No, no, no this is not a reference to Poltergeist, nor to the return of my friends David and Shimmy from their Mexican adventure! This is far more important!
After 16 years and 6,680 performances Les Miserables closed on Broadway in May of 2003. It is still, however, touring the US. Now, just a mere three and a half years later, it is set to reopen on Broadway in October of this year. It is being called a revival….boy, it’s a revival worthy of the bible belt.
Now, don’t get me wrong, Les Miserables is my favorite musical. I love the story and want to see it again. But, I wouldn’t call it so much a revival, as, oh I don't know, the return from an extended vacation. Cancun perhaps?
