Les Misérables has revealed its new West End cast for the Sondheim Theatre, with performances beginning in July 2026. The summer line-up features Ian McIntosh as Jean Valjean alongside Oliver Savile and Mina Anwar in key roles, signalling a fresh chapter for the enduring production.

From 6 July 2026, Ian McIntosh will take on the role of Jean Valjean, with Oliver Savile cast as Javert and Mina Anwar as Madame Thénardier. The ensemble also includes Harry Hepple as Thénardier, Thiago Phillip Felizardo as Marius, and Jess Folley, nominated for a WhatsOnStage Award, as Éponine.

Lucia McLaughlin will portray Cosette, Joe Griffiths-Brown will be Enjolras, and Will Callan will assume the role of Marius between 17 July and 11 August. Stefanie Jones is scheduled to join the cast as Fantine from 7 September 2026.

The full company features a broad range of performers including Joanna Adaran, Madeline Banbury, Nicholas Carter, Tom Carter-Miles, and many others, rounding out the extensive creative ensemble.

Originally written by Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg, Les Misérables is based on Victor Hugo’s novel. The production at the Sondheim Theatre incorporates orchestrations by Stephen Metcalfe, Christopher Jahnke, and Stephen Brooker, building on John Cameron’s original arrangements.

Direction is led by James Powell and Laurence Connor, with design work by Matt Kinley inspired by Hugo’s paintings. Costume design credits go to Andreane Neofitou, Christine Rowland, and Paul Wills, supported by lighting from Paule Constable and sound by Mick Potter.

Projection effects are realised by Finn Ross and Fifty Nine Productions, with musical staging by Geoffrey Garratt and music supervision by Stephen Brooker and Alfonso Casado Trigo. The lyrics combine the work of Herbert Kretzmer and original French texts by Boublil and Jean-Marc Natel, with additional material and adaptations by James Fenton, Trevor Nunn, and John Caird.

The production recently extended its West End run until March 2027, with tickets now available for this enduringly popular staging.
