Justice versus conscience

Back on April 2009, Susan Boyle stepped out (broadcasted) on Britain’s Got Talent stage for her first audition, and electrified the world with her stunning version of “I Dreamed a Dream” from the successful stage musical “Les Misérables”.

This is a compilation of videos dating back to 2009-2012 where Les Misérables composer Claude-Michel Schonberg, lyricist Alain Boublil, and Producer Sir Cameron Mackintosh were moved and compelled to exalt Susan for embracing “I Dreamed a Dream” as a personal quest to tell her story of deep, emotional and painful memories.

This video also ties the stage musical about Susan’s life which has the same song title (IDAD), and was written and produced in the UK. This was created with great love and respect for what Susan endured during her difficult birth, bullying in her formative years, and her personal relationships with her family and friends in the small village of Blackburn, West Lothian, Scotland. This musical has a good mix of period music through the years, adding in touching/tearful moments and laughter. Also, duly noted in the musical was the blatant and gross abuse by the media press towards Susan and how she coped in the end and survived…

During the Spring and Fall of 2012, this successful stage musical had garnered many 4-5 star ratings in the UK, and has bookings set for Australia next spring 2013.

Hopefully, one day the “I Dreamed a Dream” stage musical will showcase in New York, Los Angeles, London, San Francisco, etc. because her story has moved many people in the world through her voice, and empathized with her adverse and triumphant story. No one deserves as much success as someone who’s humble, kind, generous and self-determined as Susan… and, in her own way, for someone who has survived years of emotional and psychological abuse.

It must also be noted … many have made thousands/millions of $… and, careers launched and made off the toil and tears… and, of course life-changing joy of a humble and shy, middle-aged lady from Blackburn, Scotland. Her presence was and will be felt wide and deep for many years to come.
