Theatermania tweeted this short preview video of one of the dance numbers. I'm exhausted just watching it!

Break a leg to Ben Cook tonight as he makes his "adult" Broadway debut tonight in Tuck's first preview. I'll be there on Saturday and am greatly looking forward to seeing him dance.

Ben Cook's dad, Glenn, has done his usual terrific job on his blog in this overview entry about Ben's experiences getting Tuck Everlasting up and running on Broadway. A good read.
