Originated onstage by Frances Ruffelle, the role of Eponine will be played by Tony Award winner Nikki M. James in the upcoming revival.
We are taking a look at the many actresses who have performed Eponine's signature song, "On My Own."
The iconic ballad, performed by the character of Eponine in Les Miz, features music by Claude-Michel Schonberg and original French lyrics by Alain Boublil. The song was later translated into English by Herbert Kretzmer, and features orchestrations by John Cameron.
