A musical journey comes to White Plains

Theatrical (and more recently silver-screen) productions of a classic 19th-century tale have captivated audiences around the world for more than three decades.

And now, “Les Misérables” – Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg’s original Broadway musical, with lyrics by Herbert Kretzmer – is gracing the stage in White Plains.

The White Plains Performing Arts Center is offering up the classic story, again based on Victor Hugo’s epic novel, with a sweeping production that features a 14-piece orchestra and a cast of dozens.

The show is directed by Jeremy Quinn, WPPAC’s producing artistic director and director of the theater’s acclaimed “August: Osage County” and “The Color Purple.”

Performances include 8 p.m. Dec. 20 and 21 and 2 p.m. Dec. 22. They resume Dec. 28 and continue through Dec. 31, including a special New Year’s Eve celebration.

The theater is on the third level of the City Center at White Plains, off Mamaroneck Avenue.
