This hugely popular stage show has recently been made into a
film and is now being chosen as a show for many school’s end of term
productions.
Based on Victor Hugo’s 1862 novel, Les Miserables is set in
1815 France during the French revolution.
It follows the story of convict Jean Valjean who is released
from prison and after being befriended by Bishop Myriel, starts an honest life
under a new identity.
The involved plot follows Valjean as he becomes a wealthy
factory owner and adopts Cosette, a daughter of one of his factory workers. As
she grows up and falls in love with a French student, the past comes back to
haunt Valjean amidst the backdrop of a political uprising.
We have a great set of costumes suitable for this show from
the poor urchins, the young Cosette and Gavroch, the prostitutes in the Thenardiers tavern, Marius
and the students in their tailcoats and rosettes, Valjean in his smart waistcoat and cravat and
Cosette when she becomes a rich lady.
