I'm being redundant with everything already posted... but Lisa is absolutely AMAZING!!! I have seen her 12 times now, most of them planned because I knew she was going on. A few times, however, I showed up at the theater not expecting her and felt like I had hit the jackpot when I saw her name on the "At this performance" board. If she ever takes over the role of Elphaba, I'm going to have to get a second job because I am going to be at the Gershwin way too often (even more often than I am now!).

Lisa is phenomanal! Just Amazing! Seriously, put this girl as a lead somewhere she is AMAZING! Amazing acting and singing and is a quite a looker! And i haven't even seen her live! Live she must be crazy amazing! She should take over anywhere, if she can't wait to take over after Kerry on Bway, she should take over for Dee in Chicago as she must have great chemestry with Annaleigh! GO LISA!

The only way I will go to Chicago again when Annaleigh replaces Kate F (Will Annaleigh be there when they close Wicked Chicago? Hm random thought) is if Lisa is alongside her as full-time Elphaba. The only way, and even that might not be enough, if when I see the show on Broadway Lisa is on for Steph.
Please bring Lisa to Chicago.

I'm really selfish in saying this but I really hope Lisa stays in NY. If not in WICKED than in something else.

Im definitely a wicked chicago goer and i love dee to death...but if dee takes the next step in her career, i would love nothing more than to see Lisa take her place. I absolutely LOVE lisa and she deserves the full time role

I most definitely agree. Sorry, Chicago-goers.

Personally, I really don't think Lisa would go to Chicago, but you never know.
I'd really like it if she took over for Kerry though!

In my ideal life, Lisa will take over for Carmen on tour just in time for wicked to come to schenectady!

(not that I don't love Carmen

I don't think she would either and I too really hope she takes over for Kerry.

Well i never thought annaleigh would come to chicago, and look where shes headed! chicago! Lisa told me she definitely wants to continue with the show, so hopefully she will be full time elphie somewhere =] i hope so

Lisa's wanted Elphaba since the show started previews, so hopefully she takes it on full time soon. I think she deserves it! I'd prefer if she'd stay in New York though...it'd be easier for me to see her.

Thank you wickedlover527 for those magical and awesome videos of Lisa. Makes me want to get on a plane right now and see her as Elphaba before SJB who I love too returns. I usually don't like judging from You-Know-Where videos but the sound quality of these were superb. Her W&I was absolutely wonderful especially the first one from Wicked Day. Haven't heard one sung that magical in L.A. since Eden left. If the producers are looking for someone to finish out the L.A. run I say give us Lisa as Elphaba.

As much as I want Steph to get back to the show ASAP I am now dying to see Lisa go on on Sunday..just so I can see her again before she leaves (if it's true).

Lisa was incrediblly amazing as Elphaba. I saw her this past Halloween and she was a wonder to behold. Her Defying Gravity was near perfection. Here's to hoping she gets the role on Broadway after Kerry!!

I was searching through old threads and came across. I think Lisa was one of best Elphabas that Wicked had and I still miss her a lot. Let's spread the love!

I saw Lisa 5 times in two different cities. 4 times in NYC,2 with Annaleigh and 2 with Lindsay Northen and 1 in Chicago with Annaleigh(their first night).
Lots of love for Lisa and I miss her. Do get to see her in random benefits and shows in NYC though so it's not too bad.

I saw Lisa's second time going on as standby and was one of the first people on here to experience her Elphaba (I even made this thread haha). I seriously loved her so much and knew I was witnessing one amazing performer.

I was looking through old threads and I found this one. I'm very happy that Lisa has go one to being a leading lady on Broadway by playing Donna Sheridan in
Mamma Mia. In case no one saw this video that I posted about a little more than a year ago, here's her singing "
The Winner Takes it All":
