Set in 19th century France, this musical tells the tale of Jean Valjean as he is released from unjust imprisonment. Love, uprisings, and struggles encompass the story of "Les Misérables" as Valjean breaks parole to begin a new life only to discover that redemption is harder to achieve with police inspector Javert on his tail. Both actors are overjoyed to be performing in “LES MISÉRABLES”. Clemons has been seen in many different theatre companies around the area such as the Florentine Opera, Skylight Music Theatre, Sunset Playhouse, and Milwaukee Opera Theatre and Backes can be seen singing with the Milwaukee Symphony Chorus.

Don't miss this powerful show that was on Broadway for 16 years and won a 2012 Academy Award winning motion picture adaptation!
