You Can’t Stop the Beat from the smash hit Hairspray, with the original Broadway cast, headed by Tony winners Harvey Fierstein and Marrisa Jaret Winokur with Matthew Morrison, Kerry Butler, and Laura Bell Bundy (just to name a few). The uploader edited out the dialogue scene that comes between the number’s two parts.

What is your absolute favorite musical role of all time?

[francescajohnson]

Is this a potentially challenging time to mount a show that has an earnest, straightforward story and that isn’t, perhaps, a cornerstone of musical-theater history?  Benanti: We’re not “Hamilton.” But there wouldn’t be a “Hamilton” if there weren’t a “She Loves Me” or “Gypsy” or “The King and I.” Krakowski: I did see Scott’s original revival. It feels, as it does now, like this beautiful jewel box. For a musical that isn’t as well known, it’s quite a perfect little piece.

Matthew Morrison and Patti Cohenour perform Aiutami featuring the original Naccarelli family: Michael Berresse, Sarah Uriarte Berry and Mark Harelik, in The Light in The Piazza (2005 with music and lyrics by Adam Guettel). 

(Although the video quality is less than great) I feel like this musical sequence sums up the brilliance of this production: the cast, book, direction, and superb design. Also please enjoy Sarah’s glorious high notes.

Leslie Odom Jr. singing the ‘Dear Theodosia’ (Reprise) at The Public Theater which was unfortunately cut from the final broadway production of Hamilton. 

The song follows ‘Burn’ in the second act and describes Aaron Burr telling his daughter that her mother, his wife, has passed away.

I Can Do Better Than That (from The Last Five Years) - Cynthia Erivo

Jason Robert Brown in Concert - 26th May 2015

She tore the bloody roof off the Royal Festival Hall. I am so constantly in awe of this woman. She received mid-show standing ovation after this.

At age 23, Tina Fey was working at a YMCA. At age 23, Oprah was fired from her first reporting job.  At age 24, Stephen King was working as a janitor and living in a trailer. 

At age 27, Vincent Van Gogh failed as a missionary and decided to go to art school.   At age 28, J.K. Rowling was a suicidal single parent living on welfare.

At age 28, Wayne Coyne ( from The Flaming Lips) was a fry cook. At age 30, Harrison Ford was a carpenter.  At age 30, Martha Stewart was a stockbroker.  At age 37, Ang Lee was a stay-at-home-dad working odd jobs. Julia Child released her first cookbook at age 39, and got her own cooking show at age 51. Vera Wang failed to make the Olympic figure skating team, didn’t get the Editor-in-Chief position at Vogue, and designed her first dress at age 40. Stan Lee didn’t release his first big comic book until he was 40. Alan Rickman gave up his graphic design career to pursue acting at age 42. Samuel L. Jackson didn’t get his first movie role until he was 46.

Morgan Freeman landed his first movie role at age 52. Kathryn Bigelow only reached international success when she made The Hurt Locker at age 57. Grandma Moses didn’t begin her painting career until age 76. Louise Bourgeois didn’t become a famous artist until she was 78. Whatever your dream is, it is not too late to achieve it. You aren’t a failure because you haven’t found fame and fortune by the age of 21. Hell, it’s okay if you don’t even know what your dream is yet. Even if you’re flipping burgers, waiting tables or answering phones today, you never know where you’ll end up tomorrow. Never tell yourself you’re too old to make it. 

Never tell yourself you missed your chance. 

Never tell yourself that you aren’t good enough. 

You can do it. Whatever it is.
