Incredible Performance with an Incredible Cast!
This production of Les Miz is incredible! Every role from lead to cast member is beautifully sung. The ensemble created such palpable emotion, you are moved to tears throughout. And the acting not only conveys deep feeling, but brings humor at just the right moments. The only downside to the experience was the seating at the Kansas City Music Hall. The venue is very beautiful, but the hall itself is dated and the seating does not allow you to see over the person in front of you. There is also very little leg room and many audience members had to stand to address cramping legs. This cast is truly remarkable and I would love to see them again. This was an amazing experience and I hope a recording is made with this cast! If it had been available, I would have bought it that night.
10 out of 5 stars
Excellent and beyond. Flawless. From the sound, to the lighting to the orchestra to the cast everything was exceptional and just seemed to complement each other from beginning to end. This was my second time seeing les mis. The first 30 years ago in Montreal. It was amazing back then but outdid itself today! Thank you for all your hard work everyone involved and bringing us into your world and the life experience the characters lived.
One of best Les Mis
My wife and I have seen 9 different productions of Les Miserables from Broadway to Schenectady. This was possibly the best. It seems to have taken the best from others and melded them into this show. Lighting, sets, staging, costumes and of course performance. Not a weak spot anywhere. All the leads were spectacular as were the supporting cast. The orchestra was perfect. We were “ blown awayâ€. And the audience at our performance was equally dazzled, the cast had us in the palms of their hands. Looking foward to a cast recording!!
Emotional and captivating…
I’ve seen Les Miserables 3 times in my life, last night was the best yet! The creamy and perfectly controlled voice of Jean Valjean was straight from the heavens and the gal that played Eponine was the same. Cast and set was 10/10!
Brilliant!
I have seen Les Mis productions on Broadway and in Chicago, and loved both of them. However, this performance was one of the very best shows I have ever seen in my life of many decades! Each soloist, from Jean Valjean, Javert and Fantine to the Thenardiers, Eponine, Cosette and Marius, to Gavroche, Enjolras, Grantaire and the Bishop, and to all those I am unintentionally leaving out, was the vocal epitome of the character. I feel absolutely enlightened by this performance.
Unbelievably Moving. Exceed expectations in every way.
This production was by far one of the best productions I have ever seen. From the acting to the stage setting to the vocals to the humor it was engrossing in every possible way. I was quite honestly very sad when it was over. I can't think of a single criticism of this show. I'd go back again in a heartbeat to watch it all over again. We bought our tickets last second, and paid handsomely for them. I feel like I got a bargain after watching the show. I'd pay double for that experience again.
