Description

Join me for an in-depth analysis of Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables! You may have seen the musical, watched the movie, or memorized the sound track, but have you really explored what the author is trying to say? We will explore the background, setting, subtext, themes and symbols as we listen to the songs and discuss excerpts. As a performer, everything you do, think, and feel in every scene must be based on what is in the script. A solid understanding built through play analysis breathes vibrant life into the character you portray. Let’s dive into some “table work”!

* There will be no classes from December 20th- January 5th.
*Our Fall Showcase for ALL New Braunfels classes will be Monday, February 3rd at New Braunfels Bible Church.
