The decision to stage the musical of Les Misérables Because we did not have the means to contemplate a large in a season when the world is celebrating the revolving stage, and while completely understanding the need Tom Hooper film adaptation is a brave one and I for a fluid staging solution in a story that travels nearly two commend Peter and Margaret Wills for being so decades, we decided to use this image of a towering city as a audacious. Live theatre offers audiences something motif for the monarchy verses the people, and put it on wheels film cannot. The audience plays a part in the so that it could be moved around the stage by the actors to storytelling, through an imaginary ‘fourth wall’ create the locations we required. We decided on quite a stony and that responsibility when embraced, brings feel to the production - hard surfaces, cold tones. Wherever great reward and emotional connection.

The obstacle with a show this celebrated I was initially drawn to the idea of directing Les Misérables is that there are so many previous performances available to because of the possibility of starting fresh, looking at the watch online, and once you have heard the cast recording half music and the text without any preconceived ideas of previous a dozen times, it’s very hard to find your own voice.

A French poet, novelist, and dramatist, he was also considered to be one of the most well-known French Romantic writers. In France, Hugo’s literary fame comes first from his poetry but also rests upon his novels and his dramatic achievements. Among many volumes of poetry, Les Contemplations and La Legende Des Siecles stand particularly high in critical esteem. Outside France, his best-known works are the novels Les Misérables – 1862 and Notre-Dame de Paris – 1831, known in English as The Hunchback Of Notre-Dame. He died in May 1885 and is buried in the Pantheon in Paris.

Victor Hugo

A SMALL REVOLUTION IN PARIS Les Misérables is not about The French Revolution - a common misconception. Hugo’s novel is set in 1815-1832, the French Revolution was in 1789. The novel’s story is “historical fiction” dealing with themes of the day and often refers to historical events. Centred around the life of Jean Valjean, the novel presents many characters we now know well through the musical. All the characters are fictional.

THE PARIS UPRISING (or “June Rebellion”) This rebellion by a small group of students lasted a mere 2 days! Almost forgotten in history, Hugo’s novel recalls some detail about barricades through the streets of Paris (there were several) and the unsuccessful attempt to reverse the “July Monarchy” after the death of General Lamarque. The story in Les Misérables is one of many similar rebellions which became known as “The July Revolution”.
