Breaking: LES MISERABLES Announces First Wave of 2014 Broadway Cast - Ramin Karimloo, Will Swenson, Nikki M. James & Caissie Levy

I was searching to find if Heidi Giberson was going to be in the revival and when I typed her name in with Les Miserables on google, a Facebook page came up. The google caption had these names:

Bridie Carroll, Erik Cheski, Taylor Collins, Rick Desloge, Trevor Downey, Preston Ellis, Heidi Giberson, Neil Haskell, Cody Scott Lancaster, Lauren Linville.

It looks like someone deleted the post but I think this might be some of the ensemble.

Saw the production last wed. night. Thought that both Ramin Karimloo and Earl Carpenter were fantastic as Valjean and Javert, respectively. It's a shame that they are not bringing Earl Carpenter with them to Broadway.

On a separate note, it was my first time seeing the new production, and I was very sad that the Drink With Me reprise has been cut. I remember that as being one of the most moving scenes when i first saw the original production on tour in 1991. I also found the set less effective than the original.

Perhaps Karimloo and Swenson were chosen because they are younger, more attractive actors and will appeal to the "young" theatre goers (aka the ones who are so young they didnt know it was a musical until they saw the movie -_-) Someone like Norm Lewis wouldn't play to that generation. Not just his age, but his voice too. It's a way to keep the longtime theatre goers happy as they are veterans of the stage as well as bring in new people. However, I can agree with one thing....Caissie levy?? Really??

Yeah, we've also got Max Quinlan and Jason Forbach in the ensemble as well. I would assume they're understudying too.

"Wow - THREE of the principal players from the tour have taken "demotions" to ensemble. At least they have a job!"

I'm not complainin' or anything. You're right, at least they're working. I'm just curious if they're at least understudying.

interesting to see that Arbender Robinson is already leaving Beautiful to do Les Miz.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

I thought the same thing. Antoine Smith didn't transfer with the show from SF, so that's two pre-B'way folks who are leaving before opening.
