Les Misérables 25th Anniversary Concert at the 02 Saturday, December 15 at 8 p.m. on WXXI-TV/HD No one could have guessed on October 8, 1985, when Les Misérables opened in London at the Barbican Theatre, that it would become a worldwide phenomenon. In 2010, the legendary musical celebrated its 25th birthday, and to mark the occasion, producer Cameron Mackintosh staged an extraordinary concert at the O2 Arena in London. With more than 500 actors and musicians — including Alfie Boe, Jenny Galloway, Katie Hall, Nick Jonas, Norm Lewis, Matt Lucas, Lea Salonga, and Colm Wilkinson – Les Misérables 25th Anniversary Concert at the 02 – includes the October 2010 cast of the long-running Original Production at London’s Queen’s Theatre and members of the original 1985 London cast. During the broadcast you’ll learn more about the production coming to the Auditorium Theatre in May 2013 and how you can get presale tickets to the show.

He hosted Morning Edition for 15 years.

As I look at these exciting changes and reflect on the work WXXI has accomplished over the past twelve months I would have to say December marks the end of a great year for WXXI. Our news department has covered issues that are important to you: elections, the economy and technology in upstate New York, education and the arts. We produced documentaries and series that spotlight Rochester and all it has to offer – including Frank Lloyd Wright’s Boynton House: The Next Hundred Years, The Xerox Rochester International Jazz Festival, and Garth & Wynton: The Project. We’ve supplied teachers and parents with tools to aid them in the instruction of our children, and supported students and their studies with Homework Hotline and Assignment: The World. We filled the airwaves with beautiful music, plenty of which was local to Rochester, including the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra series, Live from Hochstein, and Backstage Pass. This year also marked our long-term formal affiliation with the Little Theatre, which brought a new promise for us to not only serve the community on-air and online, but also on screen. And we kept that promise by bringing you films that were entertaining, enlightening and inspiring, many of which were followed by panel discussions that continued conversations beyond the screening.

These examples represent a small portion of what we have been able to accomplish with your support over the past year. As we look forward to 2013, we have aspiring plans for more programs and events to help better serve our community. Your end-of-year gift will represent a significant investment in those new and on-going efforts. I hope we can count on your support now and in the upcoming year.

On behalf of WXXI and the Little, we wish you a happy, healthy holiday season and a wonderful New Year.

Sincerely,
