Ryan won Best Performance by an Actor at the 2011 Jimmy Awards. He represented Spotlight Musical Theatre Program in Minneapolis, MN, at the national competition. Here, he performs "Someone To Fall Back On" by Jason Robert Brown.
@@clo_clo_48 The Lyric is a huge venue. There was a discussion after the performance. I'm not sure which performers took part in the discussion. If you get to meet the cast, that would be really cool!
I can't believe I only just found this!!!! I love Ryan McCartan! Can't believe he was one of the Jimmy Awards people from the past and look at him now!!!
Don't imagine J.D. singing this to Veronica in a version where he's just a broken teenager chasing after the girl of his dreams and not a psychopathic killer.
Remember that time that you didn't listen to how great that was? Who cares about a small amount of riffing. That's called being an artist. Great job, Ryan!
Ok but just,,,,,, all I hear is JD and it makes me happy cause heathers is great and then I hear him singing it to Veronica instead of "I am Damaged" and aaa
A really good friend of mine had spoken to me about this song, and then he showed me this video. Incredibly talented sir. As in, OOOH MUH GOOODEEEESS talented. You blew my mind. I can only hope that the man I marry can sing it to me that well.
Excuse me I've been browsing videos of the Jimmy awards for a while now and then I come across this hidden gem what this is crazy pardon me I have been learning more about Ryan than I thought I would first Heathers, then rediscovered him in one of my many childhood shows, liv and maddie, then he was actually not only in the jimmy awards but won, too?!
Had a hard time finding what musical this was from, and best answer I got was none? It was part of an album called Wearing Someone Else's Clothes, performed by a musical theater writer? Nice performance.
Great voice. Did not like his acting choices. But he did win best performance so what do I know? Also the pianist played last bit wrong. Missed the whole semi-quavers section!
