I gotta say, Cameron Blakely’s portrayal of Pulitzer is (as of right now) my absolute favourite and it actually breaks my heart that he’s one of the OGs who is leaving 😢.
Not only is his performance of course incredible every time he’s onstage - commanding and genuinely sinister at times - but visually there’s this sharpness to his features - especially his eyes - because of his darker hair (and maybe guy-liner?) that just makes him seem more ruthless and villainous to me and I love it… I have no idea if that makes any sense or just sounds stupid - but, yeah - Blakely has been such an amazing Pulitzer and I’m sad to see him go!

Cameron sings the wrong lyrics to master of the house but saves it masterfully....I’m sure nobody noticed babe.

“Wedding Chorale” and “Beggars at the Feast,” London, 2013. Cameron Blakely as Thénardier, Wendy Ferguson as Mme. Thénardier, Rob Houchen as Marius, Samantha Dorsey as Cosette.
An excellent performance. Cameron and Wendy are both spot-on as the Thénardiers: his gravelly voice and her brassy screech are perfect for the roles and they handle all their comic business (Mme. T. falling when she curtsies, her gulping down two glasses of wine, the dropping of the stolen silver, etc.) with expertise. They add some nice unique touches to: for example, the way Cameron demonstratively sags his body on “...like a bloody great sack!” and the moment in “Beggars at the Feast” when on “And here’s me breaking bread...” he accidentally spins his wife clear across the stage, then pauses, waits until she gets back, then starts the line over. Rob’s Marius is spot-on his exasperation too. It’s interesting that instead of punching Thénardier on “Take this too!” he fakes Thénardier out on that line, delivering it as if he were about to give him money, only to surprise him with the punch instead. That’s a touch of cunning we don’t normally see from Marius.
The ensemble is excellent, with their own subtle assortment of funny details: for example, one man’s gleeful reaction to catching Cosette’s bouquet, and the ever-perturbed expressions of the majordomo’s bespectacled young assistant. The latter gets quite a bit of camera focus, I think because he’s Anton Zetterholm, the cast’s Enjolras.
