Get a friend who looks at you like Carrie Hope Fletcher looks at Matt Lucas

Ball and Boe are such a natural double act, absolutely hilarious 😂

I really enjoyed seeing Les Miserables The Staged Concert at the Gielgud Theatre in London on Saturday 5th October 2019 in the matinee afternoon performance and it was brilliant and I saw it with Alfie Boe, Michael Ball and Matt Lucas and they were amazing

Love Air B and B (Ball and Boe)! Magic happens when they sing together!

I love the way Michael Ball looks as Javert. The way his character looks in that costume and makeup is exactly what I feel like Javert should look like.

I saw it on the 8th October last year and recently at the Sondheim. It’s simply the best ever production. How lucky we are to have Sir Cameron Macintosh and a cast of the best of the best. Matt Lucas....that role was made for you.

Ball and boe are making a new album called back together. If they don’t do the confrontation they would have missed a huge opportunity

[@withflaws]

I was lucky enough to see it on Monday evening and it was superb! I think the singing and music was better than when I’ve seen the full production. I also met some of the cast at stage door too and Matt, Michael and Carrie especially were all so lovely and humble too.

[@aramis5301]

I hope so, because the whole cast was amazing. I would love a version with John Owen Jones (Alfie Boe is excellent too but I prefer JOJ). Bradley Jaden is probably the best Enjolras I've ever heard, too. Pretty much the entire cast was excellent, I loved Eponine, Marius and the Thenardiers in particular.

[@bellaroberts21]

Got really excited for second until I looked at the ticket prices :(

[@barbaracosh9591]

The ticket price reflects the high quality production. It is also nearly three hours of the best theatre you could possibly EVER experience. I saw it last year and have been again this December before they were forced to close again. The price I paid this year was more than I have ever paid for a ticket but I didn’t think twice. It was worth every pound.

[@annikawheble9593]

I've always wanted to play Eponine, unrequitted love. O used to dress up in my mum's hat and trench coat and sing all her songs, in front of my dad's three door mirror. She's still my dream part to play

[@dianedn3739]

What about John Owen-Jones? He shares the role of Valjean, he’s brilliant , brings the house down & what he brings to the role is in another league, but he’s not even mentioned! This omission is as disgraceful & disrespectful as it must be hurtful. The theatre is a business in which self promotion takes precedence over fairness & feelings. Thenardiers lyrics in the sewer are equally applicable to show biz “It’s a world where the dog eats the dog, & they kill for the bones in the street” & I would respect those responsible much more if they had some generosity of spirit.

[@commander3576]

I’ve booked for October as a birthday gift. I don’t live in the Uk so it’ll be a bit of hassle with traveling and booking but totally worth it. I chose to see JOJ because I cannot stand Alfie with his zero emotions and operatic-full-force voice. I’ve seen JOJ and Carrie in Dubai a few years ago and I’m so thrilled to see Carrie plays Fantine. The cherry on the top is Michael Ball - as someone who listens to the 10th anniversary concert religiously; seeing Ball is a dream comes true!

[@oliviaroberts5673]

you'll have a great time it really is incredible!

[@jimmoyles9278]

Ball was a superb Marius but a fairly average Javert, Lucas one of the best T’s, Boe in the top 5 JVJ’s and Fletcher was ok …. all IMHO of course.

Boe - the best JVJ!
