I've been confused over the timeline of the last few scenes in Les Miserables and was wondering if anyone had a better grasp of the musical than I do. I'm assuming that Marius singing Empty Chairs at Empty Tables, then Cosette coming on for the reprise of A Heart Full of Love takes place fairly soon after Marius and Valjean return from battle. However, at the end of that scene, when Valjean explains his past, he tells Marius that he has to leave. Then it cuts to the wedding and Cosette going ...

Namo, please, this is a thread devoted to remembering 9/11 and post 9/11 New York (and the rest of the world for that matter), in a respectable, honorable way. This is not the time or place to bring in any unnecessary criticism or negativity.

That baby is going to be beautiful.

Does anybody know what constitutes "extreme risk"?

Which of Christine's songs/parts are pre-recorded? And is it only on Broadway, or do the touring companies do it as well?

People, lay off and let carhoop say what s/he wants to say.

Phantom of the Opera with Hugh Panaro in 2004. I turned to my dad after the show and demanded he sign me up for voice lessons the second we got home.

I agree with Ellen's Stardust Diner 100% Great place to go if you're with a group of friends, but something you may want to avoid if you're with a group that likes a quieter setting at the end of the night. Also, there's a place kitty corner to the Majestic Theater. It's a bit pricey, but every time I've gone to see Phantom of the Opera with a family member willing to foot the bill, I've had a great time. I'm not sure what it's called, but I believe it's on the second floor of the building ac...

Sean Hayes blew her out of the water. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVj_QCVeacY&feature=player_embedded#!

This isn't meant to cut her down, but having attended the concert, do you think she was she was lip synching? I wouldn't blame her and the cast if that was case, they would need to protect their voices.

Even though I don't think she's right for either part, I wish somebody would throw her a bone and just let her play Elphaba or Fanny so that she would finally shut up about how desperate she is to play those parts.

I'm not a huge fan of hers, but Jesus, I wish I had those cheekbones.

I saw him when he was on Broadway a few years ago. Granted, things could have changed between now and then, but I thought he was wonderful. I've seen both him and Alfred Molina, and I preferred Alfred Molina just because I thought had the whole package, but Fierstein was a close second. He was extremely committed and passionate throughout the whole performance and, as someone said in an earlier post, the scene where he rejects Chava was heartbreaking. His voice actually added to that scene, j...

I saw the production in Chicago, but haven't seen it in New York yet. From what I can tell, I liked Clandango better. The show itself is by no means a work of art, but it's a fun show to sit down, relax and laugh during. The writing is pretty one dimensional, but it was still very entertaining. However, this is just from what I saw, I have no idea what changes have been made since then. For me, Krysta Rodriguez (sp?) was phenomenal and probably the person who stood out the most to me. I'm gla...

When I think of a successful actor, the first thing that pops into my mind is a photoshopped tear and plastic angel wings. I don't even know what to say about this..Pathetic? Hilarious? Just an attempt to try to be "artsy" or "deep" that went very, very wrong.

Question about the show in general-I saw the performance on December 12th and during Jackie Hoffman's part in Full Disclosure, when she's talking about her "full body enhancement", she said a line that was something like, "I hear Tiger Woods is taking anything nowadays", then waited a few seconds and finished with "I just peed". We were trying to figure out if this was ad-libbed or if some writer actually had the balls to put it in. Either way, it was pure perfection and the audience's applau...

Haha, thank you so much for this. I saw her in The Adams Family a few weeks ago in Chicago and she had multiple show stopping scenes. So good.

Was she any good?
