ABOUT OUR PRODUCTION OF Les Miserables (School Edition)
Directed by popular musical director Simon Kaplan and choreographed by Katie Kimball, with musical direction by the astute Susan Sonnemaker, our production will bring together the compelling drama, threadbare costumes and rickety barricades that are demanded of any production of Les Miserables.

Conductor Marty Stoddard and the Oakland Civic Orchestra will help give the stirring music that is at the heart of this musical its nuance and color, and help our young actors to bring the songs and score alive. For in Les Miz, the music is a centerpiece, defining characters quickly and crisply, from the menacing sneers of Javert to the husky laments of Fantine.
