Les Miserable

Larry has been working on his part as the villian in Les Miserable the last couple of months. We finally got to see the production last Saturday. It was put on by a company called Staged! here in the Portland area. It was awesome. I laughed. I cried. Larry was simply amazing if you don't mind a step-mother saying so. The people sitting next to us just loved him. When I told them he was my stepson, they said I must be so proud. They are right.

I just can't describe how much different this show was than all the others he has done. This cast was dedicated to making this work. It was a more professional show. All of the actors did a terrific job. Jean Valjean was stunning in his work. The entire show was in song. It was more like an opera but I could understand the words. :-) So, yes it was the best show he has been in by far.

And the day is not far away when Larry goes to the Czech Republic. He decided on Chicago for school and I am not sure how I feel about that. I know it will be great for him but he will be so far away. I know I am going to cry like a baby when he heads off to school. I love him like he is my own child. He is a fine young man. I like to think I had some influence there.

Well, gotta run. Love to all.

Don't mind the stepmother's bragging at all. It was good to get a report on the Grandson's exp[oits. We are glad that he's finally accepted us on Facebook. What a resume of his stage experience. And I'm not at all surprised he has chosen to go to Chicago for College.
