Les Miserables gears up for 40th Anniversary with an all star cast
Kitty, June 17th, 2025Beloved Les Miz stars, including Killian Donnelly and Bradley Jaden will return for a celebratory season!
A plethora of Les Miserables faces from the last decade will make a welcome return to the musical this autumn for a limited time only as the show celebrates 40 fantastic years in the West End!
From September 8th to November 1st, fans can enjoy the homecoming of Killian Donnelly as Jean Valjean, Bradley Jaden as Javert, Katie Hall as Fantine, Shan Ako as Eponine, Jordan Shaw as Enjolras, Beatrice Penny-Toure as Cosette, and Adam Gillen and Marina Prior as the dastardly Thenardiers. A gala performance will take place on October 8th.
Les Miserables first debuted in the West End back in 1985, with a cast including Colm Wilkinson, Michael Ball, Roger Allam, Patti LuPone, and Alun Armstrong. See our round-up of what the critics thought of the show back then.
Since then, it's gone on to conquer the world, with productions almost everywhere and an Oscar-winning film adaptation coming in 2012. For fans, the spectacular anniversary concerts and performances organised by producer Cameron Mackintosh are always an exciting opportunity to see old favourites return and we're sure this year's bash will be no different!
