Gay and defying gravity was all it took to convince me to watch this show. As someone who is very late in the game to appreciate the magic of wicked and the chokehold that defying gravity has on people, I was fully enveloped with the actor's journey. I could relate to his struggles of being a closeted gay boy singing and dancing to his favourite song. This show was wholesome, funny, and heartwarming. The actor did a great job in sharing his vulnerability with the audience. The dissection of his old youtube videos singing defying gravity while sharing the struggles of being a young gay boy may sound like a simple concept. But the way it is delivered and the way he tells the story makes the show very special.
