Les Miserables will celebrate its 40th anniversary in 2025. Whether in its full theatrical form, a blockbuster musical movie — which Mackintosh says is currently being digitally remastered and will be re-released later this year — or any of its spectacularly staged concert performances, there’s no denying audiences love “Les Mis” and keep coming back for more.

(The article talks about how certain scenes are staged in the James Powell and Laurence Connor directed production currently touring the US. It gives the impression that these changes are new, but this production has been around since 2009!)
