sw Said,
The role of Eponine (btw it’s pronounced Ep-oh-neen) in “Les Misérables” may not be the biggest part in the show BUT it is perhaps the most popular and memorable. The original Eponine from the stage version, Frances Ruffelle (who will make a cameo in the movie), won multiple awards for her performance including the Tony (theater’s version of the Grammys).

Eponine sings what is usually considered to be the most famous song from the show, “On My Own.” Teenage girls who see “Les Mis” for the first time usually want to play her when they grow up. It is the often considered the dream role in “Les Mis.”
