Keep It Gay - The Producers

Roger is reluctant to direct, but when Max and Leo suggest he could win a Tony Award, he agrees on the condition that the play be more "gay".

“He’s having a stroke…of GENIUS!” gets me everytime

[EmsicleD]

The beauty of Simba, Hercules and Timon all singing a song about gay theatre...

[squatchpnw]

Nathan Lane playing a straight guy is a good joke too.

[Gyrono]

"Oedipus wont bomb, if he winds up with Mom" My God did that one fly over my head when I was younger.

[MaCabaret]

“So what’s it like being in theatre?”
“Well, pretty much everyone’s gay. Even the straight people. Totally gay.”

[OoFaeHeartoO]

He’s having a stroke-
*OF GENIUS*

💀💀😂😂😂

[HSMiyamoto]

A lesbian "lighting designer" is a classic theater in-joke.

[AW]

He's having a stroke.... OF GENIUS!!!! :D :D :D

"Think of the Tony!" You did that, Gary Beach. RIP you lovely man.

Fun fact: Roger Bart, the actor playing Carmen Ghia in the movie (Roger DuBris's partner), was also the singing voice of Young Hercules in Disney's Hercules from 1997, and sang "(I Can) Go The Distance".

R.I.P Gary Beach You Earned that Tony for Featured Actor

[paulschauer]

“He’s having a stroke”, “what?” “ of GENIUS!! Such a fun and wonderful song one of my favourite musicals

[konnerdent]

Damn that “lighting designer” joke is way too accurate.

Even though the movie adaptation of the play wasn’t well received, the play itself still holds the record for most Tony’s won by a single play. And the original movie is still a cinema classic.

"This is a very big decision! It might effect the course of my entire life!
I shall have to think about it... *quarter second later*... I'LL DO IT!"
Words I hope to use one day if my big break ever comes.
(RIP Gary Beach, you were a goddamn treasure!)

[manuelorozco]

Finally a high quality video of Keep it Gay. And Gary Beach what makes one truly witty drag queen

[nime]

Think of the Tony

*Gasp* Tony Tony Tony Tony Tony

[deathberry]

"They're _loosing_ the war, Excuse me?!"

[zirjaeger]

I’m guessing they’re using both the modern and old definition of gay here right?

[boiledcrap]

I'm a straight, gun owning Texan and I love singing this song out loud. Flamboyant prancing and all.
