  We were lucky enough to see “Les Miserables” 25th anniversary concert at the 02 last night – and were totally blown away by the performance – most especially Alfie Boe – simply the best “Jean Val Jean” ever.

  Thanks so much

  I was happy to see the 25th years celebration at the O2 – it was a long way to travel to london but it was worth every mile. it was my birthday and the best birthday present I ever got
  and the best Jean Valjeans I’ve seen!! Thank you very much, especially for “Bring him home”. It was impossible to keep my eyes dry!

  Just watched Alfie Boe in the Royal Variety Performance . Absolutely shone and was by far the best Jean Valjean . I went to buy tickets immediately to see him play that role in full.Unfortunately he’s not at present ! Please play it for longer than 2weeks to give us a chance to see you ! Your FANTASTIC !!

  I was unfortunately not in time when booking tickets for the 25th Les Mis concert, however the first, I’m sure, to buy the DVD. Alfie’s voice is amazing and I have already booked my tickets to go and see him at the Queens next year. I can’t wait.

  We saw Les Mis for the first time at the Barbican Centre in September. We were blown away by the music, story and the production. Soon after we saw at the Nottingham Cornerhouse Film Centre, the transmission of the O2 concert and the applause in the cinema was extraordinary! We quickly booked seats at the Queens and watched it for the 3rd time within a month. All great performances but Alfie Boe is Jean Valjean to us. We hope to see him perform the role again in 2011

  Lea Salonga played the role of Fantine, not Eponine. She played the role of Eponine 15 years ago in the 10th Anniversary Concert though.
