25th Anniversary of Les Miserables

[Omega]

We have just been to see the 25th Anniversary of the show Les Miserables at a theatre in Norwich -
John Owen-Jones to star as 'Jean Valjean', Earl Carpenter as 'Javert' and Gareth Gates as 'Marius' in exciting new 25th anniversary production...
http://www.lesmis.com/?gclid=CMfvwYT_j6ACFZBb4wod0V2AdgIt was fantastic, it does have a couple of changes in the show one is at the beginning a different scene where Jean ValJean is one of the convicts on a ship.

Mr O hadn't seen it before and did not expect the set to be "dimmed and dark" most of the time :lol: but saying that he did enjoy the story and the songs. Gareth Gates was absolutely fantastic his voice is superb; I think that theatre suits him really well :)

If you get the chance to see this special 25th Anniversary show and you like Les Mis do go; it's too good to miss :thumbs:

Gareth Gates is good - we saw him in panto last Christmas and his voice was great.

I first saw it in London around 1995/6 - but until they said it was 25th Anniv I didn't realise it first showed on 8 October 1985 :faint:

25 years? I didn't realise that. We are off to see it in Edinburgh in May. I saw it about 15 years ago, but hubby has never seen it. Looking forward to it :)
