“This may seem silly, but I know that a lot of high schools were going to have their musicals, and those musicals got canceled,” the Tony winner said in a post on Instagram and Twitter. “And that is a bummer, because I know for so many of us, I know for me, my high school musical was a lifesaver. So if you would like to sing a song that you are not going to get to sing now, and tag me, I wanna see you. I wanna hear it.”
