Les Misérables originally took the stage in Paris in 1980. British theatre producer Cameron Mackintosh collaborated with the Royal Shakespeare Company to adapt the French musical to English, and the English-language version of Les Misérables opened at the Barbican Centre in London in 1985. After 19 years on the West End at Palace Theatre, the production moved to the Sondheim Theatre and continues to run today.
The musical’s success led to its opening Broadway production in 1987. Les Misérables won eight Tony Awards that year, including Best Book, Best Musical, and Best Original Score. Since then, Les Misérables has had two Broadway revivals, in 2006 and 2014. The musical has been produced in 22 languages and performed in 53 countries worldwide.
In 2012, the celebrated musical was adapted into a film starring Hugh Jackman, Anne Hathaway, and Russell Crowe. Directed by Tom Hooper, the film Les Misérables won three Academy Awards.
