I'm so excited by the talk of an anniversary concert at Royal Albert Hall in October. Anyone have any further news?

Apart from what has been said by some actors not much. I do hope it takes place (and its released on Blu-Ray like Les Mis)

If it does go a head a DVD/BluRay would be great. Also ... no Jonas Brother was Raoul! Please.

I read somewhere they were possibly getting in Ramin and Sierra for the concert. I hope that isn't true, but considering ALW's LND fetish, it probably will be. Would love to see John Owen-Jones get his due.

Not sure about Sierra, but Ramin is planned to be there. Actually he was the one who tweeted the news. Can't say I love the idea but well, he did played the Phantom in two shows so it would be fair.
And so did Sierra, and I hope she will be there (despite having moved back to NYC) 'cause I do love her.
Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman will obviously be there. All other performers will be selected according to God-knows-what criteria. 'cause, unlike Les Miserables, PotO had way more international productions so...
If they do a Concert with the quality of the 10th Anniversay Concert of Les Miserables, I'll be very pleased.

(I hope ALW did all the stupid casting regarding PotO in the movie...) It was Nick Jonas, right? I believe he was cast because he had previously played Gavroche on Broadway. I have a Playbill from the final performance. |
