- <p> 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."
