Michael Ball is my all-time favorite voice. Him being a gorgeous, amazingly charming, witty, kind human is just a bonus! 💕
I m an Aussie LesMiz tragic so I had to go to the Sydney "Do you hear the people sing" concert...it was the true meaning of Awesome, but to hear Empty Chairs at Empty Tables sung by the original Marius was so moving, I cried my eyes out!!
I was so lucky to see him in the original Aspects of Love. He's incredible.
I would love to just give him the biggest hug ever, and never let him go. He's my hero. Love him to death.

Me too!
I liked the very last line, spoken as if from another actor who Michael describes as camp as Christmas, while they were doing the barricades scene: “This is all very well, but I’m more of a Hello Dolly person”!

OMG, these are the stories, behind the actual story of a production, that make each show truly unique and can only be voiced by the performers themselves. Just tripped over this KZread and I'm so glad I found it. Michael is just cracking up at the end and it just gives me the giggles. 🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣😂😂
This is a great video, as he said he told this story a number of times before! One of my fav is when he said it on-The "100 greatest musicals" which was on Channel 4 and obviously been repeated since!
Is the full interview somewhere? 😊
