Les Miserables at Cadillac Palace Theatre

From the moment of the musical's inception in the late 1900s, Les Misérables has risen up from an only-local theater classic running in Paris, France to one of the most highly-awarded and fan favorite shows in the eyes of local and international audiences. Over the past four decades that the play has been touring, the show has toured in 53 countries, in 22 different languages, and has been watched by over 130 million people worldwide.

In December, the musical’s next season arrives in a new location in Chicago, where the celebrated musical will be hosted in Cadillac Palace on Monday 30th December 2024. Cadillac Palace was purposefully created and constructed as the favorite play venue of Chicago, housing well-executed interior, from stage to seats, that is big enough to host a show of this scale, while also having adequate facilities that can be found within the theater.

Les Misérables revolves around the story of Jean Valjean, a parolee distressingly wanting to start anew after he gets away from parole. His whole journey, presented through two emotional acts, are staged with everything lyricized from the beginning to the finish of the musical. The West End musical being lyricized from beginning to end is a unique characteristic that this play has over other known Broadway productions, and is the primary reason why each minute of the play always stuns its viewers, depicting each personal struggle in every sentence or note sung.

It's quite unique and due to this method, Les Misérables is also full of memorable song numbers. Interestingly, despite the myriad of numbers that can be witnessed in the show, each cast member in the stage adaptation is able to be highlighted, with each individual performance given as much emotional depth as the rest. Not one single person who has attended Les Mis can forget Fantine’s “I Dreamed A Dream”, which carries with the song a powerful longing and has been covered without end by acclaimed artists in contemporary cinema. “Bring Him Home” also passionately moves viewers to tears all the time, revealing to us the very soul of Valjean's character in a single totally outstanding number.

Les Misérables will only be available in Cadillac Palace, Chicago for a limited period and on Monday 30th December 2024; tickets are now up for grabs via our ticketing partner through the links that can be found above this page.
