Les Miserables Randal Keith interview --> Opening night review! — Page 4

The sucky part about being Fantine (as is said Forbidden Bway) you sing one [two] song[s] then die!

Then you have to be a boy at the barricade - and that part is not even listed in the playbill under your bio ((Fantine/Bullet Buy)

Oh well!

Well, on the OFC Fantine had two solos (J'avai rêvé d'autre vie, literaly, I had dreamed of another life) and OMG kill me I foget the name of the other....

Well, the Fantine on the OFC is amazing and the original lyrcs to I dreamed a dream are amazing...

"Mais la vie a tué mes rêves
Comme un court printemps qui s'achève"

I think that's the ending, if my memory isn't failing me yet!

What a dumb spelling error in my French - it's bad enough I can't spell in my second language - but now I can't spell in my native langauge! Mon Dieu!

AHHH! Just found a second mistake!
I really need to go now lol!

Eh, as I always say: [read signature below]

HAHA! I'm more stressed that PB ENT thinks I may not be a good journalist! *dramatic sob*

Okay, I'm going now. Really. NOW. Gone. Buh-bye!

Poor Tiff, it'll all come out fine!

---

GO AWAY Tiff! Now, go! lol. You said you were gone and then you returned. heehee. We love having your here darling. :)

*cheers Tiff on*

---

I haven't left yet. Please don't hit me.

Okay, okay, I swear I'm leaving for a minute. To PROVE it to you, I'm going to close this window entirely, and you'll see that I'm offline within 30 seconds of now. I swear.

Thenardier recognizes that Valjean is the guy he sold Cosette to and that he has a scar on his chest which shows he was in prison.

Eponine and Cosette don't really interact as adults, but Eponine has a little minute of reflection where she remembers who Cosette is and is basically thinking why couldn't I be her?

No prob

Marius has more stage time, a solo, and a duet (neither of which Enjolras has), but IMO an actor can do a lot more with the role of Enjolras.

Ask Randal about how the dry bread on Broadway used to cut his hands and face. And what it's like to have the man he formerly understudied as HIS current understudy.

I bet he has a lot of stories to tell you about performing Les Miz in Shanghai and Seoul, too. Randal is a WONDERFUL story teller and I can only imagine that in a press setting he would really let loose. :)

Who mentioned his "son"? Because Randal has no kids. Ivan Rutherford's son is playing Gavroche, though.
Tiff, be sure to check out this link too.

Thanks for the link Musetta. I'm looking at their cast list, and it's not updated right? It still lists Javert as being someone other than Robert Hunt.

Interview in 1.5 hours! Gonna go watch the 10th anniversary now. I don't think I'll have time to ask too many questions in 20 minutes, unfortunately.

Tiff~ just "listen carfully" He may give you more info than you expect. It's not the quantity of questions but the quality of the conversation that makes for a good read.

God, I wish I learned to take my own medicine...some of my taped interviews have to be pared down to the core of sanity.

Have fun!!!!

YaY!'
