"The metaphysical struggle between the former convict Jean Valjean and the pursuing policeman Javert is a very real and dramatic one. I always think the sign of any good theatre adaptation is when it sends you straight to the library for a copy of the novel. This does, and it sends you there singing loudly." Lyn Gardner at the Guardian

"At face value, Les Miserables might seem a dull and depressing subject for a musical, but the clever mix of humour, pathos, love and loyalty weaves a magical aura that stays with you long after the final curtain." - Lizzie Guilfoyle at indieLONDON

"What's really memorable is its sheer passion and pace. Doomy-gloomy through-sung musicals aren't usually my thing, but there are many moments that send shivers of excitement racing down the spine, others when it is overwhelmingly moving. The composer Claude-Michel Schnberg is an absolute master when it comes to the knockout power ballad."- Charles Spencer at the Daily Telegraph
