S2 Ep1703: What It's Like Seeing Les Mis With AD?

What is it like seeing a stage production with audio description?

Luci Franks went to see the audio described performance of Les Misérables at London's Sondheim Theatre.

The famous musical is based on the 1862 novel by Victor Hugo. Set in 19th century France, Les Misérables follows the life of Jean Valjean – an ex-convict who seeks redemption and who is pursued by his rival and ex-guard Javert. Filled with love, passion and courage, the story seas Jean Valjean take on young orphan Cosette. Always on the run, they eventually find themselves in Paris in the midst of the French Revolution.

Luci spoke with RNIB Connect Radio's Paulina Kuchorew.
