Dallas Theater Review: ‘Les Miserables’

Set against the backdrop of 19th-century France, Les Misérables tells an enthralling story of broken dreams and unrequited love, passion, sacrifice and redemption – a timeless testament to the survival of the human spirit. Featuring the thrilling score and beloved songs “I Dreamed A Dream,” “On My Own,” “Stars,” “Bring Him Home,” “One Day More,” and many more, this epic and uplifting story has become one of the most celebrated musicals in theatrical history.

Les Miserables, is one of these plays that is filled with drama and comedy. There is profanity, sex, lies, love, deceit and death. It will have you sitting on the edge of your seat wanting more. The theatrics are wonderful. The singing is on point depending on what you like. There are children in this play who each did an outstanding job. You will cheering but you had better take some Kleenex as there will be tears. This play gets 4 stars.
