  • At Broadway Backwards 2019, Emmy and Golden Globe Award winner Darren Criss (Hedwig and the Angry Inch, TV’s The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story) battled a case of pre-wedding jitters with the rapid-fire patter of Stephen Sondheim’s “Getting Married Today” from Company. Criss, who just got married himself last month, was joined by Ward Billeisen, Michael James Scott and the Broadway Backwards ensemble.

    “Getting Married Today” by Stephen Sondheim from Company
    Musical Staging by Robert Bartley
    Costume Design by Natalie Loveland
    Orchestrated by Ben Krauss
    Conducted by Michael Gacetta
    A bevy of Broadway’s brightest stars joined a sold-out audience on March 11, 2019, to celebrate and motivate the LGBTQ community and its allies through gender-reversed renditions of beloved show tunes, spectacular choreography and a record-breaking fundraising total at Broadway Backwards.
    The 14th annual edition of the show raised $704,491 to benefit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS and The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center in New York City. The previous fundraising record was set last year at $680,273.
    Broadway Backwards (#BroadwayBackwards), which was produced by Broadway Cares at the New Amsterdam Theatre, featured a cast of 130 performers and a live, 12-piece orchestra. It started with two of Broadway’s favorite singing-and-dancing leading men - Gavin Creel and Andrew Rannells - and ended with a stirring anthem led by the evening’s host, Tony Award nominee Jenn Colella (Come From Away).
    Broadway Backwards creator Robert Bartley wrote and directed this year’s show. Mary-Mitchell Campbell served as music supervisor; Ted Arthur and Christopher D. Littlefield were music directors. The evening's choreographers were Robert Bartley, Karla Puno Garcia, Paul McGill, Mimi Quillin, Stephen Reed and Robbie Roby. The creative team included lighting designer Timothy Reed, costume designers Johnna Fettinger, Jess Gersz and Natalie Loveland, prop designers Jenna Snyder and Alexander Wylie and sound designers Kurt Fischer and Marie Renee Foucher. The production stage manager was Jeff Brancato.
    ***

      He forgot to mention the SAG Award, which he also won. It is given out by the Screen Actors Guild and is just as, if not more, important than a GG. In short, Darren swept all the television awards for his role in the Andrew Cunanan story, which is rare.

      @stephaniel2850 5 ปีที่แล้ว +395

      Exactly! haha. His point in saying he would be intentional about not taking more LGBT roles for a while was that he recognizes his privilege and doesn't want to end up taking opportunities away from LGBTQ actors. Obviously, for a one-off benefit event like this where the whole point is about gender-swapping and such, that's really not an issue. I'm sure he'll stick to what he said in terms of future TV/film/Broadway projects, but for little fun gender-bendy events like this, of course he's not going to shy away just because it might be gay :)

    For everyone commenting about how Darren said he wont play gay characters anymore, which i completely agree with btw, queer people should play roles designed for them, we should also realise things aren't clear cut & understand this isn't a normal thing it isn't the same as auditioning, being cast and then being paid to portray a role. This along with all the other benefits/fun events they have that take place throughout the year for Broadway are when they do switch out from the traditional cast roles and just have fun with songs/ shows/ characters they wouldn't usually do.
    I love all versions of this & adore this version aswell and the three of them looked like they had a blast doing it. Couple of mistakes but, this song, which is probably one of the hardest to do due to the lyrics and speed (this isn't the fastest version i'm aware) and filmed in front of a live audience i'm impressed that's those couple of lines was all it was and it was saved amazingly and didn't stray or really go out of the context for the feeling of the song.

    Starkid and Glee fan here:
    I just automatically see him as Blaine because his Harry looked so different (?😂), and it’s crazy because when he proposed to Kurt he was so in love with him and he would have never had a second thought on whether or not he wanted to marry him. It’s honestly making me kind of sad sitting here thinking this was going on behind the scenes of their wedding, but, you know, just average overthinking fangirl tings. 😆✌️

    No matter what I see him in, whether it's Glee or this he will always be Harry Potter and I'm so happy that he has found the success he so rightfully deserves. ♥

    Pardon me, is everybody here?
    Because if everybody's here
    I'd like to thank you all
    For coming to the wedding.
    I'd appreciate you going even more
    I mean, you must have lots of better things to do
    And not a word of it to Paul
    Remember Paul? You know, the man I'm going to marry
    But I'm not, because I wouldn't ruin anything
    As wonderful as he is.
    Thank you all for the gifts and the flowers,
    Thank you all, now it's back to the showers
    Don't tell Paul, but I'm not getting married today.
    Listen everybody, look, I don't know what you're waiting for
    A wedding. What's a wedding? It's a prehistoric ritual
    Where everybody promises fidelity forever,
    Which is maybe the most horrifying word I ever heard of,
    Which is followed by a honeymoon, where suddenly he'll realize
    He's saddled with a nut, and want to kill me, which he should.
    Thanks a bunch, but I'm not getting married
    Go have lunch, 'cause I'm not getting married
    You've been grand, but I'm not getting married
    Don't just stand there, I'm not getting married
    And don't tell Paul, but I'm not getting married today.
    Go! Can't you go?
    Why is nobody listening?
    Goodbye! Go and cry
    At another person's wake.
    If you're quick, for a kick
    You could pick up a christening
    But please, on my knees,
    There's a human life at stake!
    Listen everybody, I'm afraid you didn't hear
    Or do you want to see a crazy lady fall apart in front of you?
    It isn't only Paul who would be ruining his life
    You know, we'll both of us be losing our identities
    I telephoned my analyst about it, and he said to see him Monday
    But by Monday I'll be floating in the Hudson with the other garbage.
    I'm not well, so I'm not getting married
    You've been swell, but I'm not getting married
    Clear the hall, 'cause I'm not getting married
    Thank you all, but I'm not getting married
    And don't tell Paul, but I'm not getting married today.

    for some reason i just keep coming back to it and rewatching this for millionth time. i love darren criss and anything he does but this performance makes me want to play it again and again. yeah he’s definitely slower than other people that performed “i’m not getting married” before him but for me his version is way more emotional and i like it that way. like it gives ME anxiety just watching his character having a breakdown. and the way his voice gets really high on 5:17 and kinda breaks later jeez that gives me feels. also michael james scott is absolutely hilarious in this so yeah i just can’t stop rewatching it over and over
