SOME PHOTOS OF THE FUTURE "LES MISÉRABLES" PRODUCTION IN PARIS
(the actual cast of the production was the one that appeared at the Olympics opening ceremony)
Concept art of the scenography (I love that it seems really different to the ones in Broadway and West End, can't wait to see it in action)
Costume designs (IM SCREAMING, LOOK AT THE REVOLUTIONARIES ALL WEARING THEIR BELOVED PATRIA's COLOR PALETTE -we all know who took that fashion choice-)
THERE WILL BE ONLY 50 PERFORMANCES IF I UNDERSTOOD CORRECTLY, I FEEL SO LUCKY TO BE ONE OF THE FEW PEOPLE THAT WILL BE ABLE TO WATCH IT LIVE.
cosette’s “happy ending” is bullshit and she deserves a handwritten apology from victor hugo himself for excusing how marius indirectly led to her father’s death because both her father and husband insisted on treating her like a helpless little girl instead of telling her the truth about HER OWN PAST. HER OWN FAMILY. HER OWN TRAUMA.
I love valjean. I don’t (always) hate marius. they are complex characters and products of their time. but dear god. justice for cosette.
The REAL reason Les Mis is a great book is because it has the duality of you being able to randomly open it to any page and find the most beautiful-soul-crushing-poetic-timeless-eye-opening sentence ever
but also Victor Hugo consciously chose to make every single character is the lamest most socially inept mess and awkward crazy dork you've ever seen and it's great.
can’t believe today is the 192nd anniversary of when jean valjean decided to bring marius back to his house to take care of him with cosette while gillenormand died alone in his mansion!! 🥰🤗
