Actor Ryan McCartan HD Instagram Photos and Wallpapers May 2022

After ➡️ Before • there is so much to put into words surrounding the opportunity to return to a role I thought I’d never play again after the pandemic permanently shut down Frozen on Broadway, and I will attempt to find those words as I explore my feelings further; but one thing I most certainly have the words for is my respect, admiration and total love for @mckenziekurtz. What I did to get into this show felt superhuman to me. And I’m really proud of myself. After 2 years not doing theater in any capacity, I had about two weeks to prepare to go on the road with the Frozen tour. But McKenzie had ONE DAY. I had a week to relearn the Hans track, much of it being different in this production. McKenzie had the exact same amount of rehearsal time as I did, with probably 5 times more material and blocking to get down, because *spoiler*, Anna is the whole show. If what I had to do this week feels superhuman to me; and it does, then what she has done deserves the highest regard, for its incalculable difficulty and intensity. She never stumbled. She never doubted. She hits every time, in rehearsal and in performance. Theater is incredibly hard, and it’s filled with miraculous people like McKenzie, whose jobs are impossible by most people’s standards (including mine!), but who make it not only seem easy, but seamless. Because I feel such pride in what I have done – a job that is hard, but objectively and considerably easier than the task McKenzie was called to do – then you can only imagine the pride I feel to know, watch, and celebrate this woman’s work. Doodlebop, I am so immeasurably glad it’s us again. To many more open doors 💙 love you!

Sometimes life is just too poetic to be random. I’ve known Caroline since I was 8 years old. The last time I saw her was at callbacks for Frozen on Broadway in 2017. I said “wouldn’t it be crazy if we both got this?” We didn’t. But then, two years later, I was Hans on Broadway and she was Anna in the North American tour. And yesterday, two years after that, I’m in Florida joining the touring company as she sets off on new adventures, but only after recreating a picture we took 20 years ago, when I was Winthrop and she was Amaryllis at a community theater in MN. Swipe for the gag of it ALL. I love you, Caroline!

This is one of the last pictures ever taken of me as Hans – unbeknownst to me. On Broadway I played my “closing show” on a random Wednesday, without knowing it was over, because the pandemic hit, and closed our show. Then I got the opportunity to play the role on the road, and on the eve of what should have been my final performance, got sick with something we thought might be COVID, and per protocol, had to be out of the show until I was cleared to come back. The clearance process took longer than what I had left of my run, and I find myself once again leaving Arendelle without officially saying goodbye. The heartbreak of making it so close to getting my final bow and still missing it is genuinely excruciating. But. The pain of the way it ended doesn’t come close to the joy of how it went. The quality of people I met and spent time with on the road, the quality of work I feel we did on that stage every night, and the quality of care I took to soak up every moment – knowing full well sometimes things can end before you think they will – all immeasurable. I am sad about how it ended, but I am woefully unprepared to process how incredibly happy I am about how it went. To the touring company of Frozen: do not ever forget the power you hold to unanimously change someone’s life for the better. Yes, you do that onstage for our audiences; but most certainly, you did it offstage for me, too. I love you all 💙

Indulge me for a second: First of all, obviously, if you’re in LA and have a chance to see @hadestown – DO IT. Flawless performances from the cast and band. Truly a perfect night of theater. It was an honor to be invited to opening night last night. (@samantha_fekete and I vlogged the experience, stay tuned!) I want to talk quickly about these pictures taken of me on the event’s red carpet. I’ve been walking red carpets and snapping for step-and-repeats since I was a kid. And I always felt so self conscious, because I wanted to smile, but I would see “stars” on “big carpets” and they never smiled. So I decided “Stars don’t smile” – and if you look back on my Disney Channel days, you can see how uncomfortably I am trying to edit myself for press shots. For whatever it’s worth, I am so proud of the work I’m doing and the person I’m becoming. I love to smile. It’s who I am. And in these pictures, I am giving you a big toothy unedited smile. I’m being who I am. And by the way? Stars do smile. Because I am a star. And I’m smiling 😁 Don’t do it because it’s what they do. Do it because it’s who you are. Don’t become what you see. Show the world what you want to see. Xx

I’m so behind on the photo dumps from my incredible life but here’s when me and my friends went to the desert. Swipe all the way for my best performance of all time.

Me and the besties saw a burlesque show last night and the vibes/teets were immaculate. @beautyofburlesque and especially @evaziegfield ATE. Gobbled it all up. No leftovers. I’d prove it but I was too busy being present to make content last night so here are some pictures of me.
