On today's "LIVE with Kelly," Jake Gyllenhaal sat down with Kelly Ripa and guest co-host Jeffrey Dean Morgan to talk about the Broadway musical SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE. The actor tells the hosts about a distracting (yet very funny) audience member who loudly exclaimed "I think that's him!" during one of his performances. Check out the appearance below!
Sondheim and Lapine's masterpiece follows painter Georges Seurat (Jake Gyllenhaal) in the months leading up to the completion of his most famous painting, A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. Consumed by his need to "finish the hat," Seurat alienates the French bourgeoisie, spurns his fellow artists, and neglects his lover Dot (Annaleigh Ashford), not realizing that his actions will reverberate over the next 100 years.
