Holiday Gifting Day 2

Day 2 of 5 features a few Wicked videos!

Idina Menzel (Elphaba), Kristin Chenoweth (Glinda), Norbert Leo Butz (Fiyero), Sean McCourt (u/s The Wizard), Carole Shelley (Madame Morrible), Michelle Federer (Nessarose), Randy Harrison (t/r Boq), William Youmans (Doctor Dillamond) July 18, 2004; Broadway || Notes: This is Kristin and Norbert's last show. It was also supposed to be Joel Grey's last show, but he was ill. Video is sound only for first 4 minutes. This is a great video and excellent sound. Includes the speech by Idina. Definitely the best of the early Wicked captures. Idina wiping tears from Kristin’s face is touching and priceless. This bootleg is a treasure.

Eden Espinosa, Megan Hilty, Derrick Williams, David Garrison, Carol Kane, Jenna Leigh Green, Robb Sapp, Sean McCourt May 28, 2006; Broadway || Notes: Megan Hilty's last show in the Broadway run! A very Megan-centric recording, good close-ups and follows the action very well.

Link

Jenna Leigh Green (u/s Elphaba), Kendra Kassebaum (Glinda) 2005; First National Tour Notes: 10mins of highlights include Defying Gravity, the catfight, and No Good Deed.

Link

Jenna Leigh Green (u/s Elphaba), Katie Adams (u/s Glinda) 2005 (2); First National Tour || Notes: Very minimal highlights. Flying portion of Defying Gravity only. Still a nice and rare video of Jenna as Elphaba! Though not great quality.

So is that a maybe then?

I have tentative plans to see it mid-December with the friend I saw the musical with back in like 2005.

(1st National Tour, Stephanie J. Block my beloved, Kendra Kassebaum, a brand new Sebastian Arcelus)

But anyway yes I’m sure I will need to discuss the movie after I see it. And until then I am always available to discuss the books, the musical (although I have not been paying attention to the goings on of the productions and will feel very old if you mention anyone more recent than Annaleigh Ashford), various other Oz adaptations…

[ohlookitstomorrowff]

Remembering that there have been some absolutely incredible actresses who have played the role of Glinda is what’s getting me through the day.

Here’s just five of my favourites because, why not?

1. Savannah Stevenson (West End 2013-2016).

2. Suzie Mathers (Australia/Asia tour 2012-2014, Australia 2014-2015, West End 2016-2017).

3. Kristin Chenoweth (Broadway 2003-2004)

4. Kendra Kassebaum (1st US Tour 2005-2006, Broadway 2007 & 2008, San Francisco 2009-2010)

5. Katie Rose Clarke (1st US Tour 2007-2009 & 2011-2012, Broadway 2010-2011 & 2013 & 2018-2019)

Emerald Streams, 2021 edition:

Come From Away

Despite its success on Broadway, Come From Away paled in comparison to other musicals of the 2016/2017 Broadway season - a musical about 9/11?! Hmm. As someone who hasn't been affected by it personally at all, it didn't really appeal to me, and I never listened to it until 2019, when a friend recommended it to me and said it had been the best theatre experience she'd had in a while. I ended up seeing it in August 2019, and was blown away. This show is everything.

It's a very moving story with a strong cast of twelve performers playing multiple roles. The set is minimal, but the chaireography is really clever. I'd love to invite you to watch and enjoy this phenomenonal show with me!

When?
