re: Best Elphaba

I've only seen Shoshana in the role, and I thought she was kinda weird and not that great. Does that count as a negative 1/2 point?

Julia Murney-I thought that she understood the character on deeper levels then the other girls.

re: Best Elphaba

When I saw Austin do Elphie in the sit-down Dallas, Texas Production he was good, but then he mahorly cracked on NGD...I was like wtf. He also gave sexy eyes to the lion when they killed it.

The rain we knew is a thing of the past -
deep-delving, dark, deliberate you would say
browsing on spire and bogland; but today
our sky-blue slates are steaming in the sun,
our yachts tinkling and dancing in the bay
like racehorses. We contemplate at last
shining windows, a future forbidden to no one.

What is your dream role?
My dream role would be to be myself. To be performing at the Hollywood Bowl and to have an audience there just to see me, as Stephanie. They are there because they like what I do as a singer, an artist and a person (the last being the most important). I enjoy escaping and portraying other characters, but to be accepted and wanted as yourself... that's amazing! --Stephanie J. Block Just one of the many reasons I admire and respect Stephanie!!

The best Elphaba hasn't been born yet.
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

re: Best Elphaba

Stephanie J. Block; she has a depth and a, well, "darkness," to her voice that I think fits Elphaba's personality very well. Though she did a wonderful job in the first act, it was as the adult Elphaba, in Act II, that I really think she came into her own (especially in "No Good Deed"--dear LORD but she scared me at one point in that song...and then broke my heart the next moment).

Very off topic, but -

bardolator, surely the O'Malley Family motto in your sig should be Irish, not Latin. ? ? ?

I believe Suri Cruise will go down in history as the best Elphaba.

re: Best Elphaba

Julia Murney - shows the best depth as an actress playing this role and her singing is amazing (we knew that!)
#45

re: Best Elphaba

Roscioli. She makes all the vocals seem absolutely effortless -- she's the only Elphaba that can nail the end of "Defying Gravity" without having to search around for the notes. It's just there. And that's how all of her vocals are. She also plays a very mysterious and lost-in-her-own-brain Elphaba, which is so accurate to Maguire's character.

I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.
