We saw Merrily We Roll Along a couple weeks ago and Lindsay was amazing. It was one of the best shows we’ve seen in a very long time.

[@samkorn4047]

Yes!!! I saw it a few months ago and everybody was amazing but Lindsay is a TRIUMPH. The acting and the singing both. An absolutely incredible performance and a standout even next to Jonathan Groff and Daniel Radcliffe.

[@NuaraCosta]

I was one of the Potter fans to go during the NYTW run of Merrily and fell deeply in love with this musical. I listen to the soundtrack at least once a week and have seen the show another 3 times 😂

[@DaenGaming]

I absolutely love Lindsay Mendez, her performance as Rose in Dogfight was probably the single most impressively emotional portrayal I've ever seen.

[@caneofsomaria]

Agree 100%. Her performance of Pretty Funny is devastating and makes me cry every time

[@GavinMcCollum]

I'm so glad she's getting recognigtion and attention! So deserved!

[@DanCrowleyNYC]

Loved her in Merrily, and loved her in Carousel - this woman is amazing!

[@DNTXPCTMCH]

I wish she had two segments. She's adorable

[@leahmoore6820]

Broadway legend.

[@lashendawest7509]

We love lindsay mendez

[@danielle7663]

We love you lindsay mendez and you WILL be winning the tony award, mark my words

[@clw4430]

I loved meeting this woman! Thanks, Seth!

[@matthewlambofficial]

Love you Lindsey!

[@benedixtify]

You can totally tell she's in theater; she is as smooth as butter on camera in front of an audience

[@carolinem4854]

As a Harry Potter fan who loves Broadway and musicals and theater and is a big Lindsey Mendez fan (dogfight!!) this show was pretty much made for me I’m so glad I got to see it finally!!

[@vb9677]

She’s so amazing ✨✨

[@karismaklysm]

She has been my personal goddess since Dogfight! ❤🎶 And we're not gonna mention 21 Chump Street?

[@susannahmcmanus4947]

Naomi!!!

[@chelsea.1234]

loved her as elphaba!! one of the best ever 💚🧹

[@DNTXPCTMCH]

If I go see Merrily We Roll, I'm going to wear a Sven hat. I'm not there to support Harry. I'm an adult, I've grown out of that. I'm there to support Kristoff 😂😂😂

[@user-tu8to8co6g]

Saw it last month - she was amazing! Going back in May!

[@TheJohn1567]

I watched you at the Tony awards and saw a side shot and I thought She's having a 2nd baby! Congratulations!

[@Rebecca-ez3nl]

MY QUEEN

[@Firegirlable]

I remember her from All Rise!!

[@johntrinidad8957]

Love her

[@cristinatolle7883]

Great musical!! I saw it in December I yelled 10 points to Gryffindor

[@davidt3956]

You didn't have electricity in California? ;)

[@davidt3956]

@@NuaraCostaReally? You figured that out all on your own? Mazel tov! Now, go ask your mommy for a sense of humor and then have somebody explain emojis to you.

[@davidt3956]

​ @NuaraCosta ROTFL. I made a joke, you came here and added a pedantic whine, I pointed that out and you're still whining. Thanks for the laugh. Stop? It's my thread. Learn how the internet works.

[@blackrose531]

someone cut a huge fart at 5:36

[@theColonelMoses]

Sounds like someone fell asleep at the fart machine. Then woke themselves up.

[@monkeyjb1988]

Oh jeez. Who wants to bet Dan's paychecks the biggest? Also, I just realize, there's 2 Sondheim revivals running at the same time. What a time to be alive 😄

[@ajlichty7399]

As Radcliffe is publicly a huge Sondheim fan and has been choosing projects based more on personal interest than paycheque I would be surprised if he was getting paid substantially more than his costars.

[@monkeyjb1988]

​@@ajlichty7399 Good point 🙂

[@claddagh1826]

the fact that she did seth meyers and jonathan groff did jimmy fallon is very suspicious, especially on a show night. i thought the show was doing really well . . . .

[@NuaraCosta]

the show is doing well lol check for tickets and you'll see maybe 1 or 2 left for a show the day of

[@mista11sparkluh]

Could be for Tony press?

[@danielle7663]

It’s doing great! they’re promoting for the Tony’s and to get even more ppl to see the show before it closes in july

[@treesny]

The show IS doing really well, and in fact has recouped. I think this 2nd publicity push has partly to do with the Tony Awards -- Mendez, Groff and Radcliffe were ALL NOMINATED, as was director Maria Friedman and the production itself -- and partly to remind people that the show's limited run has been extended to July 7. I saw it in February, and it's terrific... and I'm not normally a huge Sondheim fan. The three leads are individually and collectively superb.

[@amandastumpff5252]

It’s Tony Award press. This happens every year.
