This blog just popped up in my suggested the day I entered the Come From Away lottery, is this a good luck charm?
absolutely! :D
Top 15 Musicals (as voted by my followers) ↳#3 - Les Misérables (165 votes)
One more dawn One more day One day more!
ALRIGHT LISTEN…literally pls listen (with headphones)…..you wanna hear valjean’s soliloquy mixed up with javert’s suicide and hear how they literally PERFECTLY come together at the very end?? you gotta press play
listen to the fucking genius of these two songs…listen to how these songs, with the same melody, the same power and force, that take place during the turning point in these character’s lives, perfectly encapsulate them. one song is the start of a new story and the other is the end. it’s the same song repurposed to communicate that every single person lives in this world differently, and that love of any kind is the most powerful fucking thing in this whole damn world
Things said at Les Mis rehearsals:
Choreographer: “Great, see? if everyone put as much energy into their solos as Javert does into killing himself, we’d be on the West End.”
All the prostitutes agreed that our Bamatabois was the World’s Most Polite Molester. We made him a certificate. He blushed.
Enjolras sashayed onto the stage for One Day More like he was on Drag Race.
Grantaire and Enjolras plotting for twenty minutes on how to make their scenes as gay as possible. The directors are very supportive.
Valjean: (mixes up lyrics ONCE)
Everyone for the rest of eternity: “MY NAME IS LOAF OF BREAD”
Marius is disliked by the revolutionaries because he’s the only hetero. that is our official Amis-approved reason.
*eponine dies* Enjolras: (goes into La Vie Boheme) DEARLY BELOVED WE ARE GATHERED HERE TO SAAAAY OUR GOODBYES, HERE SHE LIIIIIIIES.
Marius jumped up to the tech booth, fought his way past the sound engineer and a bunch of stagehands just to blast the YTP of Look Down on the speakers.
Enjolras: Break a leg, Javert! And an arm! And your spine!
Choreographer: Everyone thank the director for accompanying us, especially since he’s sick today, so he isn’t feeling okay.
Director (slumped over the piano keyboard) : Oh, I’m never okay. *stares off into the distance*
all i want to do is gif musicals | Come From Away (10/?)
any tech week horror stories? i’m in a production of les mis rn and tech week is.. very soon 😭
Actually, for us, tech week wasn’t horrible, at least when it came to the actual tech part. In the past it’s been awful so this was a welcome relief. But there were a few technical mishaps here and there…
It took us a long time to get the sound effects for the cart crash right. A ridiculously long time. Honestly, I’m still not sure how or IF we managed to pull off that scene, because I don’t think I ever actually saw it.
Us gals had to sing the chain gang part of the prologue backstage, which meant we had to have our mics turned on for that. Usually it worked fine. Unfortunately, there was one time that Enjolras’ mic didn’t get turned OFF again, so we briefly had her disembodied voice interrupt part of the prologue. 😬 Whoops.
One of the guns from the barricade was left on the bridge through the end of the second act, which wouldn’t be a huge problem because the audience couldn’t see it, but during the wedding we were waltzing up there. We had to avoid tripping on it or accidentally kicking it off the bridge, which is more difficult than it sounds.
For a long time, we didn’t have the transition after Fantine’s death completely worked out, so for a while Fantine had to carry on and off her own bedding, and she really just does everything around this house huh
Poor Enjolras! During the final battle she’s supposed to die waving the flag, but on the opening performance it just… wouldn’t unfurl… Bless her heart, she tried so hard to get it open, but eventually had to give up and settle for a pitiful little red triangle on a stick. She says she’ll be bitter about it until her dying day, but honestly, it added a level of patheticness to the scene that actually wasn’t too detrimental to the story.
I think I already mentioned this, but I (a fool) decided to wear slightly-too-big flats during Lovely Ladies and kicked one of them halfway across stage?? I don’t know how noticeable it was but I had to spend the rest of our dance number trying to covertly get it back on
That one rehearsal where Feuilly’s shoes were untied during The Beggars and he almost tripped down the stairs
During The Confrontation, Valjean is supposed to break off a chair leg and use it to threaten Javert or whatever. We had it set up so that the leg could be taken off and replaced without issue, but during the second to last performance he actually broke the chair
Setting up the barricade was such a hassle. Most of it was unattached furniture pieces, so they had to be carried on and off individually, and that was a lot easier said than done. Luckily we got a set routine established by the time opening night rolled around.
The mug Grantaire used during “Red and Black” didn’t have a bottom for some reason, so one rehearsal where we were blocking that, Enjolras sings the line “Don’t let the wine go to your brain!” Grantaire just held it up and said “I’m not even drunk”
I told you all about the freaking grapes, right? From The Beggars? It was the ask before this I think idk but that was a m e s s
It wasn’t really a tech thing, but during dinner one night the table broke and spilled our salads all over the floor
And of course, as rehearsals get later, the cast gets more and more sleep deprived and slap-happy, but I feel like that’s a topic for a completely different post.
Hope that helps some! Best of luck to you and your cast!! Even when things go wrong (because they will), you can still have a great show. You’ve got this!
but is les mis even les mis if ramin karimloo isn’t playing at least three of these characters
For those who havent seen the boot/have no idea what come from away is, explain this photo.

PSA TO WEAR A MASK IF YOU LIVE IN CALIFORNIA
Here’s the LA Times Article this graphic’s taken from.
there are two (2) types of people
people who stand up during screech out
and
Liars
so Paradise California is gone
i haven’t seen any noise about this on tumblr yet, but a fire has completely wiped out a small town in california.
they’re calling it the camp fire. over 20,000 residents have been evacuated so far, the last area estimates i heard were over an hour ago at 18,000 acres and its still zero percent contained.
this is the smoke from about 18 miles away from the fire three hours ago. if you know anyone near chico, paradise, oroville or durham california you might want to check they’re okay
UPDATE: 4PM FRI NOV. 9, 2018
the fire has completely walked over paradise, magalia, and much of the rest of butte county. it’s under 10% containment and moving towards chico, which was been mostly evacuated as well. it’s been documented as one of the top 20 deadliest fires seen in california. i know many of the people personally whose lives have been destroyed by this fire. my aunt and uncle’s home, of whom we’re very close to, was demolished last night, same goes for family friends and others who lived in paradise– which is completely gone. there are 5 confirmed deaths, several dozen missing people.
EVACUATION SITES STILL OPEN AS OF 1 HOUR AGO:
Butte County Fairgrounds (199 E Hazel St, Gridley, CA 95948)
Yuba-Sutter Fairground (442 Franklin Ave, Yuba City, CA 95991)
Glenn County Fairgrounds (221 E Yolo St, Orland, CA 95963)
Chester Memorial Hall (22 Gay Street, Chester)
HOW TO HELP/DONATE:
“Currently the best way to contribute is to make a monetary donation via the North Valley Community Foundation website.” -abc7news.com
“Supplies: Hope Center in Oroville (1950 Kitrick Ave Ste. A) is taking donations. Hours: Friday and Saturday 8 a.m. - 5 p.m., Sunday 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Needs: warm clothes, shoes, socks, coats (primarily for elderly residents).” -abc7news.com
the majority of those affected by the fire in paradise were elderly people. and having known paradise and magalia myself for years, it’s not a wealthy part of california. these people will need help, and lots of it.
if you have any questions, you can message me personally or seek information online or from the above references personally.
if you cannot help yourself, please spread the word and reblog. so many wonderful people are going through a terrible thing and need your help.

now with every transformation comes a tiny bit of risk. you gotta walk the plank and there’ll be blood or there’ll be bliss and it’s the same to be a newfoundlander - every person’s wish - so don’t be dumb, just take the plunge! go on: kiss the fish!

Suddenly there’s no one saying, “stay grounded.” Looking down, passing them by; suddenly there’s nothing in between me and the sky. Suddenly I’ve got an all female crew. The news talked, it made headlines across the world. Suddenly it stopped ⸺
