Review:
This show was Amazing. It was another trip similar to the Billy Elliot one only this time it was with my school. We got a tour of Chicago, had lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe, go to Navy Pier and see Les Miserables. When we got to the balcony an usher came up to my teacher and said a little kid was scared of heights and someone had to go with him to the main floor to see the show. At this point I’m thinking "OMG an orchestra seat. I said I would go with him to see the show. My teacher let me and I go right center back orchestra seats. I was so happy. The show was really good. I loved Betsy Morgan. She was draw-dropping as Fantine. The rest of the cast was great. If you see this show sit in the orchestra. I would give it a 10/10 :)
Stage Door:
