Will the UK Amelie transfer to New York? — Page 2

JBroadway said: "I don't love the accents on the CR, but I'm not surprised that it happened, considering everyone was b*tching about how the Broadway production "didn't feel French enough" - one of the sillier criticisms of the show IMO."

I agree, the show already feels far more French in the new version, regardless of the accents. Beyond the updated orchestrations, with the string and accordion-heavy instrumentation that's usually associated with the French aesthetic, the story is more playful and emotional, hallmarks of the storytelling seen in French art, especially in the original film.

What would be odd though, if indeed the British cast transfers, is the variety of accents if they do not use a French one. The UBER sexy Chris Jared who plays Nino has a very thick Scottish brogue. Audrey, as stated, has a French Canadian accent, and the rest of the cast have accents from all over the UK.
