Producer Cameron Mackintosh said, “I am absolutely delighted to announce a wonderful line up of international Les Misérables stars who will be appearing during the grand finale dates of the Les Mis Arena World Tour in Dublin, Birmingham, the Royal Albert Hall in London and at Radio City Music Hall in New York during late spring and summer this year. Les Mis fans will have a brilliant choice of their favourite performers – though many performances are already sold out. Les Mis hasn’t played the Royal Albert Hall since the legendary 10th Anniversary Concert. The almost two-year run of the spectacular World Tour has played over 300 performances in 30 cities and broken box office records across the globe – don’t Miz out on the last remaining tickets!”
Tickets are on sale now!
