……
Five stars, five stars, five stars. The overwhelming praise and recommendations are dazzling, but what about those cunning and mean comments? What about those critical and dismissive critics? What about those artists who are enjoying themselves and talking to themselves? It seems like overnight, everything has disappeared.
Even if Emma Fitting paid for all the media, there seems to be no reasonable explanation for this situation. The only normal inference is that this play really conquered the critics and the audience, so , everyone was blown away.
In fact, they are not just theater critics. After the opening night, the 350 audience members who watched the premiere couldn’t wait to share their views and opinions on social networks with enthusiasm, impassionedness, and incoherence. , this seems to have become a common phenomenon.
“So exciting, so exciting! Ahhhh, I'm going crazy! How can it be so wonderful! I really want to watch it again! Six hours is really too short, why not sixty hours?！”
“yeah! Jesus! base! Governor! It looks so good that I want to curse! Even for viewers who have no knowledge of the original work, and even for viewers who have no interest in dramas, this will not affect the viewing experience at all. I won’t go into details about the ups and downs and brilliance of the story, but! How could the young master be so good-looking! Even if he is unshaven and wearing a sack, he looks so good! I'm dying！”
“Shocking, this is truly shocking! Only after watching this performance in the theater with my own eyes did I understand what performance is. The kind of shock hit my face and exploded directly in the depths of my pupils. After being shocked to the extreme, I could not react at all and could only I sat there stupidly. I cried so much that I couldn't stop crying. But at the end, I forgot that I existed. God, I was already incoherent.！”
“After applauding for fifteen minutes, my hands have lost all feeling, but this still cannot express my endless admiration and love. Such a work deserves to be famous throughout the ages, right?？”
“Oh my god, my god, my god, the young master is so beautiful, oooh, oh, oh, oh, I want to give birth to a monkey for him.”
“This is the first time I really like an actor after Daniel Day-Lewis. The aura and texture of Renly Hall are really amazing. His performance is simply indescribable, I just think his Her eyes are filled with stars and sea. Just one look can tell all the stories. I really admire you.！”
“If anyone still doubts the young master's Oscar statuette, please go to London's West End to watch 'Les Misérables' in person? The young master will tell you in minutes what absolute strength is. Ahhhh, I really want to watch it again.！”
“Go buy your tickets! This is my only idea, otherwise, you will regret it！”
……
From Facebook to Twitter, to the photo wall, and even the Yahoo community, the discussion spread vigorously. Only 350 viewers were able to enter the theater to watch the premiere at the first time, but the discussion was huge. Dangdi has reached its peak, and in just twenty-four hours, the number of discussions on related keywords has exceeded 5 million..
For Hollywood commercial movies, such discussion is not worth mentioning, maybe just a fraction; but for London's West End or Broadway plays, such discussion is far off the charts, and the discussion of other plays is even Maybe it won't even break through 500,000.
Outside the theater audience, the audience waiting outside the theater waited for eight and a half hours and still could not buy a ticket for the opening night, but they were happy with it. For the first time, they also started online Published his own experience——
Celebrities gathered at the entrance of the theater that day, reporters scrambled for the first place, the feedback from the audience was incredible, and the West End of London was sensational that day..
The fragments reflected from the side outline the grand occasion and excitement of the day; further confirming what the audience and theater critics said: this play is truly a hit! Not only because of Renly, the quality of the entire play has also received praise; but just because of Renly, he deserves to become the absolute focus.
In addition to Renly, the performances of other actors have also been mentioned, especially Tom Holland. This young actor once made a name for himself with the stage version of "Out of My World". This time He played the role of Enjolras and once again shined on the stage; the same was true for other actors. Those unknown young actors made headlines in major newspapers and major forums overnight and attracted much attention..
On the opening night of London's West End, I haven't seen such prosperity in many years. A play actually became the cradle of star-making. In a trance, it seemed that I had returned to London a century ago..
From the media to the audience, everyone was immersed in the excitement and excitement. As the most authoritative and professional magazine in the British entertainment industry, "Empire" did not miss the party and wrote an article immediately, Commented on the play.
“John Corder broke the shackles of nearly thirty years of classics and boldly and bravely presented the picture of the era described by Victor Hugo. He succeeded; the young crew, with an average age of less than 23 years old, is comparable to youth version of 'Hamlet' challenge, they succeeded.
Also, Renly Hall plays Jean Valjean. No fancy words can describe the shock brought by this young actor, only admiration and admiration. Will he go down in history and become famous in history? Maybe; then, is he good enough to become a leading figure among Generation Y actors? Yes.”
In the article, Ned Mullan published all the details of the backstage interview in detail, presenting the faces of every actor on the crew to the audience. Of course, there is also the most important one, Renly, who is undoubtedly the first Among the many reports, this is the most comprehensive and profound one, truly showing the world behind the scenes of "Les Misérables".
At the end of the four-page feature, Ned wrote:：
“After winning the Berlin Film Festival and the Oscar, everyone is curious about Hall's next move, and this is his answer. This young man who is chasing his acting dream is using his strength, his talent and his hard work to , write your own legend.
Returning to the play, what impressed me most was the opening. In the ingenious and unique opening performance, Hall truly showed his solid acting skills and strong acting appeal, and every move was full of emotion. Power and emotion, even the voice is magical.
God, welcome to the world of Renly Hall.”
“The report in "Empire" magazine is undoubtedly a summary, bringing together all the praises, all the discussions and all the topics, truly showing the rave reviews after the performance of "Les Misérables"; at the same time, Ned also It received a full five-star score and expressed the magazine’s position..
In fact, after the opening night, a total of fourteen theater critics published comments in different media - just fourteen, which is not enough for a movie; but for a drama, But it was a frenzy of discussion. Among these fourteen comments, the lowest score was four stars, and only one.
From the Daily Mail, “Will this production top the Queen’s Theater version? I’m skeptical; but there’s no doubt that John Coad and Renly Hall have created a fantastic production, watch it The show truly becomes a treat, if the audience doesn't mind that six hours is too long.”
Although there is some joking and ridicule, the four-star review still shows that the "Daily Mail" praises it, but it is not as enthusiastic as other drama critics..
After the opening night, when people opened newspapers, magazines, computers, and even televisions, they had the illusion that there were not as many discussion topics about "Les Misérables" as they imagined, but as long as it was involved, the voices of praise would be heard. The catharsis poured out overwhelmingly, with nowhere to escape; and it was also a breakthrough praise..
“no one should miss out！”
This was the deepest impression in people's minds. At this moment, people recalled that a few days ago, the queue for tickets at the Almeida Theater was so long that it even made the front page of the news; at that time, many people I think these viewers have gone crazy, just for a "Renly Hall", they are so crazy, and the fan effect is fully utilized..
But now, people are dumbfounded - are they half a beat too slow? Missed the best opportunity? Is it too late to go to the Almeida Theater and buy tickets?？
The good news is that the Almeida Theater immediately announced that the tickets for the first week have been sold out, but the sales channels for subsequent tickets have not yet opened. Three days later, that is, on Monday, they will officially start the pre-sale of all tickets..
Now, it's going to explode.
