If you haven't seen this yet you really need to.
And Marius and Enjorlas are well known Polish pop stars -- Enjorlas especially. This explains the screaming.

XD Saw this a couple of days ago, and I had the exact same thought! Turned to my dad, and just said: Dad. We need to go to Warsaw. Now would be good.

Helena sent it to me as soon as she saw it and was in the prosess of planning to go hehe. Just played it to my parents - seems like there may be a max Les Mis migration... I wonder if we could get reduced tickets All joking aside, it is stunning. It's not just magical because of the whole flash mob thing but they are all such talented vocalists. Not one is weak. Does anyone know if this cast have a CD?

And I love the fact that this a former communist country. Here is some fan footage from the mall. The first link is the best www.youtube.com/watch?v=SX6T_ACzY6gwww.youtube.com/watch?v=0D4m7UiKNiQwww.youtube.com/watch?v=-1s6O_-FsyUHere's the cast in costume: Commercial: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8vmY1RLxFIAll joking aside, it is stunning. It's not just magical because of the whole flash mob thing but they are all such talented vocalists. Not one is weak. Does anyone know if this cast have a CD? There is a CD but because of licensing it is only being sold in the theater. The website for it here: teatrroma.pl/sklep/"40.00 zł" is roughly $14 U.S. (1 zł is about 35 cents U.S.) I'm trying to find out if they ship outside Poland. But as I understand no Polish this is difficult. Someone want to go to the show and buy us all CDs? Hey, I can do paypal! I really like to have all proper packaging for my LM collection.

I'm using google translate here but I think they do ship overseas. Quoting number 13 from their 'rules of shop': In order to purchase more products or shipping items overseas, please contact us by e-mail sklep@teatrroma.pl
I'll poke Aleks when she's online because she speaks some Polish at least!
Tell you what, you pay for me to go out to buy them and I'll send you a CD no cost ;D

Har, har, I'm sure you'd like me to pay for your trip to Poland!
I posted a question about it on C19. There are lots of Polish members over there. Hopefully we'll get some help. Unfortunately the Polish member I know the best over there doesn't log in regularly. I might have her email someplace but I'd have to dig. She's on LJ as well but doesn't log in regularly there either. Another friend of mine knows some Polish and I know that she loves this Polish LM cast. So she's looking into it as well.
So somewhere somehow we'll hopefully figure this out!

One of the Polish members on C19 said that we should just use that email and write them in English. She says they're sure to understand. And if I need any help after that she can help.
I'll probably try it in a couple days.

Something like this happened at my job, musical actors disguised as doctors and patients were singing arias, musical theatre numbers were performed and stuff. Hahaha! Well, I missed it, btw, but both "surprise" performances were recorded.

Did we ever work out if this CD would ship?

I ordered it and even got a confirmation email saying it was coming. I paid almost nothing for shipping. But that was almost 2 months ago and I've still not received it. Of course considering how little I paid for shipping that might be part of it. I only hope it hasn't been lost.
I just checked, my confirmation email came July 13.

Ah, kinda pleased I didn't order it yesterday - I nearly caved! Have you contacted them?

Good news! It came! It arrived today. I was starting to worry. But I gave it the benefit of the doubt because I paid so little for shipping (about $2 U.S.; SOM charges about $12) and sometimes American products you order will say things such as "6 to 8 weeks by mail." This took 7 weeks.
I'm just putting it on and so far so good (I'm on "Wyśniłam Sen" otherwise known as "I Dreamed a Dream"). The packaging is lovely! There and there are two pull out posters (well, one poster that has two sides) If my camera worked I take a photo of it. But oddly enough no printed lyrics. Just the cast, writers, orchestra etc ... and track listings.

I've been listening to the Polish album a lot lately as, unlike the movie, it has a GREAT cast. A cast that includes two pop stars (Marius and Enjolras) who actually have the chops for musical theater! As I now have a camera again (I got one for Christmas) I thought I'd post some photos of the packaging, which is gorgeous:
