Playbill hunt: Faith Trent in Late 90s Les Miz tour

Do you have a Playbill from a 1996ish touring production of Les Miz? My friend, Faith Trent, played Young Cosette on that tour, and I don't know that she has one; if I can find one, I'd like to acquire it to give her as a bday present. She's 22 now, was 8 or 9 then, and my math sucks.

If you went to a show on that tour, and keep such things, and wouldn't mind parting with one, do please look, and PM me.

She hasn't been doing too badly since -- mostly as a singer, though she was a "featured extra" in Taking Woodstock... and then got cut anyway. Her first full album, of blues rock, is at https://tr.im/btonic, on CD Baby. Copped a Billboard #2 on the dance chart a few years back too, and did, with Widelife, the theme for ABC Fam's Knock First. I'm sooo proud...

(I see that if you don't title the link, it doesn't bother to a) post it or b) warn you. Corrected.)

I KNOW I saw her as Young Cosette back in 1996. All my playbills are at my parents' house and I don't think I'll be visiting them for another month, but I'll keep you (and this thread) in mind. :)

I greatly appreciate it, Liz.

She needs a publicist in the *worst* way...

Liz is one, and another kind poster has one in the mail to me now, bless you both.

If no one thinks I'm being overly greedy, I'd like to end up with three, so I can give one to Faith... and me and our mutual best friend can get her to autograph the other two for us.

(We didn't know her then, you see... )

Wicked'10-A was awesome, BTW...

Gave this link to a friend who says she might have one.

Cool, Salene; thanks. Look forward to hearing.

Y'know; I'm on a lot of different subject forums on the web, and you guys here just rock. Really. If I come to the stagedoor, would you sign my screen?

Faith Trent is an absolute delight and I'm so glad to hear she's going strong. Foolish Mind Games was an absolutely gorgeous vocal! I was lucky enough to see her perform that live once and was completely blown away! Please let her know she is greatly missed in the dance world, but we are glad to hear she's still at it!

Good to know she still has a fan or two here and there. Either Body or In Stereo (and I can never remember which), one of her two followups, made #2 on the Billboard Dance/Club Play chart.

And, as I noted, her recent blues rock album's on CD Baby, with the previews linked about.

I'll pass along the nice thoughts; thanks.

Well, the first one came in, in quite nice shape for its age; thanks to the mystery donor.

As it happens, I just got clearance from her to set up a fansite for her, which I'll be working on this month. Her fans pop up in the oddest places...

Anyone else ever come up with a program they can spare?

I'm also looking for a Les Miz Playbill---any cast is fine. Please PM me!

I've PMd the couple people who offered, but I figured I'd bump this one last time for effect -- 4 months is long enough, right?

Lining up my shows for '11; Tampa's getting Wicked, West Side, HAiR, and Forbidden Broadway.

And happily, they're all next year, since I got laid off last month. :-}
