I saw Les Miz on Sunday because I wanted to see the nine principal cast members perform together again before Lazar, Keenan Bolger, Galloway, and Lewis leave.
I think the current cast (alex,norm,lea,adam,aaron,gary,jenny,celia,ali) is the greatest cast of any broadway show of all time. Everyone gives an incredible performance each time. Jenny, Celia, Norm, and Aaron will be greatly missed.
I have seen the revival of Les Miz about twenty times, and the performance on Sunday was one of the best performances. Jenny, Celia, Norm, and Aaron probably gave their greatest performance for their roles. Norm added a little extra to his "stars" and his death scene. I think he added ten more seconds during the ending of stars. The whole audience practically gave a standing ovation after stars.
During the curtain call, Alex pulled Celia, Norm, Tess Adams, Jenny, and Aaron from the cast so that the crowd will recognize that this was their last performance. It was very nice. Also, Alex gave Norm a big hug at the end.
Good luck to Aaron, Celia, Jenny, Norm, and Tess Adams.

Posted: 4/23/07 at 6:23pmI love this cast (it's the only one I've seen but whatever) each member does something unique and special, and I just love it. Probalby NOT the best cast of any show ever, but I really liek it.

And I think you've only seen one Broadway show.

Posted: 4/23/07 at 6:33pmTo defend my opinion, what other show has nine talented principal cast members? These nine cast members sing their heart out during each performance.

Would it have killed you to type out the names of the characters instead of abbreviating them?
And I agree with blaxx.

Yes, you're right. Broadway has never seen anything like that, you can literary see the hearts popping out.
Try harder next time.

That can't be a serious question.
