My favourite Cosette! She acts her in such a bubbly, realistic and likeable way. Not stiff like a lot of the Cosettes I've seen. And then her voice is just gorgeous

I love Katie Hall as Cosette. You have to remember that Cosette is a teenage girl, and doesn't need to be as stiff and perfect as most actresses portray her.

I like that Eponine's not sweet; I don't think she'd be very sweet growing up with the Thenardiers, living on the streets. And then she goes and hangs out with Marius and the guys and she learns to flirt with him just like one of the guys. She never learned how to be girly, and so then it makes sense that Marius falls in love with Cosette, who is all those things, while never giving Eponine a second glance. It makes less sense when Eponine is sweet and pretty but Marius still falls for Cosette.

The Thenardiers were pretty nice to her in the book, though. As a child, they pampered her with female clothing and gave her dolls to play with.

I actually really like this Eponine! For the same reason I really like Samantha Barks Eponine. Eponine's voice isn't supposed to be sweet, and her character isnt supposed to be sweet. Her and Cosette are essentially foils. Eponine should have a more rough Mezzo to contrast Cosettes innocent Soprano in my opinion, and I think she does a good job at it! She has a great voice

I actually love this Eponine! She's one of my favorites. She's the only one to have ever made me cry. (I of course love Samantha Barks, but this one is fantastic.) And remember, Eponine was NEVER a delicate flower! There's no reason for her to sound "sweet"! Because she wasn't, she was a street rat. (And if you read the book...then you see there for sure isn't a reason for her to sound sweet.) I love this cast. I like Katie Hall, I do, but sometimes her voice sounds a little like a chipmunk.

I love how the characters are played mostly book-accurate. I just wish we could get some genuine grudging, spiteful bitchiness from Eponine, most productions of the musical make her too nice and Mary-Sueish. This one's better, but just not all the way there.

I love this cast! Except the Valjean. He was too hard when addressing Cosette. I love how melodies return and remind us of different themes. The entire show is brilliant and I love a racially blind cast! Cameron Macintosh does this all the time! Lea Salonga has been both Eponine and Fantine and Norm Lewis was Javert. I do agree that film is a different story. Since cameras are up in the actors face constantly, it gelps if they look like the character. This isnt racist because i feel like film
