About Young Sheldon:
It’s 1989 and 9-year-old Sheldon Cooper has skipped four grades to start high school along with his less-intellectual older brother. As he struggles to be understood by his family, classmates and neighbors, his mother arms him with the best tool she can come up with: reminding bullies his dad is the football coach and his brother is on the team. His twin sister doesn’t share his exceptional mind, but she has a much clearer vision of what life has in store for the young genius.

A nine year old kid reciting Shakespeare that well is incredible. Iain is a brilliant actor!

[@londonhasfallen8606]

And they said school didn't tech you anything.

[@rachelsingermacdonald]

No kidding! That's impressive!

[@bg357wg]

If y’all didn’t know, Iain loves theater

[@aktipsandtricks7819]

When I was 10 I got to audition for the Beach Drama day camp and for the audition I did that monologue and got in, & it’s all thanks to Sheldon 🎉

[@jollyquinn430]

Ññèbewnñbnkj@AK Tips and Tricks Did you simply re-act this scene ..like copying mimicking Sheldon? :D Imagine someone would've said: Seems oddly familiar but well done! 😂

[@knowledgegathererdraftsave1979]

Just goes to show that Sheldon had many great gifts and talents beyond just science. Ian Armitage is a very talented young actor.

[@lysmarie5405]

@Thou Swell pretty sure we're supposed to find him annoying lol

[@alanvalencia8585]

@Thou Swell lol

[@anuragkumargupta8313]

@Thou Swell that's how good he is

[@jf7098]

On that note, it's Iain. I can be annoying too.

[@metro121482]

Adult Sheldon mentions having perfect pitch several times in TBBT. And he sings when he's drunk. And let's not forget Soft Kitty.

[@anhad7001]

Sheldon is an all rounder a biologist, a mathematician, a physicist, an actor, a musician , a paperboy and much more

[@mrmucro2704]

He is a miserable paperboy.

Sounds like future Johnny Sins in the making.

Imagine if adult Penny, aspiring actress, could see Sheldon performing like this as a child. She'd be so jealous!!! He could act, sing, AND dance!

[@benlange7124]

Literally, he can outmatch her in everything she tries

[@jezztinelnseth5083]

I wish this young man many more projects, movies with him as the main character. He's more than a young Sheldon ❤️

[@juhikamath]

Sheldon's dancing skills as child was 💯

@Christopher Bingham on the "flamingo tango"? 😁😂😂

@@SkliTzz.O_o Hopefully show business won't chew Iain up & spit him out like so many others.

[@perfectchanges]

One of the few times Sheldon's teacher enjoyed his participation in class

[@suligoeshard]

I love it when actors portray actors. There's just something amusing about when a character who doesn't seem at all like the artsy type does acting because the actors are always so good at acting.

[@YellowBear-kx1ff]

Don’t forget Daniel Hilliard from Mrs Doubtfire, who is a former voice actor.

[@benlange7124]

I love Iain's voice, he's such a terrific singer

[@DaleEfti]

He's got the voice of an angel

[@Ragib925]

I've been on this young sheldon snippet marathon and I gotta say, the 12 year actor playing sheldon is a true gift.... Take a bow!

[@abigailwelch2453]

I've got to say Iain Armitage did a fantastic job with young Sheldon. He really brought Sheldon to life.

[@soniatheresasharma9408]

my gosh i loved this scene, his singing was amazing and not to mention how adorable!!😍😍❤

[@shubhuful]

In Big Bang, Sheldon approaches Penny to teach him acting! But here they are showing that he already did something about it!

[@jf7098]

Iain and Jason Alexander give such a great performance and a perfect feel good scene. I can't wait to see what Iain Armitage has in store for the world.

[@alexisalibrandi2871]

This actor is so amazing for a young child I am amazed how good he is for his talents he accomplished a lot for a young actor as well

[@ritz2001998]

I want a full version of Young Sheldon singing ‘Don’t Cry For Me, Argentina’.

[@emiliobello2538]

I wonder if Texans love Argentina

[@SymphonyBrahms]

@@emiliobello2538 They have cattle ranches and cowboys in Argentina, just like in Texas!

[@sweetie3.145]

He is an amazing actor and an amazing singer.

I think this was more like Ian showing off his talent and forgetting he is sheldon for an episode haha

[@Greekhistoryyy]

sheldon was so cute in season 1. definitely a baby

[@spencerhundertmark9262]

I miss my old science teacher, he was named Mr. Cooper, he was the best teacher I have ever had, he made me know how to use my knowledge.

Ian is such a good actor, he can act like someone acting.

[@sirenhunter321]

Sounds weird, doesn't it! When you're acting while acting!!

[@hope-sf7cs]

So ur telling me Sheldon could act, sing, tap dance and so splits 😲😲.... Geez what happened to old Sheldon

[@dodixaber8968]

Old sheldon actually could still do most of those thing. He could act as his mother when penny wanted to practice acting with him. He could sing, and i believe he still could tap dance. It just that the writer had to make Sheldon drunk enough to show his artistic talent.

[@kentvesser9484]

@@dodixaber8968 Yep it was simply that those things weren't his passion. Physics and nerdy hobbies were his passion.

[@afiviaoayama8843]

He can sing so well too beside everything acting and all ❤😍

[@KannyValentine]

Georgie is always the most curious about his siblings, even though he pretends to act cool. He is a really caring big brother. I also see that the creators did not intend him to be so.

[@kwonsumi1740]

so lovely

[@nadineviljoen5189]

This is so adorable

Haha, Sheldon goes nuts over the choreography on TV, but has no issue adlibbing a duet with the teacher.

This shows what a good actor that kid is. Reciting from King Lear at such a tender age!!!

This is not sheldon, it's just iain The tap dance, singing and the spoken word (was it?)

[@tuicastro4431]

He really does know Shakespeare since 4 years old!

[@sarahlelys9268]

@Christopher Bingham I think Benjie meant that when singing and acting, Iain was having a blast, and that Iain has natural talent
