something to always do when watching Ramin: look at his eyes. that is why I love the recordings. in both Phantom and Les Miserables you can see the emotion he pours out not only in his voice, which makes him a good vocal actor, but the eyes make him an all around professional. It's why I fell in love with his performances before I ever saw his real face.
He is a treasure. His Phantom gave me a completely new view of the character, and indeed the entire show.
Swooning over Andy Mientus (Marius) to be honest. Came for Ramin, stayed for Andy.
I would love to have the cast recording and the whole show on dvd with this whole cast only! (Andy Mientus, Ramin Karamloo etc)
We saw this version in previews. Hugo describes Enjolras as majestic, powerful, born leader. This Enjolras is tall -- just right -- and had a grand voice -- again, just right. Great version...and I saw the Broadway 1986 and 2006 versions. Each superb.
He IS the barricade!
I've seen this show many times but this has to be by far the best production I've ever seen. The entire cast is phenomenal. Just give Ramin & Caissie their Tonys already!
1. Ramin deserved the tony award for best actor in a musical, not saying that NPH didn't deserve it.
2. I will never not be mad that Will wasn't nominated because i literally get goosebumps hearing/seeing his javert. Definetly up there with Earl Carpenter in my opinion.
Honestly the entire cast deserved a tony because i am obsessed with the 2014 revival of les mis and everyone in it.
Thank you for coming to my tedtalk 😶🌫️
Geez the guy @1:00 is perfect. He sings flawlessly.
I know right! His name is Ramin Karimloo and he has starred as the Phantom in the 25th anniversary production and the Phantom of the Opera sequel. You should go check him out :)
Ramin Karimloo is a whole other breed fr
Why didn't they release a cast recording? They clearly have all the footage
Oh yes, they do. But they will never release a full video recording of this quality (or any quality, really) to the public, because they're too afraid it would impact the ticket sales for the actual show... even though a recording like this would most likely sell millions of copies (add billions worldwide, if you add subtitles in different languages as well). And as for the audio recording, guess it's not different enough from the previous one. Back in the day, there used to be innovation in almost every production - different orchestra sizes, different arrangements, they tried out new things, but since the 25th anniversery, the sound quality remains almost exactly the same. Making a new audio recording just for the sake of having different people sing it was probably deemed counterproductive or pointless.
Branflakes1522 they also might have recorded select clips for promos.
@@TSF_Ukraine doesn't matter now, it's off broadway
@@Branflakes1522 Still goes on in London and shows no sign of ever ending there on West End.
@@Branflakes1522 It's still on tour.
Honestly whenever I hear Ramin sing anything, I tear up
Just returned to the UK from seeing this fantastic production four times last week and then the unforgettable experience of opening night. Broadway has a new star to toast, Ramin Karimloo, in his role as Jean Valjean. I urge everyone to go see it if they can.
Please PLEASE record this cast
My school's production of Les Mis got to see this while it was in previews last week! (We're in Connecticut, so it's a 90 minute bus ride for us, luckily.) I'm obsessed with the show, so I was too excited to put into words when the overture began. I think the original production that's still playing in London is much more powerful than this new and elaborate one. Still, I loved it beyond words, if not just for being able to say that I'd seen Les Misérables.
Great seeing these faces on youtube, I will never forget seeing the 6th row during spring break with my dad. Truly awesome.
I just see so many people hating on the voice of the actress that played Éponine. Everyone has their own voices , ways to sing and their own renditions to songs. I don’t think you should say she’s terrible just because you don’t like how she sounds
The "being him home part really gets to me
I think they did a much better job of "updating" Les Mis than they did Phantom.
just seeing this makes me remember when I saw it on Broadway. I've never gotten so many chills watching a show. I loved this
tbh I'm here for Andy Mientus (and was not disappointing he's aghhh) but everything is so beautiful and amazing just ahhhh
Totally worth the 13 hour drive to Chicago to see it❤
Ugh so good and beautiful!!
That was so amazing!! Bring it back😘😭
Can this cast please get to record a revival of Les Mis on Broadway? :)
By far one of my favorite musicals yet next to wicked, Hamilton and the Book of Mormon. This musical is so charming and powerful and big and beautiful. I’m very excited to see it on the 19th ofJune
I still remember the lighting from this show five years after seeing it in person.
Amazing voice
So many chills !!
This show is absolutely amazing saw it for my birthday amazinggggg on broadway
Just bought tickets to see the touring production this summer! So excited!!!!
Perf. I HAVE ONLY WATCHED THE MOVIE AND THESE GREAT PERFORMANCES ARE FREAKING ME OUT AND I WANNA SEE IT LIVE
I hope I can get to see the show because it looks amazing!
Looks amazing! I hope to see it one day.
OMG. I LOVED EVERYONE.
love the musical so much of les Miserables I love the songs
By far my fav fantine
i got to watch this last year, i hope next time i go to ny i get to watch it again!
ive heard there is a new Eponine :D
I love Les Miz
Ramin in AMAZINGGGGGG!
I wish they would have released footage like this of the recent Toronto revival!!
Javert and Jean are super hot in this production *_*Would have loved to see it! Looks great!
Sew this with my church was the most amazing version I've ever seen
May or may not have cried.
holy shit, so damn good!
I saw this today!!!!!!
This show is incredible! The men are fantastic and Ramin Karminloo is absolutely breathtaking as valjean. Although I do believe both fantine and Eponine were miscasted. The girl who plays eponine is very nasally and it's difficult to connect with her but overall the show was amazing
Ugh! I want to see it on Broadway so bad!
I wish there was a full show with the Ramin and Andy!
Is everyone gonna ignore how good enjolras' voice is?
Bueno 👍
I wish so much that I'd seen this performance. Why is there no video or cast recording of this company??
one of the greatest.... ive seen it 6 times is just that good but not the same as the original cast as scene in these scenes
that delayed 'bring him home'... love that choice.
Swing this in 2 weeks yay
Is there anywhere that has the full performance? I can't find it or a recording anywhere. I know they did the 25th and a lot of people are saying they can't just do it every time the cast changes, but a recording of this would be amazing.
Seriously. This is the best cast I've heard in years. I want this on a CD.
me too. I just wish there was a CD for it.
Perhaps their strategy is to withhold new recordings in order to encourage people to see the show in person.
There is sad news that the New York production of Les Miserable is closing this September 04 2016
oh no are you serious?
Yep i am serious go on Broadway.com and find Les Miserable and look through the news until you see "Bring Down The Barricade Les Miserable sets closing date or look it up on google.
Sorry but what does that mean? Does it mean that there's not going to be more of Les misérables on Broadway? or is it just temporal? I've never been in one of those and I will want to go in the future.
The company never really specified why they are closing the revival but i'm sure it would come back around 2019 or 2020
Ian C Thank God, I hope that I will be able to go in 4 or 5 years, thanks for the answer.
💟😭💟
Please make this available to buy? I live in the UK so I can't get to see Broadway productions live only through TH-cam, streaming or Blu Ray
But you live in the UK so you can see Ramin K because he will be in Sunset Blvd at Royal Albert Hall on 3Dec a one time performance
Why can't les mis sell a dvd of the show
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT CAISSIE'S FANTINE? SHE MADE ME SOB LIKE A BABY
I'm sorry but I can't see anyone but Andy as Marius. Not cause Andy is necessarily the best Marius, but just cause he's amazing in general :p
Hello, I am working on a documentary TV series and would like to license a clip from this video. Who can I contact? Thanks!
Who plays Marius, Cosette, and Eponine?
Did I miss something or was there not a Javert part in it?Javert is my favourite character and I think it's pretty hard to top Quast.I hope someone uploads the whole performance.
0:27 = Javert
Who plays Fantine?
The Eponine has a interesting voice.
caissie levy better get her tony acceptance speech ready!
hakunamattata437 oh yeah she was also Elsa in Broadway Frozen
Caissie is the best Fantine
who is fantine??? I want to listen her I dreamed a dream full version
+유지훈
I think it's Cassie Levy {Fantine}
And i don't think you can find a full version of her i dream a dream {you may find a video lingering youtube somewhere} other then that it's impossible because she left the role late 2014 early 2015 i don't know the exact date really you would have to look that up.
+Ian C thank you! you are very kind
You are very welcome
Oh did you hear the the sad news that the New York production of Les Miserable is closing this fall of this year
Why does the broadway trailer not have eponine belting on my own though??? Like trailers nowadays usually have eponines belting on my own while showing cosette and marius moments hahah
Well probably because to a lot of people, that eponine is not very good.
+Danielle Burger I didn't like her singing all that much :/ Thought her acting was fine.
I wish it was never taken off Broadway :(
But I saw a stand in Valjean; a slightly more stocky dude with a more powerful voice.
Enjolras was amazing. His voice...
Did you seriously just say 'blacks'
White people smh
nikki james is one of the best eponines. probably my favorite ever. if not, very close to first
How was Enjolras? He's always been the most interesting character to me, and this guy sounds pretty good.....
I'm pretty sure that this one was Kyle Scatliffe
annie10103
So was he any good?
i played him in our production of les miserables and it was really fun!
agenttheater5 Hi! So I saw a bootleg of this show (which I lost) and Kyle (Enjolras) was in it. And to be honest, he was decent. His singing voice was nice and his acting was too, but for me he doesn't capture the true Role of Enjolras.
Who is he, anyway? The one @1:00?
Ramin Karimloo
RAMIN IS FREAKING AMAZING!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HIM!! He's best known for playing the Phantom in the 25th anniversary of Phantom of the Opera but he's an amazing Valjean top and he's my favorite singer!
Holy crap, was that Ramin???!!!11 O_O
I feel like this production wiped their middle finger all over the female roles and only the female roles.
Nvm Marius sucks too
By far the worst Eponine. But possibly the best Javert and Valjean!
Is it because she's black?
It's just that she sounds like she forces the vibrato when that's supposed to come naturally when you sing correctly
+Crystal H, I think she's the worst Eponine, because her singing skills. She sing so bad. She's not so dark as the Enjolras actor, so it's not that visible, and it's doesn't affect the theater so much.
Is because she sings like a goat. When she says the city goes to bed. Her bed sounds like behhhhhhhhhh. A goat
dhwhre etwetewt I saw an absolutely unbelievable high school production and the Eponine there was just indescribable, she was sooooooo amazing, she sounds just like Lea salogna, she should've been cast as Eponine in this.
I'd rather see the west end cast
Me too
RAMIN KARIMLOO IS NOT REAL OMG
not the best casting choices......for a few of the characters.....
When did black people get in 18th century France 👀
Personally I believe this is the worst production I've seen :/
Awful: hammy and overdramatized; yelling, rather than singing. A shadow -- and, a weak one at that -- of the delicate, nuanced, and balanced performance I experienced when I first saw it on Broadway in 1991. These people really need to get some coaching from "opera people" who know how to perform without hamming it up and fill each note with meaning, instead of yelling. I'll keep my memories...and, my money.
Sounds like you'd prefer the London production.
I couldn't agree more! The new production was everything you described and 100x more raunchy, too. The original production was and always will be the gold standard for these songs. Cameron and his team loused this one up just for shock factor. And to add insult to injury, they took away the moving center portion of the stage which made so many scenes much more interesting. I don't know why they felt the need to change anything.
@@jefflopes5070 I must agree with you. Even though it's interesting to see the changes out of pure curiosity, the original Broadway production was superior in every regard.
The whole major downfall happened with the 25th anniversary, I think, when they went on and changed everything starting from costumes and culminating with blocking and orchestrations. For the worse.
I still remember how they've changed Javert's uniforms around, making him wear his intro uniform in the show and restricting his iconic jacket to the prologue only. Why would they do something like that? Still boggles my mind. At least they've given it back to him in this production. Too bad the orchestrations remained the same 25th anniversary ones.
The original production was nuanced, yet grand at the same time. It had no need for flashy effects, for shouting and being over the top. I loved how certain scenes took place pretty much in complete darkness with little to no backdrops. The actors carried the scenes with their performances, and were responsible for making you feel and understand the situation.
The music was gritty, dark and powerful. Take Javert's theme (arrest / runaway cart) for example. It used to sound powerful, heavy, commanding. Combined with his slow, deliberate entrance out of the shadows, it created an atmosphere of total control and dominance on his part.
In the new productions, he usually runs out as if he's been chasing something hecticly before being alerted, barely catches his breath and goes crazy with the prostitutes, throwing them around while the score is playing away staying surprisingly light and very, very fast (that's the prime feature of the new orchestrations - gotta go fast, lest it might become less dramatic). Javert has to be a collected and cold individual, an experienced officer who commands respect and instills fear just by looking at you, not an erratic man jumping around shouting at people.
By the way, if anyone wants to see a cool Javert, check out Hartwig Rudolz from the German Les Miserables production. He was a part of the official Broadway replica production in Duisburg, and he plays the part perfectly. Despite the fact that it's in German, if you know the show, it's very enjoyable to watch.
The new productions just dont feel right. Anyhow, I'm ranting and going to stop now. Have a great day everyone!
