Honestly, I'm disappointed that they didn't really have a proper set for this scene. I can't find any videos of this actor performing the song with the extras and choreography that goes along with it.
When I saw Les Mis live for the first time, I cried 3 times. Fantine’s death, Eponine’s death, and Valjean’s death. After watching the movie a dozen or so times, Eponine’s death always gets me.
I honestly agree *so* much. She just seems really fun to play- You get to be rude and you get no repercussions because it's acting! Maybe that's why people enjoy playing antagonists so much. Helps get out that inner humour/bottled up emotions! 😂
It never fails - after watching convicts, domestic abuse and prostitutes dying for an hour the audience is so glad to see some comedy they laugh twice as hard as normal.
And I laugh. At You! Please tell me of all writers in time where everything is sunshine and enjoy. Oh what a wonderful world it would be if everyone was happy! Its not like that or?
@@perbjrnarsimensen818 I don't think you understand my statement - I'm that the comedy in this scene works so well because it comes at the point where the story starts to get too dark.
@@WillScarlet16 I apologize if I have misunderstood you. My first language is not English. I have read your comment several times now and I understand: Sorry🙂
A perfect example of understated acting. The characters appear drunk (slight staggers, and facial expressions) but not going over the top - not falling all over the place for example. Brilliant acting even when "just" singing the song,
Madame in particular is the perfect example - the same actress is used for the 25th anniversary, but she’s much more sober there, and even seems to be pretending to like Thenardier to his face more than being disgusted here.
I watched several performances of this show over the past few days, and have to say that these two are by far the best Madam and Monsieur Thénardier. They just capture the characters so perfectly, a complete sleeze and a drunken wench that love to hate and hate to love each other to the fullest. You can just tell that they love these roles and put their all into it, with little bits like the look Monsieur gives when he says 'lighten your purse' and how giddy he acts when going over how he charges extra for the mirror.
Absolutely NO ONE does this better than Alun. Makes all the other performances of this null and void. 10th Anniversary production hands down the VERY BEST ever!
I love the amount of fun that the actors and chorus are having. They don’t even have to phone it in. It’s so clear that they’re in the moment, and loving it.
I played the Organ pedal part for this. I was just there to add a bit of depth and gravitas. I was hidden watching the conductor on a monitor. I'll never forget it though.
Those genuine smiles at the end that just say "yeah, we just did that" is why I love music so much. You work so hard to get it right, then on the night of the performance everything just clicks and you do something amazing with people you've worked so hard with. Those are the best smiles and general great vibes you'll ever have.
No kidding! Sacha Baron Cohen and Helena Bonham Carter are poor subsitutes for Alun Armstrong and Jenny Galloway. They are much more invested in being the characters as opposed to the former, who were playing themselves as the characters.
@@MinecraftDude1245peni True, but it's better to have unknown actors who can truly represent the part rather than actors who are simply portraying themselves.
My favorite part is Marius apparently trying to get everyone else to do some kind of weird choreography with their legs. It shows up twice and it’s hilarious
I saw the first run production twice in London and Alun scored a goal in both performances as did jenny. They played off of each other perfectly and brought the house down!
@@johnfkarr so jealous !! all i can do is watching the 10th Anniversary concert on The UA-cam over and over , They are the Best and so Amazing ,Especially after watching Alun and Jenny's performance i just cant move on to others ,Love it so much !
Her performance, but even more than her performance is his reaction to her. The look on his face at 3:59 just screams "here we go again." Absolutely perfect.
I've never heard Alun Armstrong sing before; the delivery was amazing! Their timing was great and their voices complimented each other perfectly. I'd often thought Alun Armstrong would be ideal for this role but never imagined he'd actually done it!
I like how this version is actually funny. The Thenardiers are actually comedic relief in this instead of the disgusting, creepy version in the movie which almost made me barf
Cameron MAckinstosh threw out the plot of the book when he was adapting the musical .the film version was more faithful. Thénardiers" abducted Cosette and were going to sell her into child slavery like her mother. valjean was trying to track them down As Monseiur La Mayor to to atone for his past life as a criminal. they all end up dead
What a treat!!! I literally can’t stop watching this.. and I bought the DVD!!! Who knew Alun Armstrong could sing!!! What a voice!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Bravo!!!
2001, Manhattan. I'm a tourist from NZ. I walked out on to 5th Ave and was heckled by a hustler if I wanted tickets to the theater. We haggled back and forth till I got down to the a ridiculous amount. He agreed and I parted with $50 for 2 tickets not knowing if they were legit or not. Got to Broadway tand the ticket guy jumped on his walkie talkie asking for back up. I thought my wife and i were gonna be arrested. A man with a white tuxedo and white gloves came down and asked us to follow him upstairs, we were given the best seats in the house (similar to the old men in the Muppets show). We couldn't believe our luck. We were sitting next to Japanese royalty who were dressed in tuxedos and ball gowns. I just had my swandri and jeans. It was the most incredible 3 hours of my life. I'd never been to a show before. One of the most thrilling parts is when the orchestra conductor threw his stick on to the stage for the bad cop to catch who caught it backwards, pointed it Jean Val Jean and tossed it back backwards to the conductor who continued to conduct as though nothing had ever happened. A magical once in a lifetime event I'll never forget.
Well, I would dare to think there was a time where the thernadier might have loved each other, but as time passed by they turned more into partners in crime than lovers.
A good friend posts bail for you Monday morning. A true friend sits right next to you in the patrol car saying “we might have gone a little to far this time.” Allways make sure you have both types in your life.
I'll never forget being a kid and watching the Seinfield episode where George sings this randomly throughout the whole episode 😅 made me love Les Mis from that moment on.
This is one of my favorite moments in this production, because the joy and fun the crew are having with the song just bleeds through and I get just as happy as they do singing it!
Anestis Jordanoglou Someone should make a master it, splice together all the best performances of the best actors to create the ultimate version of the play.
How the producers of the film version could replace this perfect pair, especially since Alun Armstrong is a well known film actor, with a couple far too young and Hollywood-cute.
Alun Armstrong was absolutely wonderful in the Royal Shakespeare Company production of The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby. His portrayal of Mr. Squeers was amazing. An extraordinarily talented actor and singer.
If you have a few hours you could read the professional bio of Armstrong. I mean just the list of characters he has played on stage, screen and television. You can definitely see signs of his mastery of the comedic characters in Shakespeare's works right here, but he has done everything from Arthur Millers Willy Loman, to Eugene Ionesco's Exit the King, to John Proctor in the Crucible. Its a very accomplished resume.
I just love, love les miserable - we went to see the stage performance years ago with these performers - fantastic - I was sat next to a Frenchman and he was really moved by the production, as was I - the whole show was perfection on many levels.
One of my favorite songs from Les Mis. Have seen this in the theater several times and I love it just as much as the first time. Every song is beautiful, yet some are sad. Alun Armstrong is hilarious!
Great performers like Alun Armstrong show everyone how musical bits should be done. No surprise that he was part of the original Les Mis cast in London in 85. Aside from his film work (Braveheart and Patriot Games) he was built for musical theatre. I only wish they would tour ever decade.
May be it’s just me but I find it really funny that you can see the cast members such as Fantine, Marius, Enjorlas and grown Cosette just swaying to the song. Especially when Colm Wilkinson reaches over and grabs a drink in the middle of it. IDK if that was supposed to be pet of the song or he needed that for his voice.
I am so very happy they got to do this. They both just seem so overjoyed. They are playing these unhappy people, but they are both so happy to be doing it. I am overjoyed watchign this.
Incredible performance! I don't know if someone has pointed this out before, but I also love how much his accent adds to his characterisation. Brilliant!
I love this. I play this over and over again. I honestly think the UK is the only place in the world where they can stage this with such perfection. I love the UK, always have and always will. Right, now you all know.
Even if I'm mostly familiar with les Mis because we studied extracts from it in middle school (I'm french, our teachers were not that sadistic), I can immediatly see how perfect these two are as the Thénardiers. They've got more appeal and character than drawn caricatures.
Superb casting for these rolls. Both play their parts brilliantly. Probably my favourite song from any musical (in terms of bringing the house down). Love it and can't wait for the day when we can go and see it live again.
![Master of the house is a catchy song [Seinfeld]](/img/n.gif)
You can just tell how much fun the chorus is having in this song
You're right! It IS a lot of fun!
Once you defeat all the other innkeepers, this song plays as the boss of all innkeepers appears
Sorry but no......
this is the SECRET BOSS LEVEL you reach when you FINALLY believe sleep is on the cards.
Why am I now tempted to put him as a bard in my next d&d campaign now.
@@teranward he’d be the villain in an all bard campaign. “You had a party in your inn room. There were damages. You now are face to face with the inn keeper. Roll initiative.”

It’s hard to watch this and not get emotional. This is the absolute epitome of perfect musical theatre. It’s simply does not get any better.
agree 100%
This!!!
Yes oh my god YES
Honestly, I'm disappointed that they didn't really have a proper set for this scene. I can't find any videos of this actor performing the song with the extras and choreography that goes along with it.

The “but there’s not much there” line being silent somehow makes it so much funnier help
When I was younger, I always thought I wanted to play Eponine or Fantine. Now, I want to play Madame. She's got all the best lines.
Comforter, philosopher, and lifelong shit!
I know right?
I honestly agree *so* much. She just seems really fun to play- You get to be rude and you get no repercussions because it's acting! Maybe that's why people enjoy playing antagonists so much. Helps get out that inner humour/bottled up emotions! 😂

Sacha and Helen are the worse.
Well at least Sacha put on a French accent
I agree!! The best version I have seen. 👍😊
after watching this more than 100 times (no exhaggeration) I still find no imperfection in this performance!
@@grahamd5418 yeah, very dark version I think. This duet is supposed to be funny
BEST THERNADIER COUPLE EVER!!!! THAT'S EXACTLY HOW I PICTURED THEM WHEN I WAS READING THE BOOKS, EXCEPT LIKE 60% MORE EVIL.
I agree totally!!
Saw them twice during the first run and they were as entertaining as I had a right to expect... and then even more so!
This is how the role is supposed to be These people took joy in ripping off people
Absolutely NO ONE does this better than Alun. Makes all the other performances of this null and void. 10th Anniversary production hands down the VERY BEST ever!
It's amazing how far he's come I saw him in get Carter, probably one of his first roles, he was terrible, very bad
Amen he’s the best
Agreed. Big movie star, classic actor.
Ikr, I watched the most recent Les Miserables concert and got disappointed by the Master of the House perfomance
100% agree - a masterpiece indeed
I love the amount of fun that the actors and chorus are having. They don’t even have to phone it in. It’s so clear that they’re in the moment, and loving it.
Jenny Galloway is the BEST madame forever!! she did the awesome job played both 10 years anniversary and 25 anniversary. No one can compares to her.
her excellence is a bit downhill in the 25th anniversary
I wasn’t a fan of this performance
I love how every version she does is a little different, but how in this version, she is incredibly shitfaced 🤣🤣🤣
I played the Organ pedal part for this. I was just there to add a bit of depth and gravitas. I was hidden watching the conductor on a monitor. I'll never forget it though.
That's awesome! You were part of the definitive recording of Les Mis (In my opinion at least)
I kinda expected you to end with “and laughing me arse off”
The movie failed entirely because they forgot the cheeky bassoon noise
Movie felt too forced in these characters. And the patrons too stupid to see that they're getting ripped off.
@@cainster nah the movie version of the thenadiers was better
@@MatthewDonnelly-wn8pe Bullshit.
@@cainster nah its the truth
all other flaws of the movie would be null and void if they just included the bassoon

Wasn't good at all*
@@laurathei8207 Its probably the few decent parts of the movie (nearly the rest is just ooof)
But the movie is nothing compared to this
I can see Marius, Cosette, Valjean, Javert, and the les amis boys enjoying and laughing at the back.
My favorite part is Marius apparently trying to get everyone else to do some kind of weird choreography with their legs. It shows up twice and it’s hilarious
@@beek.4860 he's talking to javert! you can see at some point during the first or second chorus they're both laughing and dancing

This song makes it somewhat easy to forget that the Thernardier's are utterly vile. The closest thing the book or movie have to true villains.
The way she staggers around the stage drunk is Perfection!
I agree - she captured the woman perfectly - and btw so did he capture the guy - just was blessed by their performance.
Her performance, but even more than her performance is his reaction to her. The look on his face at 3:59 just screams "here we go again." Absolutely perfect.
That is how she tolerates him!
I've seen many versions of this song. This is the best and ultimate version. Nothing compares.
I've never heard Alun Armstrong sing before; the delivery was amazing! Their timing was great and their voices complimented each other perfectly. I'd often thought Alun Armstrong would be ideal for this role but never imagined he'd actually done it!

I can’t believe how fun this is to watch
Just a brilliant song and performed here with real passion and humour. Alun Armstorng is 'masterful' as the Master.
What a treat!!! I literally can’t stop watching this.. and I bought the DVD!!! Who knew Alun Armstrong could sing!!! What a voice!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Bravo!!!
I only came across this because of George Costanza singing the chorus in Seinfeld, now I’m hooked.....absolutely brilliant
Ditto
Same
Pipe down, Chorus boy!
Alun is fabulous in this….he is made for the part …..best one ever…
People that able to watch this live are blessed
I like how the innkeeper himself seems startled at his own prices.

Everyone-even characters like Javert- bopping along in the background is so wholesome I can't
In my experience, these two acid love is more intense and sincere than those similar to say, Marius and Cossete
Mauro Daniel D'Ambrosio Probably because the only beings that could one another are... well... one another.
To be fair Cosette and Marius knew each other for like a week, these two have been together for years
I have to agree
Well, I would dare to think there was a time where the thernadier might have loved each other, but as time passed by they turned more into partners in crime than lovers.

True. The 10th anniversary is my favorite les mis cast. They're quite accurate to the novel. Except for Enjolras.
Anestis Jordanoglou 9
Matt Lucas does play the part brilliantly to be fair, he's really done well.
The twat from the film is what it says on the tin, a twat.
Alun Armstrong is the best in this role.
How the producers of the film version could replace this perfect pair, especially since Alun Armstrong is a well known film actor, with a couple far too young and Hollywood-cute.
In my opinion the best version of the musical is this one.
This is an amazing performance by Alun Armstrong. Insurmountable!
I've had this song stuck in my head for a long time
Timeless. This song will be great in another 100 years.
Alun Armstrong was absolutely wonderful in the Royal Shakespeare Company production of The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby. His portrayal of Mr. Squeers was amazing. An extraordinarily talented actor and singer.
"don't make me laugh" is my favorite line, she is having just so much fun :]
Hands down the best version of this song.
I’m always enamored with how much fun all the performers seem to be having
If you have a few hours you could read the professional bio of Armstrong. I mean just the list of characters he has played on stage, screen and television. You can definitely see signs of his mastery of the comedic characters in Shakespeare's works right here, but he has done everything from Arthur Millers Willy Loman, to Eugene Ionesco's Exit the King, to John Proctor in the Crucible. Its a very accomplished resume.
I think his first acting job was in Get Carter
The definitive performance of Master of the House by the one and only Monsieur Thénardier and Madame Thénardier
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!! BEST PERFORMANCE FOREVER!!!!!
I just love, love les miserable - we went to see the stage performance years ago with these performers - fantastic - I was sat next to a Frenchman and he was really moved by the production, as was I - the whole show was perfection on many levels.
I used to watch this as a kid and now im addicted to orchestra songs
This, this is the song that got me into musical theatre as a kid
This is the best version.
One of my favorite songs from Les Mis. Have seen this in the theater several times and I love it just as much as the first time. Every song is beautiful, yet some are sad. Alun Armstrong is hilarious!
Great performers like Alun Armstrong show everyone how musical bits should be done.
No surprise that he was part of the original Les Mis cast in London in 85.
Aside from his film work (Braveheart and Patriot Games) he was built for musical theatre. I only wish they would tour ever decade.
Best rendition ever, love it
This is, without a doubt, my most favorite part of the musical!
I watch this over and over. I love this song
These two are extroadinary I have never seen those parts acted better with great singing a tour de force !
Best version Ever!

I am so very happy they got to do this. They both just seem so overjoyed. They are playing these unhappy people, but they are both so happy to be doing it. I am overjoyed watchign this.
Thier characters are such scumbags. Jenny, and Adam do such a great job playing them. Adam is really animated and Jenny is hilarious.
How this cast didn't make a movie is so strange! it would be legendary!
50 years old and I just learned what a valise is thanks to this. Kinda like how I learned what a beguine is by listening to chess.
Incredible performance! I don't know if someone has pointed this out before, but I also love how much his accent adds to his characterisation. Brilliant!
One of the best theatre musicals ever performed ❤
such a fun production of the song, adore the energy
This Is absolutely the best and most believeable I have seen off LM! Just as I Imagine them " Thénardier & Madame Thénardier" Just great!!
Discovered this version about a week ago and have listened to it about 20 times since. Sung and performed fabulously.
I love this. I play this over and over again. I honestly think the UK is the only place in the world where they can stage this with such perfection. I love the UK, always have and always will. Right, now you all know.
Seinfeld brought me here hehe. Definitely will be looking forward to watch this play in its entirety some day
They look like they're having so much fun!
My brother had a cassette tape of this. This is definitely my favorite song.
Fantastic performance! Brought the house down.
Wonderful acting. Best version i'v ever seen.
Fantastic performance from Alun.
This is what musical theatres about ❤
Even if I'm mostly familiar with les Mis because we studied extracts from it in middle school (I'm french, our teachers were not that sadistic), I can immediatly see how perfect these two are as the Thénardiers. They've got more appeal and character than drawn caricatures.
It's so brilliant each time I watch it. ❤
Love Alun Armstrong. Loved him best as Brian Lane in "New Tricks".
alun armstrong is a favorite actor for me. it was in the last year i learned he sang. phil davis is another.
This is the best version imo
Agree!
Superb casting for these rolls. Both play their parts brilliantly. Probably my favourite song from any musical (in terms of bringing the house down). Love it and can't wait for the day when we can go and see it live again.
I can’t hear this without thinking of George Costanza. 😂
Best version
Alun Armstrong is far and away the best Thenadrier ever
