This made me happy of May 30th: Ben Vereen(Wizard) Rue Mclannahan(Madame Morrible) They will replace George Hearn as OZ and Carol Shelley as Morrible, don't belive me read here www.playbill.com/news/article/91779.html. This made me angry: They are not replacing Glinda, Fiyero or Elphaba because I think those 3 replacements were so-so. Here's my dream cast for those leads if they replace those dreaded replacements: Vanessa Williams ....Elphaba Deborah Gibson....Glinda Hunter Foster.....Fiyero In case you don't know the so-so replacements that replaced Chenoweth, Joey McIntyre(he replace Leo Norbert Butz) and Menzel(due to a rib-cage accident): Jessica-Laura Thompson...Glinda Shoshana Bean..Elphaba David Ayers....Fiyero |

I've modified my dream cast and instead of Joey Fatone, its Hunter Foster. I like Hunter Foster in everything! Deborah Gibson was an old 80's singer and recently on tour on "Cinderella" with Eartha Kitt. She has an awesome voice for Glinda and peronally I love Deborah!

I heard many rumours but the real replacements are Mclcannahan and Vereen. Those names I've listed were my dream replacements for Elphaba, Glinda and Fiyero.

I'd be very interested in seeing Vanessa Williams as Elphaba!

^probably because not a lot of people like it. me included Well, bully for you  ;D The Scarlet Pimpernel - no matter the incarnation - is one of my very favorite shows (and having Doug Sills all over the place never hurt any show!) Out of Wildhorn's stuff, it's definitely my favorite, hands down. May I ask why you don't like it? I know a lot of people don't like it, but I never understand why! |

Wow. How come Wicked gets 2 topics in two different sections of the forum. Maybe we should just make a single Wicked topic for all Wicked news, reviews, love and else wise.

I'd be very interested in seeing Vanessa Williams as Elphaba! For now, we can imagine along with Deborah Gibson as Glinda and Hunter Foster as Fiyero |

I remeber the first time I saw pictures from Wicked, I wanted to cry because of how Fiyero looked. i read the book awhile before the play was out and I remeber loving that he was covered in blue gems. But I read an interview once with Norbert saying how it looked like he was just bruised the farther back you got. which made sense. I miss them gems though...and the original Fiyero. It was one thing I didnt like change wise they did from the book to the play. Fiyero's personality. If youyr looking for the fiyero from the play, the closet thing in the book is avaric. I think thats how its spelled I think Megan will do well as Glinda  |
