Talent - Gavin Creel

[erniehead]

This is AWESOME. Put up the rest of the show, dammit! Someone!!

[kgrahams]

was this at Goodman Theater in Chicago?

[CoelJumber]

How have I not seen this before? <3

[andrewwinans]

where can you find the sheet music to this song, besides the full score?

[andrewwinans]

OBSESSED with this song. Gavin Creel + Stephen Sondheim music = HEAVEN.

[hulloitsjamess]

i can't believe how perfect his voice is.

I just rewinded the beginning a million times.

[actordude9393]

How old was Gavin at this time?

[valpack07]

he was born in 1976 & this was in 2003. so if my math is right 27....

[MichaelEnright1]

Does anyone know where I can get the sheet music to this song ?!? I wanna use it for something ... if u know PLEASE help me out !

[blackpython]

A lot of music stores might have the vocal selections for Bounce or Road Show (the revised version of this show) and I believe this song is in both. If you're anywhere near NYC, I know Colony would have it.

[counter10r]

I saw the Goodman production and I have to say that I wasn't very impressed (and I AM a big Sondheim fan)--though this was one of the parts I actually enjoyed. I didn't get to see ROAD SHOW, so not sure if I'd feel differently about the revisions.

[711luvAquaatmall]

O.k. I'm seriously obsessed with this song...this is like th 10th time i've listened to it in a row!!!

[Jayee123]

I find myself coming back to it, too. Gavin Creel makes it sound effortless. A good example of a talented artist committed to his material.

[Peadarisback]

best song from Bounce!

[fflorol]

@Peadarisback it's the best from Road Show too ;)

[meeee46]

why didn't critics didn't like this? this is awesome

[CareBlaire]

Dunno. Can't speak for Bounce myself, but I saw the reincarnation of this (Road Show), and while Sondheim can never be BAD, I didn't think it was his strongest work. A so-so interesting story, and a lot of the music made me think of his far superior previous works. Maybe that's why? Nothing exciting enough to really grab hold of.

[broadwaystar2011]

is it just me, or is his hair shiny:D or maybe is is the lighting...

[BakingAccident]

i think he's greased it back or something (just to look the part mind you)

;D so his hair is indeed rather shiny.

[actordude9393]

you're right.

[eew12]

The shiny hair is all I could focus on through the whole song. Funny that I wasn't the only one.

[broadwaystar2011]

is this at michigan... when did he graduate michigan? any one know?

[sibilaiton]

I pulled this from AKB's page:

"Gavin Creel (98) received a 2002 Tony Award nomination as Best Actor in a Musical for his performance in THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE. LA CAGE AUX FOLLES (Bway), Burt in the London production of MARY POPPINS."

[Amsterkick]

This is at the Goodman Theatre in Chicago.... either that or in D.C.

[jfantau]

So good ! I really hope Sondheim's revisions of Bounce help it enter into the regular canon of musicals.

[tappytb]

wot an amzing song i have never heard it before! i love gavin creel so frinkin much possible the best musical theatre young male voice ever! closely followed by kris harding!

[loquaciousthe3RD]

[TriquadKatie]

yep...

he knows what he's doing

i love sondheim

[norinana]

I love his voice! oh wow......

[Concetta20]

I thought he was amazing when I heard him on the "Millie" soundtrack, now seeing him actually perfoming . . . he's mind-blowingly great! . . . And hot.

[frontrowcentre]

Except Gavin isn't on the soundtrack of MILIE. He wasn't even born yet when that movie was made. He is on teh original Broadway cast recording.

[roninjoey]

I believe you mean "MILLIE" and "the" Mr. Snarky-pants.

[broadwaystar2011]

haha, caught that too...

[hsr89]

amen

[sbort]

can i please MARRY him?!!! : ) sheesh... *sigh* freakin' gavin... GAVIN FOREVER.

[BustopherPhantom]

I don't understand how Sondheim can claim this show to be a cartoon - some of his work is just too creepy to not take seriously.

[mizzybranson]

@sbort Step off Shelly. I loved him first.

[broadwaystar2011]

@sbort Sorry... i already married him ;) I wish... 

[tgawron]

Can I please BE him??

[Number1ricky]

Love the comment! I just want to have his voice for a day to. I'd go get so many girlfriends!

[YourFaceFacely]

He's one of my favorite theatre tenors. He's got this most beautiful, amazing voices. It might be the camera angle, but does he have a lazy eye?

[trackygurl64]

he is sooo freaking amazing. and hott but thats besides the point. He is probably my favorite male on broadway.

[crazymax8]

love me some michigan grads...

[brucewayne5148]

wow this is just amazing....i can't help but to replay it over and over

[alfieism]

Gavin has such a clear vibrato. God, I've watched this near 30 times. Today.

[theatrebuggy07]

OMG!!! I'm in love w/ Gavin!!! We're gonna get married someday, he just doesn't kno that yet... :P

[kittykatman22]

I love this! Are there anymore clips from BOUNCE

[SKYdancerES]
