A One Human Being, Potentially Comedic Performance of Les Mis

Living the Dream—The Rachel Browne Theatre

Alli Perlov might be Les Mis’ biggest fan ever and she is here to prove that with a one person version of all of Les Mis. This quirky romp takes us all the way through all of Les Mis in just 55 minutes. Alli has crazy amounts of energy and doesn’t take the source material or herself too seriously. Her show was full of puns and silly gags. I loved her one liners that she inserted that kept the show relevant for folks who maybe aren’t familiar with the source material. You don’t need to know any of Les Mis to follow what’s going on. That being said if you don’t like the original musical you aren’t going to love this show as it doesn’t stray at all. I did at times also find her hard to hear as well. Fast paced and high energy, this was a fun show to watch.
