I am very excited to finally see him live in Woman In White. I first noticed him on my Les Miz 10th Anniv. DVD and he just amazed me, I can't listen to anyone else sing "Empty Chairs at Empty Tables." Then I saw him sing among other things "Losing My Mind" on the Hey Mr. Producer! video tape, again outstanding. But he totally won me over on the Andrew Lloyd Webber Celebration tape, with rousing renditions of "All I Ask Of You," "Gesthmane," "Vaults of Heaven," and "Love Changes Everything." What a talent. I don't think many theatre actors today can compare w/ his vocal talent...and I adore most theatre actors' voices.

I have to agree with everything. Can't wait to see WIW. I loved him in Patience. Besides having a great voice, he is turning into a very good character actor.

You know there is a UK theatre message board where chat of Michael Ball is banned! re: MICHAEL BALL LOVE THREAD!!!

Nice to see it alive and well here though. He may be cheese personified but he is talented cheese and a wonderful voice.

Oh, Michael Ball. Such talent. Hope to keep seeing him over here. And yes, jimmirae, he has very nice assets.

Michael Ball makes me swoon. I have been a fan since I first heard the cast recording to Aspects of Love. He is super talented and such a hottie! So glad he is back on Broadway...too bad he is in a fat suit though!

Give the guy some dignity! We are very lucky to have him on our shores again!!!! Even though he is blessed with wonderful physical attributes you won't be seeing them in WIW!!! His acting abilities really shine through! ...and that VOICE!! Welcome back to Broadway Michael!!!! Everyone one needs to see this performance!! It just doesn't get much better!!!

He came into my life, so to speak, via the London Production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and I've been a fan ever since. His singing has moved me to tears. His performance as Bunthorne showed me just how well he can handle comedy, and his portrayal of Fosco gave me shivers up my spine.

I wish Michael and the WiW cast all the best for Thursday.

I forgot to mention in my previous post that I observed him with his fans during his tenure in "Patience". He was kind and generous with everyone. The oldest and the youngest. And after chatting with members of that cast, I found that he was a team player and fun to work with. Glad you are back, Michael.

ooo, a love thread...
Can you feel the love tonight???

Well, I wish Michael absolutely all the best. Thrilled to have him back on Broadway. He's one of my favourite performers of all time and has a beautiful voice and marvellous personality. re: MICHAEL BALL LOVE THREAD!!! No need to mention he's gorgeous, is there??

Break a leg, Michael! I love your ~deliciously dastardly~ Count Fosco!

He's got a great voice, and is excellent as Fosco - I can't even imagine Michael Crawford in that role.

Break a leg Michael!

Ahhhhhhh...I've loved Michael Ball devotedly since I was but a child. Les Miserables, Aspects, what more could a girl want? He's such an amazing performer. He radiates charm and charisma and you can't help but watch, slack-jawed, as he performs, and I've yet to see him perform live! I can't imagine the delight a live experience will produce! =)

Oh, there is so much to say about this mans talent, charm, generosity, and appeal! I heart him.

I would love to see him and Raúl Esparza perform a duet together. THAT would be incredible.

I have to wholeheartedly agree with all of you. No one can sing Enpty chairs like him. I love Aspects simply because you get hear Micheal's amazingly beautiful voice. I also saw the ALW celebration with him singing. bought it simply to have Micheal's version of Gethsemene. truly amazing talent! (and very good looking of course)
