Cameron Mackintosh presents the acclaimed production of Boublil and Schönberg's Tony Award-winning musical phenomenon, Les Misérables. This brilliant staging has taken the world by storm and has been hailed as "a reborn dream of a production" (Daily Telegraph).
Set against the backdrop of 19th century France, Les Misérables tells an enthralling story of broken dreams and unrequited love, passion, sacrifice and redemption-a timeless testament to the survival of the human spirit. The magnificent score of Les Misérables includes the songs "I Dreamed a Dream," "On My Own," "Bring Him Home," "One Day More" and many more.
As good as it was when I saw it 20 years sgo. New set designs were good and principal singers amazing!!!
A wonderful show. Great sets and projected visuals. This is our third production of Les Mis that we have seen. We would definitely recommend this production. A great job done by all the cast.
We had box seats so the view was great, except for the young couple in front of us making out like teenagers. Not sure what happened with the audio portion that night, but it was indiscernible from the orchestra. A TelePrompTer with the lyrics displayed would’ve been helpful as you could not hear the words spoken above the background noises.
The music by the orchestra and the performance by all the actors was amazing. The sets were great and so smoothly exchanged.
After 20 years this show is still as heart warming as ever.
I could hardly expect this, because some other shows with BoC were not top notch performances (e.g. Evita several seasons ago). But this, this was very pleasant surprise (understatement). Choreography, acting, singing, casting, richness of the scenes, superiority of main characters. All aimed and delivered for full and extreme experience.
The show was amazing from the set changes to the music, sung beautifully by the whole cast. I would see it again in a heartbeat,
The scenery changes and the special effects were outstanding.
I wished we were closer to the stage. What a wonderful performance.
Poweful singing, transformative sets, connective characters. Les Miserables is timeless and ethereal.
This musical was well done. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the show. It was well worth the travel back and forth to Kingston. The staff at the NAC were wonderful as my wife required accessible seating and they were more than helpful. Thanks to Mike Gauthier (manager).
The production and performance was top notch. All the key songs were performed beautifully and with heart. The group songs were often inspiring although the female tavern owner struck an uneven note for me. The theme of this book and musical is very timely as we watch the rich continue to thrive leaving others behind.
Dissapointed. A story with no live chat...all but signing.
Bought two tickets for my daughters 33rd birthday it was as expected amazing decor breathtaking actors wow children amazing acting wow
I was very impressed with the NAC production of Les Miserables. The performances by all cast members were exceptional, especially the Javert and Jean Valjean characters. I had seen Les Miserables in London England two years ago and can honestly say that this production was comparable. Well worth seeing!
We laughed, we cried - we gave a standing ovation at the end. Wonderful!
very good we would see it again when it comes back to Winnipeg
Les Misérables. Always a great show. Will go again...
Fabulous & beautifully staged; a memorable & worthwhile experience. Some moving moments.
Amazing performance from the singing, musical numbers, stage management, costumes, set designs and live orchestra. Absolutely stunning and memorable production! I am still speechless!!!
