I love it when one of our own gets a bigger stage and grabs the world’s attention. You know, like Matt Morrison, Cheyenne Jackson, and most recently, Godspell‘s own Uzo Aduba from Orange Is the New Black! (This is the second Broadway vet to get a Netflix show, btw, with Sebastian Arcelus killin’ it on House of Cards.)
Christina Bianco, formerly of Forbidden Broadway, and currently of Newsical the Musical, grabbed the world wide web’s attention recently with this clip from 54 Below that has garnered . . . get this . . . 3.4 million views on the YouTube.Amazing, right?
You ain’t seen nothing yet.
