**All girls must be between the ages of 7-12 AND be no taller than four foot seven inches (4’7”)**

YOUNG COSETTE  Soprano - low A to middle C (Supporting)Fantine’s daughter given over into the Thenardier's care. She is forced into slavery by them, and bullied by Eponine. Despite this mal-treatment she is sweet-natured, intelligent, inquiring, innocent, loving.

YOUNG EPONINE/YOUNG COSETTE UNDERSTUDY Soprano - low A to middle C (Supporting).                
M. & Mme. Thenardier’s pampered, spoiled brat of a daughter, she taunts young Cosette. **Please note this is a non-speaking, non-singing role. The child chosen for this role must first successfully audition for Young Cosette, as well as bear a resemblance to the adult actor cast as Eponine as well.**

BOYS 
**All boys must be between the ages of 7-12 AND be no taller than four foot seven inches (4’8”)**

GAVROCHE Boy Soprano - low B to high G (Supporting). He is a willful, cocky, street-urchin who idolizes the men at the barricade. He is brave, witty, and charismatic – a real showman. **please note Gavroche says “What the hell” in one of his songs. Parents must be comfortable with that**”
