A sweeping tale of broken dreams and unrequited love, passion, sacrifice, and redemption, set against the turbulent backdrop of 19th-century France. Jean Valjean's journey of grace comes to the Dock Street stage.
Set in early 19th-century France, Les Misérables tells the story of Jean Valjean, a former prisoner hunted for decades by the relentless Inspector Javert after he breaks parole. Against a backdrop of revolution and rebellion, Valjean seeks redemption, raises an orphaned child, and is swept into the fight for a better tomorrow.
With one of the most thrilling scores in musical theatre, including “I Dreamed a Dream,” “On My Own,” and “Bring Him Home,” this epic of the human spirit closes Charleston Stage's season on the historic Dock Street stage.

Since it opened in London in 1985, Les Misérables has become the world's longest-running musical, playing in more than 50 countries and 20-plus languages.
Victor Hugo's 1862 novel spans more than 1,400 pages, yet its songs like “I Dreamed a Dream” and “Bring Him Home” have become world-famous on their own.
Charleston Stage brings this sweeping story to the intimate Historic Dock Street Theatre, where audiences sit just steps from the barricade in America's first theatre building.
