Thank You @stars-may-collide And Everyone Who Got Me To 10 Reblogs!

Daniel Durant is just so talented and adorable, and I will continue to say it until the day I die, and even after that. He's just so gosh darn precious, and there's no doubt that he's going to be one of the cutest dads ever one day!!! 🤟🏻💖💕💗🫂✨️🫶🏻

Hey, girl!!! How are you???

Saw @feelssogoodinmyarms do this and now I want to because I also miss this show dearly.

(By @winter-asleepening)

1. how were you introduced to the show?

A friend introduced me to it in middle school which was around the time DWSA was on Broadway.

2. Seen a production live?

No, I wish.

3. Dream role/character you relate to most

Ever since I first listened to the musical I’ve always wanted to play Ilse. She’s just such a strong character and Blue Wind is my go to (Theatre) karaoke part.

4. Favorite male character

Moritz! I’m also a Georg enjoyer.

5. Favorite female character

Ilse, and specifically Treshelle Edmond/Kathryn Gallagher portrayal of Martha (love Lilli though)

6. Deaf West Revival or Original Broadway Cast?

Okay I the first Spring Awakening bootleg I watched was of OBC, but I feel more connected to DWSA version/cast because they were on Broadway during the time that I first discovered Spring Awakening. I love both so much but I gotta say DWSA for this one. That cast was groundbreaking and so excellent.

7. Favorite song

Don’t Do Sadness/Blue Wind and Touch Me

8. Least favorite song

The Mirror-Blue Night- probably just because I listen to it the least.

9. Favorite quote/line

The lines leading up to The Song Of Purple Summer:

“Listen to what’s in the heart of a child

A song so big in one so small

Soon you will hear where beauty lies

You’ll hear and you’ll recall

The sadness, the doubt

All the loss, the grief

Will belong to some play from the past

As the child leads the way to a dream

A belief

A time of home through the land.”

10. Favorite TV performance

DWSA at Seth Meyers

11. Favorite cast members

I’m a big Andy Mientus fan, also anyone who knows me knows that I love Kathryn Gallagher so much. And Daniel Durant. (Every DWSA cast member holds a special place in my heart, I can’t choose a favorite.) Favorite OBC member is John Gallagher Jr.

12. Favorite cast member moment

Heaven Touch. Or every Periscope.

Do you write fan fiction?

No I’m boring lol

14. Do you make fan art?

No, but I love seeing the beautiful fan art this fandom makes! I feel like I should start. I’ll try to start.

15. Do you cosplay?

No, again I know I’m boring.

16. Don't do Sadness or Blue Wind?

Blue Wind

17. Word of your body or the Reprise?

Reprise

18. Touch Me or My Junk?

Touch Me

19. Explain the song of purple summer

Fun question! It’s a metaphor for change after hard times. Purple Summer is the inevitable good thing that comes after the inevitable bad thing. No matter how harsh and cold the Winter may be, Summer always follows. Just like how no matter how harsh and cold life may be, something good will follow. The play itself is about harsh times and horrible things happening to these children- and then the play just ends… only it doesn’t. The Song of Purple Summer is Spring Awakening’s finale because it tells the audience: “Hey, what you just watched was gut wrenching, but the story isn’t over. Change is coming, Summer is coming. You won’t be here to see it, but it’s happening.”

Thanks again @winter-asleepening for making this! Much love to all my Spring Awakening fam 🤟🏻💜

Moritz Stiefel's AU Dating Profile

Name: Moritz Stiefel

Age: 15

Occupation: Artist, Rock Star

Favorite Musical Artists: Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Burning Pool, David Bowie, Bon Jovi

Likes: Working hard at school, being friends with Melchior Gabor, spending time with his friends

Dislikes: Being Abused by His Father, Failure (he's scared of feeling like he failed).

Love Language: Quality Time

Daniel N. Durant and Alex Boniello collaborated to create an absolutely iconic version of Moritz Stiefel in the Deaf West production of Spring Awakening (I think John Gallagher Jr., the OG Moritz, would be proud of them)!!!

Daniel and Alex's brotherly best friend bond is so amazing to see. Who else wants to see them work together again someday? I know I do! I know that Britt and April would definitely be in the audience watching and supporting them and being the most amazing partners/spouses/sister-in-laws EVER!!!

I love how Daniel talks about how Alex has become like a brother to him during the process of doing the show together! It's so cute!

I imagine that Britt and April are probably really proud of Daniel and Alex right now.

Not just talented actors playing 2 sides of a similar character, but also adorable uncles and soul brothers to each other.

Wouldn't it be amazing if Daniel & Britt and Alex & April double dated? Not only would it be an adorable DWSA Moritz reunion, but it would also be a new bonding experience for the ladies in their lives!!! 🤟🏻💜💙🤍🕊🖤💗💕💋🫶🏻🎶

Shoutout to whoever it was that casted both Daniel and Alex as 2 different sides of the same character of Moritz in DWSA!!!

They said that Alex's role as the Voice of Moritz is serving as Moritz's inner rock star, but I would argue that Daniel and Alex are both rock stars!!!

The show in it of itself was an amazing opportunity for both deaf and hearing actors to work together and for both deaf and hearing audiences to get to experience things equally together, which I love about accessible projects like the movie CODA, and, as someone who has autism, I personally think there should be more of those kinds of projects that are accessible to everybody, and I mean, EVERYBODY, regardless who they are or what accommodations they have for certain things.

Dude, the foreshadowing with Daniel reaching for the gun in Alex's hands was so powerful and it just started to shatter my heart into literally a thousand pieces at least and made me feel even worse for Moritz. 🥺😭🤧 Poor baby lost hope on going on with life...

Long story short, if y'all told me that Daniel and Alex were brothers who were separated at birth, I would have absolutely no problem believing you!

I feel y'all, though.

They are all so dear to me

Happy birthday, Joshua Colley!!!

Part 5 of the adorableness of Daniel (sorry for the delay...)

51. Daniel was just this cute little puppy when he started acting professionally after moving to Los Angeles in 2012. He has come a long way since then.

52. Also, big news for those who don't know, Daniel is a soon-to-be married man!!! Can't wait for the wedding!!!

53. Congrats are also in order for Daniel after he gave an absolutely gorgeous and fabulous performance of the national anthem at last month's Super Bowl!!!

54. A service dog got to meet Daniel when he came to visit his beautiful fiancée Britt in Morristown, New Jersey for DWTS: Live!!!

55. Look at those green eyes!!!

56. And Daniel's smile always makes me smile!!!

57. I honestly feel like a proud mom every time seeing Daniel and Britt continue to kill it both individually and as a couple!!!

58. Seriously, Daniel & Britt are both living my dream life right now!

59. Seeing Daniel dance on DWTS with Britt truly inspired me in more ways than one! ✨️ Team Sign to Shine always and forever ✨️

60. I feel like Daniel and I would be really good friends, like best friends!!! 🤟🏻💙💜🫶🏻💗💕💋🥰😍 We would support and encourage each other!!!

Daniel Durant's episode of Chicago Med on NBC and his performance as a whole simultaneously warmed, melted, and broke my heart, but this scene especially DESTROYED my heart!

I was like, "Aww... honey..."

Daniel got so emotional 😭 when his Mom’s sent a message. My heart ♥️!!!
