I saw this with Michael Cahill and Glyn Kerslake as Martin and Arnaud and thought it was fantastic. I coudln't understand why this didn't take off either as there is some lovely music in it and the staging was awesome with that HUGE movible set.

@hobbily My mom and pa' did the same, they bought the cd, it's wonderful. This version is too ''new''

@muffyduffy Glad you saw the pre-Broadway trials. I never did, although I've seen a couple videos of it and also own the CD. I did see, twice, the original London production which I just ADORED. I believe your would have loved it too. When comparing both CD's it is clear they changes the lyrics tremendously which, in my opinion, makes the latter one kind of hard to follow the story line. In any case, enjoy the FEW videos that exist of the original London cast. CHEERS !

I saw it in a "pre Broadway" run at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC about ten years ago. I absolutely loved it, but it looks like it pretty much died after that. It's a shame, because it had some gorgeous songs.

French composers Boublil and Schonberg (the guys who did the famous musical version of Les Miserables). Martin Guerre was a French peasant in the 16th century who found himself at the center of a very bizarre story that eventually led in the execution of a man.

I didn't know this existed until a few weeks ago...we watched the "Martin Guerre" bit in my film class...shame they never brought it to America. I think it's kind of catchy.
I saw the original west end production directed i think by declen donnelan. It was a brilliant production, the music was fantastic. I could never understand why this musical never really caught the imagination of the public
