“I’m delighted that 25 years after Les Miz originally
opened in London, the audience for this marvelous show is bigger and younger
than ever before,” said producer Cameron Mackintosh. “Over the years, I
have seen many successful but visually different productions, so it has been
exciting to draw inspiration from the brilliant drawings and paintings of
Victor Hugo himself, integrated with spectacular projections. The new Les
Miz is a magnificent mix of dazzling images and epic staging, driving
one of the greatest musical stories ever told.”
Based on Victor Hugo’s classic novel, Les Misérables is
an epic and uplifting story about the survival of the human spirit. The
magnificent score of Les Misérables includes the classic songs
“I Dreamed a Dream,” “On My Own,” “Stars,” “Bring Him Home,” “Do You Hear the
People Sing?,” “One Day More,” “Empty Chairs at Empty Tables,” “Master Of The
House” and many more.

Misérables orchestrations are by John Cameron with new orchestrations
