Gavin Creel, MAMMA MIA! Medley - MCC MISCAST24

[@early.morning.illustration7306]

It’s almost like he was trying to combine everything he loved about performing, as if he knew there might not be another performance. He interacted with the audience, mentioned hair, encouraged the singers, and gathered everyone to dance together. This performance almost reads as a goodbye. Rest in peace Gavin Creel 💚

[@picardythirds]

😭

[@bernardfarquharson3275]

Well he was diagnosed after this performance. That’s what’s so scary, this happened so fast…

[@elisa_lily]

Unfortunately the kind of damn cancer he had is unbelievably aggressive,fast and almost always diagnosed too late. This is also what's been driving me crazythis past week,not only gone too soon,but he had to face all that,that beautiful soul

[@bernardfarquharson3275]

@@elisa_lily exactly. The saddest thing about this video to me is not that it sounds like he’s saying goodbye. It’s that he didn’t know he was dying when he sang this.

[@elisa_lily]

@@bernardfarquharson3275 l know....think that at least he got to perform one last time at Miscast,that we all know he loved,in a beautiful joyful way. What a gem he was! Take care

[@angelayu1633]

This performance exudes joy. It's so healing to see him having the time of his life here. He was so so loved

[@Arthurpyms]

What an absolutely beautiful performance -so much vibrant and life!

[@TheSongwritingCat]

This is the first video of him I've been able to watch since his passing and I still ended up in tears. He was so full of life.

Helplessly laughing at "I was in Hair, MOVE!"

[@olivinebranch]

Yes, I've been broken hearted... Blue since the day we parted... My, my, we will never let you go.

[@nashesse]

to have this rare ability to connect an entire room full of people and bring them to their feet; his infectious light and warm heart knew no bounds. the fact that we are remembering him for his kindness, affection, and generosity, and not only for his truly stupendous well of talent. the rarest and the greatest of them all. rest in peace, dear gavin. you only come around once in a lifetime and we were among the luckiest to witness it.

[@lenastan7530]

such a beautiful, joyful man

[@PeytonBliley]

Oh Gavin, you absolute ray of sunshine, your spirit and your talent will be missed. Thank you for uploading this when you did, MCC

[@tammybabich]

been rewatching this video nonstop since it was posted. still haven't been able to watch it without the water works immediately starting, but at least i find new reasons to smile each time. from gavin's "i was in hair, move!", to the giggle as he jumps on the stairs, to him pulling up the other singers to make sure they were all center stage with him. what a special performer and person. thank you gavin for inspiring us in so many beautiful ways. we'll miss you 🤍

[@2034916]

What an incredible voice and presence he had. His death is heartbreaking.

[@stephenholmes5362]

Was absolutely blown away to read of his passing. So much talent in every part of his being! The angels up in heaven are getting the show of a life time from Gavin. Rest in peace sweet man!!

[@neversaygoodluck]

“Watch my choreography!!!!” God, this man radiated so much joy.

[@themripley]

Light is the word that springs to mind for Gavin. He was a light in Eloise, a light on the stage and by all accounts a light to everyone who met him. What a legacy, I'm just so sorry he left it so soon. ❤

[@anabritelora]

I never knew Mamma Mia could make me so emotional. It’s been a week but I still can’t stop crying. Thank you for posting.

[@courtneybullen2012]

Hearing his name and/or one of his songs is still causing me to weep almost instantly.

[@tpquinn72]

Spreading joy as usual. You will forever be missed, Gavin Creel. 💔

[@Charlotte-lq1or]

His voice always had such a wonderful, emotional quality. You feel every word - joy and sadness. A true legend. We'll never forget him.

[@BoyJazz]

Never knew there could be so much talent in one man , still can't believe you are gone Gavin .

[@hoping4nash]

Oh man. That was mere months ago. I paid to watch the full recorded version, and there was just so much joy. I still can’t believe it.

[@anonymoususer12345-o]

Devastating news. Such a beautiful voice and an incredibly amazing performer. So talented and so entertaining. Cannot believe he is gone. What a massive loss. May his family, friends and fans be supported, and his legacy be remembered.

[@reallyquiterandom]

Oh Gavin, there'll never be another like you. Rest in peace.

[@MsADiez]

His joy is palpable. Wow, what a gift he was to the world ❤

[@arcivist]

I saw Gavin in Into the Woods a couple years ago and I instantly fell in love with him. He was such a huge inspiration to me and so many others. I also just saw Mamma Mia for the first time over the summer, and I became obsessed with it- I’m performing The Winner Takes It All at an event at the community theater I’m a part of this weekend. I had no clue that this crossover had happened, but it’s bringing me so much light in the news of Gavin’s passing. He truly was the greatest

[@ragtmt15]

Why am I in tears of joy for the love he brought!! Damn it it’s not fair 🥹💔

[@dpaste69]

Bringing joy up until his last breath. He was a marvel.

[@mcctheater]

Couldn't agree more!

[@daniellebelisle2446]

Nothing makes me more emotional than when someone brings an abundance of love and joy into the world. It is only more healing and heartbreaking knowing he is no longer here, though I am grateful he was here, and that we will have this ❤️

[@Arthurpyms]

Very beautifully said.

[@hnc52]

Only Gavin could get me to like Abba songs. Rest well, you beautiful, talented man.

The first tone of his voice already made me cry.

I still don't want to believe he's gone. Cancer sucks.

[@UndineOwens024]

I badly want to believe, against all evidence, that someone sent out the gentleman in the black beret (3:20) once Gavin started climbing on things to make sure he made it to stage in one piece 😊. Rest in art, you rambunctious angel!

[@lestmak]

Thank you for entertaining us Gavin. R.I.P.

Tears in my eyes… so tragic… he was amazing beyond words… thank you so very very much for posting this… I assume his last performance ?

Looking back on his website, he did a couple of cabaret performances in May out of state, but this was his last NYC appearance 😢

Any chance “Walk on Through” will be available for streaming? Or a live recording from the stage performance?

[@agarryking]

Brilliant!

[@flannerymonaghan-morris4825]

This is so haunting to watch, especially considering that it very well was likely to be his last ever public performance, though no one knew of it at the time (I think that maybe not even Gavin himself knew if it would be his last performance or not). There’s almost nothing here to suggest that he was going through what he would go through later. He certainly doesn’t look or act or feel sick at all, in any way. Strange how some cancers are just so asymptomatic or barely or mildly symptomatic that no one knows that they have gotten it until much later. God, fuck cancer. I hate it. HATE it. First it took Marin, now it has taken Gavin. Fuck, man, why does it have to take all of the good ones away from us?

[@anabritelora]

This was in April and he wasn’t even diagnosed til July. Everything just happened so fast… I still can’t stop crying.

[@schketchy]

Seeing as this performance is from April he probably had no idea… the cancer was discovered just two months before he passed. 😢

[@flannerymonaghan-morris4825]

@@schketchy makes me wonder…what if it was caught earlier, when it wasn’t so aggressive?

[@jlaud29]

This is the problem with sarcoma. It doesn’t necessarily present with symptoms until much too late. Fuck cancer.

[@riverebec1]

How is it possible that handsome healthy exuberant gifted young man could be taken by illness mere months later? I will never understand it. RIP angel.

[@HaunaMyKiki]

This is _not_ the performance of a man who only had 6 months to live. 😢

[@melissabrown6254]

Gone way too soon. Such a talented person. Wish Aaron Tveit had been in this. ❤I am not crying you are crying.....

I will never forget Wednesday, November 27, 2024 the date I found out that a REAL SUPERSTAR, my FAVORITE ELDER PRICE a.k.a Gavin Creel has passed away on Monday, September 30, 2024. I believe it was 1PM or almost when I saw Gavin Creel face and name on the post of PinkNews. I honestly remember his face and Name BUT I DID NOT READ the captions and the link's headline. I smiled and mentioned his name BUT when I read the link's headline, Pinknews :" Memorial for Broadway star Gavin Creel to be live-streamed in UK and US" I was in shocked But my face did not react or wrigkle my forehead, now I read the caption " The late star died aged 48." in few minutes I think I was in shocked but calm. Went on youtube to look for news and saw those videos. I did not count how many videos I watched when I started to become emotional and cried. Maybe to the video where the presenter mentioned Gavin Creel's Broadway and West End credits and mentioned "The Book of Mormon", because that's the only Musical I know he is in (I don't watch theatre musical videos. I'm not in to musical theatre BUT I'm thinking to discover more about musical because of Gavin Creel.) or I discovered him. Honestly I did not follow his theatre musical journey after watching him on youtube BUT I never forget his face and name! Just the role "Elder Price"!!! I have a crush on him, now I regret not watching him on youtube videos his interviews back then. For days I have been crying and crying regreting not following his Broadway Journey and learning more about him earlier. Last night Philippines Standard time I watched a youtube video of him with some of his scenes on the movie "Eloise"( few days ago when I saw it but did not watch it completely just last night. Did not know he has a Christmas movie with Julie Andrews.) He is very handsome and charming on that movie! I cried like he is my ex-Boyfriend who I just discovered his passing and I still love him 🤣 like that. seriousely I'm still broken hearted knowing that I cannot have that opportunity to see him on musicals, meet and have pictures with him. 💔💔💔😢😢 Gavin Creel, you are my favorite Elder Price! ❤️❤️❤️ 😢😢
