Anyone know what Jones will do once Les Miserables closes this month. I know he gave up the part in London to come here and was wondering what his plans might be now, He is amazing! Saw him in London at The Queen's Theatre--WOW!

I think I read somewhere that he's going to be taking some time off before returning to the UK. There is mention on his official site that he will have his own program as part of a documentary about Welsh performers in the West End. Sadly this will only air in the UK on ITV.

He would obviously have to go back to London unless he secures another role in th U.S., since he is only here on a temporary work visa.

yes, but don't work visas go by date & not employment? i don't know what his visa expiration date is, but if it goes by date he might have some time on it to hang around a bit. so not so obvious to those how don't know the visa details.

I wonder if he'll get paid not to audition before his next gig (again).
