Fall Musical 2026

Les Misérables School Edition

France 1815.

Jean Valjean walks free after 19 years in prison for stealing a loaf of bread, only to find that society has no place for a reformed convict. A single act of unexpected mercy sets him on a new path, but the relentless Inspector Javert believes people can never change, and he refuses to let Valjean's past stay buried. As the years pass, their lives become entangled with Fantine, a factory worker driven to desperation; her daughter Cosette; and a band of idealistic students who dream of a fairer world.

When those students take to the barricades of Paris, every character must decide what they are willing to risk for love, for justice, and for one another. Victor Hugo's story asks questions that still feel urgent today: Who does society fail to protect? Can compassion be stronger than the law, and is any person beyond redemption?

Our Upper School students have worked hard to bring this classical and powerful musical to life. So, get ready to feel for the downtrodden, cheer for love, and support the French students making sacrifices for freedom!

– Valerie Hauss-Smith, Director
