Popular always seems to have the most improve and funny moments. It’s just the Galindas going nuts and the Elphabas trying their hardest not to break character.😂🤣
Exactly! I wonder how often the Galindas get into the song with the intention to make their Elphaba break character 🤣 Must be such a fun scene to perform.
@@lonelylittledot if you watch Lindsay Mendez's Fly Girl vlog (I think that's where I heard/saw it from), they give a lot of freedom in that scene for Glinda. And in general, the producers/directors of Wicked always want the Elphaba and Glindas to make the character their own, instead of trying to be something that they think the producers/directors want. I think that's one of the biggest reasons why people always have their own different favourite Elphaba/Glindas! (and Fiyero of course) And it is true about Glinda/Galindas trying to make Elphabas break character in those scenes hahaha I think I heard it from some interview of Katie Rose Clarke or somewhere else like Stars in the House with Seth Rudetsky & James in the interview where Katie Rose Clarke and Lindsay Mendez both star in
In Donna and Allis duo of glinda and elphie Donna actually breaks character and starts laughing because alli makes Galinda so goofy the slime tut is up on yt my fave duo 🩷💚
I love all Fiyeros but Ryan McCartan's "excUSE mE. I happen to be GENUINELY self-absorbed and-" **tosses hair** "DEEPLY shallow." takes me out EVERY TIME
My favorite two moments here have to be 1) Fiyero taking a step after Elfaba to apologize. I always thought that line was meant to be a little flirtatious, with no intended malice, but Elfie is offended. Knowing what we eventually learn about Fiyero's character him having a moment of discomfort over having upset someone seems appropriate. 2) The second was Galinda having a moment of hesitation with the hat. Galinda isn't initially portrayed as an especially kind or tolerant person, but that usually comes from a place of self centeredness. She is pursuing her goals and doesn't much care about the impact it has on others. The hat thing is meanness for the sake of meanness. Any clues that Galinda isn't a total mean girl is I think the right way to go.
Well said! I never saw Fiyero's line as flirtatious (like the idea, though!), but not as mean-spirited either. I always thought it was just a speaking-before-he-thinks kind of situation - after all, she had just yelled at him for, as he sees it, no reason; so it would make sense to me that he would instinctively respond with a teasing comment.
Kristen Chenowith's final show, that version of Popular is an absolute HOOT (and that For Good is highly emotional OH MY GOD)... and then I just love Kara Lindsay being absolutely chaotic (I've loved her since Newsies, she's just wonderfully weird)
You're right! Especially that Shanon was an understudy, so this was probably not something that Emma was used to. What I find especially fascinating about Emma's performance is that she really brings out the 'weird girl' in Elphaba. Most Elphabas I've seen are very normal, save the green skin; but Emma's Elphaba is like this one weird girl from your middle school class who you're kind of reluctant to befriend because she's just... really weird. Not sure if I love it or hate it, but it's definitely fascinating!
YESSSSSSSS That is one of the cutest and most heartfelt Elphaba reactions that I’ve ever seen! And it’s just so perfect too omfg 😭😭🙏🏾💚💚 As fiery, headstrong, and passionate as Elphaba is, I love seeing people play up the fact that at the end of the day, she’s still just a girl, you know? 🥺🥺
The way Norbert/Fiyero sounds genuinely angry when Idina/Elphaba says she wishes she could be beautiful, like "how dare they make you feel like you're not beautiful"
@@lonelylittledot I'm just a sucker for the original cast and love to point out how perfect it was, I guess. The best thing they could do for the 20th anniversary this year is bring Idina and Kristin back for the anniversary performance the 30th of October. (Yes, Idina has proven multiple times she can still sing the song in the original key - and I think that she'd do great with Broadway level preparation)
One day I want to do the whole “popular scene” just so I can add my own flare and lesbian undertones. Like the whole “pink goes good with green, oh Elfie, you’re beautiful” “*nervous* I have to go” would just be so perfect.
You may have gotten this one and I just missed it but there’s a boot where right after “is it true you were her friend?” one of the ensemble goes “jesus, glinda?!”
@@ryan3136 HAHAHAHA you're right! I've just never noticed that before, I love it. Thanks for pointing it out. If I end up making a part 2, I'll definitely include it!
Kyle Dean Massey and Hannah Corneau are amazing together - I especially adore their lion cub scene, and KDM's ''you've been Galinda-fied''/''toss toss'' are perfect.
There's one moment from a recorded performance I saw (that stars Taye as Fiyero) from 2004 I think, where after Frex says, "Take it AWAY!", Elphaba's mother Melena (who's lying on the bed) holds her arms up as though she wants to hold baby Elphaba. A small detail but from a narrative perspective, it adds to the backstory for why Elphie keeps the little green bottle.
O.M.G. ok. 00:10 - LOVE IDINA, she's my queen. Love that choice. 01:24 - that little "yaassss" move, I adored that ! 01:30 - she bitch slapped me awake too, DAAAMMMN. 01:33 - his whole "can you believe this bitch?" aura, I am here for it. 01:55 I have never seen a Fiyero do that before, I like that. I think it adds more to his character and then it's not too much of a surprise when Elphaba calls him out on his whole fake persona. 02:19 - I also haven't seen a Galinda do that. I like that too. 03:32 - that is so me and my sister 05:45 - I LOVE Harry Potter and I LOVE Luna so I appreciate the Nargles comment :) 05:53 - omfg me and my friends backstage getting ready to sing an A for literally 3 seconds. 06:08 - is that Julia ? Anyways, I just love that Elphaba is so genuinely lost and confused by the toss toss 07:44 - oh I love Kristin !! 07:55 - that whole wand thing, I. AM. HERE. FOR. IT. I loved Elphaba yeeting that thing as far away as possible 08:50 - I'm all for insecureness and angst and the fact that she was SO NERVOUS TO LOOK AT HER REFLECTION. Ugh, I'm crying. 09:57 - total "I'm gonna say what I have to say and no one is gonna interrupt me" vibes, I like that. 10:29 - I HAVE ALSO NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE. I love romance and this slight choice just made me MELT (I did not mean to do that, pff) 10:32 - I felt that. Yep. 10:34 - THAT WAS ACTUALLY FUCKING HILARIOUS 11:01 - Elphaba's face just SCREAMS "Oh shit !" And I love it ! 11:34 - I like that. I think you can really see there what Galinda talked about not 5 minutes ago, she's losing Fiyero (well, he was kind of never hers but sorta ? You know what I mean) 11:44 - HIS FACE OF "it's not just me who feels this way" (is that Derek or Ryan?) Whoever it is, I LOVE IT !!!! 12:01 - them just getting lost in each other for a moment, YES ! 12:24 - PFFFF. They are both just like "you're seeing this shit too right?" I love it. 12:36 - awwww, she's adorable. 12:48 - how they both just leaned their heads towards each other, ugh ! Adorable ! 13:09 - AAAWWW 13:31 - He's just like "I'm finally with her" and I LOVE IT !!! I wanna cry. I'm crying. I'm out of tears. 13:37 - He's like "please touch me/I want to feel you" and she's like "oh my God, he really does love me this is actually happening" (and Kerry's smile is so beautiful !) 13:44 - DAAMN. Its so sexy yet gentle and I love it ! 14:01 - that audience is me when I watched Wicked for the first time. 14:08 - I've always thought the same thing so actually seeing her react this way makes perfect sense and I like it. 14:38 - I agree, DG in German is actually amazing as well 15:02 - it is man. 15:23 DAMN ! She's like "this is mine and I'm taking it and enjoying it" and I love it. I love his mphf too, like he didn't expect it but isn't gonna complain. 15:27 - daaang. Gotta hand it to them tho, great way to stay in the moment while the applause dies. 15:56 - ok, Norbert and Idina, UGH I LOVE THEM ! I also always loved his hand shaking when he says her name, like it angers and frustrates him that not only does he find her beautiful, but she IS beautiful. 18:12 - Idina wiping her tears away, just ugh. But also, I'm thinking about this moment outside of it being Kristin's last show. I feel like it makes sense for Glinda to be crying cause she thinks she just lost Fiyero and she knows that somehow she's gonna lose Elphaba. Elphaba is also sad but she is a little stronger in hiding the way she feels so she's the one comforting Glinda and in a way it could also be an apology. Elphaba knows what's to come, Glinda doesn't. 19:04 - I have never seen that either. Ugh, such a beautiful way to seal the "I still love you and always will" message. 19:12 - her smile of "I know where to take this and you and I both know where this is going". I love it. Thank you SO MUCH for making this video. It's fun to see the actors' different takes of the characters and make these small choices that can impact so much. I loved this 💚💚💚
Awww thank you so much for appreciating my nerdiness! ❤ 01:55 I've seen it with a few other Fiyeros (definitely Richard Blake, don't remember who else), but it was never this apparent. 05:45 *proud Hufflepuff beaming* 06:08 yep, it's Julia! 07:44 ikr! She's just so effortlessly hilarious in everything she does. What an icon... 11:34 Yes, exactly! 11:44 It's Ryan. Oh, I WISH I could get my hands on a bootleg with Derek... 12:36 Eden is probably the dorkiest Elphaba I've seen, she's so cute! 13:31 you and me both, sister... I think chemisty-wise, Christine & Justin are my favorite Fiyeraba 14:38 are you by any chance a native speaker? 18:12 yes, absolutely! This being Kristin's last show is just another knife through my heart. 19:04 Yes! I need more love for Scarecrow!Fiyero. Thank you for sharing with me your enthusiasm (wink)! No promises, but there might be a Part 2 on the way :D
@@lonelylittledot 05:45 - Ravenclaw here :) 14:38 - I'm not a native speaker. I am a native speaker for Spanish tho so sorry if my English is a little sloppy. Omg 😱💚 I'll keep my fingers crossed !
@@celeste2025 Haha, don't worry, I think your English's totally fine - besides I'm not a native speaker either (neither in German nor in English). And thank you - if I end up finishing Part 2, you can expect a special shoutout 😀
idk if it's just the version i saw or me being queer but i've always felt like elphaba and glinda both had way more chemistry with each other than either did with fiyero like i'll admit that elphi had a thing for him but glinda was doing it completely for show and the connection they had with each other i mean... one short day... two best friends like come on that was so gay there was so much gay and then elphi leaves with fiyero without even telling her girlfriend she's alive? b r u h
Girls can be friends without it being romantic. And they both clearly pine over Fiyero the entire time. So ...yeah, some of it is just your own preference leaking through (and vise versa for other people's perspectives).
@@Jetrowdy I can imagine! I've only seen it live once (in London, 2017), and I remember how, hearing the first note of the ouverture, I immediately started bawling - that's how excited I was to finally get to experience it live. I'd really love to see it again. Such a magical experience!
This whole video blows me away!! The sheer TALENT of everyone involved in this show ever, it’s incredible. Also I love Jenny’s Popular so much 😆 And if 14:31 is Ryan, is 14:22 also Ryan? The clips move so fast (the slime tutorials are to blame, not you) and I can’t tell
I'm so happy you included Alison and Gina! They were part of the first cast I saw back in 2013/14 (if memory serves to correct), and I absolutely loved them! 💙💙💙
I'm not entirely sure I heard it all correctly (Me: has learned German for over 10 years. Also me: still can't catch lines from a mediocre recording XD), but, more or less, he says: "Vielleicht dachte mein Zugführer beim Grün kann er Gas geben", which means "Maybe my driver thought, with all the green, that he can step on the gas." Liebe Deutsche Zuschauer, korrigiere mich bitte, falls ich mich irre 😅
This makes me want to translate Wicked Brazil so everyone can also enjoy the great moments they have, the main actresses literally became best friends because of the show
2:28 I can never tell if Elphie says to Galinda, "Listen, my sister and I were talking about you just now" or if she says, "Nessa and I were talking about you." I think the show's script uses those phrases interchangeably, but it really doesn't change the meaning.
alsjdfh 14:14 i love seeing aaron and alistair next to each other!! i got to see Alistair 2 months ago and he was amazing but i was so struck bc his singing voice sounds EXACTLY like aarons??? even tho he's british???????
@@lonelylittledot omg tysm!!!! you should later include (if you have the recording lol) Ginna Claire Mason plopping on the bed when Elpheba says "this is never gonna work"! It was a normal thing but i feel like no one even acknowledges GCM!
I need the “now for this moment” scene to be re-coregraphed to be a bit more dynamic cause it sounds wonderful but there’s just something so awkward about watching two people singing into eachothers mouths while feeling eachother up for like 3 minutes and nothing else 😅
One of my favorites is the time that Fiyero says "Maybe the driver saw green and thought it meant go." and the Elphaba flipped him off. Killed me - I definitely don't think she was supposed to do that 🤣
13:47 ok if you want crowd response in the Brazilian version you should definitely watch defying gravity from the last show. I'm telling you, the crowd sang along with Mira in "E ouçam bem a minha voz: o mágico e toda Oz agora vão me ver VOAAARR!" (Equivalent to "And nobody in all of Oz, no wizard that there is or was is ever gonna bring ME DOWWWN!") I get chills and CRY every time I see it. It's priceless. Also, Fabi Bang's "Popular" will always be my favorite, I love her kajshshahhah 💘
@@lonelylittledot I don't know where you could find the whole show, but there are a few clips! Popular: ua-cam.com/video/YPu404D-D3w/v-deo.html (Fabi sambando as glinda is precious ♡) Defying Gravity: ua-cam.com/video/VhZA699NriI/v-deo.html (The audience started singing even before what I said! Chills!) For Good: ua-cam.com/video/ZL_13sUXOSo/v-deo.html (They're both so emotional omg I love them)
At 7:56 I could only imagine the wand hitting some off stage 🤣🤣 I would feel sorry for the person but just hearing someone offstage say watch where you swing that
Does anyone know who plays Elphaba at 10:00? She’s really great and I keep seeing her (they took her bootleg off the other day 😭) but I don’t know her name!
Popular always seems to have the most improve and funny moments. It’s just the Galindas going nuts and the Elphabas trying their hardest not to break character.😂🤣

Allis is 0:51 seconds in btw x
And 4:21
I love all Fiyeros but Ryan McCartan's "excUSE mE. I happen to be GENUINELY self-absorbed and-" **tosses hair** "DEEPLY shallow." takes me out EVERY TIME
I know right 😂 Ryan is def one of my favorite Fiyeros. The only problem I have with him is that I can't help but think of JD when he speaks 😅
time stamp?
time stamp????
@@sirisso3974 dont think its real lol. Thats just the vibe he had.
I saw him in west side story and made eye contact with him a lot though out the show and I I could see was him as JD but still
That’s what you get when actors are actually comfortable on stage
alison luff throwing the wand off stage is one of my favorite parts it cracks me up every time the way she just yeets it and points
I know! I love how Gina facepalms and Alison is like "there, I fixed it for you!" :''')
That’s the 1st time I’ve ever seen an Elphaba grab the wand at all, and the fact she did a finger gun afterwards was hilarious to me!!!😂

If this was a try not to laugh challenge I'm sure we all lost
Okay but alli mauzeys acting choices are top notchhh
God I love Emma Hunton. Like 3:34 is a masterclass of being present and taking what you receive from your partner.
You're right! Especially that Shanon was an understudy, so this was probably not something that Emma was used to.

I just love how I can tell Ryan Mccartan's Fiyero by his hair (and his voice bc I'm obsessed with the Heathers soundtrack...)
Awww when Elphie tells her story to Galinda and was almost in tears when she finishes.
I know, right 😭 She's such a sweetheart.
14:07 The ACTING here 😭 Knowing the impact that first kiss had on Elphaba.
YESSSSSSSS That is one of the cutest and most heartfelt Elphaba reactions that I’ve ever seen! And it’s just so perfect too omfg 😭😭🙏🏾💚💚
As fiery, headstrong, and passionate as Elphaba is, I love seeing people play up the fact that at the end of the day, she’s still just a girl, you know? 🥺🥺

I know, right? I adore Laurel Harris, her Elphaba is just so sassy!
Agdgfdhsa I recognized Alli Mauzey instantly bc of how many times I've watched that slime tutorial-
Donna Vivino too.
Kristen's final For Good got me
1:29 Love that windup with her books.
It’s like “and she winds up with the pitch… Aaaand BYE BYE FINGERS!!!”
idk if it's just the version i saw or me being queer but i've always felt like elphaba and glinda both had way more chemistry with each other than either did with fiyero like i'll admit that elphi had a thing for him but glinda was doing it completely for show and the connection they had with each other i mean... one short day... two best friends like come on that was so gay there was so much gay and then elphi leaves with fiyero without even telling her girlfriend she's alive? b r u h
Girls can be friends without it being romantic. And they both clearly pine over Fiyero the entire time. So ...yeah, some of it is just your own preference leaking through (and vise versa for other people's perspectives).
im wheezing im obsessed with this
This is seriously the highest praise I could ever receive. Thank you ☺
13:12 makes me have chills, she's so amazing
This video should just be all of alli mauzey's popular bc it KILLS me
Just saw Wicked a couple days ago and this was recommended 💚 ty for curing my Wicked fatigue I can’t wait to see this show again 😭
Ah, lucky you! Where did you see it? ^^
@@lonelylittledot I saw it in Tucson on tour! Talia Suskauer and Allison Bailey were Elphie and Glinda they were awesome 🥺
@@Jetrowdy Sounds lovely! Was this your first time seeing Wicked?
@@lonelylittledot yes!! Ive loved Wicked since 2017 and seeing it live was such a dream come true
@@Jetrowdy I can imagine! I've only seen it live once (in London, 2017), and I remember how, hearing the first note of the ouverture, I immediately started bawling - that's how excited I was to finally get to experience it live. I'd really love to see it again. Such a magical experience!
This is exactly why I love live theater
18:11 this was my mom’s best friend’s favorite song. He passed away nearly 11 years ago and is probably my biggest inspiration in life💗💗
This whole video blows me away!! The sheer TALENT of everyone involved in this show ever, it’s incredible. Also I love Jenny’s Popular so much 😆 And if 14:31 is Ryan, is 14:22 also Ryan? The clips move so fast (the slime tutorials are to blame, not you) and I can’t tell
Glad you liked it
Elphaba admitting the joke was good at 2:04 always gets a laugh out of me 😂
I'm so happy you included Alison and Gina! They were part of the first cast I saw back in 2013/14 (if memory serves to correct), and I absolutely loved them! 💙💙💙
13:37 is the only correct reaction to that situation
Tell me about it 😅
0:38 I thought my airpods were dying but it's just a sound effect
Omg, same! I thought my headphones were dying but I forgot they don’t make a sound when they die, I had to replay it.
Omg Ryan McCartan's riff was just ✨👌✨14:31
He probably has to be my fav Fiyaro besides the original cast
16:47 I just like this part a lot. Especially her pose at the end like a boss.
lilli cooper's got such a great wicked witch voice!
The fake cartwheel 5:13
Is that a Beetlejuice reference I smell?
Your sense of smell does not deceive you, my friend 😁
(me trying floorwork in dance class: well see, pros do it too!)
1:53 9:57 10:29 13:38 14:19 ✨aaron tveit✨
im watching all the videos and i love hannah corneau she is my favorite elphaba and brittney johnson is my favorite glinda
4:30 who is that EXTREMELY Deadpan Galinda? LOL 😂 😂😂🤣
Oh my word the best one was Kristin’s last performance that one brought me to tears 😭😭😭
Please I’ve been trying to find a Rachel show for forever 😭😭😭
YOU are a legend, I come back to those videos so many times !! Thank youuu sooooo much for putting soo much effort into these!!!!
I guess their improvising is pretty
Wicked
Ah yes, my kind of person 😁
The: tOsS tOsS OoOoOoOo YeAh ! Gets me every time!!
Aaaaah I love that you included some German passages as well!!
Of course 🥰 I used to study German and now I really miss it 😅
14:19 vocals so nice
yess kudos to you for including celine purcell one of my favesss
4:51 THE STRAP JDKSKS
@8:22 that ad lib was so smooth
Me totally not crying while watching this and like, remembering when I saw the musical with my dad.
Must be a beautiful memory!
@@lonelylittledot It was one of the best days of my life and the cast was amazing
7:55 to 8:07 is the best. “Wear the frock, it’s pretty!”
yes hannah’s vocals by far my favorite 🙌🏼🙌🏼
sorry but you're the latest comment, what did he say at 1:54 ?
it’s not English but the line is “maybe the driver saw green and thought it meant go”
I'm not entirely sure I heard it all correctly
(Me: has learned German for over 10 years. Also me: still can't catch lines from a mediocre recording XD), but, more or less, he says:
"Vielleicht dachte mein Zugführer beim Grün kann er Gas geben",
which means
"Maybe my driver thought, with all the green, that he can step on the gas."
Liebe Deutsche Zuschauer, korrigiere mich bitte, falls ich mich irre 😅
You should see Chantal Janzen's portrayal as Dutch G(a)linda. It is the most amazing, hilarious, chaotic thing ever. Her "Popular" gives me life!
Thanks for the recommendation! Do you know where I could find it?
@@lonelylittledot ua-cam.com/video/nAUgSP6SkoU/v-deo.html
Thanks! 😍
I agree, her "Popular" is amazing !!
I love Kara so so so much
These videos are gold
This makes me want to translate Wicked Brazil so everyone can also enjoy the great moments they have, the main actresses literally became best friends because of the show
Toss toss oohhhh yeaahhhhhh, is my new favourite line XD
2:28 I can never tell if Elphie says to Galinda, "Listen, my sister and I were talking about you just now" or if she says, "Nessa and I were talking about you." I think the show's script uses those phrases interchangeably, but it really doesn't change the meaning.
alsjdfh 14:14 i love seeing aaron and alistair next to each other!! i got to see Alistair 2 months ago and he was amazing but i was so struck bc his singing voice sounds EXACTLY like aarons??? even tho he's british???????
Can someone please list the performers/performances for each clip!!!!

Please correct me if you notice I've made a mistake somewhere!
@@lonelylittledot thank you so much!
@@lonelylittledot you are the queen of everything thank you
@@SM-hl6hh Awww 🥺
@@lonelylittledot omg tysm!!!! you should later include (if you have the recording lol) Ginna Claire Mason plopping on the bed when Elpheba says "this is never gonna work"! It was a normal thing but i feel like no one even acknowledges GCM!
love to see some Hannah Corneau appreciation in this 2022
I am absolutely obsessed with her! Her vocal quality is so unique; I would gladly listen to her sing a phone book.
This was so good! I laughed sm, thank you for sharing!!!
Also, who's the Glinda at 4:15? She is adorable omg. And the one that breaks down at 13:07?
Thank you for the kind words, so glad you enjoyed it! 🥰
4:15 is Lindsay K. Northen, and 13:07 is Gina Beck 😇
@@lonelylittledot thanks for replying :) The one with Lindsay is Caroline Bowman? Didn't recognized any of them!
Yes it is 😇 They're all hard to recognize because my free video editor reduces every video's quality to "filmed with a dusty potato" 😅
The sound effect for Brittney’s delivery 🤣🤣🤣🤣
1:26 that is 100% a 1 STRIKE
I need the “now for this moment” scene to be re-coregraphed to be a bit more dynamic cause it sounds wonderful but there’s just something so awkward about watching two people singing into eachothers mouths while feeling eachother up for like 3 minutes and nothing else 😅
hopefully you're not sitting with your familyy
"Babe. Babe you gotta stop" lmao
yeah girl
One of my favorites is the time that Fiyero says "Maybe the driver saw green and thought it meant go." and the Elphaba flipped him off. Killed me - I definitely don't think she was supposed to do that 🤣
13:47 ok if you want crowd response in the Brazilian version you should definitely watch defying gravity from the last show. I'm telling you, the crowd sang along with Mira in "E ouçam bem a minha voz: o mágico e toda Oz agora vão me ver VOAAARR!" (Equivalent to "And nobody in all of Oz, no wizard that there is or was is ever gonna bring ME DOWWWN!") I get chills and CRY every time I see it. It's priceless.
Also, Fabi Bang's "Popular" will always be my favorite, I love her kajshshahhah 💘
Would you happen to know where I could find that show?
@@lonelylittledot I don't know where you could find the whole show, but there are a few clips!

a fabi eh uma das minhas glindas favoritas aaaaa ela eh perfeita
@@cscmaria1331 simmm ela é muuito carismatica cara, da primeira vez q vi ja amei demais

Alli's closing show for popular was PEAK feral chihuahua Galinda
At 7:56 I could only imagine the wand hitting some off stage 🤣🤣 I would feel sorry for the person but just hearing someone offstage say watch where you swing that
at 3:02 glinda's laugh is the same malody as the unlimited theme, idk if it was intentional but it was genius
At 8:37 the way Elphaba looks at Glinda... gay
this is like so beautiful thank you
notice how glinda and elphaba have way more chemistry and history than elphaba and fiyero
The first Elphaba was talking in E flat
Love you for this
Aww, thank you for appreciating my stupid shenanigans 😅🥰
Anaheim native here so I gotta give it up to our town hero Eden
Ah, that's so cool! Warsaw (Poland) native here, so - gotta give it up to not a single Polish person on Broadway ever :'')
14:31 RYAN❤️❤️
9:30 Richard h Blake!
This is so lovely video!! Who is Elphaba at 16:15? She is so sad and insecure, perfect portrayal.
So glad you liked the video! ^^
16:15 is Laurel Harris. She was an understudy, but still one of my favorite Elphabas!
Do you mind telling me the actors for 3:34? :D tyvm!!!
It's Emma Hunton and Shanon Mari Mills 😇
I feel like the elphaba here broke character 6:36
Yeah, I think so too - but it was hilarious; and I think it made Annaleigh break character too :')
@@lonelylittledot I loved it that's the beauty of live theater anything can happen
3:22 Fiyero and I are going to be married
3:25 ahhhhhhHhHhHh

Does anyone know who plays Elphaba at 10:00? She’s really great and I keep seeing her (they took her bootleg off the other day 😭) but I don’t know her name!
It's Laurel Harris 🥰
Omg thank you it was driving me insane!
Hanna!! 💗💗
