Les Misérables - A Poignant Play5D Addison Ko Last Thursday, March 17, I watched a stunning and meaningful play Les Misérables. The play encouraged me to forgive others, as others forgive me. The theme of Les Miserables taught me that bad people can change if they really want to. One of the main characters, Jean Valjean, who was once a thief, ultimately turned out to be a beloved mayor and a responsible father.  The show started with some epic background music, which quickly helped me to start to concentrate. I think they did that on purpose to attract the audience.   During the scene where Javert and Jean were talking, a cart fell on an old man in the street. Everybody couldn’t help screaming, and, even though I couldn't hear a single word, the scene said it all. I have to say, the sound effects and the acting were phenomenal; solid proof that they have spent almost a year on intense rehearsals. Throughout the show, I was amazed at the swiftness of the scene changes by the crew members. Lighting helped to determine the mood and in the blink of an eye, the past faded, and the present arrived. Another memorable part of the play was the slow motion during the explosion where the insurgents defend their castle. The sound effects matched with the lighting and the slow movement of the actors. The whole thing was totally wicked. I must thank the school for providing this precious chance for me to learn English. Let us not take the chance for granted. If there is another opportunity, I will definitely visit the theater again!
