The West End's longest running musical is still playing at the Queen's Theatre. How often did you hear the people cast sing?

Do we know if Craig Mather is leaving in June or if he has a full year contract? He was my first Marius, I'd love to see him again in the role!

Understudy Central tonight - we had Adam Bayjou on as Valjean, Adam Pearce as Javert, Jessamy Stoddart as Fantine, Charlotte Kennedy as Cosette and Luke McCall as Enjolras. All were brilliant, you wouldn't guess they weren't the leads if you didn't know. Show was in great shape, felt as fresh as ever and a well-deserved standing ovation. Busy but not sold out, a couple of empty seats dotted here and there about the stalls.

I heard the people sing at the Barbican a couple of times, the Palace too many times to remember, on Broadway, in Stockholm, in Amsterdam, in Vienna, in Paris, in Madrid, in Manchester, at the Queens numerous times, in concert at the Royal Albert Hall to celebrate ten years, in Bristol, back to the Barbican, and at the O2 to celebtrate its 25th!

Countless times in London, Manchester and Edinburgh. Best leads were Valjean David Fawcett (u/s at Manchester), Graham Bickley as Marius, Phillip Quast as Javert, Linzi Hatley as Eponine, Rebecca Storm as Fantine.

I still haven't seen the show outside the US (not for lack of trying), but have seen the two most recent Broadway productions, two US tours in several cities, and a couple of school editions. Multiple times each (except the latter).

I'll be there at Carrie's and Rob's last show. I expect it to be very scary and mental. Last years cast change was already mental with crying, hyperventilating girls all around. I expect this with a bunch of hopefuls and half term to be even worse, haha!
I'm actually going to live stream it on snap chat if everyone is interested haha!

The fact that people are leaving or that new people are coming in? Do they want people to stay in the show for the rest of their lives? I find reports of this sort of behaviour fascinating but at the same time quite bizarre. |

It will be draaaaaaaaaaaama, big time - because Carrie tweeted she will not have much time at SD on saturday, because she wants to go to say goodbye to the rest of the cast  |

I personally think that she should just avoid the stage door on Saturday evening and go out a different entrance. Because there is no way she is gonna get out of that alleyway easily.
She should go out after the matinee for a little bit then go back in, then her followers are pleased.
