MY VIEW:
We went to the Walnut Street Theater to see this play. It was excellent! We saw it in NYC a few years ago and I loved it then also. The cast here in Philly was fantastic and did a wonderful job putting on quite a show.
SYNOPSIS:
This is the story of the peasant Jean Valjean—unjustly imprisoned, baffled by destiny, and hounded by his nemesis, the magnificently realized, ambiguously malevolent police detective Javert. As Valjean struggles to redeem his past, we are thrust into the teeming underworld of Paris with all its poverty, ignorance, and suffering. Just as cruel tyranny threatens to extinguish the last vestiges of hope, rebellion sweeps over the land like wildfire, igniting a vast struggle for the democratic ideal in France.
