I am a costumer for our local community theater. It was my privilege to costume Jordan when he was a teen in our Apprentice Player youth productions. We are so proud of him and thrilled, but not surprised, for his success. It is a real joy to have been a minor part of his growth Into a fantastic singer and actor. ❤️

[@BrianStarksgoogleprofile]

Amazing! Better than the movie! This man's performance, the orchestra, the maids voice, just remarkable!!!

[@seikibrian8641]

Considering the relatively small role that the "Freddy Eynsford-Hill" character had in the show, he really got an amazing song to sing. And the singer here does a masterful job with it.

[@annawan2518]

He is my favourite character and this gentleman sings and looks the part, my other favourite is Jeremy Brett.

[@seikibrian8641]

@@annawan2518 I thought Jeremy Brett was terrific in the film version. I didn't realize until recently that he plays Sherlock Holmes in the British TV series of the same name. Unfortunately, the director of the film had many of the actors dubbed, even though they could sing just fine. Jeremy Brett was one of them; his songs were dubbed by Bill Shirley.

Jeremy Brett was a young and underrated actor at time. Unfortunately the producer did not use Brett's version to his dissapointment ( Same with Hepburn's version being dubbed over) . Unfortunate considering that J.B. had a very rich singing voice .

I had the privilege of seeing Mr. Donica perform this live on stage, and it was one of the greatest live performances I'd ever heard. The recorded version is also terrific. I don't believe any man has ever acted this song better. Bravo!

[@williamgardiner2010]

Really? Bartlett Sher really messed this one up. Mr Donica dashed around, chewing the scenery in the most attention grabbing performance I'd seen in years. Sorry Trevor Nunn's legendary production for the National Theatre and Moss Hart's original London and West End productions had Freddy Eynsford-Hill properly melancholy with young love. Not desperate for audience applause.

[@andyskurna1407]

Really? You think "young love" is melancholy? How very sad you must be. Mr. Donica nailed it! He was full of the invincibility of young, positive, exuberant bravado of a man who thinks he has just found "the one." That is the interpretation that rings most true for me.

[@tobiasstudtheol]

Both you are right. Love is always connected to melancholy at least if it comes to art. The most beautiful love songs ever (by John Dowland) where complete melancholies. If it comes to the human side, as which I would see the acting here, he is young and vibrant thinking he just met the one and only but is she? That will always be the question, will my partner be the right person for me.

@@josephdockemeyer4807 Personally, I think it’s because Prof. Henry Higgins is very much a terrible and (imo) abusive character to Liza and who’s even been viewed upon by the other characters in the original play as a flaming misogynist and misanthropist. Comparatively, Freddie is much ‘nicer’ to Liza, even if he may be a social-climbing bum and quite a bit duller than Liza or Higgins.

You can say what you want about supposed "greats" who've played this role in the past but really, has anyone ever done it better? Not just "singing" a song, but becoming "Freddie" & totally performing in character.

Splendid, absolutely splendid, a true show stopper!

God has given people talent, has been and always will, its up to individuals to hone those talents. This sort of singing takes discipline, something that many of today's youth seem to avoid! Just look at dancing 70 years compared to today. Back then people had moves, now people just bounce which ever way. A good friend of mine once told me, there are no "Tone deaf" people, there are just people who arent "Toned trained" . There is greatness out there yet, people just have to want to be great and be willing to do the work.
