🔥 The lights dimmed, the crowd held its breath – and then John Owen-Jones unleashed that voice. The theater legend recently transformed a CGTN studio into the Paris Opera House during a spine-tingling performance of 'The Music of the Night' from Phantom of the Opera.
🎭 Known as the youngest Jean Valjean and longest-running Phantom in West End history, Owen-Jones proved why he's Broadway royalty. Stripped of elaborate costumes and stage effects, his raw vocals turned the intimate setting into pure theater magic – think 'Hamilton' meets ASMR, but with way more chills.
💡 Pro tip for musical newbies: This is like hearing Beyoncé's 'Halo' performed in its original cathedral. Fans flooded socials calling it 'a masterclass in emotional storytelling' and 'the vocal equivalent of dark chocolate'.
