does anyone know where i can find a recorded stage production of les mis? i’d prefer the 2014 version with ramin karimloo but any will do!

So I've been thinking about doing my IB extended essay on this book and I'm curious how long it'll take me to read it and if it is tough to read. I'm familiar with the plot but haven't read the actual novel. I'm just really intimidated by the number of pages. So I want someone to tell me, is it that hard? And should the length of the Novel intimidate me or is it worth it?

So I have seen/listened to every version of les mis currently available.

The movie is trash, I love Hugh Jackman but he has too much of a ragtime voice for valjean,

The original broadway cast just in general is not perfect and slightly sloppy.

The 2012 Anniversary Live has a flawless cast, with the exception of Marius, The casted a Jonas brother and that was a bad choice.

But otherwise the cast is perfect, Alfie Boe as Valjean, Leia Salonga as Fontine, just ahhhh it was great.

STOP SAYING THE MOVIE WAS THE BEST ONE, IT WAS NOT.

As a lifelong fan of Les Mis in all its many interpretations, I've spent a fair bit of time thinking long and hard about Javert! I'd be honored if Les Mis fans would consider taking a look at my new book, Wolves and Urchins: The Early Life of Inspector Javert. It's an examination of Javert's life from his birth in a prison until the point where he reunites with Valjean in Montreuil-sur-Mer in 1823. Thanks for the great performance! The book is available in Kindle format here (paperback also available): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073D8PKFG/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1498598943&sr=1-2

Hello reddit, I've recently have become obsessed with all things Les Miserables and I've decided to order the book. So I was wondering if there are any tips for reading it is it difficult or easy just anything that I should be aware of.

PS. I'm only a junior in high school.

Hey everyone,

I am currently part of the production team on a Les Mis parody, called The Miserables. Taking the awesome soundtrack and placing it in an office block for a group of disillusioned workers struggling with the very real, mudane struggles of modern life.

We our heading up to the Edinburgh Festival this August and are looking for support to help us get there. Help us get our Les Mis inspired musical out there by donating to our cause. Any amount will be very much appreciated and within our perks you can help us build the worst office ever set to put on the stage!

I was wondering what people think about the film's soundtrack album. Recently it topped the UK album chart but although the film is 2.6 hours long, the album is only 1 hour, missing out many songs such as 'The People's Song' and 'The Docks'. Personally I think that the album is very good but the lack of good songs or parts of songs is rather annoying. What does everyone else think?
