Its pritty good, I wonder why she doesnt mention that she knows Victoria Matlock, does anybody know if they are not on good terms, and doesnt she know SJB? But otherwise its great.

I'm not quite sure about Julia and Victoria Matlock on or not on Good Terms . But I do know that Julia knows SJB well, she told me that she learnt from SJB when she was preparing for the WICKED National Tour.

Good Interview :) She sounds like a doll, I'm glad shes having fun playing Elphaba on Broadway

awww that was really cute!

julia seems like such a sweetie!

and that's cool, I never noticed she too has green eyes- green eyes look tres awesome with the green skin (part of the reason I've always thought idina looked so great green)

I love that woman. That was a cool video. Glad they taped it. So funny that she said some of the same things Shoshana Bean did when they shot Shoshana's behind the scenes video. And now i also know how they do such fast costume changes. I love Wicked.

I love Julia, she is so cool. "It looks like I'm about to eat 4 children"

And I thought I couldn't possibly love her anymore than I do. I'm so lucky I got a chance to see her in the show on tour.. now this really makes me want to see it again on Broadway, but I don't think I'll ever get that chance.

Her performance on tour made me completely forget about the OBCR. It was like "Idina-Who?"... I just loved her!

I wish I could have met her at the stage door though... at the time i didn't know there was such a thing.

i enjoy her disregard of the places call to show the quick change ensemble costume. The whole thing had me cracking up, and who knew that there was printing on the "what is this feeling" letters

Awesome video! I really want to see her now.

that's kinda cool. that was odd though to hear the 15 minute call and see how far along they were. I'm usually ready to go by 15 if I'm in a show. just because I like to have some calm before I go on. that's crazy that the audience is sitting in the threatre waiting for the show to start and Elpahaba's basically not ready yet.

Yeah. My heart was actually sort of beating faster because I was worried she was going to be late. :-0

I know. They called 5 minutes and she wasn't even in her costume yet. I didn't think she was going to make it. She didn't seem in a rush or stressed because of the time at all.

I think you're forgetting she's not in the ten-minute long opening number. She really doesn't have to hurry considering the 15-minute warning is really her 25. And she still made it by Glinda's line "Let us be grateful".

Julia really is so sweet; I love how she makes everyone stop in and say hi because she's so far away from everyone.

Cute video! And now I feel better knowing I'm not the only dork who felt anxious when they kept calling times and she wasn't ready yet.

"Why aren't her lines on here? Oh right, because this is MY letter..."

She's amazing

still for me even if my entrance isn't until late in the first act I still worry not being ready to go at the top of the show. maybe that's something that changes when you get to the point of having dressers, hair people and make-up artist helping you get ready. It must make one feel very important.
