Yes, it will play in Quebec City at Le Capitole in time for the 400th year celebration of the city.
Marianne - It will be in French.

Leah Horowitz reprises her Broadway role as the grownup Cosette...
The Vista, CA production has already been mentioned, but here's a few more details (although they got the timeline wrong...)

Does anyone know if the cast for the Merry Go Round production has been set yet?

Dan Bogart is a curse on the role of Marius. I hope he does a better job of assitant directing.
I wish them all well... and that I could see some/all of them
I just want to add to the first post-
The production that is playing WofTrap in Vienna, VA, and K.C. Starlight is a 3 theater tour produced by Atlanta Theater of The Stars.
The Actor's Playhouse in Coral Gables, FL will helm a production in March-April 2009.
Should be an interesting production, because Actor's Playhouse is hit or miss with musicals.
Seaside Music Theatre, Daytona, Fl: June 12th-29th, 2008
--> Michael Shawn Lewis ("life long" Raoul in Phantom Of The Opera and Walter understudy in Woman In White) will be playing Jean Valjean

He and Hugh Panaro should have a Baby-Faced Valjean concert.

Haha... Yes, he'll probably need quite a lot of make up, but apart from that, I think he'll do a great job. Seven (!) years ago, he already played the aging Franz Joseph in Elisabeth and he passed that test with flying colors (http://www.michael-shawn-lewis.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=18&pos=12)
I haven't seen Les Miz since 1988 when I was 11 years old, it was my first broadway show and one of my most memorable experiences. :)
It would be a 3 hour drive to Walnut Theatre for me, but I am dying to see it again. Do you guys think this will be worth the trip?

I agree about the Walnut Street Theatre cast being amazing. I'm hoping that my scheduling works to make it down there to see the show.
Great! Thans incognito and Brian ... I did purchase tickets the other day so I am going June 28th. Orchestra and Premium seats are sold out most dates!
Can't wait!

The Seaside Music Theater production (Daytona Beach, FL) won't be happening after all:
"This letter is to inform you that Seaside Music Theater will have to cancel its 2008 productions - Les Miserables, Backwards in High Heels, Altar Boyz, and Miss Nelson is Missing because of a severe budget shortfall due to the loss of support from the Daytona Beach News-Journal, SMT's grand sponsor for 30 years. (...)"
Whole statement to be found here: http://seasidemusictheater.org
We've got Andrea McArdle coming out for this here in Ogunquit. Haven't heard about the rest of the cast.
"Ogunquit and Maine State Music Theatre are doing a joint production"
Nope, they are doing Le Miz AND The Producers on their own, as are we. Totally seperate.
