Today they went to see the hit musical Les Miserables on Broadway. When I'd asked Richard previously he'd said that his dream theatre role would be to play Jean Valjean! So being able to watch the show from the front row followed by a tour backstage was a dream come true! Alfie Boe is currently playing Richard's coveted role and when he heard that Richard and Roxy were 'in the area' he arranged this for them! Perhaps one day he'll be able to help Richard get the role of Jean Valjean!!
They Both thought the whole experience was absolutely brilliant, the show had new direction and they preferred the Broadway set to ones they have seen before, it is a show they have seen several times! And of course they thought Alfie Boe was 'Amazing!'
They also bumped into Matt, who was on his way to see The Colour Purple, also on Broadway, this was a total coincidence!! Perhaps another example of the guys being so close and in tune with each other that even when they are having 'time apart' they end up together again!? Perhaps Richard and Matt had been communicating telepathically!? I often think, when I watch them perform, that they seem to be reading each others minds, the way their voices blend together so perfectly!
