Lez Miz producer Cameron Mackintosh said: “Since the very first concert performance of Les Misérables in Sydney in January 1989, this remarkable musical has proved to be as powerful and successful in its every manifestation. Whether in its original full theatrical form, a blockbuster musical movie, or any of its numerous spectacularly staged concert performances. Over the show’s nearly 40 years existence, it has also proved to be the launch pad for an extraordinary list of stars around the world, in many different languages and countries. This much anticipated world tour will be a unique opportunity for many of these celebrated performers to play their favourite roles for short periods in different parts of the world, so fans will get the chance to see their favourite stars (and mine!) in their favourite musical.”

Initial casting has been announced for the World Tour Les Miserables The Arena Spectacular opening in September 2024.

Les Miserables Arena Spectacular

The World Tour kicks off at the SAE Arena Belfast on 19 September 2024 featuring a cast and orchestra of over 65.

Les Miserables The Arena Spectacular World Tour

Cameron Mackintosh said today “The spectacular world arena tour of the Les Misérables concert has been a dream of mine for many years. With Les Mis’ 40th phenomenal year starting this October, there couldn’t be a better time for it to happen. A dream concert deserves a dream cast and I couldn’t be more thrilled to announce that the first UK leg of the tour, which opens in Belfast in September and is already more than two thirds sold out, will star Alfie Boe or Killian Donnelly as Jean Valjean and Michael Ball or Bradley Jaden as Javert, heading a cast and orchestra of over 65. Many other favourite Les Misérables performers, chosen from all over the world, will be announced in a few weeks’ time. After the UK, the world tour will play many cities across Europe, the Middle East, Australia, Korea, Japan and several other Asian cities before it returns to Europe and beyond. With the Les Misérables movie now being re-released in cinemas across the world in its completely remixed digital glory, sounding and looking better than ever, and with the London and North American productions still regularly breaking attendance records, Les Misérables is a true phenomenon – The People’s Musical – and the only musical ever to be simultaneously a hit on stage, screen and in concert arenas. Boublil and Schönberg, Herbert Kretzmer and I owe our inspiration to the genius of Victor Hugo’s masterpiece.”

Les Misérables UK arena tour cast and dates announced

Les misérables: the arena spectacular is coming this september.

By Adam Lawler

The cast of the upcoming arena tour of Les Misérables has been announced, with musical legends Alfie Boe, Killian Donnelly, Michael Ball, and Bradley Jaden leading the UK cast.

Kicking off its world tour in Belfast’s SSE Arena in September, Les Misérables: The Arena Spectacular will expand on the production of the popular West End production, with a new set created for larger venues.

The world tour comes as part of the 40th anniversary celebrations of the original English stage production, which has been running on the West End since 1985, the longest in its history.

“The spectacular world arena tour of the Les Misérables concert has been a dream of mine for many years,” the show’s producer Cameron Mackintosh said. “With Les Mis’ 40th phenomenal year starting this October, there couldn’t be a better time for it to happen.”

Who is starring in Les Misérables: The Arena Spectacular ?

On the UK dates, the role of Jean Valjean will be shared between Alfie Boe and Killian Donnelly. Taking on the role of Javert will be Michael Ball and Bradley Jaden

Boe, renowned for his remarkable tenor voice and performances on both the West End and Broadway, is set to reprise one of his most celebrated roles. Alongside him, Donnelly, fresh from his acclaimed portrayal of the same character at London’s Sondheim Theatre and his role as Combeferre in the 2012 film adaptation, will bring his own interpretation to the part.

Ball, a distinguished figure in musical theatre with a history of performances on the grand stages of West End and Broadway, returns to the role of Javert, offering his unique depth to the character. Jaden, celebrated for his previous portrayal of Javert at the Sondheim Theatre, will once again embody the antagonist, completing a cast of exceptionally talented actors for these pivotal roles.

An adaptation of the 1862 novel by Victor Hugo, Les Misérables follows the story of Jean Valjean, a French peasant searching for redemption after serving 19 years in prison for a petty crime. When he breaks his parole and attempts to start life anew, he is pursued by the relentless police inspector Javert.

Les Misérables announces nationwide 40th anniversary community performance tour

A chance for amateur groups to give their own takes on the classic shows!

The Les Miserables 25th Anniversary Concert, © Dan Wooller

Cameron Mackintosh and Music Theatre International (MTI) have announced a new UK-wide amateur theatre project, “Let the People Sing,” to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Boublil and Schönberg’s musical Les Misérables .

The initiative, running from March to August 2025, will feature 11 community-wide productions across the country. For the first time, amateur groups in the UK have been invited to stage the full show while it continues its successful run in London’s West End. The selected cities include Belfast, Birmingham, Brighton, Bristol, Glasgow, Leeds, Liverpool, Nottingham, Norwich, Porthcurno (Cornwall), and Swansea.

Each of the 11 amateur societies will act as lead producers in their respective venues, collaborating with other local groups to produce community-wide productions. These groups will receive support and guidance from the West End and international associate creative teams to develop their original, non-replica productions.

Open casting calls for all 11 productions will be announced locally.

Mackintosh explained: “The phenomenon of Les Misérables continues to break new ground, just as Victor Hugo’s novel has since it was first published in 1862.

“The world’s longest running musical was first made available to students under 19 (in an edited schools’ edition) in 2002, to mark the bicentennial of Victor Hugo’s birth.

“As we approach the extraordinary landmark of the 40th record-breaking year of the iconic musical’s London run, alongside countless productions around the world, we are delighted to invite 11 of our leading amateur companies in the UK to stage, for the first time, the entire show in their own productions. This will involve many hundreds of amateur performers around the country, becoming part of our own yearlong celebrations.

“The success of this much-loved musical was famously made by the public – not the early critics – so what better way to enjoy this unprecedented event, than Let the People Sing!”

Sean Gray, Managing Director of MTI’s London office said: “ MTI cherishes our amateur theatre companies.  They bring our musicals to the whole country, including to towns and areas not regularly visited by national touring productions.  They nurture and develop talent in a unique and invaluable way, as well as providing opportunities for everyone who loves performing and making theatre to be a part of productions on all the country’s stages. Many of the great shows live on in amateur productions, often decades after their initial productions in the West End or on Broadway.

Although we have been able to license thousands of productions of Les Misérables School Edition to schools and youth groups, the remarkable success of the West End production in London and on tour means it hasn’t been possible to offer the show to our major amateur companies. But for one year, we are thrilled to have this opportunity to invite amateur theatre companies across the UK to produce eleven local productions, which we hope will be genuine local community projects. We already know how much excitement the project will generate, and we are really looking forward to guiding everyone towards a great national amateur celebration of Les Misérables in 2025 to mark the 40th anniversary of the London production. Let the people sing!”

The project will be staged at the following venues and dates: Grand Opera House Belfast (4 to 8 March 2025), Grand Theatre Leeds (3 to 12 April 2025), King’s Theatre Glasgow (23 to 27 April 2025), Minack Theatre Porthcurno (25 to 30 May 2025), Theatre Royal Nottingham (27 to 31 May 2025), the Alexandra Birmingham (10 to 14 June 2025), Norwich Theatre Royal (2 to 6 July 2025), Liverpool Empire (3 to 5 July 2025), Grand Theatre Swansea (10 to 19 July 2025), Bristol Hippodrome (12 to 16 August 2025) and Theatre Royal Brighton (13 to 23 August 2025).

A starry arena tour production will commence later this year as well.

WHAT IS LES MISÉRABLES ABOUT?

“I dreamed a dream in time gone by, when hope was high and life worth living. I dreamed that love would never die. I dreamed that God would be forgiving.”

The year is 1832. Jean Valjean, a French peasant who stole a loaf of bread and ended up spending 19 years in gaol for his trouble, is living to regret it. Then he goes and jumps parole which doesn’t go down well with Javert, a particularly jobsworth cop who, with his unshakeable belief in the letter of the law, obsessively hounds Valjean until… well, if you want the whole story, read Victor Hugo’s novel. No? You prefer your French classics delivered in the form of a musical and theatrical triumph? Now you’re talking.

Because, thanks to the creative team that includes composer Claude-Michel Shönberg and writer Alain Boublil , and songs including One Day More , I Dreamed a Dream and Do You Hear the People Sing? that’s exactly what ‘Les Mis’ is.
