17. On My Own At An Empty Table I Dreamed A Dream... Then Died On A Chair Wall - From The Top! Les Misérables
Description
The only thing more rickety than a wall made of furniture in this week's episode of From The Top! are Mary and Steven as they fight their own dramatic French angst to get through a review of the iconic and, dare they say, (in an overly exaggerated French accent) superb spectacle that is Les Misérables.
Steven digs up the history of what was happening in France for the setting of this musical and shares some insight into Victor Hugo as to why he would write his second popular work about a June Rebellion.
Mary focuses on the major themes of this show and how the characters are affected by worldly forces, trying to understand what makes her so tepid about such a high-energy, very awe-inspired, production that Cameron Mackintosh has swept the world with.
So visit the Thenardier's Inn and sit a spell (just check your pockets before you leave) and listen in to some great discussion over a thief, a love triangle for the ages, a lady of the night and Rapunz-... I mean, Joanna-... I mean... her daughter, and a hyper-focused po-po. Happy Listening!

The pilgrimage through the desert continues. Will Steven and MAry find a well made of people and drink from? Will they encounter a burning bush and talk to it? Or will they be “thirsty” and “burn up” because they cast too sexy again in this week's Quick Cast? Happy Listening to this week's From...
