I think Daniel and Darren both did spectacular and i will NOT compare them. I am a fan of both, and comparing them will just bring them down. As a kid in school theater, i know that we are all supposed to help eachother, not bring eachother by comparing our performances. So, they both did amazing.

I believe this was one of his first three previews. So things were still changing quite a bit at this point. Not sure if he was sick, he may have been. He did improve though quickly after a month or so, so it sounds to me like this is just where he was vocally.
@SarahtheWimpykid11 жыл бұрын

But the choreography is also designed to work fine if he’s one or two beats late there. It’s all good! But yes, check the Tonys performance for spot on timing (though it’s a slightly compressed version of the song).

I don't know. I've heard clips from Darren's performance and his voice didn't carry as well through the audience. Darren is the better singer of the two, but it's almost as if Dan's voice was more suited to this role IMO. Although out of the 3 of them, Nick sounded the best TBH. I also much preferred Dan's acting to Darren's from what I've seen. Then again, I also think Dan is a MUCH better Harry Potter than Darren. Let's face it... Harry is NOT American.
