He was the Tsar and such in Anastasia and understudied Gleb! I saw him in both of those tracks and he BLEW ME AWAY! I'm so excited for him to get to be playing a lead!
Gavin and Tally are incredible! Holy crap. Not 100% sold on this Belle yet. She has one of those voices that can't quite get the note spot on and it sounds slightly flat till her vibrato kicks in. Could just be this recording though. Love the inclusive cast, though! Also, not sure they need the extra 'ahhs' at the end of Human Again. Unless it is going to open to a wider ending chord it seems unnecessary to just repeat the same chord they've already been holding. 🤷♂️ I can't wait to see more of this production. BatB is one of my all the favorite musicals!
Don't get me wrong, Belle sounds beautiful. However, I'm not a fan of how she belts out a change in me. I know it's a very belty song but I always hear the end as a softer, more accepting way.
I feel like that’s more of a music director decision, or maybe a mix of both her interpretation and the music team’s visions? it is an interesting choice though, not the choice I would’ve made but I respect it, and I’m sure she’ll have more opportunities to show her softer side in that song and many other musical moments.
The ending to “A Change in Me” was created for Ashley Brown, when she started in Disney’s On the Record: A Musical Revue. That song was also in there, and that had a similar ending, but extended. ruclips.net/video/tFn7SFJvJZ8/видео.html Also, “Is This Home” had a quieter ending, so it ended up not being two soft ballads in a row. My opinion: This also goes for “Evermore,” if Beast can’t do two grand endings in a row. Proof (for Finale Act I): ruclips.net/video/s6BiSTFRJlw/видео.html
Yes yes yes yes yes, especially since the script was altered somewhat for the tour. Just a bit of polish here and there, beef up Gertrude's arc, give Oh The Thinks the Greatest Show treatment, and it could be simply splendiferous!
I live like 15 minutes away from Paper Mill Playhouse, and my mom wanted to see it. Unfortunately, like most people, she was turned off by the price. The cheapest tickets were $110, so we're not going. 😔😔
I'm not sure where you were looking, but the official website shows the cheapest tickets are $87. If you call the box office, you'll avoid online service charges. There may be cheaper tickets available too for certain performances. papermill.org/show/disneys-beauty-beast/
Its really good to see Gavin lee play one of my favorite characters again like Bert is one of them 😬im not seeing beast needs to get hes voice low ah not seeing Gaston Gaston voice is low ok lefuo its bad
No, this is the cast rehearsal for Paper Mill Playhouse’s production of Beauty and the Beast which is located in Millburn, NJ. I have seen a few musicals there and they are top notch, Broadway style productions. I’m going to see this one too with my boyfriend, since this is my favorite Disney fairy tale.
It still looks...still looks like a pretty white production. When you do a Disney fairy tale this is always going to come up cause fairy tales can be played by anyone.
So are they supposed to cast due to talent or color? Should they specifically choose someone for the color of their skin or should they cast who they feel is most talented for the role? I am honestly just curious of your opinion because I really do not understand this. Wouldn't it be worse to cast someone just because of the color of their skin instead of based on talent? I feel like that would feel like a slap to the actor who got cast because its literally saying they arent good enough for the role but they are just their token colored person. Makes no sense to me
Being honest, I can’t stand that chip costume. That little kid seems great. It’s a shame that he was shoved in a box. I think that the broadway production should use puppets instead.
Gavin Lee seems born to play Lumiere. That is such a Gavin Lee role.
It fits him so perfectly
Gavin Lee Is Always Playing Such A Familiar character(Squidward,Bert,Lumiere,Grinch)
And now Gavin Lee reprises the role of Lumiere in a new production of Beauty and the Beast currently on a UK Tour
Just saw it yesterday and my god he’s good 😂
I saw him tonight in London and he was literally unreal, complete excellence. Total masterclass in comic timing!
Asian girl magic!!!!! WE STAN ASIAN ACTORS/ACTRESSES
WE STAN EQUALITY
I am a sucker for these rehearsal-type videos
Kaelin Viera same
I’ve never seen a professional production of this show and, let me tell you, when I saw Chip I GASPED
😂
Ashley Chen aha I’m sure you were great!!
Ashley Chen my school did I production too! I was babbete(the feather duster) love this show!😊
Yeah it is! I just read over my comment wow I made so my spelling errors😅
Looks up Tuts Houston Beauty and The Beast
ok yes Gavin Lee killing it but also Tally Sessions? I’ll have to look him up because oh my god I love his voice!!
He usually plays ensemble like in War Paint and School of Rock. Nice to see him playing lead
He was the Tsar and such in Anastasia and understudied Gleb! I saw him in both of those tracks and he BLEW ME AWAY! I'm so excited for him to get to be playing a lead!
Kaelin Viera he’s in one of my favorite musicals ever, Yank the Musical. It’s incredible!
NotVeryIconic_ Username I’ll check it out!!
He was fantastic as Count Ipolitov/the tsar when i saw him in Anastasia! I could listen to him sing Stay I Pray You on repeat forever

Gianna Lisa Parlapano GIANNA HI HAHA. i was about to comment about antonio! he’s amazing!!

I saw this show twice when I was young, and it was 100% what got me into musical theater. I hope to see it during the bway revival.
Gavin is doing Gary Beach proud ❤️
Molly Rushing!!!
Love seeing Molly and Tally again!
IT’S THE GUY FROM THE SCHOOL OF ROCK VLOGS also Gavin Lee is perfect for lumiere also This Is So Cool!!!!!
This is awesome. I’m in a local production in Australia at the moment. We open at the end of next month. Absolutely love this show.
Tally sessions was in school of rock the musical and Gavin lee was in spongebob the musical wow broadway’s in the papermill playhouse
I heard the show may have gotten negative reviews when it first premiered. If this could get a revival, so can seussical hopefully...
Yes seussical needs a revival
Not going to happen
Yes yes yes yes yes, especially since the script was altered somewhat for the tour. Just a bit of polish here and there, beef up Gertrude's arc, give Oh The Thinks the Greatest Show treatment, and it could be simply splendiferous!
The guy that plays Gaston reminds me of Neil Patrick Harris
Aw, this looks so good! I'm hoping for more footage!
I'm simple. I see Gavin Lee, I click
This is going to be liiiiiiittttttt
Mackenzie M like Lumiere lol
Squidward is now Lumieré? Can't this be any perfect?
First four legs, then four arms.
Godfather:
Mrs. Potts:
"Look how they massacred my boy."
Gavin’s in it ok I need to see it
The harmonies during 0:34 are absolutely angelic.
I just watched this play there yesterday it was the best
Gavin!!!
1:56 YES GAVIN!!
I’m seeing it with my choir! So excited!
Tally Sessions from Yank: The Musical?? Dreams do come true!!
This makes me so happy. I love this show
I clicked cuz I saw Gavin then looked at the title and was like “WAIT WHAT?!” Lol
Thought that was john Barrowman in the thumb nail 😂
Holy moly! Belle is AMAZING!
Amazing voice but boring actress
@@bigred8432 I liked her acting skills for her Glinda audition for Wicked online.
Does this mean Gavin can’t play the role in the revival?
Some may transfer from this to the Broadway revival, so he could still play the role
I hope @yellohcards is right
This won’t run in paper mill for very long
Killer cast!
Miss Gavin as squidward 😔😔
And now Gavin Lee reprises the role of Lumiere in a new production of Beauty and the Beast currently on a UK Tour
I'm ready for this
I think lumiere is squidward from spongebob the musical
You are right my good man
More Videos Like This One Pls! ☺️
GAVIN LEE!!!!
So when does this start?
I’m crying at chip
God I LOVE Tally Sessions
I live like 15 minutes away from Paper Mill Playhouse, and my mom wanted to see it. Unfortunately, like most people, she was turned off by the price. The cheapest tickets were $110, so we're not going. 😔😔

@@cutypie12 I just checked. Tickets are actually starting at $47, so she must've been looking at the good seats. Thanks!😃
Me, going to NY next week: goes to NJ
Hell ya squidward
This is truly colourblind casting :) if she’s the best Belle (and she has a beautiful voice!) then hire her :)
Yesss gavvinnn
Can't wait!
GAVIN LEE YES
Dang Tally

Its really good to see Gavin lee play one of my favorite characters again like Bert is one of them 😬im not seeing beast needs to get hes voice low ah not seeing Gaston Gaston voice is low ok lefuo its bad
Wow I’m so INCREDIBLY excited for this show!!!
Sweet lord...halleluja...Wow Wow Wow. Did i say Wow Already.
Is this the cast for the revival?
Sam Mellemstrand probably not but they should be! This production’s at the Paper Mill Playhouse In NJ
Ben Tyler Cook for Gaston ?
someone get me a plane ticket to new york. NOW
is this the production thats transferring to broadway?
No, this is the cast rehearsal for Paper Mill Playhouse’s production of Beauty and the Beast which is located in Millburn, NJ. I have seen a few musicals there and they are top notch, Broadway style productions. I’m going to see this one too with my boyfriend, since this is my favorite Disney fairy tale.
OMG
The beast would be such a good Marvin in falsettos
this is an incredibly late response but he was actually an understudy for the OBC
Oh that poor kid in the box
*insert Lady Gaga gif* I love this cast already...could easily be in the revival!
Did I hear this was coming back to broadway?
1:56
An Asian Belle and an African American Lafoo? WE STAN
Great looking content. Assume you did a great deal of your own coding.
How goes Mrs Potts hold her arm up for so long?
It's not hard. I played Mrs. Potts and it's not as bad as you'd think.
It still looks...still looks like a pretty white production.
When you do a Disney fairy tale this is always going to come up cause fairy tales can be played by anyone.

Fred Gwynn Belle and Babette are Asian and Lefou and Chip are Black....
Just to make sure, this ISN’T Disney, right?
i m u s t s e e
I love this casting but can we just put Nick Adams as an understudy for Gaston at least
Being honest, I can’t stand that chip costume. That little kid seems great. It’s a shame that he was shoved in a box. I think that the broadway production should use puppets instead.
Where are the black people?
That beast and Gaston are #garbage. Feel bad for Gavin Lee, having to carry the weight of the entire show on his back.
Her acting is mehhh.
Ugh this is one show that did not need a revival. I spent a summer playing the wardrobe and I would be perfectly happy to never be in it again.
The planned Broadway production are happy not to cast you
My god that Gaston is terrible
so many white people
