I have seen Miz 7 times...one in N.Y. and 5x in Montreal. The best was here in London. Performances were excellent and loved Javert of all the Miz's. The props were well executed and Javert's jumping was so believable in London. Left exhilarated and fallen in love with Les Miz all over again. When I get home I will bring up the 1st London recording from my IPod and will sing to it to my heart's content with beautiful memories of the sentiments I relived here from your show.😢♥️🙏. Mille Grazie 🙏

Les Misérables, the performance and the staging, was so exceptionally outstanding that even though my expectations were high, they were surpassed by all the elements used by the talented ensemble.\nTalented singers and musicians, beautiful lighting, impressive set design, timing, timing, timing.\nI already knew the plot and the music beforehand.\nThe production was impressive and moving.\nI was overwhelmed when I left.\nWarm regards,\nKirsten Borger, Denmark

The show is absolutely extraordinary! It feels almost like being at the opera, given the quality and performance of the singers and actors as well as the quality of the libretto, the staging, and a magnificent musical score! The acoustics of the Sondheim Theatre are excellent, and the view of the stage is great despite seats located at the very top of the upper balcony. An unforgettable show that I will see again with great pleasure!

It was my first visit at the Sondheim Theater. Altough the rows are very tight, the view was excellent. What amazed me most was the perfectly clear sound. The voices of the cast were great, the music simply beautiful. I do not consider myself a very emotional person, but Les Mis had me in tears at the end of act 1 and act 2. Loved every minute of it! A truly unforgettable experience!

I have previously seen a North American production of Les Mis, and let me tell you, this sow absolutely dwarfs it in quality. The set, the music, and the cheeky British humour really sealed it as the difinitive production of the show. Every single performer was on top game and I was weeping at the end of almost every song. I will be back!

Mesmerising to watch this again in London after my first time at the 1000th performance in 1988! The staging, and the ever familiar songs like Who am I?, I Dream a Dream and Empty Chairs at Enpty Tables enthralled me and were moving as ever! Every Les Miserables performance never disappoints!

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

These tickets can't be cancelled or rescheduled.

I absolutely loved Les Misérables in London! From beginning to end, it was an incredible experience. The theatre is so intimate, and the stage is wonderfully close. Sitting on the main floor, I truly felt like there wasn’t a bad seat in the house. You feel completely connected to the performers and the story. The interpretation was phenomenal, and the entire production was absolutely top-notch. The performances, the staging, the music, the voices—everything was out of this world. It was beautiful in every possible way. And I cried so many times! I cried because of the beauty of the story, I cried because of the beauty of the music, and then the final moments completely broke my heart. Watching Jean Valjean die, with the music and the emotion of that scene, left tears rolling down my cheeks. It was one of those moments you feel deep in your soul. This wasn’t just a show—it was an unforgettable experience. ❤️ I cannot recommend Les Misérables in London enough. It is truly top-of-the-line in every way. If you have the chance to see it, GO! You will not regret it!
