Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: The new "Les Miserables" musical hasn't changed where it matters most. Strong vocals ride the wave of rousing Claude-Michel Schonberg music that seeps into your memory and won't let go. With songs that have risen to pop-culture status and an Oscar-nominated movie version still out there, the Victor Hugo saga of Jean Valjean's lifelong quest for redemption in 19th-century France can still sweep a theater audience, particularly a first-time audience, off its feet.

I think it is interesting that the release of the Les Mis film has created such hype around the anniversary. It is interesting to think how this could impact the Aladdin series with the recent release of the Disney series in Toronto. I think that this would be a huge profit maker for Disney as well as other shows releasing movies or making different variations of original shows. Even things like new soundtracks for the 25th Anniversary could be a potential moneymaker.
