Based upon the novel of the same name by French poet and playwright Victor Hugo, Les Misérables is one of the world’s most popular musicals, seen by more than 60 million people in 42 countries. Set in France in the early 19th-century, Les Misérables is the story of Jean Valjean and his quest for salvation after serving 19 years in jail for having stolen a loaf of bread for his starving sister’s child. Relentlessly tracked and hounded by police inspector Javert, Valjean and a slew of characters are swept into a student revolution, as a group of young idealists make their last stand at a street barricade.

XP_And Then There Were NoneAND THEN THERE WERE NONE
Presented by Xavier Players
March 20-23
Evanston

Directed by Will Clemens
Produced by Brandon Martin

Cast: Mac Blais as Rogers, Megan Hostetler as Mrs. Rogers, Alexa Hojczyk as Narracott, Emily deKanter as Vera, Sterling Shaw as Lombard, Ammar Khan as Marston, Josh O’Neill as Blore, Nick Bergeman as MacKenzie, Shannon Driscoll as Emily, Paul Hogue as Wargrave & Eric Minion as Armstrong

Ten guilty strangers are trapped on an island. One by one they are accused of murder; one by one they start to die. In this superlative mystery comedy statuettes of little soldier boys on the mantel of a house on an island off the coast of Devon fall to the floor and break one by one as those in the house succumb to a diabolical avenger. A nursery rhyme tells how each of the ten “soldiers” met his death until there were none. Eight guests who have never met each other or their apparently absent host and hostess are lured to the island and, along with the two house servants, marooned. A mysterious voice accuses each of having gotten away with murder and then one drops dead – poisoned. One down and nine to go!
