Les Mis (aka The Glums) - bijou reviewette from a LesMis Virgin
Fri, 28 Oct 2005, 10:23 amKnew the story, didn't know the tunes, didn't have any previous productions to compare it with.
Wow! By the gods there are some talented singers in Perth. I don't have my program with me so I won't single out any of the talent. Oh alright, Shirley W gets a gurnsey because I know her. Loved the Marge Simpson fright wig, loved the funny, downright evil portrayal of a most unlikeable/hateable character.
Leece, who despite what some people think isn't my daughter, will no doubt give a more detailed review of the staging, which she compared to a series of tableaux from impressionist paintings, in her rambling review.
It didn't feel like 175 minutes and the second half flew. I can't urge you all to see it because it's sold out. And rightly so.
