They’re killing it in this concert. Samantha Barks, who was Eponine in the movie, is in the concert. She is great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And sorry, Hugh Jackman was not a good choice. Edited March 22, 2020 by Jurassic Lancer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first saw this stage production years ago (PBS?), Norm Lewis stole the show for me, plus the huge chorus. Enjoy.

Terri Schehr Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Well. This is great. Highly recommended. I’ve cried four times, at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A round hall is not very good for acoustics. Good enough, I guess for pop stuff, since the amplification can control some of the bad effects. I saw/heard La Boheme there and was not impressed by the sound. Stage was set up in the centre of the hall and the singers walked all around. They were miked, so it was disconcerting to see them move, but the voice not follow them! Humm, sound familiar?🤨 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started watching Phantom's 25th at Royal Albert Hall last night & couldn't stop. Amazing cast that I thought maybe better than the original? Up next, Les Mis 25th & a couple of Cats selections. I love to sing along with my headphones. Wife gives me the look; I told her if COVID takes me out, she's going to miss my singing.
