    Ramin Karimloo is one of our favorites. He was in Georgetown, Texas for a special performance for high school kids in 2011. My daughter was able to meet him, then we attended his concert that evening. Super nice guy, blessed with an incredible voice.

    As an Iranian who is suffering from revolution of 79, I appreciate Ramin and his Family and I feel proud of him as a strong Iranian singer. Iran had great singers like him and he is following them. Go on Ramin! I hope one day I'll see you in Iran singing! When our country is free at last!

    Ramin Karimloo's story at the end of how he was drawn to the theater is lovely, and he tells it beautifully. Best wishes to him and the Funny Girl company for a genuine success on Broadway!

    He needs a show written just for him. (Yes, Love Never Dies but that sucked. Twice) he was great in Les Miserables. But he was underused in Anastasia and he’ll be underused in Funny Girl

      @adlegacy56 Před 2 lety +1

      I completely agree. Clearly Lauren Conrad protests clearly indicate she don't know who Fanny Brice is. No, she was no sex symbol, but she as a waif of a girl, skinny with funny looks, and her entire career was based on her making fun of the way she looked and being Jewish. The self deprecating humour of Fanny Brice worked in "Funny Girl" with Streisand in the role, (once again no sex symbol, but with slightly peculiar looks), but with Beanie Feldstein in the role, all the self deprecating jokes that Fanny makes about herself and her looks will be perceived as "Fat Jokes". I love Beanie Feldstein, a great talent, amazing voice, but she is wrong for the role of Fanny Brice.

      I think since he’s had major roles in every theater musical for the last 20 years all over the world perhaps he will do just fine you evidently are not familiar with him. You could begin with the 25th anniversary of phantom of the opera at Royal Albert Hall as well as the 25th anniversary of Les Miserables in London at the O2 Arena… not to mention he is known all over the world has played Judas in Jesus Christ superstar in Japan in South Korea and has playedChe in Evita and Chris in Miss Saigon. To mention just a few!
