'Les Miz' proves a timeless musical, still with remarkable visual and aural splendor more than 30 years on.

The astounding part of the 'Hamilton' phenomenon has been the tremendous popular success of such a language-heavy show. In a cultural and political environment of violence and hollering, it's easy to forget that poetry and rhetoric – words – still matter. A lot.

'Bright Star,' as the cast recording makes clear, is Carmen Cusack’s show and she makes the most of it.
