Very good show for our anniversary weekend. A little dark for some maybe, but what can you say about a long running show with fantastic reviews. If I was critical, the orchestra were a little too loud at times and the actors voices were lost. I am not deaf but missed some parts. Yes the tickets are pricey but the... More

Despite paying £87 or about $140 per ticket, I felt that I got every pennies worth. The cast was unbelievably talented. By far the most talented overall talent that I have ever seen in an musical, Broadway or otherwise. Most shows are still sell outs, I was able to find good seats on a Tuesday night.

I knew that Les Miserables is a very good musical but after reading the book I wasn't sure if it is actually possible to be adapted to a stage performance. But it is truly amazing! I would definitely go to watch it again and this time i will be getting premium tickets as well! Highly recommended

It was a bit miserable... Really. have you ever seen a seagull take a fish and chip lunch from a 6 year old child... That's Les Miserables.

The theater was pretty tiny and the seat configurations made it difficult to see the play through the top of the head of the person in front of me, I am not that short and I tried two different seats. The production itself was beautiful! The artists were amazingly talented, the set design inventive. I would highly recommend seeing this... More

From the start to the end it was a wonderful production. There are different productions to chose from but just go to the traditional one. Mid week shows are the best less people and cheaper tickets.

After our trip in April this has become one of my favourite musicals. All emotions are covered - comedy one moment, tears streaming down my face the next. The film is good but this show is amazing. Go see it!

Excellent production, great songs, lively cast. I would recommend this musical to anyone visiting London. You may need to book up well in advance though. really felt like a great evening out after the show finale.

this is my favourite west end show and I only have to hear the opening bars of the overture for the hairs on my neck stand up it has everything love, loss, comedy and deaths the acting is superb and even if the stars are not performing the understudies never fail to rise to the occasion I have never left...
