Great staging. All the actors have wonderful voices and are very well-trained. The orchestra is also top-notch. The scene where they take the stronghold was my favorite. As for the theater: the seats get uncomfortable for such a long play. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The restrooms were clean and well-maintained. The interior architecture is remarkable. I found the extra fee for booking tickets through the website to be unacceptable. Especially since the entire process is handled by the customer. As I said: UNFORTUNATE.

What a show! The staging... spectacular, and the set design incredible! The final part loses a bit of its emotional intensity as it focuses on the characters individually. Of course, after the climax of so many previous scenes, maintaining the tension is almost impossible. My advice to future audience members is that you’ll probably enjoy the show more from the amphitheater seats: the view of the stage is definitely more complete and exciting, and as for the sound—the music is... mind-blowing. So, go enjoy it!

Simply a 10. But honestly, I’d give it a 20. I consider it the best musical I’ve ever seen, and this is the third time I’ve seen it in different amateur productions (this was my first professional one, and it was amazing). Congratulations to the whole team! The singing, choreography, songs, lighting, costumes, sets… everything was PERFECT!!! BRAVOOO!!!! P.S. The tickets are expensive—not affordable for everyone—but they’re worth their weight in gold. I’ll be back tomorrow.

Excellent from the moment we arrived at the theater—the staff working there were great, everything was just right, and it was very easy to get to our seats. The performance couldn’t have been better—the reception was top-notch, the orchestra was wonderful, the acting and set design were impeccable, the singers were incredibly professional, and the finale gave me goosebumps. Don’t miss the chance to enjoy this wonderful production.

Based on Victor Hugo’s classic novel and adapted into an Oscar-winning film, Les Misérables is a gripping musical drama perfect for history buffs and theater fans.

A multi-award-winning sensation with 8 Tony, 5 Drama Desk, and 4 Olivier Awards, seen by over 130 million in 53 countries—this is global theater royalty.

Featuring heart-stirring themes of justice, redemption, and love, with powerful staging and iconic songs like "I Dreamed a Dream" and "One Day More"—it is underscored by Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil.

Detailed staging, era-specific costumes, moody lighting, and fluid set changes bring the grit and grandeur of 19th-century France vividly to life on stage.

Book your tickets to Les Misérables in Madrid's Teatro Apolo now, and don’t miss the show critics call one of the "greatest musicals ever created" (Chicago Tribune).

The story

In post-revolutionary France, Jean Valjean is granted freedom after years in prison, but the past won’t let him go. Hunted by the unrelenting Inspector Javert, Valjean finds purpose in raising Cosette, the daughter of a woman crushed by poverty. As civil unrest rises and rebellion brews, fate weaves Valjean’s journey with others who dare to dream. But will hope be enough?

These tickets can't be cancelled or rescheduled.

Truly a masterfully done production. The entire cast was stellar and the props/sets were incredible. There also aren't really bad seats as I sat in the very back of the balcony and still had a great view. A bit of advice as the show is in Spanish, either speak enough of the language or know the lyrics and story beforehand if you don't.

I thought it was excellent. I recommend it to anyone who loves theater, especially those who have read the book, since that makes it even more interesting. The plot involving the uprising was very good, and the ending was very moving. In short, I recommend it 100 percent.

An excellent experience. The venue was pleasant, and the seats were comfortable enough. It wasn't too hot or too cold. The show was truly spectacular. I highly recommend this experience—I'd even say it's a must.

Amazing—this is the second time I've seen it. I promised myself I'd watch it again when my daughter—who was the same age as Cosette at the time—got older, and it was incredible. A dream come true! Thank you
