Is Wicked or The Wizard of Oz....cursed? — Page 2

"the one with the green girl" Hahaha, that's a good one, I like it.

All anyone can say is that its live theater, you cannot predict what could happen on any give night, at any given time.

KC had like a strained neck or something and wasn't it the hair flip, that would aggravate it? I think she had therapy and all that to help it, along with a neck brace.

Oh Paper Lanter, JoeKv99 feels the same way, but JoeKv99 didn't want to bring down Jesus lover's wrath.

Regarding the Kristin injury...didn't she have a hernia or something? She talked about it during her interview on Letterman. I know she said she got a hernia from the hair flipping...though if that was the cause of why she was in a bedazzled neck brace I'm not a hundred percent sure.

OMG! I was JUST thinking about this! We think alike! But seriously, I don't know if it's a "curse", but it sure is coincidental. Maybe, someday, when I'm in Wicked, just my presence will stop the curse. Because as Adam Pascal once said, "Thank God for me!"

Kristin's injury wasn't because of the hair toss, that just agrivated it.

But, as people have said, thats live theatre.
In the Lion King, Heather Headly (as Nala) broke her ankle during a performance. Her understudy was on vacation and the second understudy was out sick. An ensemble member went on as Nala but had to hold a script for the rest of the performance. An understudy was on as the giraffe, he took a misstep and fell and was rushed to the hospital. Someone was on the wrong mark when the back of the stage rose and she fell and had to be taken to the hospital. There have been a bunch of other injuries too, these are just off the top of my head.

And just remember Christina Applegate, she broke her foot TWIRLING AROUND A POLE, not doing anything particularly difficult or dangerous.

My friends and I tried this last year. It was kinda trippy and made me want to take a nap afterwards. Then we went to this website to see what the "experts" in this were saying, and there's definitely a lot more links between the 2 than I thought there was.
Dark Side of the Wizard of Oz
