The Nominating Committee of the Independent Reviewers of New England has just announced nominees for the 2014 IRNE Awards.

Today, September 6 starts the second weekend of LES MISERABLES as performed by Fuhrmann Performing Arts in Covington, Louisiana. If you missed their performances last weekend at the Columbia Theatre in Hammond, I suggest you hurry along and get your tickets for the shows in Covington now!

Aside from being the very last regional production of LES MISERABLES allowed in the United States due to the show heading back to Broadway in the near future (huzzah!), this is a pretty impressive production.

Les Miserables is arguably the most popular musical in history and after the successful 2012 motion picture version, its fan base has only continued to expand. Les Mis is hardly a musical, but rather, a movement. Next to tackle this show of epic proportions is the Reagle Music Theatre in Waltham, MA.
