commentary: das-musical.de / September 2003 ...Astonishment spread through the musical world when the cast of Javert was announced with Uwe Kroeger, but Kroeger proved sceptics like opponents that he can impersonate this character brilliant. As the hard and relentless Javert, he puts a clear sign, with the vocally very demanding piece of "star": Deep respect! The scene in the canals with the transformation of Javert shows Uwe Kroegers charismatic knowledge. With his brilliant acting he coud show the audience anytime, that the break of Javerts values, his world of order and law, can only lead to suicide. The impression of a weak Javerts doesn't arise at any moment. On the contrary. His consistent play shows Kroegers strengh. Javerts choice of suicide is played brilliant by Uwe Kroeger... musical-cocktail / December 2003 ...Uwe Kroeger, the well known and international musical star, can be seen in the leading role of the police inspector Javert. He was last seen as the death in "Elisabeth" in Essen. In this production he establishs his reputation that he belongs to the top of the German musical actors. His well known voice and his self-controlled play underline the terrifying character of the police inspector. Uwe Kroeger shines with an excellent and convincing performance as Javert... Berliner Morgenpost / 27.09.2003 ...Uwe Kroeger plays the role of Javert as a captivating, threatening and obligation-possessed police inspector... BZ Kultur / 27.09.2003 ...Frenetically celebrated: the Ukrainian Oleh Vynnyk as a noble former prisoner Jean Valjean, Uwe Kroeger as his opponent Javert and Vera Bolten as Eponine... Berliner Zeitung / 27./28.09.2003 ...His torturer gives up at the end. Javert brings himself down from a bridge (a touching scene with Uwe Kroeger), beaten incapably to arrest Valjean as it would be his duty, struck by his pityless decency... ...in addition, a vocal and dramatically splendid cast stands on the stage with Oleh Vynnyk, Uwe Kroeger and Vera Bolten... Rheinische Post / 28.09.2003 ...Uwe Kroeger (Javert) and Vera Bolten (Eponine) strongly presented themselves. Kroeger played the dutiful and disciplined police inspector, however troubled at the end by his self-doubts. His suicide performance doesn't need to shun any comparison... |
