Love Les Misérables? Cameron Mackintosh’s "Les Misérables: The World Tour Spectacular" has officially extended its Manila run! Originally scheduled from 20 January to 15 February 2026, the show will now stay until 1 March 2026 at Solaire’s The Theatre.
Due to crazy high-demand, additional two weeks of performances come in response to overwhelming demand from audiences eager to experience this breathtaking production. GMG Productions CEO Carlos Candal said the show has struck a special chord with Filipino theatre lovers!
“From the moment we announced the tour, it was clear how deeply the show resonated with local fans,” he shared. “This is a unique version of Les Misérables — never seen before on Manila stages — and we’re thrilled more people will get the chance to see it.”
The touring production expands on the success of "Les Misérables: The Staged Concert," which captivated London’s West End crowds with over 200 performances. For Manila, expect fresh set and lighting designs, an international all-star cast, and a large live orchestra featuring both Filipino and international musicians. The full cast lineup will be revealed soon, adding to the excitement.
