Les Miserables

One of the biggest musicals ever to grace the stage is celebrating its 25th anniversary. This musical is none other than "Les Miserables."

The doors first opened for "Les Miserables" in 1985 at London’s Barabican Centre. After twenty five years, "Les Miserables" is officially the longest running musical on Broadway. And this wonderful musical is now back in Chicago.

"Les Miserables" tells the story of Jean Valjean and his rise from the gutter. Following his many trials and triumphs, this musical surely brings about every type of emotion one can face in three hours.

Even with expectations as high as the moon, this musical cannot possibly disappoint. Everything is excellent, from the superb vocals, to lighting, and new staging. This tale of the French Revolution is a musical that one cannot miss.
