April 28, 200916 yr Gareth did'nt perform yesterday 27th due to illness, hope he did not get food poisening, lol (joke) We dont know whats wrong with him (hope its not too bad), and if he is better today. Might have been one of his really bad migraines. We heard a rumour about Gareth maybe getting a part in Les Mis, but one cant take this things seriously, there are lots of rumours going around. We just have to wait and see if we get some announcement in May or so. Edited April 28, 200916 yr by hasso
May 6, 200916 yr Just to let all the Gareth fans know if they don't know already that Gareth is in the May issue of the Somerfield Magazine.
May 6, 200916 yr There's a new Marius starting so Gareth hasn't got the part this cast change for 'Les Mis'. I was wondering if he would get the part next time a new performer does Marius. I think his voice is perfect for it.
May 6, 200916 yr Just to let all the Gareth fans know if they don't know already that Gareth is in the May issue of the Somerfield Magazine. That's very kind of you. Will go and look it out.
June 30, 200915 yr 25th Anniversary Tour with Les Mis stalwarts John Owen Jones and Earl Carpenter no less. It'll be perfect for Gareth - the tour spends a long time at about 6 venues including one in Paris. His child is young enough for Suzanne and the baby to accompany him on the tour if they want to. Gareth is also one of the performers at a major MT concert in October.
June 30, 200915 yr Since Cinderella, I've been absolutely certain his voice would be perfect for the part of Marius. Unfortunately, I can't go. That's the trouble, I probably couldn't even go for Darius.

July 1, 200915 yr Thanks. I think I might go to the Manchester one. It could be my birthday present! Sue
July 1, 200915 yr They have a John Owen-Jones as well and he is exceptionally good. If i could get to a show, I'd love to see him again. He stopped the show when he sang 'Bring Him Home'. An absolutely brilliant performance well deserving the ovation it received.
July 4, 200915 yr Thanks for all your support for Gareth in this role. Its a great achievement for Gareth. I've never seen Les Mis, but will definitely be seeing it now. I've been checking out the music on YouTube and I really think it will suit Gareth. There is a really good article and interview in `Wales On Line' today with Stifyn Parri who played Marius in the West End previously. He seems very impressed with Gareth's voice and even more impressive that he thinks he's perfect for the part. http://www.walesonline.co.uk/showbiz-and-l...91466-24071137/ The excitement is rising again Edited July 4, 200915 yr by val4jadan
July 4, 200915 yr Gives life a little buzz doesn't it. The last Marius I saw was so lack lustre, you couldn't pick him out. Gareth's voice alone will make him stand out. I really wish I could go but, unless my Mum improves very quickly I won t be able to.
