Dame - it was my son and he liked it. The shots fired in the house during the barricade battle were too loud for him, but he sat very well for the 3 hours. He referred to Gavroche as that Tiny Guy and me loved Master of the House. He has insisted on listening to thr CD this afternoon, so I guest he enjoyed it more than originally thought.
Certainly less yougins in the audience as many other shows. We have a date for Wicked in April which also drags a little in Act II.
I know that they took a knife to it many years ago, but it is just about 30 minutes too long. The principals were good – Randall Keith was masterful as Valjean. Adam Jacobs – beautiful voice. Having not seen the production in 15 years – I found that the vocal style has evolved to a much more operatic style, yet less dramatic. The production values are still outstanding which is expected after billions of dollars and millions of audience members. And, Dame – two drinks before and one at intermission. These are season seats and I have it mapped out to be first in line at the bar at intermission.
Tody we had brunch at the Ritz-Carlton (which is now a Four Seasons). Very elegant and excellent food. Champagne was very expensive, but expected.
Addy – I saw the pommy margs listed as a special at one of the bars.
Happy Sunday to all.
