Chorus in background
I'm not really into seeing them singing, especially with those annoying t-shirts.

shareBit harsh.
shareI just wish there was a way they could dress them in period clothing, to keep with the era.
shareHmmm... I hear what you're saying. It didn't bother me at all, but I can see how it could.
Still, a pretty small complaint about a pretty awesome show :)
You're right losty. Aside from that and Nick Jonas, it was a pretty awesome show.
shareYeah, poor 'Jonas-brother' as he's known at my place. (Didn't realise he had an actual name.)
Still, surely you can only blame the casting people, not Jonas himself. Considering his limitations, I thought he did well. It was just a truly bizarre choice to cast a pop singer in such a vocally and emotionally challenging (and well-loved) role.

"i.e....Daniel Radcliff..."

What about Daniel Radcliffe? I've only ever seen or heard about him being in the Harry Potter movies.

Radcliffe aspires to be the next Matthew Broderick of Broadway. He did Equus last year.
Right now he's starring in his first musical theater role: 'How To Succeed In Business Without Trying' ... appropriately named IMO.
Here's a clip of his current stage exploits:

Hmm, interesting. I would have never guessed that Broadway would be his post-Potter endeavor. Is he fairly decent on Broadway, or no?

Is that the one in the 25th anniversary cd? She fancies it up a bit too and it bugs the hell outta me.

In theory that would be wonderful but in practicality with that many people running around backstage it would be utter chaos, there are hundreds of people on that stage.. Also it would be expensive.
shareYou know what would have been cheaper? not including the chorus. I found it pointless and distracting. It was one element I was hoping they would change since the last "dream case" concert.
shareWow. I completely disagree. I enjoyed the chorus (and their t-shirts) immensely. They added a lot, especially to Master of the House.
shareI'm not really into seeing them singing, especially with those annoying t-shirts.I can understand your thoughts on the t-shirts, although they didn't bother me. They were a French flag! Their presence also served to remind any noobs that it's a concert performance (and that they still need to see the actual show!)
Very nicely worded. I agree!
shareThanks.
BTW, I heard that the chorus were only offered £1 (one pound) each for being there! I think there may have been some complaints to Equity about that, and they got a better deal in the end. Despite it being a "reunion party" for old Les Mis cast members, it was still a commercial venture for Sir Cameron - who doubtless did very well out of it - and their time and effort was surely worth more than one measly pound! What an insult to all those "old friends"!
Well, I suppose "someone" figured that they were really volunteering, but that for legal reasons they had to be paid something/?
