George Hearn AND John Barrowman!
-
My absolute favorite part? Just after the curtain falls when George gathers everyone in for a group hug. :)
-
@toothpick04 When he got injured during the show his understudy came very close to performing in his role to where under equity rules he would have to take over the part and Bronson would be out of a job. Bronson pretty much ordered the producers the find someone to take the part over for a couple of weeks so he could keep his job and enter Evan Pappas into the role...Evan was better....

@fantasylover42 i guess because all of them were as famous as each other, there was no need for audiences to pick favourites
-
Carol Burnett's voice is perfect for this song. No too emotional or sentimental, just the right amount of self control.

George Hearn is a god. I absolutely love him. I have been in love with him and his voice since he first introduced to Sondheim during a PBS broadcast of Sweeney Todd way back in 1982...I was half asleep on the couch that Friday night and through the twilight....I said to myself "What IS that beautiful music and who is that singing". I have been a Sondheim/Hearn fanatic ever since. God bless you! Genuis!!!

This is amazing, I cannot stop watching it. George Hearn is amazing, as are all the cast. George is the fave of mine though, he makes me cry each time he sings <3

I love how right after she gets through singing, Carol hugs George and (probably) cries on his shoulder. I get so much like that during last shows, too.
