I watched Les Miserables live! With a friend who knew nothing about it outside of the song One Day More
they didn’t expect so much death
referred to Les Amis as “the twinks”
thought Javert was hot and shipped him with Jean Valjean
referred to Cosette as Casenoisette and Casoupee
shipped Enjoltaire (they called them the drunk one and human Shrek, they thought the actor plying Enjolras looked like human Shrek)
also in this production when Thenardier sings “this one’s a queer, but what can you do,” instead he said “this one’s a queer, think I’ll try it to,” and swept a guy into a dip. They called this iconic, they are correct.
Enjolras and Grantaire were perfect. The actor of Grantaire understood the assignment. So many yearning looks and his desperation to stop enjolras right before he dies. Grantaire last one alive then climbs the barricade finally and then is shot dead.
also he was close with Gavroche which made it really hurt when he died.
also the Javert bridge fall was done in such a freaking cool way it’s hard to explain.
I know some of this is just part of the touring production, but it’s my first time seeing the show live since I was six.
Also Jean Valjean had the voice of an angel, but with his grey hair from a distance he looked like Connor Roy
