That's right... the show's run is coming to an end, and very soon.  Click the link above.

I guess it's time for this limited engagement to end.  What began as a 6 month run turned into what will be a 1 year and 3 month stint.  Not bad, given its initial intentions.  It's been a fun time, and I had a great time in it.

As the saying goes... All good things must come to an end.

I'm glad to have had the opportunity to see the production. It's an experience to remember for me. And perhaps, I'll watch it one more time before it closes.

Thanks for the heads up, Lea.

I was pretty shocked when I saw that online.

"Originally planned as a six-month limited engagement, the show "extended by an additional nine months due to strong box-office sales."

I guess it was good it lasted this long since it was originally planned as a limited run. Your inclusion in the company sure did make that extension possible. Anyway, the great Fantine has said "au revoir" and therefore, the company follows suit.

Au revoir et bonne chance la compagnie de Les Miserables!

Yes....all good things must come to an end, but let's hope this gives way to yet another memorable musical on the Great White Way.

I have the same idea with mizging. Les Miz had a good beginning and a good ending. That's great. Happy Halloween Lea.

This is so sad!! What will the other actors do?? As an actress I know how hard it is to start all over again. Such is the life of Actors. Hey Lea, I just have to say how wonderful your work was in Les Miz. Mr Hugo's book is so rich, it makes for a great story. I do hope you received the flowers I sent, you have opened the door for so many other asian actors. You should be very proud!

Does this mean you won't be spending Christmas in Manila?
