I've come to realise that it's one of those shows that, through popular media, you know pretty much all of the songs, whether you like it or not! I know lots of people that know almost every word to 'I Dreamed A Dream', yet have never even heard of Les Misérables. It's the only show like it!
London: Harris x2, Adam x1, Kaine x1.

Booking Les Mis and Wicked for December this year, including BETM of course (will buy another tix when a friend has gotten his 'date' sorted.. yay Billy!)
Third time watching Les Mis. And 2nd time for Wicked. Fab shows.

I am also thinking of watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Read good reviews about it. :)
Anyone has watched it?

I saw "Les Misérables" last week for the first time (had seen the movie before) and I was very impressed, especially by the female characters! A fabulous show tells a great story - with a lot of fantastic songs! I`m sure I will see it again when I return to London.
London: 27 shows (Ryan 2* - my first Billy, Dean, Kaine 4*, Adam, Redmand 4*, Harrison 3*, Harris 2*, Tade 3*, Ali 2*, Matteo, Ollie, Bradley, Nat, Euan - my last Billy)

I see them as tied #1 = Equal, but reveling in their unique differences. Les Mis is painted with a huge vibrant pallet of colour and drama; BETM is more intimate, introspective and thoughtful. Both are fantastic. Vive le difference!

Here is a little quiz: How many Billys or Michaels have also played Gavroche?
