The holidays are prime proposal season, and there was no shortage for Broadway faves this year. Skylar Astin proposed to his Pitch Perfect co-star Anna Camp, Tony nominee Laura Bell Bundy is getting hitched to longtime boyfriend Thom Hinkle, and Wicked ensemble member Josh Daniel Green said yes to fiancé Daniel Robinson, who proposed on the Gershwin Theatre stage in a flying monkey costume.
Astin shared the news on Instagram with a post-engagement selfie accompanied by the caption “I asked. She said yes!!!” The actor, who made his Broadway debut in Spring Awakening, will return to the New York stage for Carnegie Hall’s presentation of West Side Story this March. In addition to Pitch Perfect, Camp’s credits include True Blood, Mad Men and The Help on screen and Equus and All New People on stage.
Bundy kicked off 2016 by posting a collage on Instagram showing off her ring and a few shots with Hinkle. “His thoughtfulness, massively generous heart and the fact he switched from Scotch to KY Bourbon has kept me falling in love with him more every day,” the countrified Legally Blonde star wrote.
On Christmas Day, Robinson surprised his boyfriend by sneaking into a post-curtain call photo at Wicked. Green finishes the show as a flying monkey, so Robinson followed suit by wearing head-to-toe flying monkey garb, mask included. Is there anything more romantic than being proposed to in matching, vaguely terrifying winged creature outfits? Check it out below to see we're not making this up.
Congratulations to all the happy couples; may you have an aca-awesome, Omigod-worthy and thrillifying 2016!
