I am very excited that we will be seeing the new 25th anniversary production of Les Miserables. This is by far my favorite Broadway show. I first saw this show in 1989 in New York City. I went with a few friends and we purchased student discount tickets at the Broadway Theater. We sat way in the back on the balcony. Almost from the first note, however, I was totally captivated. I had seen many shows on Broadway, but this one was very different, and I drank in every note and word. The story is timeless and can speak to us today. I was lucky to see the show four more times in different venues as well.
Hopefully, after I see the performance I will post a small review. The show will be touring all over America, and you can check for a location close to you here.
In the meantime, here is a clip from the 25th Anniversary Concert in London.
Enjoy!
