Callbacks help pleaseSo I got a callback for Les Mis. The company I am auditioning for just lists the people who they want for a callback, so i dont know what part to look into, study, see what songs they have, etc. So if this has happened to you, even if it wasnt for Les Mis, what did you have to do, just what you normaly do at callbacks or something different. Sorry Im just really nervous. Thanks!

Can you give me a little background information on you? Physical description, voice part, previous training, age range of the company, etc?
(and congrats on the callback)

Most of the male roles in the show (except Jean Valjean, who has to have a hell of an upper range) could be sung by a high baritone. But if you're tall and solidly built my first guess would be Javert--maybe Enjolras or Marius, too.
There's an Auditions board for general tips about callbacks.

So i got cast as A Student and Ensmeble! (I am holding back on my exclamation point and smiley use) I am extremely happy with this role! the only problem is what do they students do? are they part of the chain gang or is it just another way of say ensemble? thanks
