The singers were incredible and complementary of each other. The actresses playing the role of cossette and fountain resemble so much each other that made the audience believe they were the same. The only issue is on the upper circle if the actors go too much to the front of the stage, there is a game of people stretching their necks. well done to the engineers that made the scenario. it created a vertical deepness that was mesmerizing.

Phenomenal atmospheer up in the gods. Slightly limited view due to silly people leaning forward but the props, songs, performances, etc were phenomenal. Staff generally super friendly and polite except for some tweeny trying to tell me I couldn't get for a drink 5 minutes before curtains up. All in all, exactly the experience I've been hoping for but putting off for 10 years. PHENOMENAL!

Wow, I just went to see Les Misérables and it was magical!!!!! Music, show, costumes, theater, everything was excellent. I recommend it 100% to anyone who liked the movie or the book, because the stage show (musical) is brilliant. I speak and understand English very well; my mother doesn't, but even without that, since she knows the story by heart, she absolutely loved it!!

The show is spectacular! It's my favorite Broadway show because of its music and performances! The theater is very beautiful. Only in the back rows is your view cut off slightly because the mezzanine overhang blocks it a bit, as you can see in one of the photos I uploaded.

It was a great experience: the music, the singers, the scenery, everything was perfect. The theater has charm. We sat in the Grand Circle and the view was good. However, there is very little legroom and it is quite cramped. Not for people over 175 cm.

Adapted from Victor Hugo’s novel and reborn as a record-smashing musical and blockbuster film, this London classic resonates with dreamers, rebels, and romantics, now in its record-breaking 41st year after marking its 40th West End anniversary last October.

Olivier and Tony awards crown its success, with Cameron Mackintosh producing, Claude-Michel Schönberg composing, and a star cast led by Killian Donnelly.

Themes of justice, redemption, and love collide with its famous revolving stage and rousing anthems like "I Dreamed a Dream" and "Do You Hear the People Sing?".

Since 1985, it has been the West End’s longest-running musical, dazzling 130+ million worldwide and having been translated into 21 languages with performances in 53 countries.

With 392 costumes, 85 wigs, and seamless staging, this theatrical feat brings 19th-century France to life on a breathtaking scale. Book your Les Misérables London tickets today!

The story

Set in 19th-century France, Les Misérables follows ex-convict Jean Valjean, released after years in prison but forever branded by his past. Pursued relentlessly by Inspector Javert, Valjean rebuilds his life under a new name while encountering characters like Fantine, Cosette, Marius, and Éponine. As revolution brews in Paris, love, sacrifice, and justice clash in a tale that asks: who will rise when the barricades fall?

Critics reviews

“With a cast that never misses a note, the West End’s longest-running musical proves a haunting and thrilling inspiration.”

– The Guardian

“It whumps you in the solar plexus … sold by world-class singers, it still defies the critics.”

– Time Out
