For my last musical blog i'm going to write about the phenomenon Les Miserables which is one of the most famous musicals and is also the longest running musical on broadway and the West End.
Les Miserables is full of highs and lows, and the magic of it is that the spectators are drawn into those highs and lows, feeling ready to cry for joy at some points and out of sadness at another point. This performance is magnificent, I cannot enforce this enough. The main characters each have their own little toils which they have to deal with and one finds oneself siding with a particular character. I found myself siding with Eponine wishing and hoping that she would end up with Marius. Eponine is one of the saddest characters yet she is the loveliest person as she shows us by how she protects Marius and Cosette from her own father.
This has to be the Worlds Best musical, keeping you thrilled from start to finish with tear jerking moments aswell as luaghs with the Thenardiers. I would recommend this musical to everyone as it is an experience. The music from start to finish is atmospheric and the songs arn't corney like most musicals can be bursting into song with cheesy queues. Based about the french revolution, the musical follows the story of a man Jean Valjean and his life.
