@12cowwoman - wait, lo,m that's drool, not droll, right? and you guys were right, lol, those high kicks are amazing! wish I could still get my legs up that high! ;)
"Everyone has a dream. Yours is about to come true." I agree. When I saw Hugh doing those high kicks, I think my heart just burst. He has a great voice. The thing about the stage is, you only get one chance. In movies, you can do a couple takes. But, once you're on the stage, it's do or die. Hugh Jackman works the stage. He just lives to perform. Good think he's sexy. Hahaha!
he won an emmy for this. you think they would have given him a standing ovation for this. but no, he got one for the oscar's opening but not for the tony's this year or the next.
Hugh really makes it worth watching. Watched the past Tonys and this is the best because of Hugh, The last Oscars the same. Its great to have a real entertainer who understands the business. He has no tickets on himself and seems like a really lovely man.
I'm not contesting that he's amazing and talented and beautiful, but I must point out that I don't think he's actually kicking higher than the Rockettes, he's just taller, so his hips are above theirs, so his leg is higher but not at a more extreme angle
God, he's amazing! It was so cute how he got kind of winded after the high kicks but he was still able to sing and even hit and hold that long note! Can't wait for the Oscars!
Hugh was amazing! I watch his Tony's opening when I need a mood booster. He is so talented...and sexy...and those long legs and great smile - he is enjoying his life! Yummy! I hope he comes back to Broadway soon. Thanks for posting.
Oh, my gosh... it just (2:59) got hot in here (or is it just me!) :)

@mmcharacter1 I was thinking the same. Think it's jealousy that he has successful careers in both film and theater, really high standards or what?
