RAMIN KARIMLOO<br />

Ramin Karimloo, one of the West-End’s and Broadway’s most recognizable and<br />

acclaimed names, has announced his ‘From Now On’ tour, across the UK.<br />

Named after his version of the powerful<br />

song from the Oscar-nominated film The<br />

Greatest Showman, the concerts will see<br />

Ramin perform well-known numbers from<br />

Les Miserables, Phantom of the Opera<br />

and more of your favourite musical and<br />

contemporary hits.<br />

Award nomination. In addition, he played<br />

the role of Enjolras in the 25 th Anniversary<br />

of Les Miserables at the O2 Arena in<br />

London. Most recently, Ramin starred<br />

as Gleb in Anastasia on Broadway and<br />

Anatoly in Chess at the Kennedy Center in<br />

Washington, DC.<br />

Putting a fresh twist<br />

onto the tracks, Ramin<br />

will be accompanied by<br />

his ‘Broadgrass’ band,<br />

a clever mix between<br />

‘Broadway’ and the<br />

bluegrass genre.<br />

The Iranian-born<br />

Canadian singer and<br />

performer is known<br />

as one of the most<br />

formidable talents in musical theatre.<br />

Critically acclaimed for his portrayal<br />

of leading roles - Jean Valjean in Les<br />

Miserables on Broadway (2014 Tony Award<br />

nominee) and London’s West End as well<br />

as the Phantom in Phantom of the Opera<br />

in London, Ramin is a musical force unlike<br />

any other. He immortalized the role in the<br />

25 th Anniversary Concert of Phantom of<br />

The Opera at The Royal Albert Hall and<br />

also originated the leading role in Love<br />

Never Dies, the sequel to Phantom of the<br />

Opera, for which he received an Olivier<br />

Ramin, who also plays the banjo and guitar,<br />

will perform with his band<br />

comprising of Nick Pini,<br />

Alan Markley, Sergio Ortega,<br />

Georgina Leach. He will be<br />

stopping by Suffolk on 29 th<br />

<strong>January</strong> performing at The<br />

Apex in Bury St Edmunds.<br />

<strong>Bounce</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong> speaks to<br />

Ramin about his upcoming<br />

tour.<br />

Ramin, You’ve played some<br />

of the most well known and iconic roles<br />

in musical theatre - which has been your<br />

favourite to perform?<br />

Oh, That’s a difficult one. I have enjoyed<br />

them all. Recently I played Che in Evita<br />

and that was a blast. Such a great<br />

character to play as he’s so dynamic.<br />

Of course Jean Valjean and The Phantom<br />

were a gift to play as an actor. I also have a<br />

fond memory of playing Archibald Craven<br />

in Secret Garden.<br />
