There's nothing I enjoy more than a little Les Mis.
And now I don't have to leave the city to get my fix.
Now what would you say if today I started over?
Without a thing but this taped together four leaf clover
And I'll pretend like everything is already alright
And I'll run toward the sun till the castle's out of sight
I really don't understand why this is happening. I checked the calendar the moment I read that it was coming back, but it's definitely not the first of April yet.
I just think it's so sad that there aren't any better ideas to fill a Broadway theatre with than to resurrect an old show that is barely cold. It is the worst sign of a commercial theatre, and taking up a great space like the Broadhurst is just sad.
Hopefully it'll clear out for good before the 2007 Tony deadline. I'd hate to see it get extended by popular demand and run for a long time again. I love the show, but enough is enough.
