Guest hitoallusa Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I didn't recognize him at first. I later realized that he is one of Jonas brothers. I think he has a great potential. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYToP5ZfydE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OneFinger Posted March 26, 2011 Members Share Posted March 26, 2011 He's cute eye candy and excellent with the Jonas Brothers. But, I thought his performance in Les Miserables was horrible. His voice didn't seem to have to strength needed for the part. Much too weak and wimpy. I think his selection was an attempt to secure a more modern audience for the performance. I wouldn't pay money to see him do the role in a theater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hitoallusa Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I agree. I like Michael Ball as Marius much better. But it was nice to see Nick in this role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TownsendPLocke Posted March 26, 2011 Members Share Posted March 26, 2011 I thought he was the weakest of many weak performances.I did not enjoy this at all. There is an older concert performance that,while it is not so grand,has much better performers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Mis%C3%A9rables:_The_Dream_Cast_in_Concert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BeachBoy Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Not to sound too much like an old fogey, but what is happening with the theater these days?! I hate the stunt casting (that's really what it is), the movies-to-theater plays, and of course the clusterfuck that is Spiderman. What ever happened to a nice night at the theater? Why is it just going all to shit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I give the kid credit for doing it though and he did ok for not being a select musical theatre performer. I agree it was an attempt to draw in a younger audience for a show initially staged before they were born. Usually these roles go to the creme de la creme of performers so it no great shame to come in second in that comparison IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
