Based on this Instagram post, Justin Guarini is "emergency" replacing an actor who was injured, starting tomorrow night. Is the music in the video recognizable or does anyone have any ideas which musical?

Although the description sounds iffy, what would keep me away is that director...

Not trying to be rude or snarky, just genuinely curious - what don't you like about Stafford Arima?
Can't speak for newintown - but I haven't been impressed with anything he's directed. Boring, lacks insight, often a hot mess.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

^ I have to agree. When I see his name on anything, I always question purchasing tickets. He's so inconsistent - it's a love or hate thing with him IMO.
Thought it was something on Broadway but I guess that explains why I couldn't find any reports of injured actors. I'm impressed that Justin jumped in and learned a completely new musical in two days to help out his local theater company; I just can't muster up much interest in this particular musical.
