If you enjoy a good musical, Les Misérables is now playing at the Bob Carr Performing Arts Centre, 401 W Livingston St., Orlando, FL 32801. Based on Victor Hugo’s classic novel, Les Misérables is an epic and uplifting story about the survival of the human spirit. It has been seen by nearly 60 million people worldwide in 42 countries and in 21 languages. Les Misérables is undisputedly one of the world’s most popular musicals ever written. It is only showing in Orlando for a few more days.

This production marks Cameron Mackintosh’s 25th anniversary production of Les Misérables with new staging and spectacular reimagined scenery inspired by the paintings of Victor Hugo. Producer Cameron Mackintosh remarked, “Over the years I have seen many successful but visually different productions, so it has been exciting to draw inspiration from the brilliant drawings and paintings of Victor Hugo himself, integrated with spectacular projections. The new Les Miz is a magnificent mix of dazzling images and epic staging, driving one of the greatest musical stories ever told.”

NY1-TV proclaims “this new production actually exceeds the original. The storytelling is clearer, the perspective grittier and the motivations more honest. Musical theatre fans can rejoice: Les Miz is born again.” The magnificent score of Les Misérables includes the classic songs “I Dreamed a Dream,” “On My Own,” “Stars,” “Bring Him Home,” “Do You Hear the People Sing?,” “One Day More,” “Empty Chairs at Empty Tables,” “Master Of The House” and many more.
