Grand Opening Celebration on Saturday, March 29th, to Launch Seven-Week Run
Clarksville, TN – Epic, grand and uplifting, “Les Miserables” has captured the hearts of audiences around the country, and its powerful affirmation of the human spirit has made this adaptation of the Victor Hugo classic an international smash-hit.
This spring, Boublil and Schonberg’s popular masterpiece takes the stage of the Roxy Regional Theatre, March 28th – May 10th.
A grand opening celebration with the cast on Saturday, March 29th, launches the seven-week run of “Les Miserables”. Following that evening’s 8:00pm performance, audience members will be invited onstage to socialize with the cast over champagne and hors d’oeuvres. Tickets are $50.00 (including the show).
Will Sevier stars as Jean Valjean, who has been released from 19 years of unjust imprisonment in revolutionary France, only to find nothing in store for him but mistrust and mistreatment.
Breaking his parole in hopes of starting a new life, he initiates a life-long struggle for redemption during which he is relentlessly pursued by police inspector Javert (played by Donald Groves), who refuses to believe Valjean can change his ways.
In the largest cast ever assembled on the Roxy Regional Theatre stage, “Les Miserables” also features Ashley Harris as Fantine, Lisa Carter as Cosette, Hannah Rose DeFlumeri as Eponine, Collin O’Connor as Marius, Ryan Cupello as Enjolras, Jama Bowen as Madame Thenardier, John McDonald as Thenardier, Ted Jones as The Bishop of Digne, Riley Jenkins as Gavroche, Bella Cargill and Kylan Elizabeth Ritchie as Young Cosette, and Adianna Cervantes and Lucy Wilkinson as Young Eponine, along with Ryan Bowie, Laura Donnelly, Michelle Foletta, Ted Kitterman, Emily Rourke, Matthew Smolko and Zachary Spiegel.
