You know it’s my favorite musical of all time…
But historically on this day back in 1832 the “barricade” fell during The June Rebellion.
It was a pivotal moment during The Paris Uprising of 1832.
Memorialized by Victor Hugo for millions to see on stage every time the curtain raises.
“Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums.
There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes!”
