Oh, sorry, I didn't mean that they weren't understudying roles. I just meant that in addition to covering some assigned roles, they will be swings covering the female ensemble roles as well. I don't know other of the female swings, so I wasn't able to predict what they would be covering!

EDIT: And by "I don't know other of the female swings", I meant "I don't know EITHER of the female swings."

Posted: 7/31/06 at 3:47pmSurely Victor Hawks is understudying someone in the show. By the way, does he have a website? Anyone? Anyone?

Posted: 7/31/06 at 4:22pmColle, a few other swings have covered roles, too. Scott Logsdon as Thénardier and Gregg Brandt as Enjolras. (There have been more, but those two come to mind.)

Farah Alvin covering Mme T?
Dear Jeebus. I can't imagine that, and yet I have a strong desire to see it asap, as soon as I know if/when she's going on.
