Beyond The Barricade

Javert is SO Extra

Episode 1

On this episode I’m talking to the fabulous Michelle Dowdy who was last seen on the road as Madame Thenardier in the US Tour of Les Misérables. Right out of high school, Michelle booked the lead role of Tracy in Hairspray on Broadway, playing the role over 400 times over three years. She’s also been seen off Broadway in Night of the Living Dead! the Musical! and The Marvelous Wonderettes. She’s currently in Arizona riding out the pandemic with her partner Jordan Wolfe, making music together, and feeding horses. 

My chat with Michelle was so much fun and we both totally geeked out over all things Les Mis. We discussed who the real villain of the show is, why Javert is so extra and so much more!

Find Michelle on all social media platforms at @howdymissdowdy. Especially Tik Tok. She likes Tik Tok. 

Stream her album A Brass Act on Spotify!
