Hey Y'all! It's Next to Normal's Kyle Dean Massey With a Powerful Message

Next to Normal's Kyle Dean Massey is no stranger to greeting fans online after being a Broadway.com video blogger. Now the talented actor has whipped out his camera again, this time to contribute to the popular "It Gets Better" viral series. Massey is among the latest theater stars including Idina Menzel and the Chicago cast to speak about the recent tragic suicides of gay teens. In the video, Massey recounts his childhood growing up in a homophoic Arkansas town and how bullying led the actor to briefly derail his passion for performing. Thankfully, Massey overcame his fears and these days he's wowing audiences in an emotional, Pulitzer Prize-winning show eight times a week. Things really did get better for this Broadway.com Audience Award winner! Check out his powerful message below. (He even includes adorable footage of his young self tap dancing up a storm!)
