We have seen this musical a number of times on Broadway and this performance was every bit as good (and we speak very little Spanish). Every element was superb. From the scene setting curtain when entering the theater to the atmosphere created with lighting and fog/smoke through out the performance to the props that all fit together and bullt the dark emotional atmosphere .of the time. And then there is the talent!!! Javert andJean Valjean with singing voices of range, depth ,and volume range.to say nothing of the talented voices of Fantine and Cosette----Just great. The rest of the cast were also very good in both vocal talent and acting---and the comic relief of the The Thénardiers---the ruthless bar keepers. The orchestra and condutor, the set design and set changes, the dance scenes, and -- Javert's spectacular bridge scene (combining traditional theatrics and high tech to create his fall)--- all the rest added to a great performance. Everyone involved in this production should be extremely proud!! We are so happy that we decided to attend. (We have been coming to Spain and Madrid for over 20 years, but this is our first time attending a professional musical / drama performance-----but this will not be our last)

This was one of the best musicals I've seen in my life! The singers had such amazing voice that fit their roles and the stage production was so cool to watch! Definitely different than what is typically done in the United States. I loved listening to the different lyrics in spanish because I have only heard the english versions. I loved it so much I went back a second time to see it! It was a major highlight of my trip if not my favorite thing.

I’ve seen Les Mis several times in London and this is the first time in Spanish. In this replica show, everyone was brilliant with Enjolras being a stand out - he didn't need a head mic, his voice just carried - and Eponine's final scene still really hit me hard! Excellent show, one of my favourites, now I need to go to Paris and see it in French!

An EXCITING show: one of the best I’ve ever seen. The orchestra is amazing, and the cast is phenomenal. I had never seen it before and was a bit skeptical. I can say with certainty that as soon as it comes back, perhaps in Italy, I’ll rush to see it again. 5 stars: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

The plot of *Les Misérables*, a pivotal event in French history, is a play rich in historical and human themes. The entire production is of excellent quality. The cast delivers outstanding performances. The costumes, the music, and the setting... fantastic. Highly recommended. CONGRATULATIONS.

Yesterday

I loved everything—the sets, the performers (especially Javert and Eponine), the orchestra, and its conductor... Overall, it was excellent. We had a glitch right at the end of the Barricade scene, and it was a bit lackluster (I missed the striking lighting effects over the dead bodies), but it was quickly resolved.

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.
