Les Miserables Honor Bishop Latymer Upper School

Victor Hugo’s hauntingly human novel Les Miserables tells the intertwined stories of his characters during the French revolution in a cocktail of drama and pathos- no wonder then, that its plot has stood the test of time. The book, written in 1862, was adapted into a musical in 1980, and again in 1985 (in English this time) by Cameron Mackintosh. His musical is still filling and delighting theatres, and has been doing so for over 30 years.
