Times may be hard, but there is still joy to be found, even after a long week. Sit back, relax, and enjoy a moment of emotional release. Welcome to Playbill's Feel Good Friday feature.

Jonathan Bennett (of Mean Girls original film and Hallmark movie fame) recently made his Broadway debut replacing Michael Urie as Sir Robin in SpamalotWe thought we'd seen the truest definition of joy when the production shared photos of Bennett's first curtain call. He was absolutely beaming. 

But then...

Bennett recently shared a TikTok video of the moment he told his husband that he'd booked the Broadway show. If Jaymes' tippy-tippy, barefoot, happy dance doesn't put a grin on your face, we don't know what will.
