Les Mis Fans which did you like better the 10 anniversay or 25th?

[Justice wanted]

I recently was able to see 25th special that was done and I have to say I was disappointed in general. I did like that Lea Solonga was in it and Alfie Boe's voice just brought me to tears. BUT NICK JONAS!? Really?

10th cast

25th cast


Some really bad choices IMHO. You had strong ranges and strong voices with the 10th and than 25th is like a weak water version.

THoughts. Am I being too hard?

1. The 10th has Philip Quast...that's all you need to know.

2. Yes his version of Stars is very chilling. Had me breathless.

and this one as well:

4. ditto

philip quast, michael ball, ruthie henshall, alun armstrong, lea salonga
each of them the quintessential performers of their roles.
ironically, though, i'm neither here nor there on colm wilkinson. i don't have a favorite val jean, but the only well known one i have seen is colm wilkinson. he's good, but not so good that i feel passionately about him in the role. the rest have been utterly forgettable second string touring val jeans.

3. My favorite Jan Val Jean is John Owen-Jones, the youngest actor to

play the character on the London West End. He also has the longest record playing the Phantom there too. He is on the 2010 Cast Recording and I saw him twice in London.
