SUMMARY:Why is there a Roller Coaster in Les Mis? The Strange History of the Russian Mountains
DESCRIPTION:\nIn Les Miserables there is an actual canon scene where Fantine rides a roller coaster. How did a roller coaster end up in Paris in 1817? And why did this ride, one of the worlds first Roller Coasters, make a cameo in Les Mis?\n\n\nIt’s “Les Mis Meets Defunctland.”\n\n\nWe’re going talk about the earliest origins of the Russian Mountains, the fascinating history behind how they came to France, their many connections to the political turmoil of the time period, what they felt like to ride, why they were shut down, how they fell into obscurity, and why Victor Hugo included them in Les Mis.\nThis event will be recorded and will available following the con for two weeks from when it is first uploaded.\n\n
