For the decades it has been in existence, the classic and magnificent musical Cameron Macintosh’s Les Misérables has been presented only on Broadway and authorized national tours. But when producers reached out to Sir Cameron and explained that this Highland Park Theater Company wished to present a production, with a portion of proceeds going to benefit the Highland Park Shooting Recovery Fund, he said Yes!

So with the challenge of such a large and powerful production responsibility accepted, it was time to make it happen!

Joining in this discussion are director Scott Shallenbarger, and Les Miz stars: Wesly Anthony Clerge (playing Jean Valjean) and David Pfenninger (playing Javert).

While the theater company does not have the resources of a Broadway production, Shallenbarger promises the impact and power of this Uptown Music Theater production will resonate with audience members in a significant way.

Only 11 performances…..do not wait to order tickets as they are already selling fast….

The production will be performed at Deerfield Performing Arts Center, 1959 Waukegan Road, in Deerfield. Tickets can be purchased at: www.uptownhp.org
