Les Miserables:

Just 3-1/2 years after ending its original Broadway run, Les Miserables is returning to New York in a new production. Most of the original creative team is returning; the cast is headed by Alexander Gemignani as Jean Valjean, Norm Lewis as Javert, Aaron Lazar (of The Light in the Piazza) as Enjolras (the head of the student revolutionaries), and Gary Beach (of The Producers) as the villainous Thenardier. The show, of course, is a musical based on Victor Hugo's novel, about a man who is jailed for stealing some bread. He breaks parole, becomes rich and prosperous and spends the remainder of his live doing good works for the less fortunate and trying to avoid capture by a zealous policeman.
