Les Miserables 10th Anniversary Concert is back and better than ever. Oui!

And it’s all because one man stole a loaf of bread.
Rediscover the definitive concert performance of the world’s longest-running musical, now that BBC Home Entertainment brings you the newly remastered Les Misérables: 10th Anniversary Concert Special Edition. The top stars from the original London and Broadway productions, along with a 150-voice chorus and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, join together for the most magical gala performance of Les Misérables ever produced. Extra bonus features include never before seen interview footage with the creators of Les Misérables, producer Cameron Mackintosh, composer Claude-Michel Schönberg and lyricist Alain Boublil.
The entire 10th Anniversary Concert, recorded at Royal Albert Hall in 1995, includes all the songs you remember so well, from tear-jerking ballads ("I Dreamed a Dream," "Bring Him Home") to heart-stirring anthems ("One Day More").
Newly remastered with 5.1 Surround Sound, Les Misérables never looked or sounded better. In a nation in the grip of revolution, convict Jean Valjean is on the run. Hunted by the policeman Javert for breaking his parole, Valjean must leave his past behind and keep his vow to raise the young orphan Cosette. But with revolution in the air and Javert closing in, Jean Valjean has no choice but to fight for his life and sacrifice everything for the people he loves.
Watch and listen time and again to the magnificent, Tony-winning score as sung by stars forever linked with these roles including Colm Wilkinson as Jean Valjean, Lea Salonga as Eponine, Judy Kuhn as Cosette, Michael Ball as Marius and Alun Armstrong as Thenardier. Bonus Features include: Newly discovered interview footage with the creators of Les Misérables, Mackintosh, Schönberg and Boublil; the one-hour documentary Stage by Stage–The Making of Les Mis; a 12-page commemorative booklet and a replica ticket from the 1995 London after-party.
