the casting directors of The Wiz and Wicked have an opportunity to do the most thing imaginable
#like imagine an Evillene to Elphaba pipeline or vice versa#except wicked bway has never had a principal Black Elphie!!! RUDE OF THEM#there have been a number of Black Elphie on tour and as standbys/understudies/swings#have Brittney Johnson do a contract as Glinda#but Wiz Glinda and Wicked Glinda have very different voices so idk if it would work#I hope Andre DeShields has an opportunity to reprise his role#also it would be fun to see him in Wicked#I'm sure it's 1939's influence but I am always sad that the Good Witch of the North gets left out#Addaperle is SUCH a fun character#Amber Riley was such a good Addaperle#Ik Six probably won't close for some time but it'd be nice if for The Wiz's run they could move to another theatre#so the wiz can have the Lena Horne theatre#omg. A Fiyero to Scarecrow pipeline#and!! A Boq to Tin Man pipeline#I think Boq and the Tin Man might have similar vocal ranges? not too sure#I know that You Can't Win has become extremely iconic so they'll probably use that#but I hope that I Was Born The Day Before Yesterday at least gets to be a bonus track#bc then the only recording of it out there is on the obc 🥲#ozposting#the wiz#wicked#like there are going to be two oz themed musicals on bway at the same time#surely that has not gone unnoticed???
