AUDIENCE COMMENTS
"We have been to three different performances of "Les Miserables" and
have enjoyed all of them but this one at The Stanley was the best. Our son
is going next week for the first time and I've told him to expect the best
and I know he won't be disappointed."
—Lois
"This is my third time seeing Les Misérables since the 80's! I forgot how
good it was. From start to finish, I was enthralled feeling every emotion:
I was tearful, electrified & gripped with hope for the cast of characters.
The singing, music & sound quality was superb. I might even see this
production one more time before it closes in August!"
—Elsa, Vancouver
"In a word - Fabulous! I took my Mom to see a production of Les Mis some
15 years ago at the Queen E with the brilliant Colm Wilkinson in the role
of Jean Valjean and can honestly say that your production was every bit as
good!
I was able to take my Mom once again yesterday - we both thank you for
such an exceptional performance."
—Sandra, Maple Ridge
"This is such a stunning show. I went when it first came out, in May, and
was so impressed that I took my sister for her birthday! We both enjoyed
it so much that I do plan on seeing it a third time-I can't get enough.
The music, the voices are all incredible and I so enjoyed this production.
This has been my first time to this theatre and I really enjoyed it. From
sitting on the third row, and then sitting in the balcony, I was really
quite impressed at how personal it was- good job to the actors and
actresses, I hope this production will come again soon!"
—Sarah, Langley
