He began by sharing his love for the Big Apple during the fall season: “And that’s the whole reason I went to New York! It’s one of my favorite places to go in the fall, so I’m always looking for an excuse to get there.”
Speaking to his 624,000 followers on the photo-sharing platform, he added: “I ended up sitting front row for the preview and it was so, so, so great!”
He then praised his fellow actor’s performance in the off-Broadway show, noting, “Jim is amazing, and he’s surrounded by an incredible cast. Honestly, I want to go back and see it all again!’
Speaking to his fans, he asked: “Did you see this? Will you make it? Please let me know! In this musical, Jim plays Alfie, a theater-loving bus conductor in Dublin in 1964.’
