    As the assistant director of this production I am amazed that this has now been seen nearly 2.2 million times. I can attest that this cast was sensational, and incredibly nice as well as talented. You'd be happy to know that after our three week run of the show we got "the band back together" seven months later and did an in concert version as well. I have worked five productions of Les Miserables, and this was by far the best.

      As someone who has watched many a cover of One Day More, i can honestly say that this one has captured the spirit of the song better than any other. Your Javert, Enjolras and even Eponine OWNED their roles to the point where their street clothes made them look more authentic, not less. Javert in particular, from his voice to the way he carried himself redefined how the role should be played in my book.
