With West End theatres closed for the foreseeable future, Les Miserables is now the latest tragedy to be affected by the ongoing pandemic. It's been confirmed that all performances of Les Miserables: The All-Star Staged Concert to 28 February have been cancelled.

In a tweet on 20 January, they said "Due to the ongoing restrictions to control the spread of Coronavirus, performances of Les Misérables: The Staged Concert between 16th and 28th February have regretfully been cancelled."

Prior to this, all performances to 14 February were cancelled, with all shows between 16 - 28 February suspended.

Les Miserables: The All-Star Staged Concert reopened at the Sondheim Theatre on 5 December. Due to London entering tier three, performances were stopped a week later.

The cast of Les Miserables: The All-Star Staged Concert included Alfie Boe as Jean Valjean, Michael Ball as Javert, Carrie Hope Fletcher as Fantine and Matt Lucas as Thénardier. Rob Houchen plays Marius, with Bradley Jaden as Enjolras, Katy Secombe as Madame Thénardier, Shan Ako as Éponine, Amara Okereke as Cosette and John Owen-Jones as Jean Valjean on selected performances.

On a positive note, the full version of Les Miserables is due to open at the Sondheim Theatre on 29 May. Find out more about when West End shows will reopen in 2021.
