 Certainement un doit voir !, Jul 26, 2012 |
| reviewer: Yolanda from San Francisco |
| I saw the Broadway musical Les Misérables, based on Victor Hugo’s classic novel, an uplifting story about the survival of the human spirit. It was an excellent script, with powerful actors whose lungs never gave up; the re-imagined scenery inspired by the paintings of Victor Hugo, which included the integration of video during the chase scenes in the Paris sewers, were remarkable and lifelike. The songs were of many moods—angry, jubilant, romantic, and wistful. The whole audience were in awe and standing ovations were well earned by the crew—All in all, it was unquestionably a spectacular production from start to finish! Definitely a must see, for all, including children. __________________ |

 Very Dissapointing, Jun 10, 2012 |
| reviewer: P. Moore from Albuquerque |
| Very disappointed with the June 10 evening performance at popejoy hall in ABQ. The lighting was such that many key lines were sung by characters in the dark. Even when a character was lit up form 11 rows back it was very hard to see facial expression. In fact poor Gavaroche. Both of his key lines he was or was nearly in the dark. Use of only a spot on the right side caused dark faces when the turned left. Spots were also often late with characters rising into the dark with spot following. This was not what one expects from this quality of a show. Mic's on Thenardier and Fantine were too low so lines sung in a soft voice were very hard to hear. This really took away from great singing by the cast. Choosing to not use the rotating stage in the original performance I think really limited the set as well. The barricade entrance was very weak compared to the original show and having much acting with actors back to the audience was disappointing. Its too bad because the cast had good voices |

Amazing, Aug 04, 2012 |
| reviewer: AKS from San Francisco |
| I'm what you might call a Les Mis junkie...I own all the different cast recordings, I've seen the show over 10 times, and I've read the book (yes, the unabridged version) three times. My background with Les Mis being what it is, I'm a bit opinionated. In a word? Amazing. Still moving. I love some of the changes they made (speeding up the music, changing the special affects...). Do I miss the spinny stage? Of course, but in this case now, the actors need to depend on their ability to tell the story (and SELL it - which they do), and not depend on a gimmick. The SF cast brought their A-game to the show. The musical and acting ability of every one of them was top notch. I've seen Colm Wilkinson as Jean Valjean, and I know I'm committing Les Mis blasphemy here, but I honestly think Peter Lockyear was the best Jean Valjean I've ever heard. Go see it. Take a box of tissues with you, and enjoy this recreation of a timeless story. |

Best Show Ever, Nov 14, 2012 |
| reviewer: Larry H from Washington, District of Columbia |
| If you only see one show in your lifetime, it should be this one. I have the CD, DVD, and see it in the theatre everytime I can. Enjoy the show! |
