Actor says. This look, featuring a small hat and little hair, is for Mud Robin, his character before he “becomes a knight,” he explains. Then, “my costumer, Courtney, gets me ready for Act 1.” Courtesy of Jonathan Bennett 6:59 p.m. Act 1 begins: “This hood is my fastest costume change — I have about eight seconds to go from this look to Mud Robin and walk on stage,” Bennett says. “There’s been a few close calls [and] I almost went on stage without my wig — that would’ve been bad!” Courtesy of Jonathan Bennett 8:25 p.m. During intermission, Bennett heads back to his private area to snap a quick selfie as Sir Robin. “The only time I’m able to go to my dressing room is during intermission,” the star shares. Luckily, “it’s four floors upstairs, and my butt has never looked better!” Courtesy of Jonathan Bennett 9:26 p.m. The show’s over! “There’s no bigger adrenaline rush than taking a bow on Broadway," Bennett tells Us. “I imagined what it would be like for years, and now that I do it eight times a week, it’s even better than I imagined.” In order to view the gallery, please allow
