Nathan Braxton from Orange County, California, has become a TikTok sensation with the video of him singing "Naughty" from Matilda getting 146,000 views and 22,100 likes.

Now, Delta Air Lines wantsto help Nathan see his first Broadway show and is sending him and his family to New York.

“When you’re made for the stage, there’s no better place to see your dreams than NYC,” Delta’s official Twitter posted.

While they’re still unsure what show they’ll be seeing or when exactly they’ll be headed to the Big Apple, many Broadway legends expressed their fondness for the boy.

“Come see @WICKED_Musical! I’d love to meet you all xo,” Brittney Johnson, who plays Glinda in the show, said.

“Young brother is far more committed than I even dreamt of being at his age. This is conviction! And I love to see it. On this trajectory, he’ll eclipse me in no time,” Leslie Odom Jr. said.

Nathan’s mom shared a sweet video of his reaction to Odom’s tweet, which showed him crying in disbelief.

“This is amazing. This one tweet means so much to me,” he said in the video.
