    It's going to be SO strange when we eventually get different actors playing Anya and Dimitri, cause no one will be able to recreate the chemistry that Derek and Christi have created here. I want to see this show so badly

    • @alexabenitez2251
      @alexabenitez2251  7 років тому +45

      Megan Woodard OMG I can relate 100% to what you just said😢😢 It is going to be just insane in the worst way 😢 I just hope they play Dmitry and Anya for a long time like Derek said the Opening Night:"This is what we're going to share with people for years and years to come! "

    • @lillyottaviani3215
      @lillyottaviani3215 7 років тому +8

      I wanna see it with them in it, hopefully before different actors play them.

      Their chemistry onstage is wonderful ;_; I watched the musical a week ago. Derek fits the part of Dimitri so well!

      Megan Woodard I saw the musical after I saw the Macy’s thanksgiving day parade performance, I was captivated
      I was in New York at the time so I thought I might as well see it.
      I never thought I could be as addicted to it as I am now!

      @sjespiritu5421 6 років тому +10

      Zach and Christy did a pretty good job when I saw it! But looking back on these videos of Christy and Derek...Ugh the original cast is almost always my favorite because anything else just seems not natural.

  • @Catellana

    I like how you can hear Derek's voice better when they sing together... in the soundtrack you can't hear him as well as you can here and his harmonies are just so good!

    • @alexabenitez2251

    Anyone catch how when Christy started singing she adjusted her mic and Derek copied her right after? 😃 that little gesture made my day. They feed off of each other ☺️

    Christy always gives 110% percent. Such a strong, beautiful, talented actress. I am so lucky to have been able to see her on Broadway before the show closed.

  • @harshmnr
    @harshmnr 7 років тому +335

    At 2:01-ish that "Hey" was so adorable that I literally paused the video and physically got off my bed and started doing squats.
    Like honestly though what is wrong with me, at the point where my immediate reaction to something without even thinking is to get up and do squats? I don't even know why that's the first thing I did, like I need serious mental help...XD

    It was June
    I was ten
    I still think of that day now and then
    A parade
    And a girl
    And a crowd of thousands
    She sat straight
    As a queen
    Only eight
    But so proud and serene
    How they cheered
    How I stared
    In that crowd of thousands
    Then I started to run
    And to call out her name
    As the crowd on the road went wild
    I reached out with my hand
    And looked up
    And then she smiled
    The parade
    Traveled on
    With the sun in my eyes
    She was gone
    But if I were still ten
    In that crowd of thousands
    I'd find her again
    You're making me feel I was there too
    Maybe you were
    Make it part of your story
    A parade
    A parade
    Passing by
    Passing by
    It was hot
    Not a cloud in the sky
    Then a boy
    Caught my eye
    In a crowd of thousands
    He was thin
    Not too clean
    There were guards
    But he dodged in between
    Yes he made himself seen
    In that crowd of thousands
    Then he called out my name
    And he started to run
    Through the sun and the heat
    And crowd
    I tried not to smile
    But I smiled
    And then he bowed
    I didn't tell you that
    You didn't have to
    I remember!
    The parade
    Traveled on
    With the sun in my eyes
    You were gone
    But I knew
    Even then
    In a crowd of thousands
    I'd find you again
    Your highness
