Les Miserables (Chicago) Tickets

This was my first time to see Les Mis - although I have always loved the music - and I cannot believe what I have been missing! I am a huge fan of musical theater and have seen many shows but this was by far one of the best cast I have ever seen. The singing was phenomenal, the acting was amazing and the set was so believable. I am so happy to have been a part of the many tears shed during the performance....

I was a great show, this was my second time see it, but I saw so much more this time.

this was my 4th time seeing Les Mis and it just keeps getting better! I absolutely love it.

I had the good fortune to attend Les Miserables on the Wednesday afternoon before Thanksgiving. It was outstanding! While it is not fair to compare the performer who played Valjean to Colm or Alfie, he was not disappointing. The Javert performer rivaled Phil Quast and was excellent. Beyond that, I believe each main character was as good as any I've heard before. The Marius character, usually merely adequate, was superb. Thenardier was fresh and new without overdoing it. Sam Barks is the ultimate Eponine, but this performer was right there, too! Thoroughly enjoyable to listen to, however, I screwed myself regarding the seating. I was taking my 19-year-old girl for the first time in 5 years, and my 14-year-old son for the first time. All that were available on the main floor were "obstructed view" seats. I called to ask if I could go to the theatre to see how obstructed the view would be (8th row, far right). The salesman wouldn't allow it, but he explained that I'd be able to see everything from there, except the far right of the stage: there were no true obstructions. He lied. A boom light was directly in our sight path, and we could see none of the back of the stage, which I'm sure had a scene of the runaway cart, and all the "City and Year" curtains. Also, half of the characters were not visible in "One Day more". Bummer! But, for $67 instead of $199 per seat, I didn't complain. (My son did!) Orchestra (literally) didn't miss a beat: wonderful!! Gavroche was hard to understand, but charming. The adult Cossette hit the notes effortlessly. Also, it was the best choreographed fight between Valjean and Javert after "The Confrontation" when Fantine dies. I also liked how the scuffle between Fantine and the "gentleman" who had her arrested was done. Great pace, acoustics perfect, seats comfy. Wish it were playing longer - I'd go again in a minute.

The period costumes added to the great performances of this classic. Individual performances were great and added to the cohesiveness of the entire play.

I, always, loved the music, and read the book in high school for Les Miz, but never got a chance to see it. The talant the kids have in the play is outstanding; I wish I had a talent like that. The whole thing was amazing from the props to the singing. It 3 hours longs but it went by like a NY minute.

This is an amazing show even after 25 years, a timeless classic masterpiece.

I hadn't see Les Miserables in 15 years. I loved it back then, but I am so glad I decided to take my daughter (age 13) to see this production. It was so much more than I remember. The voices and actors were absolutely amazing as I expected; but the part that really surprised/impressed me was how perfectly the sets and backdrops worked within the show. I would highly recommend seeing this production whether it is for the first time, or revisiting an old favorite.

This was my 13 year old daughters first Broadway show. I think that I have created an addict. Fantastic actors and unbelievable sets. Simply The Best!

My son and I thoroughly enjoyed the performance. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to see a great musical.

I have grown up with the Les Mis soundtrack. I acted in it, sang in it, but never saw it on Broadway. This was my first time so I am a little biased, but seeing it live didn't fall short of my high expectations as I thought it would. This show was a kind of catharsis, I wept through the whole thing because the visuals were fantastic and some of the cast just breathed fantastic life into the characters (Fantine was a huge letdown though. the girl has a beautiful voice but she is just not even remotely right for the part in my opinion). I would go see it a hundred more times if I could afford it, please please please take the leap if you are on the fence and an ardent fan like I am. It's beautiful.

This production of "Les Mis" returned to Chicago this November, and it is great, powerful theatre! The staging, lighting, sound are all superb, and the music and performances of all the lead actors and the entire supporting cast are strong, moving and fantastic. Do not miss this event....one of the very best musical theatre experiences I have ever had the pleasure of seeing!!

This was my third time seeing Les Miserables from Broadway. The cast was wonderful especially the actors playing Javert and Valjean. This version did not have the rotating stage of revivals past. The end had me crying as always. Some of the material may be difficult for young children. The children in the play did a great job. Overall, a wonderful show that I was happy to spend the money to see.

We loved it! I saw Les Mis twice, years ago when it first opened. This is the first time my husband and I are seeing it with our children. The singing was wonderful, the orchestra amazing, the backdrop and settings were perfect. The new addition of the computer images, like when Jean Valjean was in the tunnel, was terrific! I think the new changes did justice to the show, and it still brought on the sniffles and tears, even though we have the CD, the Anniversary DVD, and have seen it before. Great job! Our kids enjoyed it as well and loved the whole experience of going to the Theatre.

I give Les Miserables 5 stars. It was exceptionally magnificent. The story was great and at times I felt the emotion transmitted through the actors. I would definitely recommed it.

This is the third production I have seen of Les Miserables. First, I saw it in the late eighties at Auditorium Theatre--the best yet. Two years ago, at Cadillac Theatre, it was honestly a bit flat and seemed smaller in size, as far as the cast. But, maybe that was just the flatness of the performance. However, this production far exceeded the one two years ago, even though some of the cast were the same as in the former production. I took my thirteen year old daughter and we laughed and cried and got chills over and over! We loved it!

as everyone always says! Loved the music. Amazing singers! Glad I got tickets really early, as soon as Ticketmaster told me by email about the event coming to Chicago.

I have seen Les Miserables more than a dozen times over the years and I found this production to be outstanding and one of the best I have seen.

The production was amazing. Definitely recommended.

From beginning to end this production was spectacular. The one thing that I believe made this stand out from other performances was the depth of the quality of the troupe performing Les Mis. You expect great performances from the leads Peter Lockyer and Andrew Zarella, which you get( they were outstanding), but you are not quite ready for the amazing collection of voices from the remainder of the cast. A 5 star rating for whomever selected the performers for their roles-right thru the chorus. Also, I thought the scenery, especially the barricade was phenomenal. A Sunday afternoon well spent and worth every penny. A classic revival that scored in every category!
