It's like he's not even acting.

The three words every actor wants to hear: "Sign him up." Thank you for posting this!! :)

i come back to this so often, he makes it sound like he's really remembering it all and he's reacting to his own words. they saw this scene over and over again and he still made them cry, what a talent

I would have loved to have seen the dance section of his audition. His acting was spot on and he's the most handsome "Paul" I've seen. I love how this show resonates with young performers some 43 years after the original production.

His crying made me cry on cue.

I can't count the number of times I've watched Jason's audition and it brings me to tears every time. Beautiful!

The first time I saw this I literally thought he was telling the casting directors a story about his life before the actual audition. Amazing.

We watch it every year my musical theater class

Why is this guy not IN EVERYTHING!!!!!!!

Can't watch this without crying. I worked as a chorus boy in the Jewel Box Revue he's talking about. I wasn't in drag only because I never had any interest in it, but many of them were terrific talents and all of them were perfectly good performers.

This audition slays me every time! He's SO good. Jason Tam is the best Paul I've ever seen.

As a former Paul, Jason was amazing! He of course made me and all of them cry. But part of their crying was for Nick Dante, and Michael, and all the people we lost to AIDS. And by contrast, how young and hopeful and healthy this young generations is. It's was just so touching and nostalgic and bitter-sweet...

I caught this documentary accidentally some years ago and it moved me so much. The work, talent and dedication of these performers blew my mind. This scene with Jason brought me to tears because as much as he was playing the part of Paul you know a piece of him was there as an Asian/Pacific Islander in the arts. I'm sure he was amazing in the role and those who got the opportunity to see him were fortunate indeed.

When I saw this documentary in the theater I was in tears watching this.

I'm so toxic to myself, I watch this video every time I want a good cry. lol

I saw the entire documentary he was the most unassuming ...so natural ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Oh.....I cried.....I am a father of two, I understand Paul's father. Good work, Jason.

Why do I cry everytime I watch this? Damn you, Jason Tam!😭😭😭

I watched this in class and I had to watch it again! It was so powerful and just amazing..

I was debating what documentary I wanted to watch today and I came so close to clicking off this one. SO GLAD I didn't! That moment when Jason auditioned for Paul was one of the most enthralling things I have ever seen in my life. I must have gone back and watched it 10 times already, and now I am on youtube searching for other work he has done. It was so entertaining and emotional watching him do that scene, and then to get the reactions he got from the casting directors was the icing on the cake. Ngl my t-shirt is still soaking wet.

I've seen this so many times and I always cry. I just love Jason Tam.

I cried...fantastic audition.

The first time I saw "Every Little Step" was in the theater when it came out. I was in tears during this scene.

The producers crying at the end is the BEST.

He played Marco on 'One Life to Live' for years & was acceptable but I NEVER knew he could act like this! Was floored when I saw this doc👏🏽

何度見ても泣ける✨I cry every time I watch this.

RIP to Jay Binder. Incredible casting director in the green shirt.

Jason makes me cry every time I watch this back...

Ohhhh missing Jay Binder with his impeccable memory for talent, and a soul.

Brilliant!! I've enjoyed crying with him, he is amazing!

HE NEEDS A HUG *pops out behind curtain, tackles him onto hug*

Holy shit! That was incredible acting!

Jason is one of the best Paul's I've ever seen. My heartt 🥺

This is so cathartic because I needed a real good crying right now.

Amazing! Perfect. [This is the first time I am seeing this or that I have ever heard of him. I will look for more!]

And no ego whatsoever.

Love this. Thank you for sharing.

This is how you get it. *sniffs*

Brilliant.

But then I saw him in the show and it was very boring in comparison. The director took all the emotion out of it.
