Go Back Les Misérables

Seen by over 130 million people worldwide in 53 countries and 22 languages, Les Misérables has been hailed as “one of the greatest musicals ever created.” (Chicago Tribune).

Set against the backdrop of 19th century France, Les Misérables tells Victor Hugo's enthralling story of broken dreams and unrequited love, passion, sacrifice, and redemption—a timeless testament to the survival of the human spirit. This epic and uplifting story has become one of the most celebrated musicals in theatrical history.

The magnificent score of Les Misérables includes the songs “I Dreamed a Dream,” “On My Own,” “Bring Him Home,” “One Day More,” “Master of the House"  and many more.
