[@grookeymon]

Found this play from if I could tell her! and honestly it's perfect every time.

[@Shayesbel87]

I’ve always felt Connor was trying one more time reaching out with signing Evan’s cast and then he doesn’t know how to control himself with his anxiety so after that happened, he just gave up

[@alemobra5747]

it must've been really hard for andrew (evan) hearing "your mom isn't going anywhere, your mom is staying right here" ( 2:13:49) days after his mom passed away. I don't think his cry was 100% acting

[@adelinereacts]

Do we know the date on this tutorial/ whether it was after? I can't imagine how emotional that scene must've been every night, and he's said he didn't want to take time off, idk how he did it (idk how he did any of this in general lmao Broadway actors are on another level)

[@alemobra5747]

@@adelinereacts i dont think we do but i'm assumming it's after because his mom passed pretty early on his run i'm pretty sure

[@robineaparks]

@@adelinereactsaccording to Andrew, he debuted as Evan on his 17th birthday (May 7, 2019), though I’ve also heard he starts January of that year when replacing Taylor Trensch so it’s between January and May. And then his mom unfortunately passed away in August of that year

[@ryanstarlight8018]

I'm pretty sure that this was filmed at the beginning of his run (in February 2019 if I'm not wrong), so his mom was still alive then

[@ryanstarlight8018]

​@@robineaparksHe made his debut on January 30, he was 16 at the time.

andrew barth feldman's evan is my roman empire. the fact that his "waving through a window" and "you will be found" aren't on spotify makes me so sad

[@Maddieray11]

i never knew that the choreo had evan RUNNING AROUND during the hardest part of waving through a window??? shdhdhd

[@Gee-xb7rt]

Depends on who is doing it, Andrew's Evan I think started it, and Jordan Fisher did the same. Andrew is a remarkable story teller, his Evan is amazingly good.

[@blake_ilan]

@@Gee-xb7rtYeah no. Ben did it too. Just slower and less memorably cuz he wasn’t a literal teenager. Andrew also needs more literal steps to cover the same ground 😂

[@CarlAndres]

Thank you for this!! I've been looking for Andrew's run for ages now.

[@cameronsmiljan9374]

I've only just finished For Forever at the time of this comment but can I just say that Andrew B. Feldman's voice is legitimately BONE-CHILLINGLY good? Like damn, he can sing. Bravo to him!

[@fly2sky671]

Saw Andrew's performance on Broadway, it was amazing!

[@rana-hb3yt]

i really disliked deh before but andrew as evan makes a world of difference. the character is so much more believable and sympathetic, i feel like I actually get this musical now

[@ourtravelingzoo3740]

I prefer a voice like Ben’s because the contrast of him talking timid and singing confidently is relatable to me

[@ellajames4417]

welp re watching that online was just as emotional as in person. Job well done

[@Hypoanimations24]

we did You Will Be Found for my choir performance this year, love this musical so much.

[@UBGavin]

I hope there will be a Andrew Barth Feldman version of every musical

[@vgg31]

I saw him perform LSoH with Sarah Hyland. He was so cute

[@vlogs_with_bela]

Hamilton but instead of Lin Manuel Miranda it's Andrew

[@camholz2637]

i love how it changes to michael lee brown during you will be found for like, a half second lol

[@NerdsofTurds]

Omg I noticed that too, I'm guessing probably cause he was a minor.

[@dearevanhansenfanatic5313]

[@Buddie_shipper]

He’s my favorite Evan

[@juliaprice4508]

wow....I didn't really like DEH before this.....but now I'm like, damn, maybe it IS a little good! This hits a little! Thing is, I really prefer Andrew Barth Feldman's Evan to Ben Platt. In this version, the character just makes so much more sense, and is way more sympathetic. I sort of feel like Ben Platt will sacrifice story beats for a good note or belt...whereas Andrew Barth Feldman isn't performing that way. Like, take the "If you're falling in a forest" section of Waving Through A Window. There's a moment where we can hardly hear him, where he's totally in his mind, consumed by anxiety...he HIMSELF is confused...Whereas Ben Platt makes that line real loud and clear in his Tony performance. Like, Ben Platt is making sure the audience knows it's an important line, giving us all this metaphorical wink. Anyway, sorry if that was harsh. I just feel like Ben Platt is such a performer...but in my book, vocal chops should always serve the story-and not the other way around! Okay, back to watching.

[@juliashirokova8374]

idk man i don’t think most people come to broadway to listen to people mumbling

[@GG-zt1nt]

​@@juliashirokova8374 he wasnt rlly mumbling tho was he? i think what he means is that he prefers ppl who put acting above singing... Stephen Schwartz said the same thing

[@alemobra5747]

@@juliashirokova8374 he wasnt mumbling tho lmfao he's perfectly capable of singing that, proof is in any live performance or his live streams where he sang waving through a window, thing is, some ppl really act and some just... dont. If you wanna hear people sing and not act while singing, then go to a concert, not a musical THEATRE performace

[@Sof_rha]

Andrew is so talented!!❤

[@asparrrow]

peak musical

[@ginnykang943]

Is it just me or did the Evan in "You Will Be Found" switch to Michael Lee Brown toward the end for a second?

[@FansenEdits]

Yeah, I have no idea!

[@cecelia8885]

I always wondered about that... Maybe Andrew had a cold during this performance, so they used someone else for the kissing scene. Or maybe Andrew got delayed in the bathroom?

[@heatherdash4113]

andrew was 16-17 when he played Evan- not sure if this happened for every show but its possible they brought in a double because he was a minor(idk how old the girl was)

[@tylerjade5561]

@@heatherdash4113he’s back for only us and kisses her so i don’t think it’s that , but definitely wonder for sure why they switched for that end!

[@Behind_the_Curtain23]

1:10:44 Andrew says “ow” so I think he hurt himself and had to get replaced

[@jayvansickle7607]

I think I like Andrew better than Platt....even though he is probably trying to mimic some of the mannerisms.

[@jlasf]

The person who originates a Broadway role will always have impact on that part. Through the workshop process, the creators tailor the role to the strengths of that particular actor. It's hard to tell where the actor ends and the character begins. Ben Platt's natural twitchiness became an attribute of Evan Hansen. So, every future performer is going to carry on some of that legacy. To expand: some roles become completely intertwined with the original performer. And those performers "own" that role. Barbara Streisand in "Funny Girl." Robert Preston in "Music Man." Rex Harrison in "My Fair Lady." Ellen Greene in "Little Shop of Horrors." Other actors can do a great version, but they will never truly equal the original. I saw Lea Michele in "Funny Girl." She was great, but just doesn't have the comic talents of Streisand. (No one does.) So, Andrew isn't mimicking Ben; it's that Ben is an integral part of Evan.

[@jayvansickle7607]

@@jlasf that was my assumption

[@toastghost2448]

The direction was also very specific - Andrew Feldman said that even on his second to last performance he was still getting notes on how to perfect his acting. He talks about it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5-tq36qZb-ojqMsi=XrcG_W09Sqj9mw90

"the connor murphy" played multiple musical threater roles and was on broadway in the past, and also a tony winner producer? T_T its not his fault that the video is uploaded from a phone to youtube and it was probably already downloaded from somewhere and so its not a clear footage?
