At the annual MCC Theater Miscast Gala, MIscast regular Tituss Burgess poked fun that none of his “classmates” could really compete with his performances. After all, his voice just sits higher than the average male vocalist—the better to sing female leads with, my dear.

The lyrics matched the writer-actor relationship hilariously well (You are some gumshoe/You just don't think well/Get this, dumb gumshoe/You come from my inkwell).
And it wouldn't be a performance from the comedians without some improv humor.
