Michael Ball is so underwhelming as Javert! I love Bradley Jaden as Enjolras and he’s great as Javert too. Alfie Boe’s ‘One day more’ at 2:36 gives me chills.
He was very good when we saw him on stage, but I have to agree, here he looks bored ^^ Bradley was incredible both as Enjolras and as Javert. Alfie Boe is excellent but I went on a day when I knew John Owen Jones was singing, because for me, he's the best ever.
In this concert it is the wonderful Micheal Ball who was the original Marius. Personally I do not think he suits the role. He is Marius and made that role. His voice is emotive. May I suggest you watch the 10 year concert. Lea Salonga is Eponine and Ruthie Henshall is Fantine. The Javert is Philip Quast who is brilliant and possibly the best ever in the role.
@@DebbieKnightSport oh yep -i totally get and for 99% of the score i agree with you (the support on some of those notes cant be beat). My fave JVJ is John-Owen Jones.
@@sergiocontreras3026 John Owen Jones is even better IMO, and I'm still gutted they didn't pick a night when he was singing to film the show, because Alfie Boe cancelled so often that JOJ ended up doing most of the nights in reality...
I don't care for actress plying Eponine -- not her voice, not the casting of this woman. She certainly looks out of place, and I don't care for her voice. I am sure that there were many young women ho could have played the part better.
How on earth does she look out of place? Vocally, she’s possibly the best Eponine the West End has seen in recent years. I hope I’m not correct but I have the feeling you’re focusing on the colour of her skin
@@BOWYERD999555 that's exactly what i thought, the fact he was saying she just "looks out of place". it seems like he's hinting at that reason without saying it
Such a shame, this nearly blasphemous departure from opening night. I’m sure that the original cast are horrified. The delivery is so bland and devoid of soul that one could almost equate it to a Joe Biden speech.
Really, that would be in your opinion I take it ?. I thought it quite marvelous and I have seen many versions of Les Mis. I absolutely adored this production and I am at a total loss as to what speech given by the President of the USA you can possibly equate this to. Rather odd statement😅
Doesn't matter how many times I watch this, Enjolras' first line is perhaps the GOAT fist-pump moment in any musical number ever.
Its that exact fist pump that got me hooked on Bradley- can never watch it enough times.
yeah, it is amazing how such a detail can change everything. great!
ONE MORE DAY BEFORE THE STORM!!!
This Enjolras is my favorite one Ive ever heard!
Saw him live back then, he was absolutely breathtaking. Been a fan of his ever since! And saw him as Javert a few years later... also amazing.
Bradley Jaden is Javert again in the 2024 arena tours. He was phenomenal
Love the voice of Marius in this one
Towering.......And omg AlfieBoe.
One Day More is my favourite song from Les Misérables The Staged Concert
This is bringing back such amazing memories when I saw everyone in this cast in concert
oooh you're so so lucky
Same! It truly was an incredible cast.

Rob Houchen the one and only Marius❤
Thank you. My journey to find out who this best marius ever's identity is over.
Michael Ball
Michael sings over the cast regardless of the role he plays. Every character. Every time.
I actually didn't realize it was Michael Ball until I saw the cast.
I love the man, but like... he overpowers everyone. The opera singer doesn't stand a chance!
I'd follow Bradley Jaden to war anytime
Ditto mate, I've got a weakness for man buns, I can't lie.
ONE DAY MORE!!!
Bradley Jaden and Rob Houchen for the win ❤
LOVEE eponine here!!
Восторг!
2:34 Valjean 😭💐💐👏❤️
What a STELLAR cast omg❤
Who is the actor that plays Russell crowe’s character in the movie? He was magnificent
So was enjolras

Michael Ball...the original Marius.
Enjolras is such a great singer. But with that man-bun, he looks like he lives in Santa Monica and shops at Erewhon.
What’s the name of Marous in this play anyone please ???
Nick Jonas
That’s Rob Houchen
@@valerieboots4267 you are joking obviously😂
jaden is great but kinda overacted at this time.
I'm not a fan of Alfie Boe as Javert, his voice is too operatic, give me Bradley every time!
Alfie is JVJ,
@@PS-DLMA not for me
@@DebbieKnightSport sorry, i meant in this cast, you say he is Javert.
@@PS-DLMA oh right, I get you, I just don’t like his voice for Les Mis, it’s not the right tone
@@DebbieKnightSport oh yep -i totally get and for 99% of the score i agree with you (the support on some of those notes cant be beat). My fave JVJ is John-Owen Jones.
NO MORE ALFIE BOE!!!!
Whats wrong with alfie boe?
When someone with a better voice arrives... hard to find for the role. He has been the best Valjean for more than 10 years.

her voice is lovely, and how could she look out of place? she seemed significantly older though.
I actually thought how good her breath control was on the low notes.... Really enjoyed her!

Really love how they arrange Enjolras highlight the “Do you here the people sing” and “tomorow is the judgement day” line ( ܸ ⩌⩊⩌ ܸ )
