the world, we're in some

final tech rehearsal and we've

been getting lots of amazing questions

from Twitter, because our

process is so strange

and unique and so we

would like to answer some of them,

so let me go around and try

to answer some of your questions with some of our cast.

We have a question here from @Aviva,

she says if you could

play any other character on Broadway, who would it be?

On Broadway?

On the whole Broadway?

yeah, it specifically says on Broadway, so no off Broadway, no Regional.

Well okay.

Oh!

Easy, one of the kids in School of Rock

I haven't seen it.

Like [bleeping] badass. I can't cuss. Is ass a curse word?

I don't know, that's a good question.

you let us know in the comments.

Hey Alex, Hey You're

looking so smart in your little fall outfit today.

Well I'm a really intelligent guy

my clothes reflect that

we have a question from at SARAHELYSE17 Slay

Sara? We have a history

She asks if you could

play any other role in Spring Awakening

what would you play?

Adult Women hands down

I have all my choices prepared

especially for a Sunday night

when I can really like blow

out my voice, yes.

Great, thank you.

So Cath is interpreting once again,

for Amelia and this is a question

from @mulderscully_ for the

deaf actors, is there a

show that you would love to do

an ASL version of with Deaf West?

legally blonde  perfect thank

you,  I just think she

should do Violet my gosh

we want her to do Violet I think she would be amazing.

Deaf West

Violet would be amazing.

A Deaf West

Violet because we were

talking about this her scars and she always felt

aashamed by them but

lately, she felt great and

I'm like, that's what Violet is about!

I think they are very fierce.

Is there any show you'd like see Josh.

Into the woods that's my

goal my baby if anyone takes it I will murder you.

Children will listen one way

or another, yes.

Or maybe Rent.

I like that hey Marlee

we have a question from a fan.

What show would you like

to see an ASL version for Deaf West

any other show?

In ASL, I would like to see Cats.

I love that

idea thanks you guys, thanks for your input.

This is really cool sometimes we

rehearse just with signing and music with no singing

to get the signing right and it's really really cool. So here's a treat.

This is the question from

@pupica325 for the

deaf actors what sparked your

interest in acting and who inspired you?

My dad was very theatrical

and I maybe looked up to

him, and when

I realized I really wanted to

have a career not just to do it for fun.

There is a person called Monique Holt

She's incredible an professor, actress,

writer, sign translator everything.

She helped me and inspired

me not thinking about

money and living but thinking

about what is your passion, what

was your goal and at that point I said acting.

So don't think about the

money, don't think about whatever

or what people want you to

do, do what makes you happy.

Do what your joy is what

your love is and everything

will follow Thanks guys, that was beautiful.

Hi, Robert Ariza

hello this is the

question, A, which role

are you most excited to do

and then B, if you could

cover any track that you don't

cover who would you cover?

I think I mean it's kind of

typical but I think I'm most

excited about going on for Melchior just because

it's the most challenging

thing I've ever had to learn.

There lots of signs there, yes

and I'm not a natural

signer, I'd learned when I

started rehearsal for this so that

will be exciting, should that day come.

In terms of female characters

I think Ilsa, I'll say

that too I wanna be Ilsa.

question is what is it

like being one half

of a single character, what's that

experience like as a voicing actor?

It's hard because like

you have your own ideas about what

you think how

a line should play but you

are watching somebody to check their

timing and like today

I got a note, "Hey Josh is doing this thing. "

But I had no any idea because I was

standing behind him, so I didn't

know so I have to go find

him and ask him what is

your invention on this line that's me too.

Two words.

So you really have to like confer

them on really everything?

Yeah it's, two become, two heads are better than one kind of thing.

It's really hard.

It's really, really hard, for

all the reasons that he said

are totally accurate, in my

case, recently we were

having a lot of trouble with

jokes, I guess in

the case with an actor

like Daniel, who is profoundly

deal there's like a sense of

comedic timing that comes from

hearing human speech, that

we're all like used to and

stuff like that, and in

order to make like a

certain line that's written to

play a certain way and be

a laugh every night, because the show has a few of those.

You really need to figure that out,

so it took us like many shows to

get this one joke in particular

down, which is the obsessed with,

mesmerised by penis and vagina,

well I am.

So we had to play together

with figuring out, like, Okay well,

he started by doing something like

this and we realized this sign

kills the joke no matter how

tight we are, and things like that.

So working with Daniel

to find like 30 different

ways to land this joke

until we finally found it and

then it like erupts with laughter

and then you have to wait every night to see

what happens see what happens and

Daniel will come on stage and

be like, did they laugh?

And I was like, Yes.

They totally laughed tonight.

But yes, stuff like that

is a crazy challenge and then

following someone's lead while also

giving your own input and coming

together to make one thing,

it's crazy and I can't

imagine I will ever do it again

and unless,

Deaf West wants me back for something else.

There's no chance of that?

No.

No, all right.

Thanks guys.

Here's Katie Boeck the voice of Wendla

We're at intermission of this show right now.

It's going very well I think.

And you room is looking so cute.

Thank you.

I went a little crazy

Katie, the question is,

for the voicing actors what

is it like playing one person

with another actress, like playing the same character together.

What's the experience of that like?

It's It's so awesome

because at least for

me I get to do

what I love to do,

which is sing, and play guitar,

and talk and it's

like there's not just

that, there's this whole other element

of ASL that comes into

the mix, and I just

think that it's like

8, 000, 000 times more

the character that now that it's being shared.

I left my dirty socks in the counter in the background

I just think it's great,

I think people walk away

with a deeper understanding of

what the character is about because it's

being the whole

story of the character is being told in such a deeper way.

Yeah like internal life is playing out externally.

Yeah I have the fun part I

get to reveal a lot

of what her subconscious is thinking

and that's not something you

always get to do if you

were the only person that gets

to express the feelings that character

and all of that is sort

of all in your mind and

me being her mind and her

spirit I get to kind

of play around

a little bit more and I really enjoying that part of it.

Here we have Lauren Luiz washing brushes.

Washing brushes our very own

Melita being domestic during intermission here.

Do you have any interesting rituals pre-show.

Interesting?

No.

But what are your rituals pre-show?

I like to listen to

music, lately I've really been into Billie

Holiday, just because I feel

like she understands me, right

now and then we play ninja on stage.

We do I'm really terrible at it. Me too

I still don't quite get it. No one is worse than me.

Your question is if

you could play any other role on Broadway, what role?

How does that question keep happening?

I just asked her the other day.

Ohh!

I don't know and

Anything that's like sexy and fun

A little mischief maybe.

We call her Sexy Lexie

She wrote that herself.

I did not! Thanks

ladies bye, bye

I got a question, How

is the experience different, being in Spring Awakening and versus Les Miserables]?

The experience is completely different for a lot of reasons.

It's a hell of a lot shorter

which you think like,

more show, more fun, but not all the time.

Not when you're doing it eight times a week.

Also I would say this music

is way more in my wheel

house way more the

kind of music that comes out

of me naturally, whereas in Les Miz I

had to like really work and push

to get that big operatic sort

of I mean as operatic as

I can get, that kind of

sound does not come naturally
