My iPod finally cooperated in letting me upload them to Twitter, and since the pictures themselves would take up tons of space in this post, I'll just put a link to them.

I went a long time ago and never got around to posting this, sorry!


Overall, the production was pretty good! Nowhere close to a professional one, but still enjoyable! The sets were nice, although they seemed hard to move, whenever the lights went out and we could hear sets moving, everyone was sure that the actors were going to die.
Now, on to the actors:
The guy who played Enjolras was pretty good. He could hit all the notes, which is more than I can say for the Enjolras in my school’s production. He didn’t really get the character at some parts, it seemed- he looked rather timid. That might have been stage fright, though.
Grantaire…well, the kid playing him made me want to flee the room crying. It was awful. Horrible. No. No. No. When he did try to act drunk, he failed miserably. All he could manage was a bit of tripping on a chair. And after Red and Black, he just acted normal. And somewhat revolutionary. He acted more like Enjolras than like Grantaire. Also, he carried the flag during One Day More, which just bugged me so much. And during “Drink With Me,” he was completely emotionless. He was the worst part of the whole thing, unfortunately.
The guy who played Feuilly was pretty good! (Also, he had a purple cravat which I thought was pretty good!) The rest of the Amis were pretty boring, and Combeferre was played by this tiny little kid with a really high squeaky voice, which was rather funny.
The girl who played Eponine was an amazing singer. She was pretty good at the part, too. She was overly lovesick but I didn’t expect much else.
The guy who played Marius was also a good singer, and also really amazing at acting. “Empty Chairs at Empty Tables” was awesome!
The kid who played Javert was horrible at singing, but his acting was really good. They had to cut out parts of “Stars” that he couldn’t sing, which bugged me a lot.
The girl who played Fantine was AWESOME. She seemed more like a professional actress than a high school actress to me!
Valjean was played by a freshman, but you would never have known if it didn’t say so in the program. He was incredible, and had by far the best voice in the whole show. His acting was awesome, too, and he hit all the high notes!
