This Saturday I get to go to St. Louis to see Les Miserables at the Fox Theater! I'm really excited about it. This will be the 5th time I've seen it, but it has yet to get old. There are 15 of us going down on Saturday to see the 2:00pm showing. We're leaving at 9:00am and getting down there in time to eat lunch somewhere and then go to the musical. It should be a lot of fun. I think we do have one girl who wants to sell her ticket if anyone is interested in going.If you don't have any idea what Les Miserables is about, here's a brief overview...although it's hard to really be brief because of the complex and intertwining story line.
The Fox Theater describes it like this: Victor Hugo's epic tale with its incredible score by Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil, continues to thrill audiences with its story of crime, justice, redemption, revolution and romance. Les Misérables sweeps through three turbulent decades of 19th century France with the story of one man, the fugitive Jean Valjean, who is pitted against the cruel and self-righteous Inspector Javert in a lifelong struggle to evade capture.
Sounds pretty exciting eh? *grin*

It is a really good musical, and the Fox Theater is a great place to see it. Have a good time in St. Louis, I miss it.

Great show! One of my favorite parts in the "Do You Hear the People Sing" scene--it always gives me chills.
If you haven't...you also should be sure to go see Wicked in Chicago. It is truly amazing!
Oh...and be sure to see Mama Mia, Phantom, Secret Garden, Little Women, and Lion King if they ever come close.

I loved Mama Mia and the Phantom was great as well!
