Phantom of the Opera on the other hand is a french novel, but the musical is made by Andrew Lloyd Webber.

      The book of Les Misérables is studied by every french people in school whereas the musical which is in english, so not understandable for all is not known at all. Moreover, as much as I love it, the musical it is not faithfull to the original story, and usually mess up with history. (like at the begining of the video they mention the revolution of 1789, whereas the story beginns in 1815 and only talks about 1832 riots that failed). That can explain the lack of enthusiasm of people.

      Sarah Hamilfan Well, no. It’s not based on the French concept album, it’s adapted from the French concept album, most of the songs are the same. And the first stage production was in French and in France. So it’s arguably a French musical. But French people don’t really like musicals and don’t really like when their cultural and famous novels are turned into something else, especially this one which tells a part of our history. So they turned their back on a masterpiece of a musical, which thankfully was made even better and acclaimed by the British people.

      James would have to either be the prima donna in _Madame Butterfly_ or a Kabuki play if he was in Japan. Extra points if he finagled his way into the Miyako Odori

      @@marcelinon.1897 I would love to watch a musical in the philippines but i think most filipinos aren't into musicals that much. It'd be nice if someone turned Noli Me Tangere or El Filibusterismo into an actual musical though.

    Watching this, as a french girl, makes me laugh so much. Parisians do not seem very nice but, for sure, he might makes their day a little bit funnier. I hope James and the dancers had a good experience with baguettes and croissants ! You are a genius, James, keep doing !
    PS: Les Misérables is not about French Revolution but about June Rebellion in 1832, an other "revolution" less unknown than the one of 1789. But even french people make mistakes about it :)
