Medley from Les Miserables Schönberg and Boublil

At the end of the day you're another day older, And that's all you can say for the life of the poor. It's a struggle, it's a war, And there's nothing that anyone's giving, One more day standing about, what is it for? One day less to be living.

At the end of the day you're another day colder, And the shirt on your back doesn't keep out the chill. And the righteous hurry past, They don't hear the little ones crying, And the winter is coming on fast, ready to kill, One day nearer to dying.

At the end of the day there's another day dawning, And the sun in the morning is waiting to rise. Like the waves' crash on the sand, Like a storm that'll break any second. There's a hunger in the land, There's a reckoning still to be reckoned, It's us who'll have to pay At the end of the day.

I dreamed a dream in times gone by When hope was high and life worth living. I dreamed, that love would never die, I dreamed that God would be forgiving. But the tigers come at night With their voices soft as thunder As they tear your hope apart, As they turn your dream to shame.

He slept a summer by my side, He filled my days with endless wonder. He took my childhood in his stride, But he was gone when autumn came.

And still I dreamed he'd come to me, That we would live the years together But there are dreams that cannot be And there are storms we cannot weather

I had a dream my life would be So different from this hell I'm living, So different now from what it seemed; Now life has killed the dream I dreamed.

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.

Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me? Beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see?

Then join in the fight that will give you the right to be free!

Do you hear the people sing?...

Les Misérables is a sung-through musical adapted from French poet and novelist Victor Hugo's 1862 novel of the same name by Claude-Michel Schönberg (music), Alain Boublil and Jean-Marc Natel (original French lyrics), and Herbert Kretzmer (English lyrics). It has been running in London since October 1985, making it the longest-running musical in the West End and the second longest- running musical in the world after the original Off-Broadway run of The Fantasticks. Set in early 19th-century France, Les Misérables is the story of Jean Valjean and his desire for redemption after serving nineteen years in jail for having stolen a loaf of bread. Valjean and a slew of characters are swept into a revolutionary period in France, where a group of young idealists attempt to overthrow the government at a street barricade in Paris. You'll Be Back from Hamilton – Lin-Manuel Miranda

You say The price of my love's not a price that you're willing to pay You cry In your tea which you hurl in the sea when you see me go by Why so sad? Remember we made an arrangement when you went away Now you're making me mad Remember, despite our estrangement, I'm your man

You'll be back, soon you'll see You'll remember you belong to me You'll be back, time will tell You'll remember that I served you well Oceans rise, empires fall We have seen each other through it all And when push comes to shove I will send a fully armed battalion to remind you of my love!

Da da da dat da dat da da da da ya da…

You say our love is draining and you can't go on You'll be the one complaining when I am gone And no, don't change the subject 'Cause you're my favourite subject My sweet, submissive subject My loyal, royal subject Forever and ever and ever and ever and ever

You'll be back like before I will fight the fight and win the war For your love, for your praise And I'll love you 'til my dying days When you're gone, I'll go mad So don't throw away this thing we had 'Cause when push comes to shove I will kill your friends and family to remind you of my love

Da da da dat da dat da da da da ya da…

Lin-Manuel Miranda's Pulitzer prize-winning transformation of Ron Chernow's biography, Hamilton, into a hip-hop musical is taking the world by storm. At the center of this groundbreaking multi-award-winning new musical is the story of founding father Alexander Hamilton, whose ambition drove him from the position of Caribbean outsider and bastard child to American war hero and George Washington's right-hand man. With heart, humor, and respect, Lin-Manuel Miranda's new musical breathes vibrant, colorful life into this story of America's founding fathers. "You'll Be Back" is the seventh song from Act 1. It is sung by Jonathan Groff in the show's original cast recording. Within the context of the musical, it is performed by George III of the United Kingdom lamenting the anti-royal machinations of the rebelling American colonists.

For Good from Wicked – Stephen Schwartz I've heard it said That people come into our lives For a reason Bringing something we must learn And we are led to those Who help us most to grow if we let them And we help them in return.

Well, I don't know if I believe that's true But I know I'm who I am today Because I knew you

Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes the sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better But because I knew you I have been changed for good

It well may be That we will never meet again In this lifetime So, let me say before we part So much of me Is made of what I learned from you You'll be with me Like a handprint on my heart

And now whatever way our stories end I know you have rewritten mine By being my friend

Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a sky bird In a distant wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you Because I knew you I have been changed for good

And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness For the things I've done you blame me for. But then I guess We know there's blame to share And none of it seems to matter anymore

Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes the sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? I do believe I have been changed for the better. And because I knew you… Because I knew you… Because I knew you I have been changed For good

Stephen Schwartz’s Wicked: The Untold Story of the Witches of Oz takes place before L.Frank Baum’s classic Wizard of Oz story ever began. Before Dorothy was even alive, two young girls met in the Land of Oz, became rivals, and then friends. One was born with emerald green skin, with a brilliant mind and a fiery spirit. The other was classically beautiful, with great ambition and incredible drive. The green-skinned Elphaba was ostracized by her family and by everyone at school. The beautiful Galinda was destined to be forever popular. Over the course of Wicked, we discover how these two young women became rivals and then the closest of friends – and how they ended up as the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good. Originally starring Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth, Wicked is an amazing vehicle for two powerhouse actresses, and also features a large, strong ensemble.

"For Good" is sung as a duet between Elphaba (the Wicked Witch of the West) and Glinda (the Good Witch of the South). The song is performed near the end of the musical, as the two are bidding each other farewell. Immediately prior to the song, Elphaba gives Glinda the Grimmerie and tells her that it is now up to her to continue Elphaba's cause. It is the climax and one of the most well- known songs of the show and is reprised as part of the show's finale.
