A little more

When reading the program from Les Mis last night, I discovered a few fun tidbits about the actor (Rob Evan)  who played Valjean.  
First of all, he was a varsity football player who in college took his girlfriend to see Les Mis at the Fox in 1989 where he was so moved that he decided he had to do theatre.  He has a great voice...but you probably already know that since most of my readers have heard him sing.  Either on the original Broadway cast album of Jekyll & Hyde since he was the original Jekyl/Hyde or perhaps you've heard him sing "What is Christmas?" or "Back to a Reason" or "What Child is This?" from my favorite TSO album, The Lost Christmas Eve.
