I feel like this is thoroughly deserved! Have a feeling this may mean Tucker is re-joining the London cast for the 10th anniversary.

Why would this mean that?

It doesn't necessarily mean it would but the timing is almost perfect for it, especially with Rachel's Broadway dates being extended slightly. It's been highly speculated, especially on the west end board where any tiny bit of news about Wicked sends us into a frenzy!

Good for Jenny. She's been part of SO many productions—I'm happy she's officially landed the Broadway full-time principal. I will probably swing by the Gershwin this fall to check her out.

I don't want to be rude to Jen, but I hope we get an entirely new actress to takeover after jen's contract expires.

EXACTLY. This production keeps recycling Elphaba's. But Jen is amazing, so I digress. I just need to go see Rachel for a third time because her performance is riveting

I saw Jenny as a standby on Broadway and she was absolutely fantastic, and I'm glad she's finally getting to lead on Broadway. Congrats, Jenny!

I've been wanting to see her for years! I'll have to get back to the Gershwin!

I went. She sound the best I ever heard her and I've seen her from when she was a standby in 2009 until her last show when she filled in for Caroline. Did all her normal riffs(no crazy stuff she will do on occasion).

Has she kept the "t" when saying gravity?

No. She went back to the American way of saying gravidy.
