This absolutely needs to be a real show. Or at least, Jeremy Jordan and Jonathan Groff absolutely MUST play romantic leads together in a show someday.

Also, Russian space lesbians!

Just WOW. The two women cosmonauts and the two male athletes actually sounded like songs from a real broadway show. I reared up when the man died. It was a video, I know. :-). But for a moment....

Seriously, the lesbians in space and sad gay luge athletes really touched me. So sad.. Brilliant! I love it!

im loving jonathan groff and jeremy jordan together so much its hurting me

LAURA BENANTI AND STEPHANI J BLOCK I JUST SPIT MY ORANGE JUICE EVERYWHERE THIS IS THE AMAZING THIS ENTIRE VIDEO

I really want a full length version of If You Were Gay (You Would be Fined).

"I played Peter Allen and got arrested at intermission." That line did me in. Kudos to the insane, demented genius who came up with that line. Although I am a little embarrassed that while I immediately caught Laura Osnes and Ashley Spencer's gags, it took another viewing to realize Sierra Boggess was Miss Spencer's duet partner. Attentive I apparently am not.

Would love to hear a full version of the Russian Space Lesbians song!!!

ITS SIERRA FRICKIN BOGGESS

THIS IS LITERALLY THE MOST AMAZING THING EVER. I CANNOT HANDLE THE MONSTROSITY OF BEAUTIFUL FALLING OUT OF MY COMPUTER SCREEN

You can't even enter through the backdoor of your house.

Stephanie J Block and Laura Benanti ♥ also Sierra Boggess...Also everyone on this video :)

Someone. Make this. Please. Put this on Broadway. and West End. I'll pay all the money.

Jeremy and Jonathan singing a duet together is stunning!!!

Best damn musical I've seen in years...

Cause-Me-Not (Cosmonaut), brilliant, hilarious!

Just brilliant! Wish that musical was real.

Jonathan and Jeremy Jordan omg x'D

"If it is true that there are as many minds as there are heads, then there are as many kinds of love as there are hearts." - Leo Tolstoy. Этим все сказано. Люди имеют полное право любить тех, кого хотят.

This is amazing!! A large Thank-You to the Broadway community for singing what we were all thinking.

All these haters remind me of the village folk chasing Frankenstein with pitch forks and torches screaming "kill the monster". How sad and ironic that they fail to see that the monster is THEM!

I'm russian and I love it. Btw, it would be better if olympic sportsmen were from North Caucasus region. And we'd like subtitles :3

All the negative comments are making me feel so sad and are among the worst that I have ever seen. I can't believe that other people are liking them too. How does a person come to have such hate in their heart? Surely each person has not had a bad experience with a gay person like Putin did in the play. It makes me wonder will there ever be a time when homophobia is a thing of the past? Can't people just accept being gay is not akin to being a paedophile, and not worth getting so impassioned and disgusted over. All it is, is the desire to love someone of the same gender, nothing more. There are many other awful things in the world to condemn like corruption, abuse, people being denied their basic human rights. Why can't we all be more vocal against our disgust against actions such as these. I understand that I have now left myself vulnerable to a wave of mean comments. But please don't reply with anything too mean, I am not here to argue, but just to vent my confusion and sadness at the way things are.

How many young Russian teens will you have to loose to suicide due to fear and self loathing, before you choose to accept and love the diversity present in all people.

jonathan groff + jeremy jordan?? all my dreams just came true

I need to start using more Lesbian Footlighting - brilliant.

So here's the text of the law, per the translation at policymic: "Propaganda is the act of distributing information among minors that 1) is aimed at the creating nontraditional sexual attitudes, 2) makes nontraditional sexual relations attractive, 3) equates the social value of traditional and nontraditional sexual relations, or 4) creates an interest in nontraditional sexual relations." So basically you can't tell kids that being gay is okay. And that's not okay.

7:00 Still better story than GRAVITY.

Andrea McArdle singing Yesterday instead of Tomorrow. Too funny. This whole thing was brilliant. And kudos to all those Broadway people for coming together to do it.

BAHAHAHA Stephanie J. Block during the credits. Haha I'm crying!

I ship Jon Groff and Jeremy Jordan SO MUCH!!!!

Truly and incredibly fabulous. This is what theatre is about for me; spreading messages and hope to all. I love you Broadway!

This gave me goosebumps. Bravo, Russian Broadway! That was phenomenal.

Читаю комменты своих соотечественников и понимаю, как же я вас люблю! Рада, что в нашей стране еще не всё потеряно.

Can this become a real thing, at least as a recording? I need to hear full versions of "Tempt Me Not", the one with lesbian cosmonauts, the belting song, and "Forget Me Not". That's basically all of them, so can I just request a concept album?

who composed this? the music is so good i could listen to the full show of it

This is nothing short of BRILLIANT!!!!! Bravo!! Such creativity makes my heart sing! Thank you one and ALL!

I am sharing it right now!!!!!!! yesssssssssssssssss

Yes!!!!!! Fantastic! Freedom! We ve got freedom of speech! Thanks God!!!

I saw this on Tumblr! I wish they would release an album, that would make my year.

"You can't even enter through back door of own home!"

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. We are at stage 2, good progress ))

Loved it!! When is the Uganda edition?!

Inspirational. Best cast of any show EVER.

Can they just record the songs from this and use it as a fundraiser.

Love you, guys. Thanx for making this video. The situation in my country is well... bizarre;-) The only one phrase crosses my mind, whilst thinking of all that, and it belongs to magical Jean Cocteau: "I understand strongly, the ideals of termites (like russian ideals), adressing the majorities, judging the inequality which relates to one of the most elevated ones... But this do not stop us from considering, that certain fruits and certain flowers will never be eaten and scented but by the reach..."

in love love love love with this! absolutely brilliant!

Thank you, friends for supporting our rights. We are not so brave to do it ourselves...

Guys, you are incredible. Thank you very much, you give us hope. From Russia with love

I can't even put into words how much i love this

Awesome job, great message, BRAVO!

Ох уж этот запад, никак не успокоится.

Thanks! Спасибо!

It is so sad that the majority fo russians don't understand the piont of this video. I'm sure they can't understand it because it is not on their native lang. Btw, that is more sad, that russan homophobic creatures are genuinely sure they are right and wise... I'm russian and it is real shame for me.

This is the best thing on the internet.

This is the most epic epicness I've ever seen today!

This is frigging awesome! PLEASE tell me some of these songs were fully realized. Anything from the "not" triad would work beautifully as a standalone.

This is perfection. Hilarious and has a great message :)

This video is so perfect in so many ways. So many funny lines. And the cast!!

Fab! Thank you for doing this! Everybody share this NOW!

I loved this so much! Amazing

Нормальный такой закон. Казнить на месте их никто не призывает.

Wonderful piece!

THANK YOU!

Loved this video. Brilliant work by the ever brilliant John W. West.

Oh dear god. This was amazing. I'm dying of laughter.

Are there fish in that bear? And no, this isn't a gay euphemism.

Bravo to the creators of this smart video. Theatre brings people together. It fills the world with perspective. It has the power to make us laugh while questioning our hollow fears. Think again before being so quick to condemn.

судя по всему, полные гомофобной отравы комментаторы ни слова не поняли в этом видео xD Несчастные недалекие людишки. I'm pretty sure that all these homophobic commentators didn;'t understand a word in this video. what a pity xD

Is day of show, y'allskis!

Everyone needs to see this. EVERYONE.

Wow, that's cool! ))) Hello from Russia!

This is literally the best thing EVER!

Beautiful!! Sarcastic! Love it!!:)

This is everything to me right now. Bravo.

I would give my leg for this to be a full length musical, and I'd give the other leg for the OST.

You could actually make it a full musical to tour (on the heels of Book of Mormon). Maybe call it 'Reign of Putin' (it wouldn't show in Russian, and maybe only in the gay playhouses...but would be worth it). Thanx all, for putting this together.

I would watch this! Seriously!

ха-ха! черт, здорово) надо же было устроить такой каламбур на сцене :D молодцы.

GLORIOUS!!!!!!

Fantastic uplifting message by a truly talented group of people! I am surprised by the negative comments from Russia. I would have thought they were too busy stealing our credit cards to notice the world has changed.

Those songs were amazing!

Is there any possibility of a soundtrack for this? I would absolutely buy it :) so awesome!!!!

This. Is. Fabulous!

This made me life. I'm done. Forever. I'm quitting. I no longer need to exist.

Very nice, and genius. Tyler Lord Hamilton

I wonder if this is what I sound like when I speak English. I'm not sure how I feel about my country being ridiculed. But I gotta say that the satire is well deserved. Спасибо. PS We don't normally use those rakes. Ever )

Did anyone else think they saw John Tartaglia? I was so sure that was him at 0:30 but I can't catch his name in the credits!

Bravo!!

Wow, Wow, Wow. I would totally go see this if were a real Broadway play.

You should upload the script to the video so that Russians who don't speak english can watch with the google translated captions

This is amazing!!!

свободу геям!! сегодня они запрещают геев, завтра запрещат внебрачный секс!

Wunderbar!

In Russia, Civil Rights fight for you!

Замечательно)))

BEST CAST EVER.

Jackie Hoffman!! And the lesbian songs were the best. :)

BLESS!
