Saddest Bway Performances — Page 2

I've never been able to not cry through "Chava's Dream." One of the most emotional, heart wrenching moments in musical theater. I cry for Tevye, I cry for Chava, I'm a mess.

100% the carousel finale.

Epilogue of Les Miz.

No One Is Alone (especially with the OBC of Into the Woods)

Children and Art from Sunday always leaves me with quite a few tears.

I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face from My Fair Lady

I wouldn't call it sad necessarily, but the finale of Ragtime with the reprise of Wheels of a Dream leaves me a blubbering mess.

The final scene of act one in She Loves Me is heartbreaking to me.

Underwater and the scene before it in Caroline, or Change is incredibly sad.

The final scene in Cabaret

Another Winter in a Summer Town from Grey Gardens

Paul's monologue in A Chorus Line

BUT THE WINNER FOR SADDEST MOMENT IN A MUSICAL IS....

I'll Be Here from Ordinary Days. The song isn't great. The lyrics are bland and so is the music, but the subject matter rips my soul out everytime I hear it.

Those You've Known from Spring Awakening

She Used to Be Mine from Waitress

This Is Not An Exit from American Psycho

Stay Alive (Reprise)/It's Quiet Uptown from Hamilton

Hamilton's monologue in The World Was Wide Enough

Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story from Hamilton

The last 20 minutes of Finding Neverland (hell, I was even crying 20 mins after it ended)

Paul's Monologue from A Chorus Line (gives me goosebumps just to think about it)

Some parts (I can't remember) of Violet

The last 20 minutes of Next To Normal

So Big/ So Small from Dear Evan Hansen

I'll Cover You (reprise) RENT

Telephone Wire in Fun Home wrecks me every single time. Absolutely devastating.

Another Winter in a Summer Town , Grey Gardens

Telephone Wire and Edges of the World, Fun Home

Underwater, Caroline or Change. That's the one that most just makes me collapse into a puddle.

Moritz's suicide monologue into "Left Behind" from Spring Awakening

"The World Was Wide Enough" from Hamilton

"The Flesh Failures (Let the Sunshine In)" from Hair

"Left behind"- Spring Awakening

"Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story" -Hamilton

Miss Saigon

"Dying Ain't So Bad"- Bonnie & Clyde

"The Flesh Failures/ Let The Sunshine In"-Hair

Bat Boy's Ballad in "Comfort and Joy"-Bat Boy

"Almost Perfect Lie"-From Here To Eternity

"No One Else" and "The Great Comet of 1812" -Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812

The first scene second act or cabaret and the end of cabaret. I'll also second telephone wire.

Mark Rylance's performance in Jerusalem was a gut punch. Particularly that third act...from when the girl puts on the record "Who Knows Where the Time Goes" by Sandy Denny and they dance, then he gets the crap beaten out of him, Ginger, his closest "friend" comes and spits on him, he has to face his little son while covered in blood and spit...ugh

It wasn't on Broadway but "Just Ask the Flowers" from Here Lies Love always got me when I saw the show and even when I listen to the cast recording.

Not gonna lie...I started to lose it at the end of Finding Neverland, i was devastated!
