

Aw baby groff

[@bayleecubbfrazette]

SO CUUUTE

[@somethingnexttonormal]

I wonder what age kids Duncan was taking about, because this is the least child-friendly show I've ever seen

[@j.cun777]

BroadwayBookworm325 teens i guess

[@SteveTheGummyWorm]

i'd say probably younger teens. i mean, Lea Michele was only 14 when she was in the original workshop for this show

[@fandomdomination3071]

14-18 range i think maybe 15-18

[@paulbrighton8206]

BroadwayBookworm325 well, it wasn’t written for kids just because it was about kids. No more than if there was a story about what happened to 14, 15, 16 years olds when they are not with their parents. They curse, they drink, they smoke weed, they vape, the drink alcohol, and some have sex. Many parents at this show don’t cover their kids ears because they know what they hear in school is much worse.

[@kathrynwitte3398]

Paul Brighton you must think that teenagers aren’t doing that. Do you live in a castle in the sky or do you just build them?

[@mar-oe6qk]

they look like babeyssss

I have to wonder if Lea was a Diva during Spring Awakening like she was in Glee. I feel like I've heard all the Glee cast talk about her but I haven't heard anything about her other jobs

[@lisamcilvain4992]

Here is a direct quote from spring awakening cast member Gerard cononico, “you were nothing but a nightmare to me and fellow understudy cast members” so there you go.

[@jeffreywillstewart]

She is very driven. She IS probably dismissive to b level players. But geez, even Glee was ten years ago , obviously a lot of people of merit like her, so. Keep up, she's forgiven and going to rock Funny Girl.

[@yuke1256]

@@jeffreywillstewart Woah buddy. I asked a genuine question with no malice and also no claims about her. Dont get your panties in a bunch jeez.

[@abbyrockchick]

She's best friends with all the OBC to this day. Have you not seen Those You've Known? Get a life.

[@yuke1256]

@@abbyrockchick No I havent seen that because I do actually have a life doing things instead of rudely replying to completely respectful ordinary comments. Jesus what is with you Lea stans yall are so aggressive for no reason

[@JessicaSoares-ri1kp]

0:58. I'm sorry, what? I know how great this show is but...

[@melissam597]

That was rather pretentious
