Les Miserables in London
Embark on a poignant journey through revolutionary France with Les Misérables. Holding the crown as the longest-running musical in the West End, the Tony and Olivier Award-winning Les Misérables has attracted over 130 million people worldwide to see it. This superb adaptation of Victor Hugo's book is a timeless tale of love, sacrifice, and redemption that continues to fill its home at the Sondheim Theatre.
Why you should see Les Misérables
- Les Misérables has been translated into 21 languages, including two Norweigan versions, six Spanish versions and two German versions.
- An eight-time Academy Award nominated film adaptation of the musical was released in 2012.
- Many big West End stars have performed in Les Misérables during its history including Kerry Ellis, Ramin Karimloo, Alfie Boe and Michael Ball.
What is Les Misérables about?
Les Miserables weaves a dramatic, edge-of-your-seat tale of revolution and romance and has been entertaining audiences since its opening in Paris more than three decades ago. It tells the moving story of the rebellious but reformed character, Jean Valjean, a man who is tormented by a relentless police officer called Javert in 19th century Paris as the French Revolution rages all around. It’s heart-breaking stuff, with romantic interest provided by the student Marius who falls deeply in love with Cosette. As Javert becomes ever more of a threat to the rebels, confrontations are inevitable. But love eventually triumphs despite everything...
‘The musical to end all musicals’
A surprising number of songs from Les Miserables have become hits in their own right, independent of the musical, and you’ll adore the show’s endless stream of beautiful ballads and moving anthems. Some of Les Misérables' biggest hits include "I Dreamed a Dream", "On My Own" and "Do You Hear The People Sing?" and "Bring Him Home".
With its combination of powerful music, compelling characters, and timeless themes of justice and redemption, experience a slice of West End history with a visit to Les Misérables.

Though the music and scenery was amazing, the acting and singing from some of the characters was not believable and interrupted the engagement and immersive experience. The seating of the theatre is not great. Although our seats had non restrictive views, other audience members did make it so by leaning forward or being out of their seats throughout the performance. For the first time in along time I couldn’t wait for the performance to be over, which is a shame because there were some excellent performances from some of the characters in the show.

Deeply moved by the showI witnessed an unforgettable show that shook me through with emotions between hilariously funny and breathtakingly sad. The acting crew and musicians were overall fantastic; sound, lighting etc. did their share to help bring the complex story come to life. I was surprised by the number of younger children brought to watch as I think the story is rather suitable for more mature teens and adults, and the interpretation is very intense. For me, this was clearly an early highlight of this year's UK travels.
