I thought they ended Les Miz a few years ago?

But yeah, Les Miz was pretty cool. -CSM

I wanted to go see that at the local theatre after I read the book (Unabridged, baby!), but my parents didn't want to come with and/or take me.

Where are these lemmings going? The Super Nintendo Super Shire! Hop in line and follow them there!

***ZeldaGirl*** · 04-09-2006, 04:35 PM

You are so lucky!!! I hope it is a good show.

You know, I just read today that Wicked is coming into town soon... I am so freaking excited!!!

**Crazyswordsman** · 04-09-2006, 05:37 PM

^I didn't like Wicked, but everyone who's ever seen Oz needs to see Wicked. You'll probably like it.

I was actually lucky enough to see "The Producers" with Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick during its first month on Broadway.

Oh, and for those of you who haven't seen Avenue Q, BEST. MUSICAL. EVER. -CSM

I saw a performance of Les Miserables a few years ago. It was awesome.

I need to read the book again, because the one I read was a crappy abridged version that had cut about 700 pages, including key scenes and events.

Well, obviously, I love Wicked. And Avenue Q IS AMAZING!!!

***CaptHayfever*** · 04-10-2006, 07:56 AM

Since I can't get to NYC or Vegas and the show can't tour until the Vegas run ends; it's gonna be a while before I see Avenue Q. Wicked rocked, though.

Hope you enjoyed Les Mis, dude. I didn't, but I hope you did. I also hope it didn't make you wanna kill yourself for a couple hours afterwards.

And remember, "I'm-a Gary, number one!"

Okay, Les Mis is one of my new favorite musicals. So awesome. Randall Kieth played Jean Valjean and he has one of the best tenor voices I've ever heard. Ever.

The guy who led the Revolution fell off of the front of the barracade (scripted of course) when he was shot, and he was sprawled out laying on top of it with his eyes wide open. Javert was searching for Jean's body, and the stage rotated...and you could see the revolution leader on top of the red flag, spread eagle, upside down, staring at you...

I almost cried.

Fantastic musical.

Oh, and we're seeing Wicked on May 31st.

***ZeldaGirl*** · 04-10-2006, 08:30 PM

^Gah! I have to wait to see it until August-September...ish! Well, I'm glad you like Les Mis!

LUCKY YOU!!!! Think you can take some of us with you? I'll bring the snacks!!
