ok WOW so a few things: their voices go so well together, i love how the song is stripped down like this, and i wish i could see them but living in a different country makes that a bit hard haha

🥑 0:40 Is the drummer playing an avocado shaped shaker?

[@belindamelissa4909]

Yes! I wanted to make sure I wasn't going bananas so I looked it up www.kosmic.com.au/remo-fruit-shake-shaker-avocado

[@ElaineVilarinho]

omg hahah what

[@Music2010Fanatic]

so many good vocal gymnastics WooH! And DAMN whatever David did at @2:39 ... Never heard about him before, but thank goodness waitress his voice to my ears. Angel

[@Iisabellllle]

how AMAZING is that bit!

[@jesseallinson4760]

I associate with that guy in the background so much haha

[@maddylee5317]

Drew Gehling is my favorite Dr. Pomatter, but gosh, David is fantastic here - the vocals at 2:39! ❤️

[@robhiro]

I need a cast recording!

[@hannab129]

Yes please! I just adore their voices and loved how they sounded, more than the Broadway recording to be honest🙈 even though that's a pretty unpopular opinion 😅 but maybe that's just because I knew this version first and saw it live with the original Westend cast 🤷🏼‍♀️ but yes please, I want a cast recording SO BAD! especially 'what baking can do' by katharine. I LOVED that song, when she sang it in the show!

[@sarahrutt4331]

So this show was AMAZING, I saw it with them and was absolutely astounded, truly brilliant. Sadly the show isn't getting enough people and has had to close the balconies and move everyone to the stalls. If I could I would buy every single ticket! Anyone who can should come see these brilliant people!

[@groovyc4580]

Sarah Rutt I saw it today, glad to say the place was almost sold out, fantastic atmosphere 👍🏼

[@hannab129]

Was sold out last week when I went too!

[@unrecoverableHIPSTER]

I saw it twice with the original cast and now I just can't wait to book another ticket! This show is addictive. Just perfect!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@unrecoverableHIPSTER]

I've seen them twice at the theatre and every time I hear them singing together I get so emotional! They're just perfect as Jenna and Dr. Pomatter!!!

[@EmilyZarza10]

The guy in the back with the dark blue shirt is MEEEE

[@alicefish8348]

i'm pretty sure hes dr pomatter in it now!

[@waitress1009]

Love love this and Katharine and David are great together 😍

[@jeffgarlick]

Nimble vocal gymnastics and talent for days, months and YEARS! SO nice to see Kat thriving! Where is Taylor Hicks these days? ;-)

[@theatregurll]

Performing in Shenandoah at Serenabe Playhouse outside Atlanta actually. Award winning regional theater. Before that? Who knows.

[@_charleywright]

Ive seen these 2 perform this show twice since it opened and I still get goosebumps with every song - they're amazing! Hoping to see it a few more times before Katherine leaves in June

[@ameliahoughton5240]

Her voice is soooo soothing

[@charlotted1321]

I think David is my favourite Dr potmatter, especially seeing waitess in London only two ago, epic cast, I got to Lucie Jones though and I think a tad better tbh

[@chlo3mak]

[@lucymckendry5232]

[@carebearmcgee]

Shady180 hm

[@IndraSchrage]

Am I the only one that got to know Katharine from Scorpion?

[@sireugenecourtney5797]

Yes.

[@jarrodashley-vanduser676]

Yes

[@ryanfaure3120]

I think we can all agree David is a wonderful Dr. Pomatter and, Katharine is definitely one of the best Jenna's!

[@robbie_nichols]

i am obsessed with david hunter's vocals from 2:34 till 2:41

[@CatchTheLoveBug]

David Hunter is literally the sweetest person ever. And Kat OMG!! On stage they have a craaaaazy chemistry and it's on fire. Love everything about this production!

[@hannab129]

They seriously were on fire on stage! They gave amazing chemistry... It was amazing to watch them together and I believed every detail of the story they portrayed! Their beautiful voices definitely help too 😁 but their acting was on point!

[@ktomcruz]

That double tuck, jump, and smile at 2:22 is everything.

[@ovaltinejenkins4530]

This is so cute! Just the way the both start bouncing at the chorus and look so giddy! I'm just- it's so- ugh- 😍

[@hannab129]

Probably hard to stay still with the usual choreo in the show 😁

[@poppystone4229]

It's a bad idea, me and you I know, I totally agree It's a bad idea, me and you I've never known anything so true It's a terrible idea, me and you You have a wife You have a husband You're my doctor You've got a baby coming It's a bad idea, me and you Let's just keep kissing 'til we come to Heart, stop racing Let's face it, making mistakes like this will make worse what was already pretty bad Mind, stop running It's time we just let this thing go It was a pretty good bad idea, wasn't it though? It's a bad idea, me and you It's a bad idea, me and you Hold me close while I think this through Yeah, it's a very poor idea, me and you Heart, stop racing Let's face it, making mistakes like this will make worse what was already pretty bad Mind, stop running It's time we just let this thing go It was a pretty good bad idea, wasn't it though? I know it's right for me It's the only thing I've ever done What if I never see myself ever be anything more Than what I've already become? I need a bad idea I need a bad idea I need a bad idea I need a bad idea Just one Heart, keep racing Let's make mistakes Let us say "so what?" and make worse what was already pretty bad This secret is safe No reason to throw it away when there's love to be had Hold me tight as I tell myself that you might make sense And make good what has been just so bad Let's see this through It's a pretty good bad idea Me and you

[@Doodahdoodles]

His lisp is incredibly attractive, damn. Such a good pairing!

[@angelotolentino4954]

Idk but david hunter reminds me of Kristoff uwu

[@oliviacaughey5974]

THIS IS MY DREAM

[@lill1tha525]

Damn I miss being at this show- take me back!!!

[@katies7415]

I CANNOT HANDLE THIS😭😍

[@Grillchips]

I've had the hots for David Hunter since I saw him in Kinky Boots in London. Such a charismatic and talented guy! Love his voice!

[@SarahMcAsey93]

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@abbygrace7727]

this is kind of an unpopular opinion, but i feel like Kat is a little overhyped as Jenna. like she has amazing vocals but it seems like she’s so focused on making her voice sound great and not showing as much emotion as, for instance Jessie Mueller. she has a beautiful voice she just doesn’t seem to show as much emotion as other Jenna’s have

[@alemobra5747]

eh idk about this. This is stripped back and they're not in the musical. This performance is supposed to be more about the song itself than the emotions or the story

[@Charlotte-uf2ti]

GIVE THE ENSEMBLE MICROPHONES PLEASE AND THANK YOU

[@ikanghelpmyself0912]

Oof. Fantastic!

[@autumnleaves-77]

Fantastic 👏

[@neo-xy3fr]

Favorite version

[@GabrielaCoro]
