Editor's Blog: Cameron Mackintosh commissions Les Mis artwork to brighten up Wardour Street!

To celebrate a phenomenal year for Les Misérables on stage and screen, Cameron Mackintosh has commissioned a very special piece of wall art that will adorn the side of the Queen's Theatre to brighten up Wardour Street. Make sure you take a look the next time you are walking through the West End!

Les Miserables has been seen by nearly 65 million people worldwide in 42 countries and in 22 languages, making it one of the world’s most popular musicals ever written. Last year Tom Hooper's film adaptation of the musical took the world by storm, winning three Oscars and breaking box office records. On Monday 17th June the West End production of Les Miserables will welcome new cast members as part of a major cast change.

Take a look at the photos below to see how artist Martin Jarvis created the wall art in three stages. (Click on an image to enlarge.)
