I love watching the pairs and tries, just because it's the same choreo but each dancer has a different way of doing it. Like Ben is so light on his feet and there's a carefree kind of feeling, while Joshua Burrage has the tightest turns and most technical steps. Sky Flaherty is almost the opposite of Ben: he dances with more gravity and sharp moves instead of the flowy kind. It's so interesting to watch.
Truly one of the most gifted dancers I've ever seen. He's just so recognizable and perfect. Someone who you can't take your eyes off of. God I love him so much
You know when something is just so beautiful a few tears leave your eyes. This happens when I watch him dance, I don't know what it is but it's just so enchanting is the only word I can describe it as. What I would give to see him perform live or meet him. 😢😊
Damn I love him. I'm absolutely obsessed with the way he slows down his pirouettes gradually if you know what I mean idk. Also is that Partner in Crime footage from a masterclass?
I do know what you mean, it’s amazing! Also, I believe that footage was from broadway TE rehearsals as he and Mackenzie were understudies for the two roles they were dancing for.
I’m a dancer and sometimes we wear one sock on our turning foot so that we have some leverage to turn. If you wear two it’s too hard to dance and not fall
I think he deserves a LITTLE more recongnition. He is a talented dancer, and most likely inspired others to dance, but come on yall. He needs to become a legend owo
4th song is Devil Like Me by Rainbow Kitten Surprise. I used to watch this video all the time in the prime of my Newsies phase yearss ago and was always entranced by that one little clip of the song, and always wished I knew what it was. The other day I was on the way to get food with my siblings and this exact clip of the song switched on the radio… I immediately took down the name of it before my brother changed it to a different song. Today I listened to the whole song in tears from pure nostalgia. All the comments on this video are from years ago but.. if anybody new stumbles across this video, just starting out in the fandom for a musical Ben was in, here ya go. :)
For anyone wondering, the song at 2:05 is devil like me by rainbow kitten surprise ! I love that band so much hahaha and seeing ben dance to that song is amazing
Uhhhh!!! I would pay my life to take lessons from Ben!! Perhaps after newsies rehearsals this year, maybe around the summertime, I'll get back into dance! I know it's something you should do all your life, if you're dedicated. Hell, I'm in my early teen years, I haven't taken dance classes in almost six years straight. I'm starting from new. But knowing me, this is just a passing interest, and it will go away after a while but... Yeah.
Is your comment from a year ago...yes BUTTTTTTTTTT YOU CAN TAKE CLASSES WITH BEN AND JOSH!!!! I take their classes every week and I just had one with Ben today! Ben teaches at Titans of dance and Front and Centre and Josh teaches at Titans of Dance, Front and Centre, and Arts Pallet!!!! I 100% recommended!!!
i know this is a really weird question, but does anyone know the adidas trousers he’s wearing in the majority of his videos? i’ve looked for these specific ones (i think his have a white band on the back at the top) but i can’t find them anywhere! they look really comfy and good to dance in😅
