Jon Jon Briones makes the whole show, the best engineer ever!!!
Completely agree
Yeahh
Yessss
Completely agree
I was able to see Jon Jon as the Engineer on Broadway, the evening after the opening. My daughter and I waited outside afterwards for the cast to come out, and we were both able to have our picture taken with Jon Jon; it was so exciting!! (P.S. Jon Jon was also awesome in the series about the murder of Gianni Versace.)
Lea was the soul in the original Miss Saigon, but in this version of Miss Saigon Jon Jon is fucking amazing, he is the soul of the show
EXACTLY
jon jon briones ist he best enginner performarce
Saw it twice on broadway. He’s insanely talented. So is Eva
I did as well, it was so incredible
He really makes this role his own. Such amazing artistry!!!
He truly has set the bar for any future Engineers....and it's a high one. His back story is fantastic as well.
He provides some comedic moments in the musical. I mean in the 2tth anniversary filmed show, the audience laughs after quite a few of his lines. He is so funny and amazing
I do like the 25th Anniversary filmed
saw Jon Jon on Broadway and he was incredible! also, I met him after the show and he was incredibly kind and hilarious! all around great guy 👍🏾
That was pretty funny though... "you can say whatever you want if you say the american dream after it" 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Les Miserables shades it as the greatest ever Broadway/West End musical for me, but Miss Saigon comes a close second. Great talent on show here. Love it.
Les Mis and Mis Saigon were written by thew same guys
I saw this show like ten years ago in Broadway, it’s still haunting me. I love how Jon Jon version American Dream!
Fantastic Jon Jon Briones
And now, Jon Jon is gonna play Hermes in Hadestown on Broadway! So proud of him!
The best performance of an actor goes to Jon-Jon Briones! The best engineer ever!👏👏👏
The American Dream is one of the best musical numbers I know! If not even the best! I love it!
5:48 hahaha i laugh so hard with this part😂
I watched the DVD last year. Briones was excellent and gave a fabulous performance as the Engineer.
Thanks very much for posting this.
Jon Jon Briones knocks this role out of the park
I love miss Saigon so much, I one day dream of playing Kim
Grettee Pham you will ❤❤
JonJon Briones was magnificent. Bravo!
Wonderful performance!!! absolutely floored when I saw this at the Kennedy Center!
Jon, Jon steals the whole show. Absolutely fabulous. The best cast ever.
Jon Jon Briones is incredibly brilliant.
This Engineer sets the standard
I do like Miss Saigon, it's my 3rd favourite musical and I saw the new production at the Prince Edward Theatre in London on Thursday 2nd January 2015 in a matinee performance and it was brilliant and spectacular
out of curiosity, what’s your favourite musical?
@@quinnmorlotti My favourite musical is Half A Sixpence
What's a matinee performance?
@@ralpcambay5216 Matinees are in the afternoon
My favourite Show. Seen MISS SAIGON 14X
Lea Salonga and Will Chase is still the best for me as kim and chris . the chemistry and voices is perfect.
Will Chase played CHRIS??? 😯🤔 When?? Where?? 🙈
Swede Potato Pie In Manila, 2000.
My favourite musical of all time. I wish it would come back to London
i love engineer
8:37 Bye Rachelle
Dei Yuwell lol I love her little wave😂😂😂
진짜 최고...
17 dislikes couldnt smell the American Dream and Dance like it was the last night of the world!
i’m playing in ellen in my local production rn. i am absolutely in love with this show
ngl how people dont find him funny........ jon jon briones is the most insane actor on any stage.
I came here to see the Helicopter Scene but stayed for the acting
😂 What about the music though?? 🙈
Auditioning for this in a few days hopefully I get the part Id love the chance to play the engineer with my own twist
oooh good luck!!
@@cassiopeia3793 thank you!
Did you get it?
Wishing u luck.. I auditioned on Monday for Kim here in Germany 🙏🏼 to play it in Vienna. Hoping for the best
Jadelene P Did u get it??
I needed to watch this to wash my eyes from the new engineer.
Amazing
Did the audience not like this performance? They were stone cold the whole time. I can only imagine their face just like confused and uncomfortable during The Engineer's performance.
Also was Michael McIntyre mocking the performance?
I think the audience were muted. You kinda can hear them laugh at 4:36
Nah they tone down the audience for the recording. Also Michael wasn’t mocking the performance - he was just making a joke about (with it being a performance in front of royalty) that he’s been told to keep his jokes clean and PC - but in one musical performance they can say tits, ass and hump a car! The American Dream!
Outstanding.
Jon Jon is a revelation! Best Engineer
Brilliant,JonJon!
we watched it in school- we got all songs Stuck in our mind
DEFINITELY IN THE TOP 2 BEST ENGINEERS.

06:37
Dr. Hanover!
fuck yes!
What a jerk in the end. “I can only apologize” apologize for what? This is a show and they’re in a theatre.
I know it supposed to be funny but he’s taking it a little bit to the dirt. Can not laugh about that shit he spit out.
Whatever.. mind blowing cast. And The best engineer beside the Orginal cast, of all time ♥️🙏🏼
It might be because of how dirty the theme of the song The American Dream is if going PG was the goal of the segment. This version is toned down, but it’s still highly inappropriate, because that’s the whole deal of the song. The Engineer is singing about what he sees the American Dream as, and since he sells girls’ bodies for a living, it’s no surprise that he sees the American Dream as what is related to his occupation, which is operating a business of prostitution. Even when it was toned down specifically for this show, it still made me uncomfortable, in a sense that the song accomplished its goal. I suppose the host was just saying that like “sorry if that made you uncomfortable, I know this might not be hat you were expecting but yeah that’s that”
He actually apologises to the Royalty who are in the audience, and it’s meant to be family friendly 😂
Dr Hanover
😻
“We’re just sexy bitches aren’t we?”
It’s a shame that Last Night of the World was so rushed. I do realise that there were time constraints.
He's done this better!
Were females that forward originally?
Just remembered why I hated this musical from beginning to end, the American tourists loved it.
Jon Jon is great and all but come on, what about Leo Tavarro Valdez? he was PERFECT.. He's the best engineer by far.. He's got the whole look and attitude. Jon Jon is way too yankee pop star for me.
Yes,i totally agree...Leo Valdez is doing great in playing The engineer in MISS SAIGON manila leg...😊😊😊😊😊
Engineer in reality is asian
He's French-Indochinese so it can go both ways...
@@axelpatrickb.pingol3228 wait but he is Filipino right?
I saw Miss Saigon about a month ago and the engineer was a woman. VERY funny
Was it Joana Ampil?
One of the best musicals ever !!!
dead crowd
Am I the only one who thinks this song is such a weird part of the show? Like, it's right before Kim dies and we have people singing and dancing around a car. It has nothing to do with the story.
That's precisely why it works. The number there to serve as a contrast to a tragic conclusion which is about to occur to a main character.
WtF? How come they sound like Micky and Minnie mouse ??!! 😂 Nothing compares to Lea...
Totally nailes the engineer role!
