Was this series, The Sound of Musicals ever released on video of any kind? How many episodes were there? I wisht there were more musical theatre shows like this in the US as well. So well done, even if some of the singers were not at the same caliber as Ruthie Henshall or John Barrowman.
I think Get Happy was a better version than Garland's, but the melody shouldnt have been altered and ruthie's voice should have been more strong and more vibrato and it would have been just perfect :)
I love the last bit with Try to Remember a Kind of September. I like the show in general, I've been trying to find it in rental stores on DVD or wherever but no such luck.
Jon Lee (Originally from S Club 7 and has played parts in West End, most noteably 'Les Mis') and Carrie and David Grant (Married sining coaches, famous from TV show 'Fame Acadamy'.) =]] x
i can't believe i missed this when it was on tv. why hasn't it been released on DVD? i'd buy it like a shot, i love this kind of stuff. i don't like carrie though, not only is her voice not that good but her mannerisms get on my nerves - not a fan!
it was on tv the year before HOW DO YOU SOLVE A PROBLEM LIKE MARIA to try and educate our stupid country abput about musicals but no one except hardcore musical heads watched it so they gev up and did a kind of musicals x factor (sort of)
can i ask wots tha song and musical that goodbye song is from and also that john barrowman song coz that song is pia lush lyk. i luv this medoley wudnt mind singin it mesel lol
yeah it's him :] recognised him straight away! i must be rather sad to remember everyone from S Club 7, but oh well, I loved them! Not as much as I loved this show! I wish there was another series :(
I was never into Sclub7 so I didn't recognize Jon, but he's done well to make the change to musical theatre. He doesn't look out of place at all and is only inferior to John and Ruthie in terms of watching them perform. So kudos to Jon, good work.
john barrowman is soooo fit!! is ruthie pregnant???? or is it just her dress???? anyway if she is my congrats to her and carrie for carryin on and doin the show while pregnant - that takes skill lol :) ruthie is great!!! :)
i would love this show to come back, missed it first time. agree about kristin and idina, also connie from maria, lee from joseph, the boys from billy elliot, and basically every cast of each musical. that would be such a great show! i think i need to pitch that idea to someone now...
Wow, they look totally exhilarated at the end! I reeeeeeeeeeeeeaaally hope this programme comes back, as it was the perfect evening entertainment for me: I have loved musicals since I was titchy and I am in love with John Barrowman! There's no business like show business, like no business I knooow....
i think they should do another sereis of this with ruthie and barrowman idina kiristen cheno jason donovan maria freidman argh that would be well good
Ahhhh Jon (the 1 from S Club) is truely AWFUL in Les Mis... his voice is soooo winey! It drove me insane, completely ruined the Les Mis experience for me!
"Try to remember" is such a beautiful song, but I don't know the musical it's from. Is John Barrowman actually still doing musicals or is he just an actor now? I'd love seeing him in a stage show.
It's from The Fantasticks if I remember correctly.
And at the moment John is just doing TV work, although he did a Pantomime over the christmas period, and he has expressed a wish to go back to the stage :)
Ruthie is absolutely fantastic. I wish I was half as talented as she is.
