Theatre buffs
get excited - one of Broadway’s most beloved productions is coming to the
Triangle stage this month. For the first time in NC Theatre’s 30-year history, the
company will stage its own production of the epic musical Les Misérables, taking place Tuesday, Feb. 11 through Sunday, Feb.
23 at Raleigh Memorial Auditorium.
The HinesSight Blog is giving away two tickets to the Tuesday, Feb. 18 performance. You may enter below using Rafflecopter.

Les Misérables is based on the Victor Hugo novel about an ex-con and others struggling to find
redemption in the midst of turmoil in early 19th century Paris. I saw the touring production in Raleigh several years ago for the first time, and really enjoyed the show. I left my seat singing, "Master of the House." I have yet to see the Les Misérables movie though.
This N.C. stage version will include some local celebrities who are certainly Raleigh favorites. Les Misérables will
star Raleigh's own Lauren Kennedy as Fantine in a reprisal of the role she
played on Broadway, alongside her real-life daughter Riley Campbell, who makes
her NC Theatre debut as Young Cosette. Also starring in the production are
Broadway veterans Craig Schulman as Jean Valjean and Chuck Wagner as Javert. If
you love “Les Mis,” then you don't want to miss this all-star production!

Lauren
Kennedy is a bona fide Broadway star whose credits include starring as
the Lady of the Lake in Monty
Python's Spamalot, in Sunset
Boulevard with Glenn Close, in Side Show as Daisy Hilton, and
in Cinderella at New York City
Opera. Her daughter Riley, making her stage debut, is poised to follow in her
mother’s footsteps.
