yes yes this is very true.
And the proof is where?
How could she be the stand-by?
The Wicked Recycle System can't allow it.

She is sorta a recycle.
Isn't/wasn't she in the Chicago cast?
She's still a member of the Chicago cast.
I just saw her as the Witch's Mother in Wicked last week.
DiNoia would be recycled. She was a Swing in Chicago and was recently bumped up to one of the Elphaba u/s's.
Then she is part of the Wicked Recycle System.
Nevermind, then.
ugh i loathe the wicked recycle system
The only thing I like about this recycle system: i got the chance to see Megan and Sho on tour (who were fabulous) and now I'll get the chance to see Eden in LA. I do wish they'd find fresh blood though, especially since it sounds like Kerry is kicking butt in London (she did three shows while Idina was sick) but maybe they can recycle her to the US since she'd be new to us, but still fit into the recycle rule.
It's actually the telsey recycle system..not just wicked. And no, I am not bitter..I am just waiting for the chance to see a musical cast by his team that doesn't have at least 7 castmembers from "hairspray" "Rent" or "all shook up" in it..nothing to do with their talent but, there are hundreds of us waiting and by the time we can get a chance, we'll be 55.

This isn't true, jenn just put out a bulletin on myspace saying that this rumour of her going to LA as of now is false!
I for one love me some Jen! I worked with her on WWRY in Vegas and she's a sweetie and very talented!
kover22, by saying 'as of now,' does that mean she is at least up for the job?
This is quoted from Jennifers bulletin on myspace:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"so i know many of you have read about me being cast as the Elphaba standby in the new LA company of Wicked....
soooo, i just wanted to set the record straight that I'm NOT going to LA... as of now, i'm still a part of the Chicago company.
i'm not sure how the rumor may have started but if anything changes i'll let you know...
hope you are all well...
love jenny d"

She is a u/s in chicago, and I was lucky enough that Kristy Cates, Dee Roscioli were both sick that I could see her on 12/5/06, if she does come to L.A do not fret because she is phenominal.
She is not coming to LA. Julie Reiber will stand by for Elphaba and Courtney Corey will be the u/s.

Julie is going into Wicked?
She has a GREAT voice--absolutely love the girl...but I wish she wasn't doing Wicked.
Yep parks :) Julie Reiber is Elphaba standby for Wicked LA....once again she is Eden understudy awwww
yeah Julie!!!! I love her. Her and Eden together again awesome. I know who is glinda's u/s in LA. won't write it here until it's announced but, this girl is fantastic and looks like megan.
Don't you just love how people start a thread posting inaccurate information only to never be heard from again?
she is now the elphaba standy by in chicago
Julie will not be the stand by as of her myspace message:
Ok guys. First of all I would like to say THANK YOU!! You fans are the greatest and I appreciate your support so much. :)
Since I've gotten so many messages after posting my upcoming shows...and the fact that I'm leaving Nov. 11. I thought I'd just drop this to let you all know the deal. I was asked to stay on as a standby for another contract and I passed on that. I love this show and the role and hopefully I'll have my shot at it sometime soon, but guess it's not this time around.
I do not know who they are bringing in, so don't ask me. I'm sure you all will know before I do anyway.
So thanks again for all the support! I guess things can always change, so never say never, but for now that's the dealio.
All the best and hopefully we'll see you that week in October!
:) take care
Julie
