You were 13 and it was your first time to see it - on your birthday, so you were excited. A nice memory for you, but hardly an objective opinion.

Opinions, by their very definition, cannot be objective. Otherwise, they are facts. Your opinion can be formed from objective facts but, ultimately, they're two different things.

*shrug*

I've heard other casts since then and I still consider Colm Wilkinson and Rebecca Caine to be the best (in my opinion) voices when it comes to PoTO.

This is of course, a personal opinion, and I'm not going to say to someone else who prefers another cast that they're wrong...

Also, considering Phantom had a ten year run at the Pantages, I would think it wasn't a flop...

Here's to hoping no one's stupid enough to argue about Colm Wilkinson's voice with you....

(Anonymous) 2012-12-31 06:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Theater Snob Person's head would probably explode, since Colm Wilkinson was in the original London/Broadway cast of Les Mis...

I also really enjoyed seeing him in the part of the Bishop in the movie.

Because when describing viewing experience, an objective measuring standard is really what we're after, amirite?

(Anonymous) 2012-12-31 12:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Because "it's only possible to see a good production in NYC or London" is totally objective.

Here's an objective opinion, asshole: I've seen Les Mis on Broadway, in the West End, 3rd national tour, 25th anniversary tours on both sides of the pond, and I've seen them all multiple times. And the Québec production was amazeballs. They could package that shit up and put it on tour and I'd choose it over the West End production any day of the week, at least until the day the London casting directors finally pull their thumbs out of their asses and learn to recognize talent when they see it. Which, as far-off and improbable as that day might be, is probably still sooner than the day you realize the theatre world is not divided into Broadway, the West End, and middle-school productions of Bye Bye Birdie.

(Also shoutout to Signature Theatre's fantastic gothed-out industrial-dystopia reimagining of Les Mis, because DAMN.)
