Production Concepts
A Global phenomenon! A 21st Century perspective! Les Miserables in a contemporary setting! How can that be? And will it work?
Les Miserables has a resonance beyond the narrow corridors of time.
Sure, period costumes are pretty...but is it the pretty costumes that make us cry?
Out of the Blue will strive to bring the story to life and to make a real connection with it's audiences...
No more mop caps! Cosette no longer in puritan attire!
The inspiration for Out of the Blue's contemporary approach to Les Misérables is contained in the following quote from Victor Hugo describing Valjean's view of the pyramid of civilisation.
"...whenever he turned his head and endeavoured to raise his eyes, he saw, with mingled rage and terror, forming, massing, and mounting up out of view above him with horrid escarpments, a kind of frightful accumulation of things, of laws, of prejudices, of men, and of acts, the outlines of which escaped him, the weight of which appalled him, and which was no other than that prodigious pyramid that we call civilisation."
Victor Hugo
This amateur production of "LES MISERABLES" is presented by arrangement with Cameron Mackintosh Ltd and Warner/Chappell Music Australia Pty Ltd
