Fifty-five high school students from all over the Flathead Valley have been working together to present what is widely considered Broadway’s most famous musical, Les Miserables, running April 27-30 at the Whitefish Performing Arts Center. This production is part of the ATP Kids Educational Outreach Program.
“It’s a soaring, gut-wrenching, sweeping tale of love, loss and redemption,” says ATP Artistic Director, Betsi Morrison. “And this year had such an amazing roster of students, we decided to double-cast the principal roles to give more students an opportunity to shine. We couldn’t be prouder of the work they’re doing.”
ATP Kids: Les Miserables will be performed with two different casts of principal characters. The show runs from April 27-30 at the Whitefish Performing Arts Center. Showtimes are Thursday, April 27 at 7 p.m. and Friday, April 28 at 7 p.m. Saturday, April 29, there are two performances at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. and Sunday there are two performances at 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. The first three performances are with the first cast members and the last three have a different cast for the principal characters
Tickets are $10 for students and $20 for adults. People can call 406-862-SHOW or visit atpwhitefish.org for tickets and information.
