Les Miserables Baltimore Tickets

Les Miserables, the longest-running musical in the world, takes place in France after the French Revolution and follows the story of Jean Valjean, an escaped convict, and Javert, the police inspector who spends years pursuing Valjean in order to bring him to justice. This two hour and 55-minute show adapts Victor Hugo’s novel of the same name. Since its inception in the late 1980s, the show has been translated into 21 languages, has won numerous awards and has been seen in 42 countries.

Jean Valjean: A Character for the Ages

It’s impossible to think about Les Miserables without its central character Jean Valjean, a man who spent 19 years in prison and who spends many years after his release from prison being pursued by Inspector Javert. Many actors have brought the role to life, including Colm Wilkinson, who originated the role of Valjean on Broadway. Film director Tom Hooper cast Wilkinson as the Bishop of Digne, the first person to show Jean Valjean some humanity after prison, in the 2012 movie musical adaptation. However, Wilkinson wasn’t the only actor to play more than one role in the show. Actor Philip Hernandez has played both Valjean and Javert. John Owen-Jones has the distinction of being the youngest actor to play the illustrious role; the actor played Valjean when he was just 26 years old. In addition, Ramin Karimloo has appeared in the show’s Broadway revival in 2014.
