CHS Presents Les Miserables
“Les Miserables” is the much-loved musical based on the 1860s novel of the same name by French poet and novelist Victor Hugo. Set in early 19th-century France, it is the story of Jean Valjean, a French peasant, and his quest for redemption after serving 19 years in jail for having stolen a loaf of bread for his sister’s starving child. The show premiered in Paris in 1980.
