I want nothing more than to see Les Mis and Carrie! She is my inspiration; and this is stupid but I have this little Dumbledore figurine I wanted to leave at stage door x THIS WAS INCREDIBLE
This kind of love and camaraderie is exactly why I so look forward to a career in theatre. I love these vlogs best of all Carrie! Thank you for giving us a real insight into the working part of your life.
i have been to a musical theatre summer school called west end stage two years in a row, last year (2014) Rob and Bradley came and did a master class with us, and we went to see Les Mis one of that days as well. i was right in the front row, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. unfortunately you were busy that week, but you sang for the second and third week groups at the summer school, I hope to go again this year, because i have learnt so much from being there.
Hey Carrie! I came to les mis a while ago (all the way from NL - it was more than worth it though, I cried my eyes out), and I was fortunate enough to see you as Éponine! You didn't come to stage door though (which is completely okay), so I gave my gift to the kind man at the stage door. It was like a little bag with two charms (a les mis and hopeful one) and a note. I was just wondering if you've received it and like it! I wish you a merry late Christmas and a happy new year!! xxx Imke
Carrie, it is so wonderful seeing you do something you love so much with people you clearly enjoy being around. Seeing you in such a good place gives me so much... well, HOPE! I adore you, your endless kindness, goodness and positivity. I am so happy for you, and so proud of you. You inspire me every day. Happy Holidays Carrie.
I went to see A Christmas Carol yesterday, and there was a section in the program that was titled "Eponine meets Eponine" and my I edited thoughts went to you and so I looked at the picture AND IT WAS YOU! I'm already incredibly jealous of you cuz you've managed to achieve over 2/3 of my life goals before the age of 30 and you're in Les Mis BUT NOW I DISCOVER YOU'VE MET AND CONVERSED WITH THE ORIGINAL EPONINE WTF!!!!!! Seriously! You're so incredibly talented and lucky.
Hi Carrie!So I have never had much money, but the love of my life gave me the best Christmas present ever this year - he's taking me to see Les Miz! He kinda doesn't love musicals or anything but he knows it means the world to me! I'm going on the 2nd of January and I hope to see you and tick a thing or two off my bucket list! So excited
+JessToLetYouKnow First guy in the cat suit is Adam Pearce AKA Bamatabois/Brujon. Second is Jo Parons AKA Grantaire. Third is Jordan Lee Davies AKA Swing and Assistant Dance Captain. Forth is Matt Harvey AKA Courfeyrac. Fifth is Ed Campbell Bird AKA Jean Prouvaire! :P xxx
The carol singing brought me back to our carol service in school! Except ours was way worse, and because the lads were belting it out, it was too low for me to even try and sing in my normal range! I mean, I could have, but my voice is quite high and would have been quite noticeable, so yeah...
+Elektrascity +Frankenzebra_ it doesn't look like an authentic unitard at all - that begs the question of where he got it, though! I'm part of the CATS cosplay community, and that unitard doesn't look like something anyone I know has painted. Hmm!
OMG, thank you SO much for sharing that whole performance. I almost choked and spit out my drink a couple times. This was brilliant!!! ^_^ Happy Christmas
CARRIE! you have to read the land of stories book series by Chris Colfer , aka Kurt Hummel from Glee, its about two twins who find out that their Grandma and late Dad are from a different dimension where all fairy tale characters live in different kingdoms and what happens when they find themselves trapped in the fairy-tale world. I will say no-more but you HAVE to read them! xxx
my dream is to be in the west end and everytime you do behind the scenes videos like these it makes me work that little bit harder thank you for being an unknown motivation x
who jumps out at 2:42? I recognise them from other videos and always find them so adorable (if I'm thinking of the right person) I'd really like to get behind their career and watch them go places!
can i recommend a a book that i absolutedly adore! it is called miss peregrines home for peculiar children by ransom riggs. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE read it cause i think you'll like it
I love hearing people who can actually sing sing carols
Same
*sees Les Mis in the title*
*drops all responsibilities to watch the video*
Pretty much
Me too dude me too
There is only 4 words to describe that amazing performance "How very musical theatre" 😂😂 love those boys
HAHA THE DANCE WAS AMAZING! it was like a really elaborate Christmas Circus
Fa-la-la-la-laaa! x
Carrie's laugh is so sweet and full of joy 💕
I want nothing more than to see Les Mis and Carrie! She is my inspiration; and this is stupid but I have this little Dumbledore figurine I wanted to leave at stage door x THIS WAS INCREDIBLE
Meanwhile in the streets of Paris during the revolution
yes
Thanks so much for sharing this!! First class old school fun, geniusly thought up and big respect for the chaps finding the time to choreograph!
I watched Les Mis on the 23rd and you were incredible oml
So did I!!!
+Ruby Hancock HOW GOOD WAS CARRIE OMD
I did as well and she was PHENOMENAL
+Socially Awkward British Unicorn She definitely stood out, not being biassed
Was it just me that laughed when the blood was on her boob and not her chest ?😂
Best use of multiple "step, ball, change" EVER!
Those guys can really move their hips!!! Although I would expect no less from a West End cast :D xxx

Omg I've been on that course before! It was so fun! 😝
I really want to go on that course! Is it good?
I'm going to West End Stage for my 3rd year next year!! Their masterclass was amazing! And so was Les Mis!
I'm going west end stage next year for first time xx

Awwww you are so sweet and lucky :) I'll never get to see her bc I live in Australia. Where is 'NL'? I read it as 'Never Land' lol
+Raven Princi assuming that it means Netherlands. :D
Lo rena haha not that far off XD
Raven Princi Hahahaha, thank you so much;-)! It does stand for the netherlands, but I much prefer neverland though!
+Imke Lolove (What's Random) let's get carrie to see this!
Jordan was so in his element up there! I hope you had a lovely christmas Carrie x
their shoes really add to the whole performance. Made me smile!
Jordan's entrance was literally the cutest thing ever 🙌🏻😂
Carrie, it is so wonderful seeing you do something you love so much with people you clearly enjoy being around. Seeing you in such a good place gives me so much... well, HOPE! I adore you, your endless kindness, goodness and positivity. I am so happy for you, and so proud of you. You inspire me every day. Happy Holidays Carrie.
This made me feel all warm and fuzzy (like your videos always do). Thank you, Carrie!

Loved the video, Carrie! You and the Les Mis cast seem to get alone so well and that's hella cute
I'm so in love with that performance hahaha
I have no idea how many times I've watched this in the past year
Coming to see the show with my family on New Year's Eve! I'm so excited!
I feel like this video embodies the spirit of Christmas and is now compulsory seasonal watching for myself :)
oh my god, jordan is such a cutie! loved the whole performance!
Awe, the boys did so well!

PHANDOM! Hi
WhichWayTheHeartGoes X hey :-)

Came to see Les Mis on the 22nd and loved it very much! You and the whole cast were fab - had both my mum and nan in tears :')
I went to see A Christmas Carol yesterday, and there was a section in the program that was titled "Eponine meets Eponine" and my I edited thoughts went to you and so I looked at the picture AND IT WAS YOU!

It be truthful, it's pretty much the only bit of the program I read before the performance started XD
Omg this was HILARIOUS thank you so much for filming it!!!
Hi Carrie!So I have never had much money, but the love of my life gave me the best Christmas present ever this year - he's taking me to see Les Miz!

who do the dancing guys play in the show? would love it if Javert was just banging out the moves haha
+JessToLetYouKnow
First guy in the cat suit is Adam Pearce AKA Bamatabois/Brujon.
Second is Jo Parons AKA Grantaire.
Third is Jordan Lee Davies AKA Swing and Assistant Dance Captain.
Forth is Matt Harvey AKA Courfeyrac.
Fifth is Ed Campbell Bird AKA Jean Prouvaire! :P
xxx
ah that's ace thank you for replying! xx
I love this so much! The whole cast are so talented! I can't wait to come see Les Mis again🌟
I absolutely adore this! Not ready to let go of Christmas yet, so this has made my night! xx
Show people are the greatest people ever.
That performance was incredible! It looks like so much fun being part of Les Mis
The carol singing brought me back to our carol service in school! Except ours was way worse, and because the lads were belting it out, it was too low for me to even try and sing in my normal range! I mean, I could have, but my voice is quite high and would have been quite noticeable, so yeah...
Christmas at Les Mis looks like so much fun!! I hope you had a magical Christmas Carrie!!!💖
Is he wearing a Munkustrap costume from Cats the Musical?
+Elektrascity i thought it was munkustrap but it doesnt look stripy enough (but then everyone has their own versions so it might well be)
+Frankenzebra _ hmm that's true but i don't know who else it could be really
harder to tell without the wig lol think he normally has a fluffier tail too
+Elektrascity that's what I was thinking. I wonder why though!
+Elektrascity +Frankenzebra_ it doesn't look like an authentic unitard at all - that begs the question of where he got it, though! I'm part of the CATS cosplay community, and that unitard doesn't look like something anyone I know has painted. Hmm!
Love this Carrie!! And I got tickets for Christmas to come watch Les mis on New Year's Eve matinee could you come to stage door?xxx
OMG, thank you SO much for sharing that whole performance. I almost choked and spit out my drink a couple times. This was brilliant!!! ^_^ Happy Christmas
I want to see you in Les mis so bad!! I love it SO MUCH
This is the very reason why I love being part of the theatre community. So hilarious and fun!
this is sooo good! Oh man it makes me miss my theatre guys so much o.o
I started tearing up a bit in happiness
Looks like such a great bunch of people to work with!! xx
Such entertainers, much awesome!
That was so cool, enjoyed it very much.
Yay a new vid!! Happy belated Christmas Carrie :)
I love your username!
Socially Awkward British Unicorn haha thanks lol, u a killjoy too? I love your username, very creative! XD
+MCR Guitar Thank you!! I am a Killjoy and I've got my friends into MCR as well!!
Socially Awkward British Unicorn thats brilliant lol :)
This looks so fun! It really makes me wanna be in a musical!
I love the Les Mis cast you're so much of a family!
merry Christmas and thank you for being an amazing inspiration xxx
I put this in my favourites folder so whenever I feel sad I can watch it back!:D
I'm coming to see les mis in January this has just made me so much more exited.
And was the man in the middle of the dance number ever in Cats?
CARRIE! you have to read the land of stories book series by Chris Colfer , aka Kurt Hummel from Glee, its about two twins who find out that their Grandma and late
Dad are from a different dimension where all fairy tale characters live in different kingdoms and what happens when they find themselves trapped in the fairy-tale world. I will say no-more but you HAVE to read them! xxx
Thank you so much for sharing this Carrie, highlight of my Christmas :D
That was AMAZING! Please congratulate them, it was genious! Loved it :)
I find it very interesting that you sing a different version of Deck the Halls in the UK.
I don't think it's a UK thing, I live in the UK and the one they sang was different to what I've always heard too!!
I would just love to come and watch you xx it looks like a amazing show!!
I am distraught but it' s also so unbelievably funny! Thanks for sharing!
Merry late christmas Carrie! I got ur book for christmas & can't wait to start reading it! Love u a lottle💜💛
my dream is to be in the west end and everytime you do behind the scenes videos like these it makes me work that little bit harder
thank you for being an unknown motivation x
OMG this made my day! You guys are amazing!
Omg Adam dancing around in that cats costume is the best thing I've ever seen 😂😂
Glorious! Was the first guy wearing a costume from Cats??
Yet another reason to add to my list of many why I want to work in the west end 💜💛💜
this made me incredibly happy
This made me smile so much :D I love seeing backstage, it makes me nostalgic :) the boys tho
THIS. IS. AMAZING.
Yall should make that a part of the show somehow!! Haha loved it!
Will you be there in the matinee on Tuesday? :) So exciteeeeeed
god I would love to to tech for a production of les mis
I'm watching this with the biggest smile on my face 😊
I'm going to show this to people that don't understand me when I say 'show family'. This is exactly what it's like.
This made me smile a lot! 😀
This was amazing! 💗🎄
Got the best Xmas/bday prezzie! Tickets to come see les mis on 2nd Jan!! Would love to see you and say hi!!
Have a great time. I went to see it in October and it was incredible.
That was adorable 😆 great job guys 🎄☃🎩
You're videos make me so happy :D
Merry Christmas Carrie 🌸
As soon as I saw the box called stuff I was like HE MOVED IN
Amazing! Did they get help from the Cats crew? That cat suit looks incredibly familiar.
I'm going to see Les Mis on February 17th!! I'm so excited. Will you be in it on that day?xxx
+Freya Mosedale I will have left for good by then I'm afraid but I hope you enjoy the show! xxx
Oh no... That's such a shame... I'm sure I'll enjoy it anyway!! When are you leaving? xxx
who jumps out at 2:42? I recognise them from other videos and always find them so adorable (if I'm thinking of the right person) I'd really like to get behind their career and watch them go places!
That's Jordan Lee Davies - he's a swing and the assistant dance captain x
Is it just me or is this blog super artsy
Spectacular!
Loved this! Who are the boys from dressing room 14?
WAIT! HE PERFORMED THIS IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE AUDIENCE !?!!
+Amanda Helms No of course not, it's just the cast and crew.
No just cast and crew
No... Just to the cast as a kind of joke performance! That would be so unprofessional!!
+TheLittleWorldOfJulia Why unprofessional?? It's just funny.
rocibel86 That would be really unproffesional if it was to the actual audience! They've paid to see Les Mis
Watching things like this makes me want to chase my dreams of being an actress so badly ♥
That was AMAZING!!
Oh I love this! Who is the "main" male performer in the video? He is hysterical!
He's the guy who plays a queer (not being rude, he is called queer in the show)
+Kate He plays it's Adam Pearce. Bamatabois and Brujon in the show! xxx
Thanks Carrie! He is absolutely brilliant. :) xx
+Kate fun fact- he was also Brujon in the movie version!! :)
OMFG! This is amazing!
can i recommend a a book that i absolutedly adore! it is called miss peregrines home for peculiar children by ransom riggs. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE read it cause i think you'll like it
I've read that! I think the film's coming out soon (or already come out)??
My friend keeps bugging me to read it! Isn't it the one based off all the old photos? I can't get my hands on it :(
i ordered it online through kindle. And i am SSSSOOOOO pumped for the movie. also the sequel is out but i haven't read it yet
Carrie, can you please ask the middle guy (I don't know his name, sorry!) where he got his Munkustrap unitard? That was hilarious!!!
I can't answer you regarding the costume sadly but I believe the guy is Adam Pearce :)
This was amazing
Hey Carrie, I am coming to see the show on the 2nd of January and I was wondering if you would still be there, if anyone knows please let me know 💕
+Isabelle david I shall be there!!! Enjoy! :D xxx
