      Raseon Hansen After watching Deaf West and some other deaf actors in various things, one of the most interesting things is how much use they make of their facial expressions, since a large part of sign language relies on that as well. They are so incredibly talented

    Josh Castille is my spirit animal, inspiration, role model, and dream. Having almost the same level of hearing loss as me, Josh is able to perform with outstanding amount of talent. I was born 80% deaf in one ear, and 12% deaf in the other, so I know what's like to only hear small amounts like Josh. The fact that he made it on Broadway makes me so outrageously proud and happy for him. His dreams are coming true, and hopefully one day, so will mine.

    I really cannot get over how well Josh conveys a massive slew of emotions with literally only his face, and occasionally signing style. In this one song, even only when he's playing Angelica, he perfectly conveys her deep sadness and regret covered by a somewhat performative joy for her sister, but also perfectly captures her short mocking/teasing tone at the "he's penniless he's flying by the seat of his pants" and "peach fuzz and he can't even grow it," along with all the combined emotions of Angelica realizing Eliza is completely smitten with Alex. Even her tiny aside to herself, "Nice going Angelica, you were right, you will never be satisfied" he drops the mask he had just had while introducing Alexander and Eliza. Truly every second, every line, every story beat is perfectly planned out and executed. Absolute mastery of the song and its characters.

  • @laurenweise3241

    I know a little bit of ASL (enough to appreciate this amazing rendition, I am now obsessed), but what is the sign he keeps doing where he takes his two fingers and and flips them around against the palm of his vertical other hand? He seems to do it on the words "at least," but what other uses does the sign have?

    • @internetboy774
      @internetboy774 8 лет назад +25

      Lauren Weise It's the sign for 'meaning/purpose/intent'. And example of this is, "What does that mean?" or "What is the meaning of _____?"

    • @internetboy774
      @internetboy774 8 лет назад +21

      Lauren Weise I think at the end where the lyrics are, "And I know, I'll never be satisfied." (In regards to her sister marrying Alexander) he may have been signing something along the lines of "This means I'll never be satisfied." But I could be wrong.
