There are a few on adam-pascal.com. Other than his publicity shot and a few from closing night, the photo coverage was not extensive.

Since we now have a thread, let's discuss his performance and throughts on him as the Emcee.

I was at a table right next to the stage. I thought he did an ok job. I think this was my last time seeing it. Of the emcees I saw he was somewhere in the middle as far as my opinion of them. Neil Patrick Harris was my favorite. I never saw Alan Cumming. Adam didn't throw himself into the role as much as I like. He was kind of reserved.

NPH??? I never knew he played the Emcee! That would have been interesting to see.

Neil Patrick Harris is also my favorite Emcee.
John Stamos is my least favorite.

My problem with John Stamos wasn't neccesarily his performance, which was okay, but the audience. They came to see Blackie from GH or Uncle Jesse from Full House. It ruined a lot of powerful moments in the show because of the squealing ladies, squealing at him showing his butt at the end of act one, laughing at him wearing a dress. It was awful.

Can we change the thread title to ADAM PASCAL IN CABARET?

You know, I just noticed in one of the closing night photos, it's kinda weird to see the cast in make up in a real light rather than the spotlight's pale, eerie glow.

I saw him in the role and he was just fine apart from the fact that his voice was almost too strong for the character. A lot of people STILL think this guy is not an actor - he is, and he proved it (at least to me) in Cabaret.

Adam's press shot:



NPH:



I saw Adam twice, after seeing Jon Secada once. Secada was dreadful, but I loved Adam (yes, bias noted). Years later, in retrospect, I suppose Adam was not quite the revelation I thought him at the time, but I still do think he was wonderful, especially for someone who had never stepped outside of his comfort zone on stage like that before, and given only half the normal rehearsal time. I had so much fun watching him on stage because it was so apparent that he was loving playing the role. I found him captivating, and it's still one of my favorite theater experiences. I miss the whole production an awful lot, too.

I saw Adam as well, after having only seen NPH. They were both fantastic. I, too, miss the production. It was so distinct. I am glad that it had such a long, healthy run though.

I was watching the video clips on the website for the French production this morning. It looks beautiful, and that made me miss it even more. I wish I had caught on earlier (or that my parents hadn't played the "you're too young" card, really) so I could've had the chance to see more takes on the Emcee.

Neil Patrick Harris was amazing in Cabaret. He and Alan are my top favorite Emcees. The first tour Emcee was also very good. Alan is raunchier, more flamboyant, and mysterious in a scary way which made him a top contender. Also a good actor, Neil was vocally phenomenal with more quality tone compared to Alan's. His style is quite different, less raunchier but still good.
