Since it was a Wednesday Matinee, I was expecting some of the cast to be out, but everyone was in. I was simply blown away by JOJ and Tee's performance. While the show is a classic, I think the performance I saw today is probably one of the best performances of any show I have seen in a long time. It should be a crime if you don't catch either JOJ or Tee perform before the show ends in September. "
I've seen Hayden Tee as Javert three times now and he is just unbelievably good. I had never heard of him before he joined the cast and was just blown away the first time I saw him. Definitely worth seeing.
"
I find Hayden's Javert to be more of a callous and relentless inspector than someone with a nearly morbid obsession over his own understanding of justice. Just my two cents.

I can see that and tend to agree. It's a matter of interpretation for both the actor and part, but I think it fits that part. I always disliked the character of Javert, because I believe good cop should show compassion and use discretion when needed. Javert never shows compassion until he is morally conflicted at the end.
