Greer Gisy

Quick little appreciation post for ole chisel cheeks, @logan_james_hall … This man has done double duty since September (rehearsals by day IN ADDITION to 8 shows a week at night) directly into an insane holiday show schedule (which has only just begun) and then mix a new round of understudy rehearsals cuz that’s showbiz baby! Every “day off” Monday he has moved boxes, collected endless paperwork, and made so many phone calls for our home purchase. He has kept me sane in yet another huge life transition, and flew with me to Tennessee the day after his opening night party to drive a U-Haul 13 hours up the eastern seaboard. Don’t worry, he said that part was “relaxing” because he “loves to drive” 🐰🔋 Not only does he look damn good doing it all, even on minimal sleep, but he’s maintained a contagious sense of calm and steadfastness throughout the entire process. He’s my rock and I’m his dinner roll and I can honestly report that we are two wildly happy butts in complete awe of this little life we’ve built together. 📸: @definitely_dan & 📸 Lyric Theatre pics Photography: @rodolfosanchesfoto Light Assistant: @afilmbyjunior Production: @twohousesny 👗: @kennidy_corinne hand-me-up 💄: CVS baby!

Hudson Valley home owners 🏡 Life update: we moved! And I will never get over this view. Beyond grateful for this milestone moment but 10/10 do not recommend buying a home while the strong one is in tech 😅

To everything, triple pirouette, there is a season. Life is giving everything everywhere very much all at once vibes these days and while the anxiety is real so too is this: Your worth is non-negotiable and non-transactional Read it Speak it Believe it Embody it Perpetuate it Also please vote ✌🏻 💙 ✌🏻 📸 : the incredible @clynnephoto

@clynnephoto you’re a wizard @barre3lic you’re my happy place @lisa.marie.pantaleo and @lukepantaleo thank you for creating and sustaining said happy place, and for my emotional support brick (+ plant! 🌱) wall

1.17.24 ➡️ 1.17.23 What a difference a year makes. Today is the one year anniversary of my tibial tubercle osteotomy + MACI surgery ( google it if you’re not squeamish ) Today I also taught my very first - and second - @barre3 classes, back to back @barre3lic Bodies are incredible, y’all. I am entirely amazed by the resilience of mine. FOUR knee surgeries later, and I am finally starting to really, truly move again. I mean it when I say that every single day I have a moment where I realize I am WALKING without math-ing how far I can go, and then a wave of sheer joy and gratitude washes over me. What a gift this perspective of prolonged stillness has given me. Ol’ Lefty sure heals at her own 🐢 pace, but this little-body-that-could-and-damn-well-is has taught me how to couple patience with tenacity, hope with humility, and projected timelines with big ole grains of salt. I have learned to advocate for myself and embrace opportunities only where I feel genuinely valued, and I cannot recommend that self-worth shift enough. Barre3 has been an absolute anchor in healing my relationship to movement and my ability to meet my body where it’s at, regardless of how it looks or moves. I am whole even when I am healing in the b3 studio, and after the last 3 or so years of feeling more broken than beautiful, I just can’t put into words how welcome that is. Beyond grateful to be here, already very sore. 🧡

3 years ago this month, we began our adventure with Wanda the Wanderer 💜 Miss that rickety old gal!

Happiest Birthday to my love @logan_james_hall !!! Your coffee consumption is exceptional, particularly your nostalgic taste for diner and gas station brews. Your zest for life is contagious, and the way you crave nature inspires the appetites of even the least outdoorsy people. (🙋🏻‍♀️ I have been changed for the woods 🎶) You are constant and spontaneous. You are reliable and vulnerable. You are brilliant and goofy. You are kind and courageous. You saved us from a f*ckin bear! (IYKYK) You are the most committed goblin I know, you’ve never met a map you didn’t touch, and I’m pretty sure you’ve committed to leading about 17 post apocalyptic survivor groups so far… Did I mention the 🐻? While we all know that you would prefer to spend this entire week in the woods alone walking an obscene amount of mountain miles, this birthday is extra special because it’s your FIRST BIRTHDAY ON BROADWAY, baby! What a fantastic, surprising, and giving year 36 was for you. I cannot wait to see what 37 brings. Hopefully many more kitchen dances, infinite trees, and all kinds of adventures. 🥳

ONLY friggin GOLD 🤯👑🌟 Y’all they are daaaahhhhncing!! And my girl @morgankei is giving you ALL THE STORYTELLING with the most incredible group of dancers I’ve seen onstage… I think ever. @karineplantadit is an absolute goddess, and witnessing her do what she does in a way that no one else can was pure magic. @itsgabydiaz !?!?! What a freaking superhuman. I am in awe. And paired with my 💛@rysteele !? My eyes will never recover. My bae of all baes @tisvoltaire absolutely murdering with the ones and onlys @j_dawg87 and @reedluplau and the rest of the ensemble of literal ATHLETES + @thisishannahcruz and @ryanvandenboom nailing it! Of course the swing brains of all swing brains @philcolgan @peanutpollino @jacob__burns … y’all... HOW though!? I’m just so damn proud of all my people and the rest of this brilliant company 😭 Fan girling HARD for @katenash too. If you want to see the crème de le crème of the Broadway community absolutely igniting another spark of genius from @ablankenbuehler - do yourself a favor and get your ass to 10th avenue, stat. 📸: @maxmclayton . . . . . . . . . . . Also… I cannot express how proud I am of this hot pink disco ball. She took a RICH moment in time and allowed herself to hand it all over to the craft. Cheesy as that may sound, the visceral resilience that she embodies is palpable throughout. Blatant honesty, but make it art. 🕰🪑 I’m floored. Morgs, you did it. All of it. You are forever goals, inside and out. Love love love you, boyf. Thank you for letting me share this with you. Swipe for the real feels >>>

These. Women. This week has been a whirlwind, and I am so proud of my team and what we were able to accomplish. 2 weeks of rehearsal, and we put on a pretty incredible first draft of our staged production @theplayersny We joke that our LLC should be called “Tangent Theatricals” because we are entirely incapable of keeping our conversations short, but, really, “Tenacious Theatricals” would suit these women by my side the best. All of the no’s we received, all of the unfulfilled promises, all of the roadblocks along the way, and it never crossed our minds to throw our hands up and say “well, we tried.” Each challenge gave us the opportunity to find creative solutions with care and compassion, and dig deeper and deeper into the bond that is true teamwork. This week has been particularly hard for other reasons I may dive into when I’m ready, but I am most grateful for the love language of communication from my team who values humanity above all else. Uncertain and entirely unexpected times lie ahead, but I am learning to trust that what is for you will not leave you. I have been returned to my truest self by way of @josephsnodgrassplay , and for that I am eternally grateful. Thankful for the ENTIRE #SnodSquad, and especially for my soul sisters @alm433 and @mjcimage_ We. Freaking. Did. It. Y’all.

Recovery is going… 🐌 I think sometimes our spiritual body harbors itself in our physical body so we can’t ignore it. Or maybe (probably) they are more connected than I give them credit. Or perhaps my body is just a slow healer these days. Whatever the case may be, this was *supposed to* be my first week back with Hamilton. And like many *supposed to’s* in my life for the past few years, things haven’t gone quite to plan. I developed tendinitis in my recovering knee and went from feeling ready to pack my bags and return to work half-healed but ready to give it a go to taking stairs one at a time all over again. It’s still giving out if I stand for very long and though my scar is kinda cute it still burns if I move it just so. I’m not gonna say that the sunshine and downtime aren’t absolutely wonderful because… #California. But my sole purpose in life has always been centered around a version of my body that I haven’t had access to in a long time, and it’s a constant quest to be patient and trust that it will return to its preferred state when it’s ready. The mountains are calling and I must sit. Music is hard to listen to because I crave to dance. And my right leg is lookin’ real beefy next to my atrophied left 🦵 Thank goodness for crafts and @josephsnodgrassplay for keeping me busy because while I love a Netflix and chill, I got pretty burnt out on that during our epic pandemic furlough. But I am thankful. I am present. I am trusting. This time is ultimately a gift, and I can honestly say that I am using every moment of it… to heal.

Gutted I couldn’t be there to witness it, but my star of a husbutt went on for HARRY FREAKING POTTER last night and according to all accounts - absolutely Avada Kedavra’d it ⚡️

Cheers to you, 32 🥂 Sincere social media thank-you for all of the birthday wishes!! I felt so special when I finally took my phone off of silent. The balance between taking time to unplug and then discovering so much love when I re-plugged was pretty invigorating. Logan planned the event in a particularly special and somewhat un-me way this year. While I tend to prefer sunshine and balmy weather, he took us north to celebrate PNW style 🌧 He introduced me to my first old-growth redwoods, and I learned that they are some of the most resilient beings on earth. Saplings grow out of damaged trunks in a selfless act of support after chaos or tragedy. We quietly (and slowly, because #stillgimpy) wandered, listened, and breathed. After the meditative stroll we soaked in private outdoor garden tubs, and if you know me well you know I LIVE FOR A TUB 🛀 It was magical. All of it. The food we ate, the episodes of Antique Roadshow we watched before bed, and the majesty of nature woven through it all. Thank you again, my love, for giving me the woods. Opening up this part of me has intrinsically changed me for the better. I’m learning to let go. I’m learning to withstand. I’m learning to take a different path. I am learning to grow, and I am learning to re-root. I have no control over what this year of my life will be, but I am ready to follow my heart through whatever it will become. 🌲
