Les Miserables description

Les Miserables tickets – Treat yourself to an emotional rollercoaster ride!

This very special adaptation by Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schonberg continues thrill audiences night after night at London's prestigious Queen's Theatre. Join the revolution!

Les Miserables – fondly known as Les Mis by fans – is the world's most popular musical. Now approaching quarter of a century on the stage, Les Mis tickets are gold dust. What a gift. What a treat. What an experience!

It's a tale set in troubled nineteenth century France with a score including well loved tunes like 'On My Own', 'One Day More' and 'Do You Hear The People Sing?'. And since opening in London in October 1985 Les Mis has been a huge hit. We've flocked to see it through thick and thin. It has won Grammies in the US. The score has gone multi-platinum. And the video of the 10th Anniversary Royal Albert Hall Gala Concert has sold more than a million, making it one of the UK's best ever selling music videos.

Based on the heart rending novel by Victor Hugo, this stage version features lyrics by Herbert Kretzmer and music by Claude-Michel Schanberg. The original text is by theatre genius Alain Boublil and there's additional material from James Fenton. It's adapted and directed by Trevor Nunn and John Caird. And the costumes... wow!

Book now and join fifty five million other people who have laughed and cried their way through Les Mis!
