Do you know who is playing James mum I’m playing Christine in the phantom of the opera concert at my new house on Saturday 16 of July fist of uk doing a musical theatre concert in the summer
My little heart just about broke when he left the shoes behind..😥 though i have to say Layton is FABULOUS as jamie as well. Both john and layton fit the role so well and bring their own to it🙌. I ❤ both of them sm.
I will never forget that night. It was one of the most amazing nights of my life... ever. The crowd was electric. I genuinely didn't think the ovation at the start was ever going to end. Then the 'year 11 be quiet' line felt so much like it was aimed at us. I was an absolute emotional wreck by the end of the evening!
I was so lucky to have been at this very special show on this night. One of the best nights ever, sitting right near the real Jamie and his mum too. Thank you to all the cast for a fabulous show, never seen anything quite as emotional.
I've been greatful to have met Layton twice, he isn't the friendliest of people but his very passionate into his work and always wants to do well. His a very good Dancer and slays the stage haha.
Thanks for sharing, I couldn’t get tickets for the last night so went the night before. It was as amazing as the first time I saw it. Good luck to the new cast, you’ve big shoes to fill.
Thank you so much for posting this! I couldn’t get tickets for last night but saw the matinee yesterday instead. It was so emotional. The audience wouldn’t stop cheering at the end no matter how much he shushed them. In the end he told us he was starving and we eventually let him go. 😢😍😍😍
really fucking irritating when people boo the actors because of the characters they play. i know its not serious but shit like that must have even a small impact on their view of the performance.
😭😭😭 Such a fantastic show - I'm sure it will continue to be brilliant with the new cast but John McCrea was an absolute star as Jamie. Big things ahead for him no doubt 💕💕💕
Thank You, Thank You. Thank You!! This was fabulous (and sad)!! I Visited London from NYC last June and saw Jamie. I loved it and John and the whole cast were sensational. So- - - I went back a couple nights later. I adore this show. Rumor has it it may be coming to Broadway but it won't be the same as London. Not without John. I love Layton Williams from "Beautiful People" and I look forward to seeing him as Jamie in London this June. I know he'll be fantastic in the role. Does anyone know if John McCrea is playing Jamie in the movie??
I didn’t get to see John life but I know he was amazing I didn’t see Layton either but I know he was amazing and hopeful next month when I go see Noah he will be just as amazing as John and Layton but John will always be the best Jamie in my heart 💓
Donna Jones It’s quite unusual to do longer than a year for most West End contracts. If you make it through two contracts you’re VERY lucky. Kinky Boots had an almost complete cast overhaul by the 3rd year. Most producers will do this to keep a fresh show.
You get a contract and then before the contract is done sometimes they can choose to stay on or not, but Actors normally don't cause they eventually have to move on as 6 nights a week of doing the same show can get very boring.
the show would have had to finish at a certain point so the theatre could be vacated, if the entire cast had spoken they literally would have run out of time, i agree it would have been nice but at the end of the day it was still a performance on the west end - gotta stay professional
