Imperial Theatre, 249 West 45th Street (betw. Broadway & 8th Ave.) NYC
Tuesday and Thursday @ 7pm. Wednesday and Friday @ 8pm. . Saturday @ 2 and 8pm [Tickets: $112] Tel: 212-239-6200  Romance, revolution, comedy, and tragedy overwhelm the audience as they
thrill to such classic songs as “I Dreamed a Dream,” “Castle on a
Cloud,” “Bring Him Home,” “One My Own,” “Do You Hear the People Sing,”
and “Stars.”
Set in France from 1815 to 1832 and based on Victor Hugo’s epic, Les Miserables
tells the heroic tale of the saintly Jean Valjean and his pursuit by
the intractable policeman Javert. The story journeys from Valjean’s dank
prison to the barricades of a student uprising and the sewers of Paris
as Javert relentlessly tracks down Valjean whose only crime is doing
good. There’s also the heartbreaking Fantine, the tragic Eponine, the
valiant Marius, the sweet Cosette, and the comically vulgar Thernadiers,
each swept up in this unforgotten spectacle.
The new staging features redesigned scenery based on paintings by
Hugo to illustrate his book as well as new orchestrations and new
staging by Laurence Connor and James Powell.
Running time: 2hrs, 55mins
