Les Misérables - School Edition - Gala Performance Saturday 15 August 6.45pm

ELTHAM College proudly presents Les Misérables - School Edition,

Join us for this Gala Event - your slightly more expense ticket includes a welcome drink (a beer or a wine for adults) and nibbles on arrival with a 7.30pm start for the show! There will also be refreshments at interval and beverages available for purchase.

Les Misérables School Edition is a powerful and sweeping musical that follows the transformative journey of Jean Valjean, set against the backdrop of 19th century France. This epic tale explores the intertwined lives of revolutionaries, outcasts, and adversaries, all striving for justice, redemption, and a brighter future. Adapted specifically for younger performers, this abridged version runs just over two hours while preserving the emotional depth, musical richness, and dramatic impact of the full Broadway production.

Please note: while this is the School Edition, the script retains the original’s mature and heavy themes. It includes some profanity and coarse language, references to sexual content including prostitution, and depictions of violence and death.

ELTHAM College is not putting an age restriction on attendees, but adult supervision is strongly recommended.

The role of Little Cosette will be played by:

Thursday 13 August, 7.00pm - Annabel Buys

Friday 1`4 August, 7.00pm - Mia Vandaele

Saturday 15 August, 2.00pm - Annabel Buys

Saturday 15 August, 6.45pm (Gala)/7.30pm (Performance) - Mia Vandaele
