PEOPLE, Page 75Broadway Re-Bound
By GINIA BELLAFANTE
How do big, gaudy Broadway musicals manage to lure tour
buses, matinee in and matinee out? With an occasional dose of
inspired vitality. On Jan. 5, the 21-year-old Tony Award-winning
actress LEA SALONGA will spark up the cast of Les Miserables,
which miraculously enough will soon enter its sixth year on the
Great White Way. The Filipina beauty and erstwhile Miss Saigon
will take on the role of Eponine, the singing street waif
portrayed earlier in the year by ex-pop princess Debbie Gibson.
Alas, as Eponine, Salonga will again die tragically onstage.
However, she says, "this time I don't have to kill myself."
