Ok, how fun is the music circus?? We've decided we want season tickets. We were a little skeptical when they said that there was no bad seat in the house but it was totally true! (With the exception of the big headed lady in front of me...I mean I ALWAYS get that seat!) The theatre is not very big and you could see the actors and their facial expressions so well! They also come running in and out through the exit rows on the aisles (don't try to get up for a bathroom break before intermission like this one little old lady did, we thought security was going to take her out.....if Eponine didn't first that is). The singers were all amazingly good and I'm still smiling about it. I've seen Les Mis 3 times and this one was my favorite by far.
Word of advice: If you plan on eating downtown on Les mis and "Earth, Wind and Fire" night, make sure you plan to arrive at least 2 hours before the play starts. Even if you have reservations. Apparently people come early and then just SIT in the restaurant until the play starts causing all sorts of problems with getting your table on time. We were there for our reservation at 6:30 and didn't sit down until 7:20. Our food got there around 7:40 Can you say indigestion? I've never eaten that much PF Changs in 5 minutes flat. We ran/limped (long story why) 3 blocks to the theatre just as they were starting to close the doors.
Once we caught our breath we enjoyed 3 hours of being totally mesmerized. Jay you are so welcome for the wonderful birthday gift!
