Posted: 2/19/13 at 7:31pmIf Melissa O'Neil, who will play Eponine in the Toronto revival, gets good reviews I'd like to see her play the role in the Broadway revival.

"I'd like to see Brian D'Arcy James as Valjean and Marc Kudisch as Javert."

Posted: 2/19/13 at 7:55pmAll I've wanted out of a Les Miz revival has been Laura Osnes and Michael Arden as Cosette and Marius. They would be the sweetest Cosette and Marius ever.

Posted: 2/19/13 at 8:29pmTry limiting your choices to members of the original cast of another show. Rock of Ages would be fun to try, but Newsies would be a challenge...

Posted: 2/19/13 at 8:45pmLove the Laura Osnes as Eponine idea. I would like to see Idina Menzel as Fantine.

Sweet Jesus, keep Sutton Foster away from this show.
Sweet Jesus doesn't care.

JACKIE HOFFMAN FOR MADAME THENARDIER!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!
I'd love to see Eden Espinosa in this as well. Fantine or Eponine, maybe?
#34I don't want to play this game....
Posted: 2/19/13 at 8:58pmEden Espinosa is entirely too old for Eponine.

"I would like to see Idina Menzel as Fantine."
Menzel said that she likes to star in original musicals not revivals.

Posted: 2/19/13 at 9:49pmEden was cast as Fantine in the last revival but it didn't work out.

Posted: 2/19/13 at 9:50pm^ I thought she was offered the role of Eponine, but she wanted to play Fantine instead.
#38I don't want to play this game....
Posted: 2/19/13 at 9:56pmEden auditioned for Eponine, but Cameron Mackintosh said she was a Fantine and she auditioned for that part then was cast, but couldn't do it.

Posted: 2/19/13 at 10:09pmBetsy Morgan better come back to play Fantine. She was giving a 110% performance, on that stage. In fact, I chills all through out her " I Dreamed A Dream" You could feel the energy all from the balcony.

Posted: 2/19/13 at 10:35pmThis production has a tendency to cast non-white Éponines. They also started with a black Valjean. I bet there will be minority actors cast in many principal tracks, much like the last revival. Just putting that out there. Let's have an Asian Valjean!

Posted: 2/19/13 at 10:49pmI was gonna say, this thread is pretty white.
#43I don't want to play this game....
Posted: 2/20/13 at 1:02amHow about nobody. Is that an option?
#44I don't want to play this game....
Posted: 2/20/13 at 3:20am"Sweet Jesus, keep Sutton Foster away from this show", Jordan I have never seen Foster on stage, but going by her on the show "Bunheads" she has the charm of something dead.

I'd be fine with Sierra Boggess or Eden Espinosa as Fantine. Laura Osnes would be a nice Eponine and sure she looks really young, but isn't she a tad too old for a teenager? What about Jennifer Damiano or Sarah Hyland? Heck, why not get Melissa Benoist (Marley from "Glee")?
Jackie Hoffman would be a HILARIOUS Madame Thenardier!

That's true, I didn't think about that. I doubt it will happen anyway, but it's a nice idea.

Re: Tennant & Tate - Good God, I would walk to New York to see that.
