I apologize if this has been asked a hundred times, but does anyone know how long Kristin (and Idina for that matter) will be in Wicked? I heard Kristin is out in May to do an opera--does that mean she will return to the show later in the year, or is she out for good? I am planning a trip to NY this spring, and I would very much like to see the original cast.

Thanks!!

She was probably contracted for a year. And she does have a couple conflicts in that time.

I've also heard she shall return after her spring break- Thats the big reason why Laura Bell Bundy was asked to be the star replacement for Glinda. Idina hasnt set a date yet I dont believe or has any major conflicts like Kristen.

Just to clarify, Kristin is taking the first week in May off to do Candide with the New York Philarmonic and will return.

Thanks, everyone, for the info. I thought Kristin would be out more than just a week, so that's good. I just want to make sure I plan my trip so I will be able to see the original cast.

Thanks!!!

I have tickets for Feb 28th and I want to see Idina and Kristen badly. I've been worrying about them no being there since the day I received the tickets as a Christmas present. Does anyone know of any conflicts and scheduled days off for Saturday Feb 28th? Please say no!!!
