m and a link will take you to the official 'Les Mis�rables' website, specifically to the page therein which lists all the opening nights since the start on 17th September 1980 in Paris. The very next entry on a long list says it then opened on 8th October 1985 at the Barbican Theatre, London.

(If it didn't even open in Paris until 1980, AB, a late 70s opening in London is a non-starter, I'm afraid. I'm not going to hunt any further, but I don't know whether it ever went on at the Cambridge either.)
