[@frankrowlandmusic]

Nice video. Pat your music director is a friend of mine. That neon sign "Play it pretty for Atlanta" was very cool. A little ode to Lynyrd Skynrd recording of Free Bird.

[@stevehofmaster4292]

This was great! So interesting to see all the behind the scenes prep.! I also love how you connect with the high school kids whenever you can! I can’t even imagine the toll it takes on your body and the exhaustion you must feel after two shows in one day😳🥵😴. Take care! Enjoy your couple of days with your hubby! Much love and big hugs!

Hi Chris! Thanks for sharing, I’m a HUGE HAMILTON fan! Saw it for my Birthday at the Richard Rogers Theatre. It’s great that you do the workshops with young students. It means so much and could lead to so much in someone’s future. Thanks for taking the time to teach, show and encourage. Congratulations on yours and Clay’s wedding! Be safe and well. ‘Raise a glass to freedom!’

[@allancuseo7431]

So exciting and stimulating . Takes me back to my days in the theatre

[@KFP.Dreamer]

Did you teach at Gates Chili? And perform as Mother Ginger in the Nutcracker?

[@cherieamaue2092]

Thanks so much for sharing a peak into your life on road! 🤩🤩

[@ChrisAndClay]

Of course! My pleasure!! And there is more to come!

[@KandeShack]

The Other Two is so great! How fun that you were playing Samuel Seabury! My friend Thayne plays that in the Broadway cast. I think he is the only remaining original cast member. I saw the And Peggy cast tonight in Salt LakeCity. Great show. Enjoy this journey and congrats on getting married👏🏻👏🏻

[@donhigdon3356]

I loved the behind the scenes glimpse Chris. I'm so bummed that your cast isn't coming to AZ.

[@ChrisAndClay]

I know! Wish we could be in two places at once! Thanks for watching!!

[@pppmanly]

If "Hamilton" comes (back) to Toronto🍁, I will definitely try to see the show. 👍🏽

[@aaronburr8258]

NO BUT LIKE ACTUALLY THIS IS WHEN I WENT TO GO SEE HAMILTON

[@emilycarmela]

AHH I SAW THE PHILLIP COMPANY IN PHILLY IN OCTOBER I LOVED IT.

[@ChrisAndClay]

Aw yay! I'm glad you enjoyed the show!

[@emilycarmela]

@@ChrisAndClay OMG YOU ANSWERED THIS IS SO COOL ILY GUYSSS

[@davidcosta8499]

Saw the show at the Fox in Atlanta a couple weeks ago. I had the goofiest grin on my face the whole time. You all were fantastic!!

[@ChrisAndClay]

AWW! I love that! So glad you were in the audience and had a great time!!

[@Msyatt]

Thank you so much for the backstage tour! Just saw the show at Philly this evening, and it was great! 🤩😊

[@ChrisAndClay]

That's my cast! Hope you had so much fun!!!

[@ChrisAndClay]

Thanks for coming to see the show! Hope you enjoyed it!! :)

[@sarabearmcd9456]

I'm excited to see you perform when the tour comes to Baltimore in the fall!

[@ChrisAndClay]

Honestly I don't know if we'll do it any other way now!! It was a lot easier!

[@danahoward8234]

This was so interesting to see how it works.

[@daviddensford6617]

There should be a Tony award for Best Swing! But seriously, my husband and I hope you've had a nice time in Atlanta. Good luck and thanks for the behind-the-scenes adventures!

[@ChrisAndClay]

Hey- that would be pretty cool! Thanks for the love and support!

[@jaysadventures8887]

Yess this looks so much fun!!! I have my Hamilton callback this week!!! Hope to join your cast

[@ChrisAndClay]

JAY! SO EXCITING! Break all the legs. Can you imagine? If so, WE SHOULD DO A VLOG TOGETHER! :) Fingers so crossed. Have the best time!!

[@jaysadventures8887]

@@ChrisAndClay Awee you are so sweet !!! Yes thank you!!

[@AbdulRohmanYt]

It's a beautiful and very beautiful place.

[@stevenscholze8196]

I love this. Many don't understand what's involved in a travelling company. We saw Hamilton in Chicago a few years ago and then again here, in Madison. I truly hope yours the the tour that's coming back here next year. We'll be there.

[@ChrisAndClay]

Absolutely. So much work goes into putting on a show for an audience! SO glad you have gotten to see the show before!!

[@DanielleDoherty]

Such a great video!

[@ChrisAndClay]

Thank you so much! Wanted to show you all some of the BTS stuff!

[@CapeCod69]

Thanks for the review. It was very interesting. Great job.

[@ChrisAndClay]

Of course! It was my pleasure. Thanks for watching!

[@erika14024]

Watching this because I bought tickets for the Fresno, CA show and I just can't WAIT lol

[@ChrisAndClay]

EEEEEEEEE! Thanks for watching!! Such a special show.

[@williampike1915]

I love your energy. Hope you have a great visit with your husband.

[@raynaemerson5787]

Question: When you are on contract, what is the show responsible for and what is the performer responsible for (both on a Tour and on Broadway)? It was really neat to see how your day goes when you are performing.

[@memeshortking]

5:10 GOO GAAAYYY GOOOOO

[@susancluck8629]

You are incredible!! While in Atlanta, about how many shows were you in each week?

[@mahtarhtarnwe3855]

Hi Chris ! so good 👍

[@Michael-sq3ei]

One half of my Disney Princes, I loved getting to see what you love to do so much and see in your eyes the enjoyment as they light up as you guided us along your day. Sorry you are away from you other great love, but you will be reunited soon. Did you ever let your neighbors know you are in Hamilton? Stay and travel safely.

[@ChrisAndClay]

I did end up chatting with him and he had just seen the show. He loved it!!

[@jeromejackson1029]

You are adorable!

[@iamandycheng]

Thank you so much for sharing your life behind the scenes!! “The Other Two” is HILARIOUS!!! I just finished season two… Question, how do you keep your voice from going sore before or during the shows?

[@ChrisAndClay]

Great question! I'll answer it in the follow up vid!

[@john7027]

Thank you for giving this back stage pass. Break a leg ♥️

[@ChrisAndClay]

Of course! My pleasure! Thanks!!

[@puppyluvx3]

Thank you so much!! I'll see you tonight in Jax!! 😃

[@candleshoemanor]

Ok, total nerd question - the tour trunks - details, brand, etc. please?? They look great - especially with the flat top, and would be super helpful for touring TYA show stuff!!

[@Solskin60Tina]

Thank you for showing us what it is like working and touring with musicals 😊 The other two I think that is the show where they imitate another gay coupe Thomas and PJ from youtube. I have not access to it but I heard about it from them.

[@gloriouslyimperfect]

I’d love to see your cool down!

[@ChrisAndClay]

Ohhh! Great idea for the next Hamilton video!

[@gloriouslyimperfect]

@@ChrisAndClay they’re not talked about enough and they’re so important. I don’t sing but I teach all day and my vocal therapist gave me great warm ups and cool downs but I always love to have other tools in my toolbox.

[@saraoviyach4839]

Question: my friend just began her first Broadway national tour in cats, what advice would you give to someone on their first contract?

[@stevendanielsteven264]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@patimuse]

Every queen should try on the King’s crown - please do on next vid, but ask permission so you don’t get in trouble; I hear those Union rules backstage are strict - lol Happy to see Broadway & Live Theater Back

[@emilytolman46]

Wow

[@StephenHartHartTalks]

I loved my days of touring but it was tiring for sure. xoxo

[@deet7683]

Is there a difference in shows in different cities?

[@jaywalker729]

Are you on the cast that will be coming to Little Rock?

[@ascotberks2018]

What is the difference between Swing and Understudy? Do you foresee yourself moving into major roles? Thanks for sharing your day.

[@iamandycheng]

Second question…. Been thinking of getting a Hamilton tattoo… what do YOU think is the perfect quote for a Hamilton tattoo??

[@ChrisAndClay]

Oh that's a tough one! There are SO many great lyrics. What are your top choices?

[@MicharlMcGarry-pn1fd]

Interesting...

[@sebastiaohenriqueissa223]

🥰❤🌈👞👞

[@messyvlogsandstuff8201]

ANSWER PLEASE IM 10 AND WHO DID U PLAY

[@ChrisAndClay]

Hey there! I am a swing which is like an understudy. I understudy multiple roles like Samuel Seabury, George Eacker, Charles Lee, James Reynolds, Mr. Schuyler, and more! :)

[@excxmoody]

skittles so much better

[@excxmoody]

wish I had painted the old den like I wanted, would've really set the mood.
