I found myself in Sydney for work and looking for some way to spend the evening.
I had only ever seen live theater once before in my life (an opera in Vienna), and I enjoyed it well enough so I figured the world famous Sydney Opera House, but it was sold out.
Then I saw Comedian Dylan Moran was in town, but again sold out.
Then I had a choice to make, both Matilda the Musical and Les Miserables were in town. I was familiar with the story of Matilda, but had no idea what Les Miserables was.
I decided on Les Miserables, since it would be new to me, and was completely amazed. It kicked off what is now a lifelong love of theater and I’ve seen dozens of shows (including Matilda many years later in London’s West End).
Les Miserables. (Sydney, Australia in 2015.)
