...I went to Les Miserables last year and can say without doubt in my opinion, this is the most wonderful musical I have heard of. I am basing that on the fact that this was a full house matinee performance which included stunning acts and sets.
I had never seen this show prior to going but having previously heard songs from it, I had already began to fall in love with it. We had wonderful seats in the middle of the dress circle (which cost in the region of £40 each for the two of us, a total of £80. Prior to the film starting we sat down and also had a couple of wine spritzers which cost in the region of £5 each - I wondered if this was going to be value for money??
The show was being viewed at the The Palace Theatre. We took our seats for a film that was going to last almost 3 hours! The film is about the French revolution, love...

Advantages: Emotive, expressive story based in France during the Revolution Disadvantages: None
...CD REVIEW:
This CD performance captures many emotions, and in the wonderful music composed by Claude-Michel Schonberg expresses the nature of the French Revolution very effectively.
Their are 2 CD's provided with this album. The tracks are thought provoking and musically complex.
The confrontation between Val Jean and Javert (Disc 1) brings melodic call and response between the two characters - a concept revisited throughout the performance.
Thenardier (Played by Barry James) is fantastic throughout - peforming Master of the House, and Beggar of the Feast. He is the comical character of Les Miserables, and bound to produce a few smiles when listening to this CD.
The story is seperated into the following tracks on the CD:
1. Prologue
2. Valjean's Soliloquy
3. Empty Chairs At Empty Tables
4. Every Day
5. At The End...

Advantages: Very dramatic, emotional music Disadvantages: Not everyones cup of tea
...After our school did a production of Les Miserables last year, i fell in love with the music, the pieces are all very dramatic and emotional and the storyline is very romantic which for me is perfect, i love the fact that the music is so sensual but it is definitely classical music with a full orchestra and very depressing (set in the time of the French revolution, death is a common theme although good triumphs in the end). You will enjoy this music if you are someone that enjoys an emotional tale of love and honour, you wont if you are a hard-core rocker into death metal. However, saying that, if any music is going to convert you, this is going to be it!...
