THANKS TO THOSE WHO WENT BEFORE.

THANKS TO THOSE WHO WENT BEFORE. When Annalisa and Nick first saw LES MISERABLES as children, they had the same reaction to the two young leads, Cosette and Marius. They thought that Cosette and Marius were bland and undeserving of the extraordinary efforts that the previous generation (Jean Valjean and Fantine) made on their behalf. When I watch LES MIS, I respond emotionally to what Annalisa and Nick responded to. I think of all the challenges that the generations that went before us overcame so that we can be here today. And I am flooded with gratitude. Thanks to all of them.
