In nineteenth century France, Jean Valjean is released from years of unjust imprisonment, but finds nothing in store for him but mistrust and mistreatment. He breaks his parole in hopes of starting a new life, initiating a lifelong struggle for redemption as he is relentlessly pursued by police inspector Javert, who refuses to believe Valjean can change his ways. Finally, during the Paris student uprising of 1832, Javert must confront his ideals after Valjean spares his life and saves that of the student revolutionary who has captured the heart of Valjean's adopted daughter.

A Concert/Symphonic Arrangement has been specifically written for use in a concert setting. Generally this means it features a larger, typical symphonic orchestration than what you may find in the show. It is meant to be performed with one or more singers.
I am writing a book about teens putting on a production of Les Miserables. Can you point me in the direction of the entity I would talk to about securing rights to use pieces of songs? Thanks so much. Roberta Gore
A STUDENT in Israel is anyone from 18 to 23 in age. Does that age factor fall within your definition of student production? Is the fact that these performers are ALL students in university performing on campus allow them to perform the School Addition of Les Mis. In a previous production several years ago you allowed this to happen, as Israeli " students" are all post army service. Can you once again confirm your permission to perform?

Throughout my journey at Misericordia University, I have developed wonderful relationships with those in the History and Government Department, both faculty and students, who have done so much to support me during my journey here.
Between my studies as a dual History and GLNS major, and extracurricular activities as former Vice-President of the History Club and former GLNS Club President, and current Phi Alpha Theta member, I have been able to pursue activities outside the classroom that help me to gain an insight into the world around me and how my talents may help it.
The faculty-student environment provided by Misericordia University was very friendly, collaborative, and insightful. There was never a moment I felt my classmates or professors were unapproachable, making my learning experience more welcoming.
Misericordia truly became a second home for me during my 6.5 years there. Specifically during the physical therapy program, the professors were (and still are) always there to provide encouragement, a shoulder to cry on during hard times, and extra insight above and beyond their required duties.
Evidence-based practice was consistently stressed throughout the program, which taught me that learning and growing as a clinician is a never ending process. My professors also encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone and apply for a competitive and intense clinical setting which enhanced my experience in the area of pediatrics drastically, allowing me to acquire a job in outpatient pediatrics as my first job out of school.
What makes Medical & Health Humanities so special is that it provides the perfect foundation for so many areas in both the health sciences and health care fields. When I was searching for schools, I knew that I wanted to go into a medical field where I could learn skills to help other people. What I never expected was to learn skills that could help people in other aspects of their life besides just physical treatment, something that other fields of medical education do not cover as well.
In only my first two years, I have had the opportunity to learn so much about healthcare systems, human rights, societal and cultural influences on medicine, medical ethics, and more! After I complete my undergraduate degree in MHH, I plan on going into graduate training for physical therapy. I truly believe that the knowledge and skills I am acquiring in MHH are going to enhance my career and how I work with those in need of or receiving medical care.
My experience at Misericordia University, and in particular as a Speech Language Pathology major, has been invaluable. Every professor I have had at Misericordia has gone above and beyond to be invested in the success of their students.
The SLP department at Misericordia made it easy to get involved with numerous clubs and activities, whether it was volunteering to take on extra clients at the on-campus clinic or organizing the annual 5K for the local chapter of the National Stuttering Association. Also, I was so thankful to be included on numerous research projects that were presented at state and national conferences in amazing cities across the country from Pittsburgh to Los Angeles.
The Psychology department at Misericordia University has helped me realize a deeper potential. Whenever I had certain goals in mind academically, I was able to achieve higher than originally thought possible.
Every psychology professor I had the privilege to study under were all extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. The one-on-one experience I had with my psychology professors has helped me feel more welcomed and comfortable, and is an experience that I feel cannot be matched.
