THE MOVING MASTERPIECE RETURNS
Based on Victor Hugo’s classic novel, Les Misérables is an epic saga that sweeps through three turbulent decades of 19th century France. It is also the story of one man, the fugitive Jean Valjean, who is pitted against the cruel and self-righteous Inspector Javert in a lifelong struggle to evade capture. When we first meet Valjean, he has been in prison for 19 years for stealing a loaf of bread. The harsh punishment was rooted in the belief that theft was a crime against the entire community and should be punishable by extreme means, no matter how petty the crime.
Les Misérables, which made its Broadway debut in 1987, is one of the most successful musicals in theatre history. The winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, two Grammy Awards and more than 40 other major theatre awards, the production reminds us that we are each part of the same human family and that, whatever our outward differences may be, our longings for individual liberty and peace are the same.
