Les Miserables In Concert

What is Les Misérables in Concert?

Les Misérables in Concert presents Boublil and Schönberg's epic musical in a concert staging, with a full orchestra and all-star cast performing the beloved score. The story follows Jean Valjean, a former convict seeking redemption in 19th-century France, through revolution, love, sacrifice, and the relentless pursuit of Inspector Javert. From I Dreamed a Dream to One Day More, the concert format strips the production to its emotional core and lets the extraordinary music take centre stage.

Why see Les Misérables in Concert?

The concert version of Les Misérables offers a different experience from the staged production. With the orchestra visible and the performers often standing at microphones, there is nowhere to hide — every note, every emotion, every dramatic moment is carried by the voices alone. The result is often more musically powerful than the staged version, with the concert format attracting some of the finest voices in musical theatre. If you love the music of Les Mis, this is the purest way to experience it.
