Les Miserables


Les Miserables
Stanley Industrial Alliance Stage
Saturday July 19th 2009

For a very long time I have intended to go see this show. I have known all the music forever and have seen the 10th anniversary concert version, but never the official show, so when i heard that it was going to be performed by a group here, I just knew that I had to go. So I did!
I had a bit of a shock when I arrived at the theatre though. They were almost completely sold out! Huh! That's not supposed to happen! I ended up buying a ticket from a lady who couldn't use hers and even though it was cheaper than at the box office, it was more than I have ever paid for a ticket outside of London!
It turned out it was worth it though :-)
It was a very slick and professional production and Javert was exceptional! As was Val-Jean for that matter. It was great to see it staged in its entirety and it turns out my choreography was pretty close to theirs!!! I must be better at this than I thought!!!
