Indian Village, Fisher Theatre & Les Miserables

 

Before rushing to the Fisher Theatre to see a broadway production of Les Miserables (my favorite play, mind you), we decided to quickly head to Indian Village and see the beautiful houses. Home to the biggest & oldest houses in Detroit, Indian Village is a must-see for every tourist or Detroit resident. http://www.historicindianvillage.org/

Next we went down to the Fisher. The Fisher Theatre is a beautiful, ornate theatre. Huge hallways lined with gold and chandeliers, polite ushers dressed all in fancy black, and plush red carpeting are among the many luxurious things we encountered walking in. Like the Fox Theatre, where I saw Oliver Twist with a friend, ornate decorations and details line the ceilings and walls. We saw Les Miserables on the mezzanine. They had simulation sets with amazing graphics along with traditional props and set designs. It was the most technologically updated play I've ever seen, and the cast was amazing. I cried several times. It was beautiful and I recommend everybody see it, no matter what theatre. http://www.broadwayindetroit.com/
