Reagle Music Theatre of Greater Boston brings its triumphant 45th anniversary season to a close August 8-18 with Alain Boublil, Claude-Michel Schonberg and Herbert Kretzmer's revolutionary pop opera, LES MISERABLES. The winner of nine Tony Awards (including Best Musical, Best Book and Best Score), this international sensation - seen in 42 countries by more than 65 million people - is the longest-running musical in the world.

Victor Hugo's novel, LES MISERABLES, was re-imagined in the early 1980's as a very successful musical (lyrics by Herbert Kretzmer (adapted from the French text by Alain Boublil and Jean-Marc Natel) and score by Claude-Michel Schonberg)) that has continued to captivate audiences. Although I wasn't especially fond of the touring show that passed through last year, The Muny's current production is a revelation. The scope of this work is an ideal match for The Muny's expansive stage, and I highly recommend this terrific presentation.
