Sunday I went to a local production of the musical Les Misérables. I was one of the few people in America, I think, who had never seen it in any form, and I thought it was time. Besides, I had put an ad in the season program for Suzanne’s company, Luna & Stella, and wanted to pick up a couple copies.
Hard to imagine the Concord Players is only an amateur theater. They did a great job. And I guess the word has gotten around because they are sold out for the run.
I don’t love the story (having overdosed on French revolutions of all periods after reading A Tale of Two Cities once too often), and I think the dialogue in the musical is clunky. But I loved the performances and many of the songs, and I admired all the things that go into a good production — sets, costumes, sound, lighting, orchestra. The Concord Players are well known in the Greater Boston area for their production values, and they draw talent from all over.
Good job, Guys!
