I saw Nick last November and he was incredible as Valjean. Easily the best tenor performance I’ve ever seen. He and John Owen Jones are my two favorite Valjean’s of all time.
Could not agree more. Not that there are any real “throwaway songs” in this show, but Bring Him Home used to be one for me that I just kind of sat through. Cartell has made it one of my faves, which is nothing short of a miracle. At a performance I had seen in Omaha a few months before this, at the end of Bring Him Home the production had to pause for something like 3-4 minutes because of the standing ovation the audience gave. Never seen anything like it.
