We have more fun...

I've been reliably informed that blonde's have more fun. I can now confirm that they do. How am I in such a position to answer this question? Well, if you come to see the 25Th Anniversary production of Les Miserables, you will witness me sporting what can only be described as flaxen, flowing locks on my head. That's right, Enjolras is a Blondy!

Now I try to maintain a level of decorum in these blog posts but Holy Crap was last night fun! We opened the show last night at the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff to standing ovations and sobbing - just what we were aiming for. After the most gruelling rehearsal and teching process of my career, we finally got it together to show to the public. Tweaking is still required here and there but essentially the show is set and BOY does it work.

We have, new orchestrations that truly bring the score into the 21st century. A set and design that is vivid and at times breathtaking. A cast that work their proverbial bottoms off to get it up and shiny and I get to wear that waistcoat and carry a gun, what more could a boy ask for Christmas?

There are some behind the scenes pics and interviews at www.wmc.org.uk and I'll be posting some more production shots as I get them.

A merry Christmas to all and enjoy the new year.
