Evan Hansen IS a sociopath Mar 12

Far from a sociopath. He’s a lonely, anxious teen. People relate to him because at some point in their lives most people have felt isolated or “other.”
Words Fail is a great song because it beautifully articulates his conflict, guilt and remorse.
People lie all the time to decrease their loneliness. Anyone clutching their pearls over his behavior may be the ones lacking empathy.

Nothing about his posts made me think it was permanent...
He is on again tomorrow, though."
Is his story he said, "Im going on in my principal debut opposite some Tony nominees." It made me believe he might be taking over.
If Sunset is made into a movie, maybe Sajak and Paul can write a few new songs to punch it up a little.
Glenn's ship has sailed. This was the opportunity to give her an Oscar. The Wife was brilliant because she played against type and toned done her much lauded histrionics. It was a master class. Bastards.
The Oscars suck anyhow. Less and less relevant by the year. Glenn is a multi-millionaire who works continually in marvelous projects. Ask Cuba Gooding, Marisa
BEN PLATT Music Tour Feb 16

People are saying the theatres are big, but never underestimate a teen following. DEH Stans are pretty rabid. His Meet & Greet in Toronto is $607. Ouch!
I third Rumer Willis. She's very talented and needs to be given a big break. She works her butt off and doesn't cash in on her parents success. She has worked hard on her voice and it shows. I love her.
Anna Kendrick can still pass as a teen. She'd make a bankable Glinda.
It depends on who you ask. People either revere it or are meh. I was in the "meh" camp. I saw the tour and thought it was fine. Glad I didn't pay big bucks. I think there was a zeitgeist moment with the original cast that was a real happening. Since then, not so much.
Ive seen the play plenty of times where Frankie opens her robe with her back to the audience when he looks at her. Audra isnt necessarily going to be fully naked. Also, they can do a lot with lightning. She can be standing there naked and no one sees anything if the lights are done right.
It's a lovely play and Audra will nail it. She's a wonder.
Of course, Betty is allowed to do whatever she wants on her vacation. I don't begrudge her that. However, as it works with social media, people will make assumptions. When I call in to work, I don't post about my escapades on social media. That's all.
In her interviews about the tour she always mentions how much rest and self-care she needs, but her Instagram illustrates the exact opposite. During the holiday break she was back and forth between NYC and Texas, going to Broadways shows every night (sometimes two a day) and out to dinner. She was posting this.
Bette and Bernadette were quiet during the run and they stayed in NYC. BP said that she didn't talk as much, rested and worked out-that's it. Bette also said s
MrsSallyAdams said: "Troye Sivan. I saw him live in concert and he's magnetic. He looks as much like a teenager as anyone starring in Be More Chill and Dear Evan Hansen and could also work in a contemporary play like Significant Other. He's no reason to ever do theater but maybe a one night benefit concert or one of those (usually dreadful) NBC Live shows."
His stans would destroy the theatre going experience. I adore him, his voice
JSquared2 said: "Bettyboy72 I think Jackman would make good international box office, which is what investors will want. I also wouldn't be surprised if Gaga shows us as Betty as her and Glenn's mother are best friends.
Glenn Close's mother died in 2015 --- I seriously doubt that she and Lady Gaga are "best friends".
I think Glenn looks very young and robust. Nowhere near 70. I do wonder if she was speaking too soon about the film though. When I saw the Sunset Revival on Broadway someone asked Xavier if a new cast recording was in the works. He quickly said no, and Glenn who was signing next to him said, "it's happening. We're talking to the producers. We want it to happen." Her response surprised and as we know there was no recording. I wonder if this is something she is doing to keep t
