Concert-goers on the West Coast got a real treat this weekend, as a special concert based on the musical Les Misérables was presented at the Hollywood Bowl.
I mention it here because the concert featured Huntington's own J. Mark McVey, reprising the Jean Valjean role he performed on Broadway.
Of course, he wasn't the only performer - several other actors who have played in Les Miz were also featured. Concert versions of shows are becoming more popular, especially of shows that feature such wonderful music.
One of these days, a local group should tackle a similar project... (hint, hint)!

Amen, brother. I'm all for locally produced concert versions. I think they can be very successful.
There are a couple of clips on YouTube you can embed, including one of Mark singing "Bring Him Home." But I really like this one of "One Day More."
