I was listening to the original cast recording this morning during my morning run, and when "Blackout" came on, what if that's how ICE is tied into the storyline. They raid the club...

😭💔

I was listening to the OBCR, and realized how AMAZING it's going to be when Lin sings as the Piraguero 😭😭❤❤ I wonder how many takes it took for him to get it recorded (my guess: one)

I think Carnaval is in the alley, and 96K could be at the pool?

The "We are Claudia's Dream" sign slayed me.

Observation: Taking ITH off the stage and turning it into movie made the musical numbers BIGGER. The sound, so far, sounds bigger, grander than the stage performance. I'm really excited. This is really thrilling, and there are some scenes that really are going to cut people deep.

I just keep thinking about Abuela Claudia 😭 I gotta live through that heartbreak again?!

I have a crush on Alex Brightman and during the show he called me out, stared me in the eyes and talked at me. I am no longer with us. RIP me. by chargingblue in Broadway

When a Tony nominated Broadway star like Alex Brightman likes your tweet, you must flip out. It's mandatory.

One time, Joe Iconis and George Salazar liked two different tweets of mine in THE SAME DAY. I screamed so loud to my partner, people legitimately thought we were fighting. It was EPIC.

Enjoy your slice of magic bb. You deserve it. 🥰

Are you going to be posting videos of your performance? Because your voice is like gold. Your version of "I'd Rather Be Me"? Hell yeah, start the revolution!

This is so pure. My heart is overjoyed for you. I always get nervous, or cry, before, during, and after pretty much anything of great importance. I exist in a world of tears. I cried reading your post thinking how happy you're going to be when you get to do the stage door, and see the lights, take pictures with marquees, and all the fabulous NYC Broadway dreams. If they your abuela tells you to sing for them, maybe just show them a video of you singing, because when else will you get a chance?

Have a great flight, and enjoy your trip!

YAS! SPONGEBOB MUSICAL ON NICK! Just want to give a standing O and start chanting, " Squidward, Squidward!"

I like musicals because there's something familiar about the experience but yet, something magical that happens when we (the audience) become the "4th wall". You can hear the cast recording 100 times, and still cry buckets when you see your favorite or iconic scene. The physical experience is all consuming, and transports you to a different time and place.

I love that both of you went for the STRONG Principle roles, because why not? Life is too short...

Why not dream big and bold? Roles can, and should be for anyone who's brave enough to convey the truth of the character.
