Someone Emma Hatton sitting in a chair not moving and just singing riffing the songs? I think together we've cracked it. Unlimited Together we're unlimited Together we'll be the greatest team There's ever been tr252 Dreams, the way we planned 'em If we work in tandem: There's no fight we cannot win Just you and I

Just for the avoidance of doubt as there seems to be loads of Daniels on here...it is neither I nor danieljohnson14 ! ๐ I can clarify this too. it is not a master plan of Daniels. Sure, we are all Wicked fans apparently, but myself and daniel are not psychopathic about it... ... kinda.

'She gets into character too much' (about Alexia) didn't make much sense to me, either. Again, that's... that's called acting.

Maybe we should email Stephen Schwartz asking him to rearrange the show. Have Wizard and I, Defying Gravity and No Good Deed first, then an interval and then the rest. The superfans can leave in the interval, and we others can enjoy the rest of the show. I don't even get why they're called superfans, because it's abundantly clear that they are not actually real fans. They're just looking for attention.

Us oldies must remember that things are different now. This new generation are growing up in an era where they feel they need to document every opinion they have ever had on social media or on a vlog.
Everyone wants to be a you tube star!

Just for the record: He has never actually seen Helen Dallimore or Alexia Khadime or Adele Dazeem on stage? And yet he is criticising them?

While he also just straight up bashed certain performers entirely and labeled them as crap (sorry Natalie McQueen and Willemijn, Daniel doesn't like your Elphaba at all...) HANG ON! He doesn't like Nat??? *grabs torch and pitchfork*

What age would you call old? Because I'm pretty young, and I'm nothing like those people.

I was gonna say, I'm only 22 and consider myself a big Wicked fan, but I am nothing like this and would never want to be like this. This right here, is how restraining orders begin!

It was not long ago he privately messaged me telling me he wanted to "fall asleep during Rachel's performance" because he found her "so boring outside the three big songs, which are only good when she riffs them anyway". While he also just straight up bashed certain performers entirely and labeled them as crap (sorry Natalie McQueen and Willemijn, Daniel doesn't like your Elphaba at all...) You're putting personal messages on a public forum? That's pretty poor form! Who cares if he doesn't like a certain performer either? You've been vocal enough on occasions on which performers you don't like too. Everyone has different things they like in a performer. We all have our personal favourites. So long as they are respectful to the performers at shows and in person outside who really cares?

In the words of Glinda "may I cut in?" I'd just like to add that I think it's hilarious that this guy says Helen Dallimore is "a bit OTT" in a video where he spends 17 minutes screaming "EMMA IS MY QUEEN"'"SAVANNAH IS THE BEST GLINDA TO HAVE EVER GRACED THE WICKED STAGE ANYWHERE EVER" Well that's just ridiculous, hysterical and completely over the top. We all know the best Glinda was Dianne Pilkington...

I cant stop laughing. Moaning about how Alexia got too much into the character (just judging on videos he's watched) and how Rachel just lets the emotion get in the way of her voice...I'd be complaining if an Elphaba didn't do any of those things.
Back in the day the crazy Wicked fans were just that, fans that loved the show...now the crazy Wicked fans just seem to be crazy and possibly phsychotic.

There's always been a minority who overstep the line.
Someone once said to me my front door knob is the same as Kerry Ellis'. How on earth would you know unless you'd been there?!

Okay, I have to admit I've only heard audios lol. See, that's why I only rate Elphabas and Glindas I've seen live on stage. We all know the best Glinda was Dianne Pilkington... Pfff. Philistine. Kara Lindsay wins by a mile. That's actually not a bad idea as they would be able to get to the stage door first without running ...or start next day's dayseat queue early

Haha this video really has opened up a can of worms! ๐
As well as sprinting to reach the stage door, illegally recording shows (albeit they can be enjoyable to watch...), listening out for every single minuscule riff and also pressing heads against a backstage entrance to hear DG from Wilton Road, 'superfans' also take social media too far.
Meeting a member of the cast at stage door is great and so is an occasional tweet to them. But tweeting them almost every day?! Come on! I really do wonder what the actors and actresses contacted by such people really think!
Oh, and we'd better get our tickets booked up sharpish for 'Evita'. With Emma Hatton in the leading role, I'm sure that plenty of people will be booking seats for every performance to support the 'queen'...

You've been vocal enough on occasions on which performers you don't like too. Everyone has different things they like in a performer. We all have our personal favourites. So long as they are respectful to the performers at shows and in person outside who really cares? You clearly did not read my post correctly. I would like to point out that I was not criticising him having opinions. He can think whatever he well pleases, all I am saying is I would prefer for him to not say one thing to one person and then another thing to another person. It's incredibly two faced. People should be honest. I have been quite vocal of my opinions that is true, as a member of this board I can post my thoughts and opinions. I think Emma Hatton is rubbish, I own that statement and if people ask me to my face, I will confirm it. I'm not trying to start an argument here, but this is a forum where we discuss things Wicked related, and as the matter was brought up by several other members I thought I would add my two cents. I dislike liars very much, especially when it's over something as ridiculous as an opinion on a performer in a musical.
