This production of Les Misérables
has been decades in the making. For years we had tried to obtain the rights
to the musical but had been told a touring production will be coming to Cairo.
Only so often is there a cast able to sing and act the show. Last year the
opportunity surfaced again and we were blessed. A new high school version
had just been released. Even though this show is shorter, it is equally as
challenging for our students. The Performing Arts Department was very pleased
to finally present this production.
