biography
John Owen-Jones is a record-breaking West End and Broadway actor and singer best known for his critically acclaimed and award-winning performances as Jean Valjean in Les Misérables and as The Phantom in The Phantom of the Opera. John remains the youngest actor in West End history to have played Jean Valjean in Les Misérables (a role he also played twice on Broadway) and has performed as the Phantom in The Phantom of the Opera nearly 2000 times - more than any actor in the show’s entire West End run.
After training at the prestigious Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in London, John made his West End debut at the Palace Theatre in 1995, when he first joined the cast of Les Misérables. He has been closely associated with the show ever since, appearing in every London theatre in which the show has played, including the Barbican Theatre in 2010. In an online poll, John was voted the “Best Ever Valjean” and “Best Ever Performerin Les Misérables" by fans of the show and has appeared in special finales for the Les Misérables and Phantom of the Opera 2
