Bjh2114, true Marissa is a swing, but there are times swings do understudy roles. An example I can think of is Dawn Younker, who was a swing and an Eponine understudy on the U.S. tour.

Marissa is indeed covering Eponine as well as being a swing.
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."

Surely Victor Hawks is understudying someone in the show. By the way, does he have a website? Anyone? Anyone?
Colle, 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.)
any news on Victor W. Hawks?

Victor Hawks is covering Valjean. GREAT voice!
And can I just say I am SO excited to see Haviland Stillwell go on for Fantine!
Very cool! That would be great to see. Does he have his own website yet?
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.
I thought I heard Doug Kreeger is u/s for Marius. I wish I could see him!
