Les Misérables in Concert

Les Misérables in Concert

The SDSU School of Theatre, Television, and Film and SDSU School of Music and Dance combine talents to present Les Misérables in Concert, Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg’s world-famous musical creation based on the novel by Victor Hugo. Conducted by Robert Meffe and directed by Paula Kalustian, the production will run for four performances only, December 4-7, in SDSU’s Don Powell Theatre. Experience an epic-scale concert version of this classic tale featuring an accomplished cast of Musical Theatre MFAs, 50 members of the SDSU Symphony Orchestra, the 100-voice SDSU Chamber and Concert Choirs, SDSU Director of Choirs Patrick Walders as Javert, rock-concert quality lighting and projections designed by MFA candidate Chad Shelton, and Broadway veteran Ivan Rutherford as tragic-hero Jean Valjean. Rutherford has performed the role of Jean Valjean over 2,200 times on Broadway, national tours, and most recently at the Drury Lane Theatre in the greater Chicago area. Tickets are $20 for general admission; $15 for students and seniors. (ttf.sdsu.edu)
