It’s intricate vocal arrangements and soaring melodies that you’ll remember long after the curtain has fallen; it’s unmissable theatrical experience that will overwhelm you, enthral you, and tear your heart apart, and stitch it back together - forever changed.

An iconic story

Following the journey of French peasant Jean Valjean from hopelessness to salvation, Victor Hugo’s iconic 1862 novel inspired writers Alain Boublil, Claude-Michel Schönberg, and Jean-Marc Natel to create a unique theatre piece oozing with passion, heart, and emotion. Victor Hugo’s iconic 1862 tale about French peasant Jean Valjean’s journey from despair, his search for an absolution, love, and revolution made for the perfect foundation for a theatrical masterpiece - and that is exactly what writers Alain Boublil and Jean-Marc Natel, alongside composer Claude-Michel Schönberg {had in mind for their celebrated sung-through musical|were hoping for - something incredible to turn into a majestic theatre piece. The result was so much greater than they ever could have anticipated - not only did LES MISÉRABLES, since its English-version premiere in the West End in 1985, earned the titles of the longest-running musical in the West End and the second-longest running musical on Broadway, but has been seen live on stage by over 130 million people in 53 countries, in 22 different languages.

LES MISÉRABLES has been described as “an enormous, gorgeous bleeding heart” with every single production thereof a marvellous nod to the original. It is loaded with creativity, gravitas, and sincerity, featuring stunning harmonies that fall like magic on the ears, lyrics that stir and soothe at the same time, visuals that leave a lasting impact, music that oozes with power and emotion, themes that move, and unbelievable stagecraft that capture the heart of the story perfectly.
