Taylor Hicks in Grease on Broadway

Taylor Hicks debuted as the Teen Angel last night in the Broadway production of Grease. Afterward, it was on to Planet Hollywood to have his hands cast in cement. This photo and many more of the show and the Planet Hollywood event can be found at Right Hicks Save. Taylor will appear on Live with Regis and Kelly on Friday June 13 as part of the show’s Broadway Week.

The Taylor fans (including me) were so excited last night! On the Boogie there 123 people on and about 40 pages of people posting waiting for every detail we could get from those lucky fans that were there. No matter what anyone says Taylor has some fans who LOVE him.
Wow – Taylor looks like he is having a blast! Another first for his list. Wish I could get to NY to see this but don’t think it will happen, but I am very happy for him and will always go see him in concert whenever possible.
I posted in the headlines thread that there won’t be any reviews of Taylor. NYC critics only review opening nights. Once in a while they’ll do a review if a lead role in a major production is replaced.
OK Nomi….you made me laugh at 6:22 AM.
I loved the performance and his falsetto was magical. Lovely to see Taylor enjoying himself. Loved the harp. Cannot wait for his new albums.
So good to see Taylor enjoying himself so much in this production! I’ve missed SEEING things about him. We hear alot about where he is, what he’s doing, etc., but the pictures and videos are few and far between anymore (or maybe I just don’t know where to look). Anyway, I’m really enjoying getting some TH news/views.
Here is my video I captured on opening night, curtain call. If this cannot play here, search him on VIMEO. LOTS OF VIDEO.

Thanks for the video link skeeter, it was great. He is a lot more featured than I thought he was going to be!
Thanks skeeter226 for that link. You all don’t know how lucky we are to be able to see this. It is really taboo to post any performances from Broadway during the run of the show.
He sounds wonderful. The play probably got a shot in the arm with him joining the cast. I wish he had shown up earlier when I was in NY to see Clay in Spamalot. Could have seen both my boyfriends!!!! LOL
It is rare to see fan video from Broadway, but I have seen them before. My video is actually taken during the curtain call. Everyone rushed the stage, and there were many people taking video and pictures, along with lots of professional cameras from the media. This was allowed by the theater.
***The performance was INCREDIBLE!***…..I am sure more video will show up soon. Taylor came out the stage door for photos and signing autographs, and then then he had his hands and harmonica printed at Planet Hollywood.
The whole Claynation would have gone nuts if cameras were allowed at the Shubert. What a gift!
hmmmmmmmmmm? Maybe it depends on the theater. The stage door was fun and I was able to get some pictures and video there too, and also at Planet Hollywood at his hand printing.
It must have been an amazing night for him!
Skeeter226 can you post pics of Taylor? Would love to see them.
Here ya go Cat, my pleasure, it was a great night on Broadway!
