Victoria Hamilton-Barritt. that is all. YEEEEEEEEES! Or, you might know what I'm gonna say, Rachelle Ann Go. But that won't be for this year because she'll be in Miss Saigon.

I loved her already, but after seeing her in Murder Ballad and meeting her after the show I love her even more. I'm obsessed with her.

Does anyone know when Wilemijn will finish in Wicked? Really want to see her before she goes. I know she starts after Rachel but January and February are no go times for me Someone on here when it was announced suggested it was a 6 month engagement and they were moving the major cast change to july time though im not sure that was confirmed

This sing-along thing is pathetic. As Daniel said, I'd start punching people if that happened during a performance I'm attending. There is a time and a place... finale of The Bodyguard/Mamma Mia/Beautiful etc, sing bitch sing! Sing like you have never sung before! ... end of Act I, iconic song... keep it zipped.

I don't know Matthew, but all the others would be perfect. Especially Emma. She'd be a perfect Glinda. Tori would be great as Nessa but I hope Sarah McNicholas will stay for more than 6 months. She was excellent when I saw her as the mistress in Evita.

How about a former Elphaba who hasn't played it in the UK yet? Jemma Rix would be awesome.

Why can't we just have a new Elphaba? And not one that is just new to the UK but a new Elphaba, new to the world?!
I mean, ideally for me and I know many others, Rachel John should be waiting in the wings. And we even mentioned it to her personally and she replied she has auditioned several times for it, so she has (or had) the desire to do it. Though I think she may of lost a bit of that desire now and just moved on from the idea, I'd still love to see it!

Does anyone have any idea why Carina has been out of the show for so long? Not really like her to be out for so long

Although Rachel Tucker auditioned a few times before she got in too. She just was not right for the part at those times.

I'm just saying I'd be cool with it if they brought some of the international Elphabas to London.

I would like to hope if Emma were to audition now she would stand a good, and much better chance, of being cast. Henderson and Sixpence have definitely brought Emma back into the theatre spotlight.

How about that? It's a long shot, but I'd love to see her do this in English.

Here's the latest video of Emma screeching and screaming the score - that Fiyero riff hurt my voice and my ears. Surely that's damaging her voice long term? This sounded atrocious! It sounded like her vocal chords were ripping in half, this is not safe on her voice especially when on a good show she can barely hit the normal "Fiyero". Emma has been a disaster as lead, her acting is some of the most lifeless and bland we've had in the show, and her vocals are just far too strained, especially when she had an entire week off the week before this, probably due to vocal damage attempting to screech the score! Funny, coming from you, who's "queen" damaged her voice long term and here you're taking the piss and saying Emma was damaging her voice, this was nearly a year ago and where's Emma now? Still singing, doing her thing with no vocal damage what so ever, so you might wanna think before you say things!

I would disagree when you say every performer. I think Emma Hatton sounded far screechier live than in her audios (and I didn't think that was possible) Go Away! I saw Emma nearly 40 times and not once did a screech come from that gorgeous voice of hers!

Alice is better live just like every other performer, Alice is outstanding! Of course they're all better live. But when you compare Alice's audios to another Elphaba's audios, and you think it's not that good in comparison, I think you can conclude that she'll probably not be incredible live either. well all I'm gonna say is that I personally think, Alice is better than Rachel

A few more cast holiday dates are up on their website. Rachel ist not performing on the 29th December (Evening) and from 2nd to 4th January. Luckily, I've got a free slot on the 2nd January (Evening) left, so I shall be dayseating that morning. Looking forward to seeing Alice again Alice is Queen!😍💚
