I've seen recordings of a lot of versions--including the obc--but never live. I learned about Merrily because of Chip Z, and after hearing he was in it, I just RUSHED to read more about it. Later I began to listen to it.... a lot; eventually found someone that had the audio recording of when Chip played Charley! What was your introduction? (also I find it so silly [/pos] how I keep running into you here)

That's cool you found an audio boot from then! I didn't know Chip was in a production till seeing 'Franklin Shepard Inc' listed on his live album performing previous roles. Digging online can reap high reward! Merrily entered my radar through...the Ladybird (2017) film, as they show snippets of their high school production. Learning it's a Sondheim show encouraged me to check out a youtube bootleg. I intend to take in Sondheim's full catalog after really enjoying 'Sunday in the Park with George' (+Bernadette Peters). At this point, I've never seen Merrily live either but really love it from the productions available online! Such an endearing show with memorable characters -- one of my top musicals for sure! The OBCR has too many top-tier moments to listen to. And same I left random shouts everywhere because I was like... does anyone online like Merrily?? or just randomly peruses pages of theater people like Chip? & sure enough, there's at least ONE other person, lol!
