Welcome to episode 1 of Tveiting Patiently! I'm your host Elizabeth! This first episode will share some of my story about my personal introduction to the talents of Aaron Tveit as well as share some of Aaron’s own key career highlights and timelines. From his upbringing, to college, to first performing jobs, to Broadway and beyond. Aaron's been on quite the journey over the past almost two decades!
After watching the Wicked movie...again this weekend, I was thinking about the first time I saw the movie in theaters and the Idina and Kristen cameo moment happened. That reaction was one that would only happen once because now, even though it's still special, we know it's coming. So this week's episode reflects back on the first time seeing Aaron perform in certain show and perform certain songs in concerts.
How has it almost been 1 year since Aaron Tveit made his debut in Sweeney Todd?! A known dream role for him and he and Sutton Foster were a match made in heaven as Sweeney and Mrs. Lovett. This episode reminisces on February 9, 2024. The night that kicked off Aaron's 12 week run as Sweeney Todd.
Whether he realizes it or not, Aaron Tveit has given so many of us a place to belong and sense of community throughout his career. These communities have grown even more through social media and being able to connect with others who share the similar interest of celebrating Aaron and musicals. This week's episode is a reflection of gratitude for those communities.
