[xkfireflieskx]

GOD I can't believe I saw that original cast. Nor that I also got a talk-back session with Lin-Manuel Miranda and the rest of the cast. Will never forget. xD

[XBreezyBooX]

I just..love this show so much.

[jonnyeeds]

Lin-Manuel Miranda is my hero!

[JMichaelFowlkes]

OMG... anyone notice that when he says "That's my wall!" He says flip and mimes a butterfly knife? HAHAHA!

[ritsfata]

Next time I see someone spray paint a building I'm going to say "YO THAT'S MY WALL!"

[TheEarehart]

[wellar6]

[SnakeEyes259]

'YO THAT"S MY WALL!"

[westsidestory97]

At curtain call, when everyone's just standing there, all teary-eyed... I start to cry like a baby.<3

[westsidestory97]

Oh, Karen... I love you SO much.

[MrBroadwaydream]

I saw Krysta Rodriguez from addams family at 3:58. I didn't know she was in this show.

[dragonlp86]

@MrBroadwaydream Yeah, she was in it for a good while. She was the understudy for the character of Vanessa as well. She did pretty well in the role, being as young as she is!

[twiistedXfate]

[KenzTheMac2]

This show is amazing!

[MorganDiNozzoLover]

This is my favorite musical!!!!! I saw it in New York this past May with my mom in New York on Boradway! I then saw it again this past Saturday with my dad in Houston!

[Allmusicals13]

[rasselas16]

[drea0123]

[browdwayloverz]

if you look closely throught the whole show, youll see a girl in a red plaid skirt. shes EVERYWHERE. i think they use her more than the other dancers. HOW DO THEY DO THAT DANCING IN THOSE SHOES?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

[browdwayloverz]

wonderful. i wish i had seen it opening day. can you imagine the tension beckstage? i wonder what nina was doing opening number. a lot of songs shes not there. like 9600 and carnival del barrio.

[qzpmystik]

@browdwayloverz

When not onstage you typically sit in the Green Room watching/listening from the monitors or are in your dressing room finishing up any costume changes or makeup touchups that need to be done

[nairhart01]

dreams come true bitches! lol love itt.

[nomycat]

What is the name of the song that is playing in the background at 4:13

[pizzazzluver]
