Characters:

[name_u]JEAN[/name_u] VALJEAN: (dramatic tenor/original production: dramatic baritone)
Prisoner 24601. After being released from imprisonment for serving nineteen years (five for stealing a loaf of bread and fourteen for multiple escape attempts), he breaks parole and, after receiving mercy from [name_m]Bishop[/name_m] Myriel, turns his life around to live for God, showing the effects of God’s grace that bring a corrupt man into virtuous and selfless living. He changes his identity, becoming the wealthy mayor of a small town. He later adopts [name_f]Cosette[/name_f], the only daughter of [name_f]Fantine[/name_f]. At the end, he eventually dies and the spirit of [name_f]Fantine[/name_f] thanks him for raising her child.
PLAYED BY:

INSPECTOR JAVERT: (baritone) respects the law above all else and relentlessly pursues Valjean, hoping to bring the escaped convict to justice. He firmly believes in the justice of the law, and has no room for mercy. In the end he commits suicide, broken by the mercy he experiences from Valjean.
PLAYED BY:

THE [name_m]BISHOP[/name_m] OF DIGNE: (baritone) Shelters Valjean after his release from jail and gives him gifts of silver and absolution. His acts of kindness move Valjean to surrender his ways to God, escaping the label of “criminal” and living in a new identity.

PLAYED BY:

THE FACTORY GIRL: (soprano) Mistress to the Factory Foreman. She intercepts a letter that the Thénardiers have sent to [name_f]Fantine[/name_f] which exposes her as the mother of an illegitimate child, and the Factory Girl shows it to the Foreman, goading him into firing her.
