Les Misérables | Dressing Room Confessions
Ойын-сауық
Now the longest-running musical in the West End, Cameron Mackintosh's tale of revolution and romance in nineteenth-century France didn't always look like it had legs. Critics gave the show a kicking when it arrived in London in 1985, but Les Mis was a hit with audiences regardless. It's evolved a bit since then, naturally, with a recent orchestral overhaul bringing the sound of the show screaming into the twenty-first century. It's tweaks like this that keep the the show's legion of fans hooked, and likely played a part in its scooping of the Audience Award at the Oliviers in 2012.

I love how Carrie is so excited throughout the whole video, running around and smiling all the time, you can tell she really loves her job and it made me feel proud of her for achieving her dream 😌

It must have taken Carrie ages to memorise all those facts about les mis! but it is an amazing show and it is no wonder it has been this successful
Ironic that the clip of Eponine singing isn't actually Carrie...

I believe its the 2009/2010 cast as that is Nancy Sullivan... :D
Welcome to Behind the Scenes with Carrie Hope Fletcher, where she shows off her awesome math skills and makes me feel like an nitwit 👍
I SAW HER PLAY EPONIE, SHE HAS A FANTASTC VOICE!!!!!!!!!
I wish they'd played a clip of Carrie singing, I really want to see this show.

"The wondrous stage of Les Mis" is right. It looks so dull, grey, and small in this video under general house flood lighting. But I warn all of you to brace yourselves for how stunningly all of this is transformed via the magic of theatre and the ingenious creatives who brought all to life in 1985 and continues to thrill to this day The current Broadway production ruined it all. Feel lucky to be one of the many who have seen the original production. The current London production at the Queens is the very last and the best of the wonderful, spectacular original productions. I've seen it 30 times and am itching to fly to London to see it at least one more time.

the current broadway production is actually a retooling they did for the 25th anniversary with new sets and backgrounds. The music was re-arranged as well to have a smaller orchestra

Seen both the original production on Broadway and new tour in 2013 and agree the new tour even though stunning has nothing on the original iconic staging. It’s massive and was thrilled by the revolve
I had no idea that the supporting cast is also part of the group scenes when their character isn't on. I know it's practical, but it seems like a lot of work! :)
She's so adorable.
Couldn't have picked a better person to show the bts! Love Carrie Hope Fletcher.
I’m so happy for her as she can finally wear fantines dress
God I adore this woman. She could really become one of those theatre-y people who does tv presenting as well (i.e. Michael Ball etc), KZread has obviously made her completely comfortable with cameras
Carrie was my Eponine when I saw Les Mis in London last summer. She was a fantastic Eponine. I still cannot believe I was in this theatre living a dream. Seeing the show in the West End was the first time I saw the stage show professionally. It is perfectly understandable why the show is as successful as it is

I saw it on July 30th that summer. It was not just Carrie I was impressed with. It was the entire cast that I was impressed with especially when I saw a understudy as Valjean. Les Mis is as successful as it is because it is Les Mis. The whole story, powerful emotional nature of the songs, and those just incredible characters
i love how passionate she is about it. this is how i feel about Les Mis

Oh wow, Carrie, you are literally living my dream! You make a fantastic Eponine and I hope that I can see you again before the cast change:') Keep up the spectacular work! (And well done of learning all those numbers!;))
AHhh I can't wait to go and see it. I even saw the exact seat i'm sitting in.
I love these Les Mis statistics!
I just saw Carrie as Fantine. she's amazing LOVE her
0:01 I've Seen Boublil And Schonberg And Sir Cameron Mackintosh's Les Miserables The Original West End Smash Hit Musical At London's Queen's Theatre In London's West End Back In February 2018 Just Before Tokyo Koyto And Osaka Japan And Thomas Land And Universal Studios Japan And Tokyo Disneyland Resort Holiday Megatrip On March/April 2018 And It Was Huge Big Super Awesome Longest Running West End Musical Ever Made. Thanks Mate. X
This show is impeccable
I could listen to Carrie telling random facts about Les Mis all day :)
I came to watch and had a backstage tour last week with school and it was absolutely brilliant !!
Damn the girl knows her math.
I love this thank you for doing this. Honestly, I'm out of words with how grateful I am.
Thank you for the exciting tour Ms. Carrie :-)
I saw Les Mis on the 21st of January 2014 an it's the best show I have ever seen! I love it so much xx
I just saw the show it was absolutely amazing, I just want to see it again and again, totally worth every penny, Carrie was fantastic!
Oh my god this video was uploaded like the day before I watched Les Mis there. It was soooo amazing!!
This musical is AMAZING!! I definitely recommend seeing it
I saw it last night so watching this video now is so so cool! Carrie and the entire cast were just incredible, I am definitely a huge Les Mis fan now :D
I saw it two days ago and it was stunning! I WAS SO IMPRESSED I JUST CANNOT. And Carrie, and Tam and Rob, I met them!
I saw thw show last week and it was one of the most amazing things I have ever had the pleasure of witnessing, and Carrie did an absolutely fantastic job as Eponine :D
I hope les mis and phantom will both live to see 45 years. Imagine how grand that anniversary special will be!!
I went to see Les Mis on February 3rd for my 18th Birthday and it was phenomenal... To the point where I am going back to see it again in May....I can't wait! x
I saw the show on Tuesday omg I can't believe how talented every single person were, was blown away with Carrie as Eponine and all the amazing cast! 😱
Big Thank you!!
I love Carrie so much! I was very blessed this Christmas to receive a signed photo of her :)
Happy that she will get to don the Fantine dress when she goes back. Sad that the revolve will not be there anymore.
That is a lot of numbers to remember in a lot of sentences! Yeh, I know , practice, practice practice. I can do that with lines. But with the numbers she had to remember that's like how many numbers there is in pi... yes impossible. But, I just... that's just.. a lot of numbers!
well done carrie! great tour.:) xxx
I saw this last year, in the end of summer I loved the show and movie, I have even sang the songs.
I love how excited she is and she's always so wonderful when you meet her. Such a sweetheart. Still miss Danielle Hope as Eponine though.
I really want to see it again. January 11th I saw it and it was phenomenal, you could easily see why it's the longest running in the West End.
I'm coming to see it next Wednesday!
I cannot believe I saw Les Mis in the West End during July 30, 2015. I had an understudy as Jean Valjean (Adam Bayjou). As far as Eponine goes, Carrie was my Eponine. I have no words to describe what that entire experience. Just by seeing by the theatre, buying souvenirs, and getting in my seats (which was 9 rows back from the stage) was so surreal that my dream was happening. Just by hearing the first note, I knew it was going to be more than expected. The cast, the staging and the orchestra was more than expected.
Thanks Carrie
Well done Carrie!!
im gonna cry im going through some older carrie videos and gosh i love her so much
I'm going to see his today I'm so excited
0:01 Carrie Hope Fletcher Also Played The Role Of Cinderella From Andrew Lloyd Webber's Cinderella At London's Wonderful Gillian Lynne Theatre Back In 2021. Awesome. Thanks A Lot Mate. X❤😂😅😂😅😂😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅
It's so exciting cos I just saw you perform- how are you so amazing, and now I know what it's like backstage! Week! How do you cope with all the excitement

The NY production of Phantom is the longest running show on Broadway. Les Miz is the longest running show in London's West End history with Phantom so far is the 2nd longest running show in West End History.
