it’s always nerve wracking hearing a new take from someone on a character who you’ve known and loved for so long, but i think justin absolutely killed this!! it’s very different from alex’s bj as well as will’s and andrew kober’s, but i think it’s such a good mix of all of them. super excited to see the tour cast live!!
@solles3439 Жыл бұрын
agreed! I have so much respect for Justin and so many other actors who have to fill in the shoes of these well-loved characters. I love how they include their own take on the characters and make it their own instead of trying to imitate the people who originate their roles. (I'm not really the best with words so I hope I'm getting my idea across 😅)

Yea, Justin's awesome. I've seen him three times now and they've been fiddling with some details of the tour and maybe he's playing with things as well but they've all been great.

Let me tell you, in person, it sounds even better than this!!! He got SOO good doing the raspy BJ voice and his singing voice is amazing. His energy is everything too. I can def tell he changed his delivery + improved. The whole touring cast is absolutely amazing. Wonderful performers. I saw them in Detroit just this Sunday and it’s my first in person Broadway musical. I had the best time. Smiles the whole time. Justin and everyone casted is so awesome.

One of the little adjustments made for a touring stage is that instead of popping out of the floor, the ukelele is thrown by a cast member over the coffin to him twice in a row. In the sense that they nail that show after show it's almost more impressive.

It’s a special voice trick that anyone can do! Alex used the cartilage in his throat to make the voice, not his vocal chords. You do the same thing when you clear your throat. Alex just figured out how to sing while doing it😂

@@nicholasnorris3210 I'm pretty sure its very well documented that its not a trick. Doctors themselves have confirmed that Alex has a special ventricular fold that he uses to perform with the voice as naturally as he breathes. Its a very rare case as mentioned by Alex himself MANY many times.

Did they get rid of the sand snake reveal during this number? I know from videos of curtain calls that the tour snake is a bit different and comes through the front door, so i’m curious how they did the scene with Juno at the end/if that’s the only actual appearance of the snake.
@solles3439 Жыл бұрын
Yeah, they did. The sandworm still ate Juno, but she still came through the door like in the curtain call. I believe since there wasn't any house for the sandworm to come out of in this part, they just left it out, but tbh I don't really know...
@FleshGolem420 Жыл бұрын
@@solles3439 So in the first SF performance they projected a sandworm on the backdrop during this song during there's a giant snake here. By the time I saw it again during Nevada's shows it was gone and it was still gone for the final show. They made a LOT of tweaks over the SF run so I guess they felt like the projection didn't really work.

I saw this version completely blind the other night without having ever seen anything from the Broadway show and it was genuinely the most fun I've had at the theatre ever. To be fair I'm not much of a theatre kid to begin with, but still. This guy killed. And to be honest, it's probably the bias of having seen him first, but from what I've seen I think I prefer him over the Alex guy, no shade intended
