“My favourite version of Les Miz yet – despite it being only semi-staged. Most of the cast are spot on, though a couple of the male bit-parts could do with toning down the melodrama. I think this version is more frenetically paced than usual, giving it a great energy, but there are points where it could afford to breathe more.nBoeu0026#39;s u0026quot;Bring Him Homeu0026quot; is perfect and devastating. Fletcher is stunning. u0026quot;Turningu0026quot; is still useless. Women and gays will probably enjoy Enjolras in particular.nIu0026#39;ll take the Albert Hall version of Phantom, and this version of Les Miz. If I owned the Hooper/Jackman version or the 25th anniversary version, theyu0026#39;d be straight in the bin. The charity bag. 8/10”
