I’ve heard that Alexia’s father passed away some point earlier this month so that’s why she’s taken time off recently 💔

Starting to think we’ve got a Lucie 2.0 on our hands

I really really don’t understand why it’s a massive great big deal who is going on when 👀 You get who you get.. just think of it like a kinder surprise but green. The current standby isn’t all that, so it can be frustrating

Carina is coming back tonight to play Glinda!
I wonder if Alexia’s back or not!
My guess is Alexia & Lucy have Covid

Oh Dear! Hopefully they’re both back tomorrow! Probs just needed the night off as they’ve both got a manic weekend ahead! Manic how? Cast change…

Both Lucie and Helen are missing tonight’s show due to illness! Amy Webb & Lisa-Anne Wood will be on tonight!
Wise decision from the pair of them in my opinion, gives them time to rest and get an early night so they can perform their last show tomorrow! 💚

Has the post-covid schedule gotten rid of the ‘muck-up matinee’ or is still a thing? Sounds like wicked don’t tolerate anything like that (or riffing) anymore but I’m curious if there was any of that today. Today was a muck up matinee yeah

Lucie has just performed her 8th Defying Gravity of the week! Meaning this is her first 8 show week she’s done since October I believe!

Amy Webb & Carina tonight!
Also thought I’d mention as it’s quite funny
People saying to people being rude to lucie which I don’t agree with anyway but just thought it was funny that most responses were “how about you try doing 8 shows a week”
I just find that funny as lucie never does 8 shows a week, I believe so far in her run she’s done about three 😂

Someone tweeted asking if she’s ever on
A musical director to be more precise which is just mad
Of course we’ve had our discussions here that she misses a lot of shows but there could be many reasons why
Most people are just curious but there’s a time and a place and that wasn’t it! Came across very cruel and must’ve upset her

To my knowledge the only standby Elphaba that had similarly poor attendance was Natalie Andreou. Back in the day it was a lottery draw on whether you would see Natalie McQueen or Laura Emmitt when Emma Hatton called out. I'm glad Laura Harrison is getting recognition on here for carrying the show on her shoulders since last year. Hopefully she will receive similar recognition from Wicked and be given a role on tour! To be fair, Natalie A was way more consistent than Lucie

They didn't even get her to do a second contract in town, they certainly arent going to be shipping her off on tour which is arguably a harder go than just doing it in London I don’t think her attendance had anything to do with a second contract to be honest. I think from the start of her contract they had the idea that lucie and Helen would only do a year as they wanted to bring Alexia back and get the first black Glinda for next year which they’ve done. Diversity etc

Definitely hearing a return for Alexia Khadime as Elphaba, joining Ryan Reid as Fiyero and Lucy St. Louis joining as Glinda for Wicked’s first ever all-black trio. Lucy is contracted with Phantom till August 2023 though?

Lucie has been really consistent recently which is good to see!
She’s off now for the rest of the week but that’s due to holiday not illness!
Don’t believe she’d missed a show since Sunday the 2nd of October meaning she did nearly 3 weeks without a show off! Very impressed! I believe that’s the most she’s done without missing a show!

On average I would say 4-5 shows per week. I believe she has only completed two full eight show weeks since joining. Another great time for Wicked UK to consider an official alternate system for Elphaba! Lucie was guessed by Jonathan Ross as a potential celebrity dressed as Odd Socks on The Masked Dancer tonight…maybe THAT’S why she’s missed so many shows at Wicked?! 😅 HA! I said that! She tweeted “am I the masked dancer?” And I felt like saying “would explain why you’ve missed so many shows” but I’m not a see u next Tuesday HAHA! Na my honest opinion of what she’s off alot is a mix of things, long covid one of them, after effects from the vaccine (extreme fatigue being the main one) and that chest infection she had which gave her asthma… She’s off again today lol

Lucie’s off again tonight, Amy Elphaba!
Helen’s also off, she’s been away for a while, Helen has scheduled holiday for the rest of the week from tomorrow too so she won’t be back till Tuesday

How many shows a week is Lucie doing usually? On average I would say 4-5 shows per week. I believe she has only completed two full eight show weeks since joining. Another great time for Wicked UK to consider an official alternate system for Elphaba! Think it’s 3 now, could be 4 though! She did all 8 shows last week

Confirmed by a Cast Member: All the Glindas are staying, that's Sophie, Maria, Samantha and Rosa We will also be getting a NEW Nessa and a NEW Fiyero which has already been announced What about Alice if you don't mind me asking? xx Fingers crossed Alice is staying, a couple cast members said a few months back she is so I'm hoping!! It should be announced sometime this week

Maria might not want to stay so they would have to get someone else in to replace her. Maria's staying till Carina gets back

Not really, Alice is unbeatable, there's no one better than her IMO and Sophie has got so much better!! With the greatest respect, you said the same about Emma Hatton and now Alice is your favourite. Everyone is replacable. Rachel is the best I've seen, but I know that someone may come along who is even better. Thats the great thing about cast changes. Yes but now I've seen 14 elphies and everything Alice does is spot on and how i see Elphaba, she's better than Emma but Emma is still my second fave, back when Emma was my fave I'd only seen like 5 Elphabas

Take from this what you will, but there's going to be disappointment come cast change. At least from what I've heard through my stagey grapevine. Sophie is staying isn't she. Great. This is September 2015 cast change all over again. Not really, Alice is unbeatable, there's no one better than her IMO and Sophie has got so much better!!

I'm sorting my plans for my visit next Saturday night, I'm planning on going to stage door which I have never done for Wicked before, I was wondering if anyone knew roughly how long Alice usually takes to come out? Obviously I know this can be different each night but was just looking for a rough idea so I can work it so I don't miss my last train! xx During the week 22:30 ish, on a saturday probs 22:45
