EXCLUSIVE Featurette: 'Finding Kim' Miss Saigon: 25th Anniversary (The Fan Carpet)

With music by Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil (‘Les Misérables’) and lyrics by Boublil and Richard Maltby Jr, Sir Cameron Mackintosh’s MISS SAIGON is loosely inspired by Puccini’s ‘Madame Butterfly’.
Set in 1975 in Saigon, at the tail end of the Vietnam War it tells the dramatic tale of Kim a young bar girl orphaned by war who falls in love with an American GI only for their love and lives to be torn apart by the fall of Saigon.
Alongside Eva Noblezada as Kim, there are starring roles for Alistair Brammer as Chris, Jon Hon Briones as The Engineer and Hugh Maynard as John. In addition, lucky cinema goers will be treated to a once in a lifetime showstopper as members of the cast past and present join together in a show-stopping finale featuring the likes of Lea Salonga, Jonathan Pryce and Simon Bowman.
Don’t miss MISS SAIGON: THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY PERFORMANCE, in cinemas for one night only on the 16th October 2016

god shut up. hating Eva doesn’t make you edgy or superior, they’re both extraordinarily talented

[@philippinelegendaries1909]

*When they were first searching for a Kim, they were looking for a girl with enormous charm, and lungs of steel; and then they found Lea Salonga from the archipelago of Philippines. I believe that Eva also got the star quality, and a very impressive vocalist too! 💕 Both are beautiful and talented asian chics!*

I actually like Eva's preformance better than Lea's. Lea is amazing of course, but Eva adds so much more depth and emotion from what you see in different videos.

[@joolaine]

People are so annoying. Obviously it's not meant literally. It's about what Eva represents and that she is special. Just like Lea was and is.

[@MBH226]

Absolutely special and very talented. I’ve seen both of their performances and Eva did amazingly touched my heart with her performance.

[@magandangtambay3925]

I think one of the characteristic thier looking is The one who have angelic voice with strong personality.

[@MBH226]

Really!!! Eva had to learn acting as well? I didn’t know this until now. Wow... i am quite impress she truly touched my heart with her performance in Miss Saigon when I went to see 4 years ago. Bravo 👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽

NORTHWEST SCHOOL OF THE ARTS OUR SCHOOL !!!!

[@forsythiarose3793]

I don’t think that Eva is another Lea, bc Eva is Eva and lea is lea, both extraordinary actresses and singers, but very different styles. No hate at all, they are both amazing women!!

[@MBH226]

Spot on ❤️

[@labellavita12]

Another Lea Salonga? i don't think so.. Lea is Lea.. period.. but Eva has her own style as well.

[@rodney1234ize]

yeah , but I really like her as kim.

[@ciociosan]

Ann B. I couldn't agree more.

[@jldlc7610]

I agree. I love you Eva, and good job! But Lea Salonga is Lea Salonga.

[@irishrojas2869]

Exactly what I thought!

[@jasond1429]

Eva is better imo
Don’t hate... I just like her a lot better
I enjoy hearing Eva more than Lea.
I think she fits the role greatly

[@MsTARA]

Lea is Lea but Eva is also good. I like her. She’s the nearest to Lea and Monique Wilson as Kim.

[@IceCeeTV]

Agree. Eva is the closest.

[@ashsexydivah]

Lea Salonga is the best...

[@littleskittles9589]

I felt like throwing my whole pc out the window when you said they found another lea salonga. News flash theyre both amazing but Lea will always be numba one in my book. She had that innocence and charm that was just so believable.

[@T.B.Y.S.]

“Another Lea Salonga” he said
Made me laugh lmao

[@daddy.lili.reinhartvideos4843]

Another Lea????? I'm sorry, I love Eva and Lea, but there will never be another Lea. Lea Salonga will always be the only Lea Salonga!

[@MBH226]

Of course nobody can replace anyone. Ever....we are all unique in our own ways. STOP COMPARING 😌
