Everyone in the comments are saying that Emily is playing this seductively... in this particular performance yeah I agree. BUT in the actual show Emily is a great Kim I saw the tour twice and she was an amazing Kim
I saw Miss Saigon with Emily as Kim and Anthony as Chris. They were my first Kim and Chris. I thought they were fantastic in their roles- I believed in their love. I did not want it to be tragic- that was how much I loved them together. After all, they were my first Kim and Chris- they did standout.
Emily does a great job as Kim. the tour is wonderful
I completely agree with you! Saw them both in Philly and they were amazing 💕 here it is a little much though 😂 also was the song this fast in the actual show? I prefer it slower, it feels more romantic that way
Could be her lips, I guess?
By Last Night of the World, Kim is already passionate and totally in love with Chris so I understand the feeling of seduction Kim feels. It’s a different and interesting take and makes sense. In Sun and Moon she still has that blushing innocent young girl feeling. By Last Night of the World, Kim is giving herself wholeheartedly to Chris - it’s in the lyrics, dance like it’s the last night of the world.
Lots of emotion with the performance of lea and simon, I think it is the most realistic performance it made lea won an award😆 but let's give chance to others though, they will hopefully improve as time goes by
I thoroughly enjoyed Emily & Anthony as Kim & Chris on Tour through San Antonio this month - saw it twice! The entire cast and show were phenomenal. I loved seeing Miss Saigon 17 years ago, and love it even more now. What an amazing group of singers, including the characters of John, the Engineer, Ellen, Gigi. Bravo to all!
I like Emily"s facial expression, full of emotion, and Anthony, he's portrayed the role of Chris so well
It was real, they dated during the tour! 💘💞❤️🔥 I enjoyed watching them perform live❣️👏🏼💫 Imagine the talent & good looks their children would have, if they got back together & had kiddos!
They were all amazing. Loved the show!
I saw this cast play tonight in Houston!! I loved it!!! Everyone was fabulous, Kim has a great voice!!!
This is very different from how they acted in the tour
I just watched this yesterday. It was amazing! I cried.
wow! great chemistry they have! for me it's great i can feel their connection
It was real, they dated during the tour! 💘💞❤️🔥 I enjoyed watching them perform live❣️👏🏼💫 Imagine the talent & good looks their children would have, if they got back together & had kiddos!
Saw them in Boston last week. Have seen Lea Salonga and a few others play Kim over the years, and Emily was fantastic!
CHRIS
In a place that won't let us feel
In a life where nothing seems real
I have found you
I have found you
KIM
In a world that's moving to fast
In a world where nothing can last
I will hold you
I will hold you
CHRIS
Our lives will change when tomorrow comes
KIM
Tonight our hearts drown the distant drums
CHRIS
And we have music alright tearing the night
CHRIS and KIM
A song played on a solo saxophone
A crazy sound
A lonely sound
A cry that tells us love goes on and on
Played on a solo saxophone
It's telling me to hold you tight
And dance like its the last night of the world
CHRIS
On the otherside of the the earth
There's a place where life still has worth
I will take you
KIM
I'll go with you
CHRIS
You wont believe all the things you'll see
I know cause you'll see them all with me
CHRIS and KIM
If we're together that's when
We'll here it again
A song played on a solo saxophone
A crazy sound
A lonely sound
A cry that tells us love goes on and on
Played on a solo saxophone
It's telling me to hold you tight
And dance like its the last night of the world
KIM
Dreams were all I ever knew
CHRIS
Dreams, you wont need when I'm through
CHRIS and KIM
Anywere we may be
I will sing with you, a song...
So stay with me and hold me tight
And dance like its the last night of the world
Anthony Festa’s vibrato is something else.
Lea still is the best
I'm having a hard time believing this actress is an innocent orphan of war. She has too much seduction in her eyes and facial expressions and way she is singing this song she looks as she is singing a rock song. I'm glad I did not purchase tickets to this revival of Miss Saigon. Saw her sing I'd Give My Life for you on Fox 32 as well. I did not care for the way she sang this song as well which is sang to the characters young son Tam. Same thing no innocence of the character in this actress. I've seen Miss Saigon many times not only on Broadway in Chicago but regional theater productions as well as 1 high school. One of the best ones I have seen was done by Drury Lane in Oakbrook. The Paramount in Aurora did some strange staging moves in their production which I did not care for (Sun/Moon reprise after the fall of Saigon and The American Dream) but they did so a fantastic job of bringing an innocence to the character of Kim.
I saw this revival 5 times in San Francisco. I thought Emily did a good job and had some good acting. If you are looking for innocence, try to catch a matinee where you may get one of the more "innocent" understudy who was also very good.
I agree- I was hoping the broadway alternate, Liana Sta. Ana would be selected for the national tour. Love her! Bautista is very talented tho. Everyone in the show has much better vocal talent than I’ll ever have 😂
@@vivalagade9587 I believe Maneepat ( Myra) is the understudy in the US tour.
@@Chris-kb5dj No, Myra Molloy is the Kim alternate, Kim understudy is the other girl who hasn't had a chance to play Kim yet.
@@vivalagade9587 Actually that girl is the Kim alternate, sadly for Kim understudy, she will not get a chance to perform as Kim until Emily is sick or something like that happen.
For people saying Emily is being too seductive, that’s kinda the point ✌️😗
No it's not.
I feel that people expect Kim to be innocent and in love, without the seduction she must use with "Johns" she sleeps with for money.
Why is it too.. Seductive?? 😅 I love Lea and Eva's version and Will Chase and Alistair as Chris ❤️❤️❤️
Eva is the worst Kim
@@ed10908
No way, she's great.
But that's your opinion, I guess.
Blair Bart II TAKE THAT BACK 😳 WILL IS THE BEST CHRIS
Blair Bart II Oh really? then who do you think the best chris is? and you better not say Simon Bowman 😳
@Blair Bart II
I think Alistair is kinda bad......I've seen multiple videos of him that made me cringe.
Lea Salonga as Kim & Simon Bowman as Chris are the best they are History!
That’s true and to think some idiots tried hard to replace Salonga. Just because of racism.
Lea salongga still the best version ❤️
Can we just appreciate that they are a couple IRL
That show just opened in Tempe Arizona today! To those who have seen this show, is it any good?
Absolutely a MUST see!! Just saw it last night at ASU Gammage!
You were there on Friday night’s performance too Paul Guerrero? I was there too! It was fine. Wouldn’t consider it a favorite show of mine. But I did meet Emily and Anthony after the show. They were nice people! Please check out my interview with Emily
Outstanding production! Saw it last night with alternate Myra Molloy as Kim. She is younger and adds some innocence to the role. Anthony Festa needs to be a star on Broadway!
she’s very good live
"Vibrato: The Musical"
I love Miss Saigon (saw it 3 times in London with the revival cast) but the vibrato is OTT and some songs would be much better with more subtle dynamics. The Chris here is decent but the Kim is not great, especially compared to Eva Noblezada :/.
Everyone has their own interpretation of a role, so you really can't compare. And if she is "not great," then she wouldn't have been the understudy for Kim on Broadway or have the leading role on this tour. The people who gave her the role know what they're doing. It's easy to be a critic, but I don't see you in any big musicals.
She must play gigi instead
LEA WILL ALWAYS BE
She is a Gigi, but not a Kim.
TheMouseFan I just previously saw her as Kim and I thought she did a great job and the girl that played Gigi was good as gigi
As a Vietnam vet I wanted to comment about the protesting, bitching and moaning that’s happened because of this musical. Some people like so much now days was offended because the actors either used make up to make them look Asian, or not enough Asians were used in the show. If you knew any women in Vietnam as I did you would know that half French half American and Philippine women were everywhere and to bitch because the actor wasn’t pure enough or too white is the sickest shit and the most hypocritical bullshit since trying to edit Huckleberry Finn. Vietnam should be proud that a great play was even made about it.
Sorry for the comment. Missing Lea's Voice.
There is no such tenderness in her voice, no innocence at all. Although her acting is good. Her voice is also very common.
Emily plays this song with a lot of seduction looool
Sorry but NO ONE will play role of Kim better than Lea Solonga....EVER!!
I don't especially like either the portrayal of Chris or Kim, as done here. The voices are good, but looks and actions are not pleasant!
It is too much with regards with acting. She is overly showing affection. And her voice is just common. Still Leah had the best version.
It's the last night of the world, it's supposed to be sexy.
more of romantic not sexy
Who is playing Kim in the Promo Video though?
Sooha Kim
Good voices, bad acting. Watch Lea Salonga and Simon Bowman from the original West End production to see this performed with tenderness and love.
I know Kim's a bar girl in Dream land but not this type of a bar girl.... the actress has a different interpretation maybe...
kumander bawang I watched the actual musical twice at Pantages Hollywood and she wasn’t like that in the performance so maybe just this time she did that?
Lea’s incomparable and the best, Eva is second rate and this Emily? A miscast.
no need to be rude and call Emily a "miscast"...
I think it’s just not to par with Lea because no one can home a candle to her
@@jordenamir I’ll say what I want to say STFU
Yeah it's too seductive, it's almost like they're gonna makeout already lol the audience reacting to it made it even worse made me laugh so hard haha, but anyways great performance tho
WTF happened to Kim? 😱😢
no need to be rude
really bad pronounciation eww Lea's still the best
zaira_ misty C7 really you don’t have to put her down but I agree that Lea’s the best
is this necessary?
I don't see passion. I see lust!😂😂😂
You’re right it was real, they dated during the tour! 💘💞❤️🔥 I enjoyed watching them perform live❣️👏🏼💫 Imagine the talent & good looks their children would have, if they got back together & had kiddos!
