Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on April 21, 1980)

Happy Birthday, Hadley Fraser! From your unforgettable West End debut as Marius in "Les Misérables" to originating the daring Tiernan in Broadway's "The Pirate Queen," you've conquered stages on both sides of the pond. Your powerful voice and charismatic presence have made audiences laugh, cry—and occasionally swoon—earning you a permanent spot among theatre royalty.

May this birthday be filled with applause louder than Javert’s determination and celebrations grander than any pirate adventure. Here's hoping your next year brings even more standing ovations, memorable roles, and perhaps fewer barricades to climb over (unless you're into that sort of thing). Cheers!
