As with every other character this woman has portrayed on Broadway, Sutton's interpretation of Eponine is nothing short of phenomenal. You can tell she really understands the character through the very subtle, yet powerful choices in movement, facial expression, and overall tone. Was she the "best" Eponine? Maybe not, but I don't understand how anyone could dislike her.

I personally think this was incredible... just because she doesn't have the typical "Eponine" voice we all know of and it's a bit more modern doesn't mean it's any less good. She truly develops the entire emotion of each word by just simply STANDING there. That's incredible. And you can truly see every emotion using her voice. Her voice adds on that. Again, not the "typical Eponine", but it wasn't a loony attempt. It was truly incredible-- one of the better versions currently out on KZitem.

I think she's an actor, and she makes her own acting choices. Whether or not you would do the same if performing the song is for you to decide. But you can't say she is wrong or incorrect because your opinion is different. Also remember Sutton is a professional Tony award winning actor pursuing an objective not playing an emotion or state of mind.

All the other Eponines I've seen played her all cutesy, but Sutton had depth that no one else had and it was mesmorizing. I'll never forget it. I'm lucky cuz i got to see her in Young Frankenstein and just recently in Shrek. She's my heroe!

I don't get why everyone hates this performance so much. I think it's pretty good. Much better than the "woe is me, I'm so lovesick!" performance that 9/10 Eponines perform. She acts weirded out, which I kind of like, since Eponine is a bit delusional and unstable in the novel.

This isnt the “standard” of on my own rendition since perhaps most of us are very familiar with lea salonga’s iconic performance.However if you really have read the book, and have not just based on broadway performance, I think this rendition is the closest to who Eponine really is.Eponine isnt angelic and a disney princess. She was a street girl, scorged and tortured by the cruel reality of life…The grit in the performance is what really makes this rendition great for an Eponine.

Her parents dont love her and the only person who shows her affection is a boy she can't have. AAAAAND...her voice is AMAZING on this.

That's arguably perfect for this character. She's supposed to be rough. Starting with the original in London and Broadway: Frances Rufelle. Frances has such a distinctive voice, and for awhile there all the replacement Eponines sounded like her - big nasal belt, serious vibrato. Lea Salonga has an amazing voice, clear as a bell, but I like Rufelle better for Eponine. Seems to fit better.

I totally get you and the criticisms about Sutton's incorrect "looney" attack to this. On My Own is supposed to be her "epiphany" -- when after so much reflection she realizes how alone she is and how her love will remain unrequited. While Eponine has a 'crazy touch,' this song is sung when Eponine's mind is at its clearest -- thus, Eponine should not appear crazy at all when singing this song. While Sutton had the wrong approach here, I forgive her for she was a newbie when she did Les Miz.
