Description

Crying at all is not allowed, not in our podcast on a cloud. Dream the dream with the Broadway Babies as they take on another MEGA musical/MEGA concert: the French-born tear jerker, Les Misérables! Prepare yourself for self-indulgent musical bliss in the form of Lea Salonga, Judy Kuhn, Michael Ball, and the giant chorus screaming in mom jeans and concert T's in the background. Alex and Daisha will chat about the 10th anniversary “Dream Cast” concert version and the pros and cons of a huge musical being pared down into a concert version.    Podcast cover art: David Taylor Twitter: @bwaybabies  Facebook: Facebook.com/broadwaybabiespodcast   Cast recording: Amazon | iTunes Video recording: Amazon   Songs "Prologue: Work Song" (Performed by Colm Wilkinson, Philip Quast and Ensemble) "Castle on a Cloud" (by Hannah Chick) "On my Own" (by Lea Salonga) "Little Fall of Rain" (by Lea Salonga and Michael Ball) "Bring Him Home" (by Colm Wilkinson) "One Day More" (by Colm Wilkinson, Michael Ball, Judy Kuhn, Lea Salonga, etc. and Ensemble) Music by Claude-Michel Schönberg and original lyrics by Alain Boublil, English version by Herbert Kretzmer Distributed by Sony Pictures and BBC Video   Show Notes The iconic medley of Les Mis' 1987 Tonys performance  A pretty thorough video about Les Mis by former Nostalgia Chick Lindsey Ellis (stop after the weird song thing starts).
