I love Wikipedia!!! lol.

Wikipedia isn't the most reliable source. Anyone can submit anything.

I know! It's so entertaining! lol.

Snowie told us that Michelle was leaving, and she is always right!

i promise you. she is leaving. i was told it by a reliable source.

LOL

I :heart: you

I love u too MOM! *huggles*

"Thank Goodness!"

oiy....confusing threads in here.

I Love the Fact that Jenna will be going to Broadway!!! Does anyone know if she will still be the Elphaba U/S?

I will be quite upset if she's not. She IS Elphaba! (well 4 me atleast)

As of right now, it is not in the cards for her to understudy Elphaba, since they already have both a second cover and a standby for her (the Glinda standby understudies Nessa because there is only one other understudy for her.) I am told, however, that it is a possibility, just not likely.

:cry1: but...but...i love her as Elphaba. :cry1:

does anyone have a picture or audio of her as elphaba?

I have her singing DG. PM about it.
