The Board has proffered possibility of Alex Gemignani as Jean Valjean and Norm Lewis as Javert...
Who'd you like to see as Marius, the subject glory boy of "Bring Him Home"?
Has he been chosen?

Break my heart into a thousand pieces.
That's just the wrong set of ringlets.

Posted: 5/15/06 at 4:23pmI wanted them to get new actors into the roles. It would be interesting to see some new faces or new interpretations.

Posted: 5/15/06 at 4:30pmI was hoping they'd get someone new as well, but I'd still like to see him though.

Posted: 5/15/06 at 5:30pmI believe they already have their Enjolras.

Posted: 5/15/06 at 5:59pmSpeaking of WIW... (haha I'm like, obsessed with it now), how about Martin Crewes? Hasn't he played it before?

I was really hoping for Aaron Lazar or Adam Brazier for Marius...DARN!
Enjolras is still open though, apparently...
I think they should have hired ALL NEW people who have never done Les Miz and are DYING to...

Like you, Andrea! coughandmecough Did you end up hearing anything from them?
I agree, I'd like to see all new people, at least in the principal roles.

Posted: 5/15/06 at 7:08pmMartin Crewes was Marius on the Asian/South African tour in 1995. (The rest of the cast included Susan Gilmour, Ma-Anne Dionisio, Stig Rossen, and Richard Kinsey.)

No offence but while I enjoyed Martin Crewes in WiW, his Marius days are a while ago. Someone new, someone fresh and cute as a button but not dripping wet!
Tall order? lol
Just so long as they dont get anyone who sings like Marius on the OBC. Yuk. What was that all about? From big open sound in Michael Ball to pinched and painful. Josh Young for Enjolras if you ask me.

Posted: 5/15/06 at 8:08pmOh man! Adamn Brazier as either would be amazing casting!

Nope..no call from Les Miz for me...not even for an audition and I tried! Sorry everyone!
There is something better out there for me, I am sure.
Its not in my hands at all.
