Alright, so yes, today was my first day of my senior year in high school. That thought is incredibly scary to me. Who says I'm mature enough to be an adult in less than a year? Anyway, today was...okay. Not that I don't like school, but I was having a very nice summer. I really didn't want it to end. Not for a while at least. First off my schedule is a little weird. I'm not going to be able to take Drama II because it conflicts with some of my other classes, and I can't drop/change the others.… Continue

With tears in my eyes, I begin this, the final part of my Les Miz Review Series. Leaving the Bowl was very hard tonight, this being the last performance of this wonderful show. I'll probably have withdrawal symptoms very soon. But until then, my review. Tonight's performance began an hour earlier than it had the past two nights, a "Sunday Sunset Concert" I think it is called.

Hi again. Thank you for all the nice things you all have said about my reviews. I'm glad you liked them!!! First off, it was such a pleasure meeting all of the JB fans at dinner before the show.

It wasn't too cold, so I'm going to figure that my chills were from the show. That happened many times. One thing new, was there were video projections, so people in the back could see the actors and so the audience could see behind certain set pieces, as well as to provide some narration. It was amazing to s… Continue

Alright hi everyone. Sorry it has taken so long. I just got home. We had lunch after the show. I know you all are anxious for a review! For those of you going to see this show, you will love it. The entire cast and whole production are amazing. There are a few cuts in the music as I know it, but still, everything is wonderful. They work very well in the absence of a rotating stage. If you didn't know there was supposed to be one, it probably wouldn't be missed in the least. Okay, since I love Le… Continue
