@spudmuffin99 she is a girl playing a boy. Common in musical theater (most "Oliver's" that I have seen are girls). She gave the best audition for the role and is an amazing singer. Her younger brother was cast as the 4 year old Tommy, and I think it helped them get the part because they look so much alike and can believably be playing the same child.
Has this Cousin Kevin, perchance, also played Eddie in "The Rocky Horror Show"? ;)
