Next, we're gonna take a look at another previously untranslated section of the show: when Fantine meets the customer Bamatabois. I'm going to translate and compare how the show changes over the course of twenty years. I'll begin with the 1991 Paris cast and end up at the most recent French cast, a version that ran in Québec from 2008-2009. Here's a sneak peek:
"How ugly you are!
But I love trying new things.
Come closer
I like to see before I buy
You'l have 5 Francs
You're not worth more than that..."
Check back later this week for the rest!
