[@ashleyrio2023]

i love these vlogs cause it makes me appreciate a lot of things about broadway that sometimes go overlooked. like when an understudy/standby goes on. everyone was so genuinely happy when jonalyn went on as karen and it just makes me feel so happy that they are so supported. my friend thinks that the leads all hang together and the ensemble are just kind of to the side BUT NO THEY ARE ALL BEST FRIENDS AND ALL SO IMPORTANT TO THE SHOW!!! this vlog is just so amazing and makes me appreciate the little things in the broadway world

[@thomasj5042]

PLEASE EXTEND THE VLOG!! I love this cast and this cant be the last episode!!

[@Boneslvr10]

i've so enjoyed watching these every week and getting to laugh along with you guys and learning more about the cast and crew, i'm so sad its over )):

[@nessa_leaves]

Legit though I hear Laurel. It depends on what frequency you hear at. People who lower frequencies tend to hear Laurel. People who hear at higher frequencies tend to hear Yanny.

[@kaylallala]

what if you can hear both?

[@ronin8952]

I can hear both

[@laurenring9721]

I hear both!

[@zachb1344]
