Claude-Michel Schonberg News

Twintig jaar na de laatste voorstellingen In Belgie en bijna veertig jaar na de wereldpremiere in Parijs, keert de musical aller musicals terug naar ons land. Music Hall presenteert i.s.m. Cityprod een grootse, semiconcertante uitvoering van 'Les Miserables' op 22 en 23 maart 2019 in Vorst Nationaal. 'Les Miserables en Concert', naar de roman van Victor Hugo, is een adembenemende concertbeleving van 's werelds meest populaire musical. 28 topzangers en -zangeressen, ondersteund door een groot symfonisch orkest, brengen de prachtige muziek van componist Claude-Michel Schonberg tot leven als nooit tevoren. Indrukwekkende projecties en verbluffende lichteffecten vormen de decors. Onze eigen Hans Peter Janssens, de Valjean aller Valjeans, mag uiteraard ook niet ontbreken op het podium in Vorst Nationaal. Music Hall presenteert 'Les Miserables en Concert' in de originele Franstalige versie, met de teksten van schrijver Alain Boublil, voorzien van Nederlands- en Engelstalige boventiteling.

The 18th Annual WhatsOnStage Awards, held at the Prince of Wales Theatre, was a fast-paced ceremony with great performances and an enthusiastic crowd. The WhatsOnStage awards are unique because they are voted for by theatregoers online. While a few shows took home several awards each, no one show dominated enough to take the excitement away.

'Do you hear the people sing?' You will if you attend the 25th Anniversary edition of the 'Les Miserables' now on stage at the Kansas City Music Hall through Sunday, December 9. This is an absolutely credible recreation of the show that first hit London's West End theater district way back in 1985 and journeyed across the pond two years later. It has been running pretty much at full steam ever since.

As difficult as it is to fathom, some 27 years ago my first review of Les Miserables the internationally renowned musical based upon the iconic 1861 Victor Hugo novel about a reformed bread thief who is pursued over the decades by a relentless lawman in post-Revolutionary France was published, yet one thought remains consistent and steadfast. If faced with someone who claims to dislike musical theater, take them to see Les Mis (as the theatrical juggernaut is known throughout the world thanks to countless revivals, regional production, televised spectacles and one Oscar-winning film) for its epic storytelling, emotionally driven character studies and a lush and memorable score that is sure to win over the most hardened opponents of the art form.

The Broadway Tenors brought their celebration of the release of their self-titled CD, The Broadway Tenors, to Feinstein's/54 Below last night! BroadwayWorld was there and brings you photos from the celebration below!

Next week, Feinstein's/54 Below, Broadway's Supper Club & Private Event Destination, presents some of the brightest stars from Broadway, cabaret, jazz, and beyond, including Broadway Bound, The Broadway Tenors, A Scythe of Time featuring Lesli Margherita, Linda & Laura Benanti, Into Sweeney Todd's Woods, and more. Scroll down for details!

If you hurry over the Providence Performing Arts Center, you might still be able to catch one of the last performances of LES MIS. This show is a force of nature and hardly needs me to tell you how great it is, which is a good thing since it closes tomorrow night. Not my call, it's how the production company wanted it.

Casting for Cameron Mackintosh's acclaimed production of Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schonberg's Tony Award-winning musical phenomenon, LES MISERABLES, has been announced.

Multiple schools from central Pennsylvania contributed cast to the Belmont's LES MISERABLES. They're clearly the cream of the area crop, with great singing and acting chops to match the set.

You'd be hard-pressed to find a busier man in the industry than Vince Tanada. Now in his 16th year as the president and founding artistic director of the Philippine Stagers Foundation (PSF), he also serves as the company's creative heartbeat--writing and directing productions with a history of reaching far-flung viewers. Just when you think he's due for a well-deserved sabbatical, Tanada is back with a major theater project as though he was checking a mere deadline from his law office (yes, he's still an attorney). From the looks of it, there's no sign of the playwright letting up; in fact, 'Obra ni Juan' shows all the signs of another critical renown.
