This is the hour! Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schonberg's Miss Saigon hosted its 25th anniversary gala performance of the musical in the West End tonight, September 22, 2014, featuring original stars Lea Salonga, Jonathan Pryce, Simon Bowman and other original cast members and alumni (not to mention screaming fans and plenty of champagne). Photos popped up first on Twitter, which we gathered here and now we've got more pics as well from onstage and backstage on the special night. Stay tuned for more coverage! Broadway next, please?

The celebration took place at the Prince Edward Theatre in London's West End. Good news for fans - the performance was recorded live and will be broadcast on BBC Radio 2 on September 28.

Cameron Mackintosh's acclaimed new production of MISS SAIGON has made its highly anticipated return to the West End, and is breaking box office records. Since Miss Saigon's sensational record-breaking run at London's Theatre Royal Drury Lane 25 years ago it has played in 300 cities in 15 different languages, winning awards around the world. This epic musical love story tells the tragic tale of young bar girl Kim, orphaned by war, who falls in love with an American GI called Chris - but their lives are torn apart by the fall of Saigon.
