truly the miserables

now, i love the Jonas Brothers as much as the next person. actually probably more than the next person.

BUT CAN I JUST SAY that i do not support Nick Jonas playing the role of Marius in the new London production of Les Miserables. NOPE. do not support this.

i first learned this via Nick's twitter. i will neither confirm nor deny that i follow Nick on twitter. and i was shocked and horrified. and then i forgot about it. and then i read it somewhere else. and i just got plain angry.

i think one of the most beautiful lines in a musical ever written is when Marius sings, "i did not live until today" when he sees Cosette. and i can not, and don't want to, picture Nick Jonas singing this line.

also - Empty Chairs at Empty Tables. can a Jonas really pull that off?? can NICK JONAS really pull that off??

oh man i REALLY don't want him to 'boy-band-ify' that show.

like, when Zac Efron was in talks to remake Footloose - i was fine with that. cause it's Footloose. not Les Mis. and not Nick Jonas.

aw man this whole thing just makes me feel depressed.
