Set against the backdrop of 19th-century France, the musical follows former convict Jean Valjean, who breaks parole to build a new life, only to be pursued relentlessly across the years by the ruthless police inspector Javert. Valjean becomes a guardian to Cosette, the orphaned daughter of tragic factory worker Fantine, and their story becomes entwined with a group of idealistic young revolutionaries preparing to make their stand at the barricades of Paris. Featuring one of musical theatre’s most beloved scores, including ‘I Dreamed a Dream,’ ‘One Day More’ and ‘Do You Hear the People Sing?,’ Les Misérables is a sweeping story of love, sacrifice, redemption and the fight for justice, based on Victor Hugo’s classic novel.
