If we've been fortunate enough to have heard Adam Pascal's rendition of "Bring Him Home" we know that this is a role he was born to do. Please sign the petition at the bottom so it can be submitted to the powers that be of Broadway...
"Bring Him Home" to the Imperial theater this fall...

No thanks.
Huh? Just because he can sing a song doesn't mean he's right for the role.
And why would a petition from his built in fan base have any say if he is cast or not?
LOL. This doesn't even have 600 signatures yet. it's goal is only 1k! Because 1000 signatures would instill in the producers that he'd sell tix.
The article that first introduced this a few days ago left a horrid taste in my mouth about him.

I was going to leave this forum but saw this silly post because he is a rock singer and not classically trained and thus makes him unable to do the role

LOL Mr. Smith, the people in Les Mis are not classically singing the music.
They're not rock singing the music either. ^
I never said they were

let me know when someone starts a petition to get Joshua Colley cast as Jean Valjean

They've already cast the JVJ replacement. It's Alfie Boe.

omg coool
God, I hope that's true.
The guy has half of a voice left. He definitely isn't right for this rold. That's one song out of a whole show
what do you mean he has half of a voice left
It always confuses me when people think the music is Les Miserables requires classically trained singers... if anything, toss in the best pop singers you can find. Because it's all, you know, pop music.
"who do you guys think would be a good replacement?"
I think it should be you Philly as you keep telling us how brilliant you are and should be on Broadway.
Still waiting for your audition tape.
people don't really do audition tapes for Broadway. Thats mostly for television and movies
Les Miserables began as a fusion of pop, rock opera, and classical/operetta. As the show has progressed through history, the pop and rock opera elements have been smoothed over, and the show has become modern pop operetta more than anything with a foot in rock.
I saw a production in Pittsburgh last year that used a primarily rock sound in the vocalists, and it worked very well- made the show sound fresh and new because the sound has so often become a vocal replica of the more legit productions.
