4 roles
Is Thernardier's son. He is left to fend for himself and live by his wits in the streets of Paris. His "arch enemy" is Javert the Policeman. He is brave and witty. Think of a young Artful Dodger.
Young Cosette is Fantine’s daughter and the Thénardiers’ ward. She has been forced into child labor. She is underfed, beaten by Madame Thénardier, and bullied by Eponine. Sings wistfully and beautifully up to C5.
Little Eponine is the pampered daughter of the Thernardiers. The role requires no singing or speaking. May also be cast as the understudy to Young Cosette, a singing role.
