Les Miserables at Queen's Theatre London

Les Miserables at Queen's Theatre London

The world's longest running musical, by Alan Boublil,
Claude-Michel Schonberg and Herbert Kretzmer
Directed by Trevor Nunn and John Caird

Although Puccini and several other nineteenth century composers considered turning Les Misérables into an opera, it was not until 120 years later that Alain Boublil saw Oliver!, the British musical based on the novel by Charles Dickens, in London, where the character of the Artful Dodger brought to mind a singing Gavroche.

Boublil and his long time partner Claude-Michel Schönberg transformed Les Misérables into the musical theatrical inspiration that has become almost as famous as the epic novel from which it was adapted.

The first stage version was produced at the Palais des Sports and seen by 500,000 people.

PROLOGUE: 1815, DIGNE, FRANCE
Jean Valjean, released on parole after nineteen years on the chain gang, finds that the yellow ticket-of-leave he must, by law, display condemns him to be an outcast. Only the saintly Bishop of Digne treats him kindly and Valjean, embittered by years of hardship, repays him by stealing some silver. Valjean is caught and brought back by police, and is astonished when the Bishop lies to the police to save him, also giving him two precious candlesticks. Valjean decides to start his life anew.

Les Miserables is the heroic tale of a man's life journey through France in the 18th century and his struggle to live through both injustice and revolution. Full of passion and courage, Les Miserables has been acclaimed the world over.


The first of Cameron Mackintosh's large scale musicals. Adapted from Victor Hugo's novel, Les Miserables is the epic tale of a man's life-journey through 18th century France and his struggle to live through the injustice and revolution of the time. It is full of passion and courage and has been acclaimed the world over.


" Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me? Somewhere beyond the barricade Is there a world you long to see? Do you hear the people sing? Say, do you hear the distant drums? It is the future that they bring When tomorrow comes...”
