Les Misérables
by KidsActing
Feb. 13 - Mar. 02, 2014
Thursdays-Sundays
The legendary, award-winning musical tells about one man's struggle to overcome his past and the lives he touches along the way. Set during a nation's time of great turmoil, this epic tale of perseverance and strength of the human spirit will be performed by kidsActing’s advanced students.
'Do you hear the people sing?' This February the advanced students of kidsActing will be taking the stage to sing their hearts out as they perform the award-winning musical Les Misérables, based on Victor Hugo's legendary novel. Our unique family-friendly version of the musical is directed by kidsActing artistic director Dede Clark with musical direction by Noel Alford.
The story begins in 19th-century France when Jean Valjean, a convicted man, breaks his parole and escapes from the ruthless policeman Javert. His efforts to cleanse himself of his sins by adopting a dying factory worker's daughter will change all three of their lives forever as France enters a period of great turmoil and historical change. kidsActing's version of what many have deemed 'the greatest musical of all time' is a wonderful way to introduce the whole family to this famous tale. The emotional roller coaster of laughter, tears, love, loss and triumph is made all the more astounding when performed by youth. Les Misérables begins February 13, 2014 with a special benefit performance on February 21st at 7:30pm, with proceeds supporting Center Stage Texas, a nonprofit arts organization dedicated to serving East Austin youth.
