Cristy wasn't bad, but she wasn't memorable. I loved Michelle's acting. I was very impressed with her WWotE. I can see why people are crazy over her playing Glinda.

New performers in bold:
Fiyero
1. Richard H. Blake- Great acting, he really fleshed out the character and made him more on par (in terms of a role) with Elphaba and Glinda
2. David Nathan Perlow- So surprised to have found a Fiyero who could actually deliver his lines in a way I'd never seen before. Made Fiyero a more interesting and sincere character than I'd seen before.
3. David Ayers- Absolutely loved his acting and dancing. Not a great voice but he embodied everything the character should be.
4. Sebastian Arcelus- Never really became Fiyero for me, but an ok voice.
5. Cliffton Hall- Didn't care too much for his acting at some points, but others were ok. Good energy though. More or less on-par with Sebastian though.

. . .

6. Kristoffer Cusick- annoying voice, boring acting, and lazy dancing

Madame Morrible
1. Carole Shelley- Matronly when necessary and absolutely evil when the time comes.

. . .

2. Randy Danson- Not as evil as I would have liked (haven't seen many who have been able to capture that as well as Carole) but a good performance.
3. Myra Lucretia Taylor- Very funny, yet still not over-acted. Perhaps not as evil as I would have liked.
4. Barbara Robertson- Alright portrayal but a little too over-acted for my tastes.
5. Jody Gelb- Not over-acted enough! I just wasn't feeling her and would have liked to see some energy.

The Wizard
1. Gene Weygandt- Very "Grandfatherly" and not quite so malicious
1.5. Richard Kline- Made the Wizard appealinng and showed how Elphaba could really be taken by him, but also showed hints of darkness. It's a tough toss-up between him and Gene for me.
2. George Hearn- Very sinister, fantastic voice, now that the Waltz is gone his lack of dancing doesn't matter much
3. David Garrison- A little more flighty than the others, but still very good. Great dancer.
4. Lee Wilkoff- Meh. Just meh.
5. Don Amendolia- Another "meh" for me, but I found myself leaning toward being annoyed with him.

Nessarose
1. Michelle Federer- Intense, sorrowful, amazing.
1.5 Michelle London- Wow, never thought someone could come so close to knocking Michelle off the top of my list but she was beautiful and had such a transition from the start of the show to WWotE. I was in love with her performance.
2. Brynn O'Malley- Very sweet and not exactly what I imagine for Nessa, but she convinced me with her portrayal.
3. Jenna Leigh Green- A little more bratty than I'd like, but still a great job.
4. DeeDee Magno Hall- Phenomenal. Not as intense or strong as I think Nessa should be, but wonderfully acted.
5. Heidi Kettenring- Too angry, too over-acted.

Boq
1. Logan Lipton- Great voice (for a Munchkin), and a quirky, and deep portrayal.
2. Ben Liebert- Kind of on par with Logan. Very funny with a good voice and a sincere performance.
3. Brad Weinstock- Nothing I didn't like about his performance, but I didn't love him like I loved Logan or Ben.
4. Stanton Nash/Jeffrey Kuhn- I like and dislike parts of their performance equally.
5. Dan Pacheco- Really tried to like him but I wasn't feeling him, then he was very disappointing during MotWH.

Dr. Dillamond
1. William Youmans- Just perfect. Pretty much the most goaty of all the Dillamonds.
2. Timothy Britten Parker/Tom Flynn- Nothing particularly good or bad. I think I like Tom a bit more though.
3. Martin Moran- Good enough in the role but a few things such as his sub-par bleating and hoof-stomping put him below Tim and Tom

. . .

4. K. Todd Freeman- Very boring, seemed passionless, didn't even do a goat voice, just didn't seem to be trying.

I agree with you on that. That's what my sister and her husband felt as well.

Yeah, I mean I guess I could give him the benefit of the doubt and say he was going for "aloof and careless" in his portrayal, but it really just looked like he didn't feel like being there. :/
