My parents saw Gary Beach as Thenardier in the Second National Tour back in 1987. I wonder if his performance was anything like his revival performance. If it was I incredibly jealous.
@ jnetusil - I agree that it doesn't really belong with the rest, but every good musical, especially the tragedies, need a little comic relief for the audience. This is Les Mis's version of Office Krupke.
My school did Les Mis this year ( they just finished the shows on 11/6/2010 or 6/11/2010 if you are American) and I
found my school's performance better than the ones I've seen on YouTube. The ones done by Broadway are good but I guess it's just different live and when it's performed by teenagers. They're much louder! :)
@thepurpleroom1 jesus... so many fucking delusional people. I bet whoever played Valjean was much better than Colm Wilkinson and John Owen Jones combined because he was so loud!
Preble Players Theater is currently doing this musical in Green Bay. Even though they are a high school group I think their production was 10 times better than the Broadway versions I have seen here!

Who plays Madame? I can't stand the way she portrays Mde Thenardier. It's too whiny and high pitch. Jenny Galloway FTW!!!!

Thank you for posting the "original" of this song which for the last poster it's supposed to be "cutesy"

I saw him in Les Mis as well...I agree, he's the best Thenardier there is! Fantastic performer, and he's just so funny!
He really does a stunning job in this role.

Green Bay! I'm from Kaukauna, and we did this 3 years ago during my freshman year, my favorite show we did. I'm a senior now, and we're doing Grease!

XD I always thought that noise at the beginning sounded like a fart.
That moment and every one after it were absolutely hilarious. AWESOME job Gary Beach.
