I find it interesting that you believe that because some of the cast members in Les Mis are uni or school students or first time performers that they are not worthy of being paid the same amountas others. How do you differentiate between classifying people as professional or amatuer simply on their current form of employment.

Sure some people have studied music etc and do deserve to be paid but what about those people who havent been at the con or WAAPA but perhaps have studied for years in some other field but have a natural talent for performing. Why should these people not be rewarded for all the hard work that they have put into the show the same as past WAAPA and Con graduates.

Also,I think that if maybe you put a little more effort into getting to know your fellow cast members instead of ignoring them you may find that most of them have a little more experience than you think.
