Episode 1 - Forever 17: Backstage at TUCK EVERLASTING with Andrew Keenan-Bolger

[@MelErcoli]

tHE NEWSIES POSTER AND BEN COOK AND ANDREW IM CRYING

[@dorothynguyen7187]

Damn, him saying he's been working on it for 6 years for the musical to close done in like a month...

[@estherrosi-kessel5192]

doro of oz rip it deserved better

[@kiera.9318]

it deserves to still be on now.

[@kiera.9318]

Possfur was that the reason? i thought it closed because there weren’t enough box office sales.

[@TheNanaroo]

@@kiera.9318 it didnt have enough sales because of Hamilton which led to it shutting down. Hamilton closed a few shows that year

[@a.person4761]

It reminds me of Bonnie and Clyde :( both really good shows that shut down absurdly fast

[@rosalinamichele25]

probably the best quality vlog footage so far

[@張凱涵-m6w]

totally agree

[@jaylenebihag1886]

I’m p sure Andrew does photography as a hobby

[@yacyahhh1658]

Me: *sees Andrew,, sobs* mY sOn Also me: *sees Ben Cook,, sobs harder* mY OTHER SON

[@emilyramirez356]

Yacy AHHH same

[@yikesonbikes15]

LOOK AT MY SON

[@catherinemeadows8994]

More like my HUSBAND

[@reluctantlysmol4274]

ah, yes, im betting we all came here from newsies

[@taylorstrqfik]

Look at my son!

[@jenniferrose389]

2:43 I love how he still included something from Newsies!

[@natalieheath6904]

3:11 "so this does the trick and makes my dressing room smell like fruit loops"

[@carecahill8234]

I can't believe this show closed, it feels like a sin or something. AKB is everything, I had no idea he could sing like how he does in this soundtrack. It's amazing.

[@emilyramirez356]

CC_Inks yes

[@erickawong6554]

That's a legit camera. He and Casey Neistat should start a club

[@BaileyBrianne]

I'm LIVING for this video quality!! Yay this vlog is so great and I can't wait for the rest!!

[@graysonhart4105]

Same

[@bigfunjoshieb]

The way Andrew pronounces 'Tuck Everlasting' is my favourite thing. So adorable

[@graysonhart4105]

6 years for 3 weeks man I almost cried I miss this show

[@Izzy-Maurer]

This was so well filmed and well put together, but who expected any less from AKB? Can't wait for the next episode!

[@erikaj9337]

I feel like Andrew Keenan-Bolger was the OG backstage vlogger

[@patriciaroveredesanti4867]

I got to say that was very well edited video.I have watched several Broadway.com vlogs and this is the best in terms of image and editing quality.

[@henryleeactorsinger]

AKB is a great creator! Check out it his YT channel; it's beautiful.

[@Abbyneedsmetalhelp11]

im sorry but BUT WHO ELSE FLIPPED OUT WHEN THEY SAW THIS IN THEIR FEED?!?!? (i love AKB)

[@abialston8476]

ME

[@peytondeck6742]

Ya so cited for the movie version loved CRUTCHIE

[@sondersighs]

I kid you not, I discovered this for myself yesterday. I'm seventeen, and this could not have come at a better time in my life. I absolutely love this whole show, and for something that had taken SIX YEARS at least to produce, it is unfathomable how they could have shut down after 39 performances.

[@sarahannemunson2687]

I used to watch Andrew's vlogs back in '08. This blog doesn't disappoint!!!

[@SpectrumDiamond]

I love this vlog already! Since "Help!" and "Motel Citizen" ended, I needed this vlog. This and "Killing Time" are my favorites!

[@mollykotzin359]

WAIT MY HEART I WAS NOT READY FOR THIS

[@kcorona7715]

MINE NEITHER

[@nicolekenney2801]

I screamed so loud when I saw this in my subscription box

[@NatalieWalcott]

+Nicole Kenney SAME! My mom thought something was wrong!!

[@miracaaahalane]

I’m re-watching this series for like tenth time and I’m just C R Y I N G I’m SO SAD I couldn’t see it in-person. It deserves so much better! I love this cast and i love the songs and the set design and everything about it! It needs a broadway revival! Btw Andrew you’re the best :D

[@DonnaJulia]

I loved this new style! I'm so excited to see the rest of this series, I wish I could be there to see the show in person - it's going to be a great one! All the footage we have from rehearsals so far is incredible!

[@Random_Cosplayer_5678]

4:47 are we going to ignore the fact he’s drinking straight apple cider vinegar

[@kiera.9318]

him saying he had worked on it for SIX YEARS just for it to close after a month ish makes me so sad. it deserves to still be on now.

[@missezramay]

Gosh, this the most beautifully shot and edited backstage vlog thus far. AKB you are precious.

[@faithhernandez764]

Happy Tuck Day!!!!! (August 1 2020) I just watched the show and I’m literally crying

[@jonsingsbway5112]

Still so mad this show closed so soon! I saw it a week after opening and was blown away! Hopefully this show will get it’s due diligence soon!

[@simplycomplicated3262]

I love how high quality everything is, I'm so glad you chose Andrew! His film making skills are amazing!

[@SilkeIsUberFetch]

OMG I'M SO EXCITED FOR THIS!! :)

[@amandahatch9620]

I am so freaking excited to watch this vlog every week!!!!!!! If only it came more than once a week!! Tuck everlasting is one of my absolute favorite books and I love that it is now a musical!! If only I lived nearer to New York so I could come see this amazing show. The music I have heard sounds amazing and the cast is spot on!!!!!!! So excited!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@josilevitt1930]

Who else died when he mentioned newsies?

[@avapack9330]

4:49 he paused when he said non-stop guys, you know he had to consider making a Hamilton joke

[@emhaak1816]

THIS IS ALL IVE EVER WANTED AND MORE

[@66thebubblemonster]

Already the best quality vlog I've ever seen on this channel, and not just because of the camera! He's fantastic! This is exactly what I want to see from a backstage vlog :')

[@BekkaRest]

Wow! The editing in this is amazing!!! I've always loved all the vlog series - but this is incredible! Keep up the good work!! I'm EXCITED!

[@nataliealvarado6155]

[@unawarefilm]

[@ktportalproductions7815]

Yep

[@jaydenrussell97]

[@alexswanyhair9207]

[@katelynslaughter6916]

I am so excited for this series! I can't count how many times I've watched the rehearsal footage!

[@justme-ew3ri]

I can't wait, Andrew's smirk is the cutest.

[@georgerichardson7505]

still waiting for a revival! This show deserves better!

[@MrCrowebobby]

From a dancer who studied in New York, but never made it to Broadway -- still earned a living at it for 23 years though -- I love your career . . . and what I can know of you from KZbin. Love that you're working regularly with a youngster like Ben (Cook). Keep up the great work and (I hope) happy life.

[@Sarah-jk1yw]

Love love love! I have a feeling this may be one of my new fav vlogs!

[@AbbyGirlJ]

This was SO SO great!! Can't wait to see more of these vlogs!

[@yasminegarcia2240]

Yay! I was hoping they would make one for Tuck Everlasting !

[@hannahwelch1619]

I've been waiting on this,I'm so excited!!! I just got done watching it and now I'm going to go continue reading Jack & Louisa Act 1.

[@Abbydwyer256]

I'm seeing it in the 28th! I'm unbelievably excited!

[@samipopcornpup9161]

Words cannot express how much I'm already in love with this vlog series!!! Ahh!!!! I forced myself not to watch this until I did my homework, so thanks Andrew Keenan-Bolger for giving me motivation!

[@Tsukikochibi]

Andrew is adorable. I look forward to watching this vlog.

[@ammylover1]

Also love the camera you're using takes it from a normal vlog to a high end vlog

[@dhs09066]

He is so amazing!!!

[@dustymew]

I'm so incredibly excited for this soundtrack (closest I'll get to seeing the show). It sounds AMAZING.

[@rebeccalucysmith904]

Yay! My dreams have been made, so excited for these vlogs! 😆

[@lacey6598]

Omg you are so amazing and I am so excited to watch the vlog every week I hope I will get to see the show soon because I am obsessed with the book and the cast is amazing

[@PaytonClare13]

I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW

[@AdamOfIngolstadt]

This show is so underrated. I know wholesome historical shows aren't for everyone, but I think shows like this and Anne of Greengables deserve better

[@SoSBxo]

Andrew is adorable, and this is such a HQ video! I can't wait for more!

[@sharron74]

I love this and AKB so much!!

[@gabby222my]

I love the updated video quality and everything and the dslr camera. i am a photo geek as well

[@CXLVIII]

It’s so strange to hear him not say “hi I’m Andrew-Keenan Bolger and I play Crutchie in Newsies Live.”

[@rebekahbrown2560]

[@maggiee.3297]

Wait. That background music at 1:44. Is that the one he used in Andrews Blog?!!?!!??!

[@theatreandbeautylover2489]

[@roboat5107]

I just finished this show as The Man in The Yellow Suit and I’m binging this vlog bc idk how to cope with this show being over :(

[@dreenisforeva]

[@startobekinzzz7079]

Love you Andrew !

[@BrunaChaves09]

I NEED the cast recording!

[@lovetolovefairytales]

Ditto.

[@elizabeths1052]

I might have had to pause it at the Crutchie mouse doll cause I remember when they got those dolls and I might have cried a bit. but I'm so glad AKB finally has a vlog!

[@MissNLucero]
