I actually love her, but for a completely different reason than why I love Lea and Samantha. They are both so powerful and full of emotion, but Eponine is only supposed to be around 15 at the time so I like the almost tortured bit of innocence Nancy Sullivan has in her voice
Her voice sounds too innocent for the role and lacks the power of the other actors who've played Eponine. She's very likeable, but comparing her to THE Lea Salonga would be a futile attempt at making her look good.
i saw Nancy as Eponine two years ago she was brilliant and Tbh i'd have a difficult time if i was asked to choose the best out of her, Samantha barks and Lea Salonga all three of them are fantastic and all my favorite :)
If you've seen Nancy Sullivan in the actual musical, and not a three minute BBC clip in the earlier months of her two year run, I think you'll agree that she's one of the best Eponine's ever. Much better than Samantha Barks, for one.
Sorry, but I don't like the juvenile sounding voice. No knock on the singers ability. Like a talent show where a 12 year old phenom sings an old time country song about her man leaving her before she's had her first period. Or, with the hormone's in the water supply, maybe I should say nine year old.
@ILyPenelopie ABSOLUTELY. I just cannot believe that people use her as the "ultimate Éponine" Although she is an amazing actress, from what I understand. So very canon. Well, she has to be when she sings like that. :/
It's a life long dream of mine to even sing as Eponine. I will be eternally gratful to anyone who ever offers me that oppertunity. She is such an inspiring character, and I think she is the most amazing soul who ever roamed the world of fiction. She is my favourite, if you haven't already noticed XD BTW I love Nancy, but I think Rosalind James has to be the best Eponine for me. Also, she made Eponine have blonde hair. It dosen't really look right...
Everywhere I watch this, Eli one is always portrayed as a brunette. To see a blonde (like myself) makes me really happy. I was in this play and I wanted Eponine so badly but I got older Cosette.
@lisambofoh She was blonde in the book? I thought that was Azelma? In which chapter does it say that she's blonde? If she is, I think that's really coll because I've never pictured her looking like that.
@schoolplaystars1214 just be yourself, dont come across too strong or too nervous. walk in like you know what you're doing. hope thats okay, i cant honestly remember all she said
You can't really say she isn't right for the part by listening to a recording lol! Had any of you negative people actually seen her perform as Eponine you would know that she was actually the best one on the stage! From the front rows you could see every expression on her face and feel every emotion the character was feeling - something you just won't get from this recording. Nancy is amazing.
She isn't... bad, so to speak. I wouldn't have cast her- something seems a bit off. I don't like her Eponine, but she has a good voice, and as far as I've heard, is a damn nice person.
@TheCherryBomber1 Hey, sweet people can have "balls"! Like me. I'm sweet and my singing voice is sweet but no one who has done something to annoy me can say I have "no balls whatsoever". Besides, she's made Eponine her own and made her diffrent to the others
YES! A blonde Eponine! Finally :) I like her, but it sounded like she was desperately trying to hit those notes and just couldn't. Also a bit too fast, but overall amazing :)
You know what's interesting about this song? Very different voices seem to suit it perfectly. Voices like this have a certain emotion about them that put you in her place. But voices like Lea Salonga's are just so powerful and you feel the lyrics in your soul. Music is universal. It's awesome.
@Eatsleeptwilight Samantha was mediocer! Same with Nick, Nick was a tad better, I also saw her with Nick and i've seen Nancy! Nancy pones Samantha's ass, Nancy should have been at the O2 not Samantha, Samantha was way out of her legue. I was there, I saw it! She was terrible live (Not Nancy, Samantha)
@Dance4aSmile whatever u say. i completly disagree but i dont want to fight. you wont change my mind and i wont change yours. we are all entitled to our own opinions.
Very, very good. From seeing her in videos doing "A Little Fall Of Rain" she's an amazing actress. She still doesn't beat the orginal, Frances Ruffelle.
Nancy Sullivan will be perfoming an intimate performance of Cabaret songs for fans at the Stag theater in London on the 19th of July. To book tickets please visit the Stag website
I love her accent, seen her live as well and met her at the stage door afterwards, she was very nice and took the time to chat with us, not many people do that, she's got absolutely no attitude, makes me like this even more :)
I'm sure she made a great Eponine !!! I guess maybe I'm Buyist, because Lea played both Eponine and Fauntine. Iv'e seen her live and with every song she sang, she always put feeling and emotion . Their both on broadway and that says alot. .....We aren't. Lol. With my voice thankGod !!!!!!
She was amazing...but a little pitchy at times-still quite a powerful voice. Lea Salonga is still my favorite. I also don't think this recording does her justice, even if she wasn't my favorite.
She's beautiful, a fantastic actress, but I find her voice a little weak and immature, especially in the beginning. All in all, I'm not impressed with her vocally.
I saw her last week =D She was sssoooo amazing! I was expecting Fantine to be the highlight of the show for me, but Nancy was fantastic! And I thought she really did have the balls that Eponine needs! :P
I saw here a month ago and she stunned me! I loved the whole cast and especially our own Hans-Peter Janssens (Javert). The only one disappointing to me was Marius, who did make it up a bit in Empty chairs
I saw her on the 24th anniversary of Les Mis! I have never cried so much in my enitre life, and I litterally had to go back and see it once more. I was lucky though, the people who follow LM said the cast I saw was the best there has been in many years.
i love nancy!! she's really good on stage and always makes me cry :'( but its not fair that she dies and marius ends up with cosette - its not her fault shes poor!
I went to London to see Les Mis in 2008, I think this is the Eponine I saw (: fave will always be Lea Salonga, however Nancy was superb, was so impressed when I saw her.
BEST EPONINE EVER!!!! :) well maybe just to me. :) i saw her in london a few weeks ago and cried my eyes out when she died. Her voice is amazing and she is such a great actress!
I've seen her alive a few weeks ago. She's so pretty ^^ Her voice is really sweet. Love Les Miserables, a pitty I'm not from England, for I would go see this musical alive everyday. :P
Hey, saw her last night. Although I adored her voice and found it very unique, I couldn't help but find this song was a bit too big for her, it came across a bit shouty. Although maybe her voice was just tired -8 shows a week!! You're bound to have an off night!!
no one can beat ashley spencer in the pittsburgh CLO production of les mis! (i mean in a production that isn't broadway or london, because i loved frances & lea).
@thalysss69 Ummm, I'd have to disagree. I listen to this woman and she sings it well, but don't feel anything from it. Lea sang it with feeling. Have you seen the 10th anniversary of Les Miserables ? And I just heard this girl sing the last note and it was completely flat !!!! Lea kicks her arse !!!!!!
I'm not saying Lea is bad at all. I think they're both great but little preference for Nancy. On the other hand, I've seen Nancy live so I guess that being in the theatre really into the story probably emphasises feelings :) I don't really know... but I know I love this song... !
Love Lea because she shows a deep passion for Marius and desperation. Love Nancy because she reminds me of a younger Eponine and she sounds more like she grew grew up on a street (in a good way). Love Nancy's accent that's why :)
there is a fundraiser cabaret next and im singing this song. i have trouble getting above (a) in my chest voice and i'm really not comfortable in my head voice that much.
I saw her in April, and she was amazing. I'd listened to the recording thousands of times, and was worried whether Eponine would still be awesome, and she was. Nancy is the BEST Eponine, totally perfect for that role
I remember seeing her on i'd do anything and thinking that she could have easily won the show as whe was such a nancy character. I was soooooo disappointed when she got kicked out :( but she has shown them now by getting an awesome part!
went to see les mis last week and loved it. this is the best song ever...
I actually love her, but for a completely different reason than why I love Lea and Samantha. They are both so powerful and full of emotion, but Eponine is only supposed to be around 15 at the time so I like the almost tortured bit of innocence Nancy Sullivan has in her voice

Love Lea because she shows a deep passion for Marius and desperation. Love Nancy because she reminds me of a younger Eponine and she sounds more like she grew grew up on a street (in a good way). Love Nancy's accent that's why :)

1. Love the Eponine
2. Love the backing track, it's from the dutch cast recording with new orchestrations. Wich were a little bit fuller than the Broadway Revival.

My apologies to the fans of Nancy, she's beautiful and talented, this is not about her.
Just want to place this obnoxious critic wannabe in his place.

I saw her in April, and she was amazing. I'd listened to the recording thousands of times, and was worried whether Eponine would still be awesome, and she was. Nancy is the BEST Eponine, totally perfect for that role

She is good yes, but not the best ever - I preferred Sabrina Aloueche.

It's only personal opinion. In MY opinion she's the best it doesnt mean you have to think the same

And it's only his opinion, you don't have to take it seriously.

Pity, you have no taste for talent.
Lea has won 5 major Theater Awards as Best Actress including the Tony and Olivier.
