LES MISÉRABLES (musical)
In nineteenth century France a convict goes straight, a single mother goes on
the game, students go rioting, a publican goes thieving and a policeman goes
bonkers. All as a direct result of being spun on a turntable for three hours
every night.
This is the show's third home, and for the first time some of the orchestra
will be replaced by a synthesizer system. On the plus side, synthesizers don't
send "deps" in...and the monkey is keeping an open mind on what the
show sounds like in its new incarnation.
On 5th January 2010, the show celebrated it's 10,000th performance in London,
and on 8th October 2006 became the longest currently running musical in the
world.
