Fun fact that might make someone jealous: Tommy Bracco was the choreographer of a musical number I did at a camp. I got to get to know him personally for a week. I KNOW HIM GUYS I KNOW HIM

I saw Charlie and the chocolate factory with tommy and the staff + kids as well

[@kaitlynmarkert4150]

That's amazing! I had the opportunity to take class with Jennifer Savelli, so I get how wonderful it is to take class from a Broadway preformer.

I know!!! He was so bitter when Ben got the cam, it’s so iconic!!!

Haha, Jeremy more focused on the game than the fact that there are people in his dressing room asking him questions and complimenting him. :)

When Kara's talking about the candy bowls and Tommy is like "the ones that I wasn't touching" I couldn't stop laughing

[@ak-id1ni]

I can't tell if Ben is very tall or if Tommy is very short. Perhaps a mixture of both.

[@ryanjankelowitz9710]

"i think they brough it back upstayeez- *cough* upstairs"

[@laurenconrad1799]

I always find it fascinating how they divide up the dressing rooms. It looks like there are two dressings for for five girls total, and a couple of male leads who get a dressing room with one or two other people, and Jeremy Jordan’s room. But then, how many boys are packed into the ensemble dressing room? Are there several male ensemble dressing rooms at this show? I mean, the sheer number of male ensemble members in this show is insane.

[@sarah-fu1it]

At 7:29, in the backround Tommy held up the to tacks and he saiid tic tack. That made me laugh so hard!!

[@potatoluna3389]

Tommy is so cute. I love him. He's so adorable. He's so different from his Character it's funny.

[@gayandafraid1763]

The amount of times I’ve watched this.. should I be proud or guilty

[@mydreamstellme]

the handsomest (and prettiest) cast in all the land! :)

[@Moiturette]

Ben said that the Nederlander Theater had a lot of history, and he's right. In the 1960s, the Nederlander Theater was called the Billy Rose Theater, and it was here that Edward Albee's famous play, "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf"? was first performed, on 13th October, 1962. By the way, don't miss "Newsies". It's sensational. I can't recommend it highly enough.

[@rainyday6512]

8:05 I do kinda see a resemblance

[@nikkijames5611]

i love everyone so much and Andrew is a sweetheart so hes obviously acting

[@lucicorinne297]
