Wow, you get to work with Roger Bart!!? That guy is so talented. I worked on a show he was in MANY years ago called "You're a good man Charlie Brown." He played the hilariously lovable Snoopy. He did these cute things with his mouth that made him actually look like Snoopy. I'd love to know what he thought of working on the show and if he found it fun. That was the show that Kristen Chenoweth got her Tony for. They were like the king and queen of cuteness. I hope you are enjoying a well deserved vacation from working.

7:59 Same, Billy, same! 😉 That man is stuck with me for the foreseeable. I look forward to seeing your future adventures and endeavours too. I'm so thankful to this show for bringing the pair of you guys into my life. The BTTF Broadway journey has been a blast and I'm only sorry that I'm not there now in my role as head cheerleader for you both as it comes to an end. 💕

I know something will come up for you! Like you said you are known and respected. That speaks volumes of your character. Roger seems to be such a friend to you and you to him. That will be the hardest. There is another show out there for you and another family to adopt! Enjoy a few days off! ❤

Well, it is now the last one, Sunday. Chukkas to you all for a really beautiful and special one! You are so right though. Without enough structure backstage, it can become a very stressful environment - especially if it is a young company. The rules and etiquette are there for a reason - stick by them and all is lovely. The show comes first. There was a time when many felt their way. But anyhow, have a blast today and also celebrate at the party. May you all find amazing work! Love from Durban, South Africa!

I love the way you think, the things you value--they help the way I think. You're right, unstructured time can be a gift, too. And on to India! Omg. I think big trips are essential, when we can have them.

I'm sorry if this is hurting. I am retired after 35+ years of a career I loved. It's disorienting. & isolating. And A Gift. And one of the hardest things I've ever experienced. Re: knee replacement ~ I need both replaced as they are 'severly f-cked'. But I can't because of my back injuries that won't allow me to do the exercises that allow the knees to heal. So i am more dependant than ever on the damn wheel chair. Whine whine. And to Friend & Co-worker of our Billy? 'IKR?' He soothes the crazy, the grieving parts of me with all he does. His transparency, his self awareness, his joy, his kindness, his honesty & humor, his Billyness.

Hey billy watched your first video when you did a colaberation with jhon barr youtube channel. I enjoy every content you put out. and also I'm familuar with the content creator Katherine quin who she works on broadway as well. This is very special video, i love the raw emotions that you we're sad that this was over. Thanks for telling us the backstory of your life and career. I'll be here when you release more videos. stay safe and i'll see you when you post another video. What advise would you give to people in your audience, to make it someday in this theater industry? much love from your subscriber from N.Y Kevin Patino.
@billyhipkinsthealso-ran3 күн бұрын
Thank you, Kevin! The only advice I have is to just keep going. There is no destination, it's all journey. And clearly every job in theater ends eventually. The jobs that are meant for you will not pass you by, the jobs that are not you cannot make yours. Just keep going!

Omg *conservative, white man adventure* haha ... only you could just off the cuff say such an all true statement. So glad you get a break good sir and plllease, ensure you research heavily into the specialty more so sealing eyewear protection glasses for March India adventure. People get all impacting eye damage due to the contents of the products thrown-blown-chucked etc. I have heard there are specialty eye docs that even share about what to use. IF... if I may Billy, you know I am not a shoulda-woulda etc person on here...but may I really recommend you take non preservative eyedrops with you that are GEL formulation at the least .... there is ointment as well. Initially the latter *may* make initial eye sight a bit smudgy but it goes away fast. The gel is the optimal type --again it really is just a thick eye drop. Thank uuu for letting me care for ya haha
