Les Miserables is the story of four people. Bishop Myriel, Jean Valjean, Famine, and Marius Pontmercy, who meet, part, then meet again during the most agitated decades of nineteenth-century France. It also tells the story of the 1832 revolution and describes the unpleasant side of Paris.
Cameron Mackintosh’s wildly successful new 25th anniversary production of Boublil & Schönberg’s legendary musical, LES MISÉRABLES, with glorious new staging and spectacular re-imagined scenery inspired by the paintings of Victor Hugo. This new production has already been acclaimed by critics, fans and new audiences and is breaking box office records wherever it goes. The London Times hails the new show “a five star hit, astonishingly powerful and as good as the original.” The Western Mail says “an outstanding success – the best version yet.”
Through a panel interview and Q&A session, your students will gain an understanding of the skills and competencies related to specific career fields in the performing arts directly from Broadway professionals.
Join us on April 12 and introduce your students to a variety of careers and company members from the award-winning show Les Miserables.
Panel: Cast, crew members and musicians from the touring production
