August 25: Les Misérables
What is it about Broadway that excites our minds and touches our hearts? The music? The dancing? Of course! But sometimes a story is so powerful we can see ourselves in the characters. We share their joy. We understand their pain. In the end, we are inspired. You will be too – through guest performers and meaningful messages as we experience some of the most memorable musicals ever written.
