Les Misérables
Who Am I? I’m Jean Valjean.
Les Misérables
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
CLOSED: March 26 to June 1, 2024.
Alright, I have to admit— I went in to this production a little bit hesitant. The last time I’d seen Les Mis was over a decade ago and had the absolute privilege of seeing Ramin Karimloo (yeah, I’m not over it either tbh. Like, the man got a ten minute standing ovation for “Bring Him Home.”)
Well, I am prepared to eat my words because I ended up seeing this show twice. It was exactly what I wanted and needed. Nick Cartell is the perfect Jean Valjean. The rest of the cast is operating at the top of their game too. No notes.
FUN FACT: At the time of its closing, Les Mis was the second-longest-running musical in Broadway history. As of 2022, it remains the sixth longest-running Broadway show.
TICKET TIP: This show is BELOVED in Toronto and has not been there in ten years. Get tickets EARLY and FAST.
