Les Misérables - the World's Longest Running Musical

Cameron Mackintosh’s enthralling production of Les Misérables has been seen by over 70 million people, staged in 43 countries and in 22 languages all over the world. Les Misérables is now in its 31st year on the West End Stage and is officially the longest-running musical in the world.

Victor Hugo’s beautiful and timeless tale of crushed dreams, unreciprocated love, sacrifice and salvation is brought to life on stage with music and lyrics by Boublil and Schonberg (Miss Saigon, Martin Guerre, Marguerite), and is still as gripping and vital as when it was first staged all those years ago.

Alongside Cats, The Phantom Of The Opera and Miss Saigon, Les Misérables is one of Cameron Mackintosh's famed eighties mega-musicals. These shows broke the mould for musicals and went on to become the biggest-selling musicals in the world.

What Is Les Misérables About?

Jean Valjean, having broken his parole, is on the run, pursued by the tireless, merciless policeman, Javert. In a world where leaving your past behind proves hard, Valjean’s promise to care for Cosette, the orphaned daughter of factory worker, Fantine, sees their lives altered like they could never have imagined.

Set against the backdrop of revolutionary France, Les Misérables is a tribute to the enduring nature of love, forgiveness and the unbreakable nature of the human spirit.

The Music of Les Misérables

Les Misérables is entirely through-sung - that is there is no spoken dialogue in the show. It contains songs like 'On My Own', 'Bring Him Home', 'Empty Chairs At Empty Tables', 'Stars' and 'I Dreamed A Dream' which was the song that launched Susan Boyle during her appearance on Britain's Got Talent around the world.

The Movie

In 2012 Les Miserables was turned into a movie featuring Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Eddie Redmayne, Sasha Barron Cohen, Helena Bonham Carter and Aaron Tveit. The movie is one of the highest-grossing movie musicals ever.
