One of the staffs on Floyd ig story kind of confirm that they will do 'the ballad' + another song (i guess it's hgg)

I wish they will do the opening song where Jeremy climb all over the stage. That wd be cool but i dont think they gonna build that or put in an effort just to show one song.

Floyd’s final solo, “How Glory Goes”—one of Mr. Guettel’s most rhapsodic and best-known songs—is performed with a transfixing ardency by Mr. Jordan, and leaves you with a sense of spiritual uplift that, in contrast to similar climaxes in many musicals, feels not manufactured to manipulate the emotions, but absolutely authentic.

Another plum role that got away was Fiyero in the “Wicked” movie. “I didn’t show up with what they wanted so I had to try to make last-minute adjustments and it was clearly not going well,” he said of the audition. “They were like, ‘Well, you sound great. Goodbye.’”

what!! oh damn. to bad.

This is pretty interesting! I think the feedback will be one of those "I love it so much!" or "I don't get it at all/I left during intermission." situations, just like some of the comments I've seen. Over on Reddit, it started off with a lot of negative reviews when the preview dropped. But now, as we get closer to the show's opening, there are tons of threads, if not all, defending it and telling people not to pay too much attention to the bad reviews. Never seen anything like this.
