Since almost the entire cast is leaving in January, does anybody know who is going to be replacing them? When is Megan Hilty Leaving? I just want to know who is going to be playing the parts when I go to wicked on may 5, 2006. Thanks!

and the tour cast is leaving in march! ACKKKKKKKKK

Whoa! Then I'll get to see a different cast next summer! I can't wait until I get to see it again!

i think the touring cast will be quite interesting
having seen them twice,
i will have much comparisons to have to deal with

i hope someone familiar stays at least...
maybe the u/s...
who knows
i loved katie adams though!

i heard that SAYCON SENGBLOH was going to relplace
SHOSHANA . wow! almost all the leads are leaving except megan.

i did'nt know that the tourimg cast was leaving, i'm going to see them in tampa in january. who all frome the touring cast is leaving?

who is Saycon?

... :fryingpan:

No, really. Who is that? Pardon me, but I have yet to see WICKED live. My extent is a video fo the OBC and the audio of the current broadway cast. I only know who plays the main three in each, and no understudies, etc.

Saycon is the current standby for Elphaba on Broadway. She's gone on quite a few times.

This link has a photo of Saycon from a curtain call, but it's got a spoiler if you haven't seen the show.

The tour cast is leaving in March!?!? No way! Not faaiir! That's right before it comes to Boston!! So I can't see Steph?!

well yeah steph is leaving
but not the WHOLE tour cast..
we heard about kendra leaving and jenna.. cause most of their contracts are up

katie adams [u/s] is gone before december too..

so you might get a totally different cast.

So the new broadway cast will be......

And the new tour cast will be......

Nooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! I was hoping Jenna would stay and play Elphaba!!!! Darn it!!!!!! :cry:

Broadway

Saycon-Elphie
Jeffrey Kuhn-Fiyero

Has anyone heard either of them?

Jeffrey Kuhn is the current Boq ( i read that somewhere ) and Saycon is a stand by or understudy for Elphaba currently

saycon has a great voice. That's who i should be seeing. Does anybody know about ben, rue, who's playin nessa?, or megan?

I heard Ben and Megan and Michelle (Nessa) are leaving, but Rue is stayin'.

I heard the same thing about Ben and Michelle leaving.

*nod* Indeed.

i heard megan was stayin!

Where did you hear that. I only heard for sure that sho and ben and dave were leaving. I heard nothing of hilty, but just assumed she was leaving.

I want the tour cast to be Maria Eberline as Elphaba (currently u/s) and Emily Rozek to be Glinda (currently u/s)

Actually Robb Sapp is the current Boq. I saw him Nov. 9th and he's awesome. Jeffrey left a month ago i think.

i don't know if anyone else heard this but i was watcing MARTHA and LIZA MENILLI(sorry bout the spelling) and BEN V were on talking about the katrina benifit concert and she said something about play MORRIBLE ON BROADWAY.

just wondering if anyone heard that too.

i think she would be a great morrilbe. :mrgreen:

Liza Minelli? lol thats funny, isn't there a play about her? A Boy From Oz..I think. Stephanie J. Block played her in it with Hugh Jackman. =D

By the way, where is everyone getting this information, cause when I look on official websites, I get nothin'. I don't think we should hold any of this information seriously, unless you can give a real source. o-o My opinion.

I got my information from a site called Playbill.

Is it on Playbill? When I looked I ony found out about David's leave. Oh well.

well sho leaves for sure b/c she said so on her fanclub site

ITS FINAL
eden- elphaba
DERRICK WILLIAMS :]- fiyero
carol kane- madame morrible


wow they're all from the tour!

Great...I have never heard Eden ever, Carol Kane is pretty cool. But Derrick, I really didnt' like him as Fiyero. He just didn't fit the part well what with his personality. GREAT!!!! :disagree: :? :-( :cry:

you can hear eden's voice
in the broadway soundtrack of "Bklyn"
great musical

Sorry, that was me ^ *cheeky grin* What I meant was that I haven't heard Eden as Elphie.

Yay, I was pulling for Eden.

Hmm, Derrick... I don't really like him, but I haven't really liked anyone except Norbert, David was only passable, so I'm tough on the Fiyeros. Joey Mac can just go away and rot for all I care :mrgreen:.

I'm so mean.

Carol I only like because of the Princess Bride. So, good for her, even if she can't sing and is supposedly really standoffish.

Bring on the Chicago cast annoncements.

Oh joy. :?

I've never seen any of them. But I know I don't like Derrick...I dunno. Just lookin' at him he doesn't seem to fit the role. :? It's too bad Steph isn't the Elphie. :-( Where is she going anyway?

Who does Carol Kane play in Princess Bride, cause I recognize her, but I can't think of who the character is. :roll: Although I'm sure it would help if I watched the movie again. :lol1:

Since I saw Derrick and Carol (and met Derrick!), I have a great attachment to them, so I'm pretty pleased about this! As for Eden, I like what I've heard of her on the Brooklyn soundtrack and the like. She sounds a bit like Idina to me, which is good, and I prefer her to Shosh; hopefully I'll get to see her!

Carol Kane plays Miracle Max's (Billy Crystal) wife, they are both in heavy makeup and wigs, so not very recognizable. Miracle Max gives Inigo and Fezzik the potion to revive Wesley.

hows does derrick not look like he fits the role?


thats cool if someone saw him and said, i dont like his voice but yeah... originally in the book, wasnt fiyero black? and had all these weird scales or something?

Well for one, it has nothing to do with the fact that he's black. :? And Fiyero is tan with blue diamond tattoo-like markings all over his body.

And I don't know how to describe it, maybe it's because I'm stuck on David. Call me bias. :roll:

I'm so excited about Eden going to Broadway! She's amazing! Now if I could just talk my parents into going to NY...

Haha, I'm so excited I'll get to hear her!

Edit: And by hear I mean see. :roll:

What?! I'm happy about Eden and CK, but I really didn't like Derrick's singing.

I also don't see it as him being black. But kind of, cause I am really not liking his build, but Derrick can't help that. And the build is usually genetic. And I REALLY like Norbert, he is and always will be Fiyero. And Dave is just SO nice to look at. The others, like Kris is okay, hasn't got the *look* of Fiyero. I see Fiyero as Norbert. Medium build, dark brown/light brown hair, cocky, funny, and VERY good character actor.
