The Reston Holiday Parade, an annual Friday after Thanksgiving tradition since 1990, will bring holiday cheer to the crowds as floats and performing artists march down Market Street.

This year, the Reston Players cast and crew for the January 2014 production of "Les Miserables" will march together down Market Street performing songs from "Les Miserables’" enthralling story of broken dreams, passion, sacrifice, redemption, and unrequited love.

"‘Les Miserables’ is such a beautiful story and we are thrilled to share a piece of that with the crowds during the Reston Holiday Parade," said producer Rick Schneider. "The cast and crew will amaze you with their talent and exuberance as they bring to life Victor Hugo’s masterpiece."

Andrew JM Regiec directs the Reston Players production of "Les Miserables" and Mark V. Deal is the musical director. "‘Les Miserables’ is a classic," said director Andrew Regiec. "This timeless piece of art will forever capture the hearts of the audience."
