Michelle Fereder Question

Posted: 5/8/05 at 12:19pm

I got this tape of clips of WICKED interviews and stuff and Michelle was being interviewed and she talked about a like 2 second quick change into Nessa, does she play someone else we all dont know about? Is she in No One Mourns The Wicked?

Sorry Emcee. Thats kinda cool. I thought thats what she meant. Is Boq in No One Mourns The Wicked too?

I think he is...

Everyone's in NOMTW except Elphaba and Morrible and the Wizard (though his voice is in it). Fiyero plays the lover.

I knew that Elphaba3, but thank you. I feel like such an idiot! I was like she has a two second quick change?!

Just wondering... how do you know the actor playing Fiyero also plays the lover?

[iwearshoes]

Posted: 5/8/05 at 12:48pm

thats what confused me too!

Posted: 5/8/05 at 12:49pm

Because, I was told plus you can tell, its always the guy who plays Fiyero. I do believe if you watch closely its kinda obvious but I was told before I went.

How is it obvious? It is a mysterious looking figure that you can only see the sillouette of. I mean, it can easily be anyone. But who am I to doubt you...

If you know who's playing Fiyero, it's pretty obvious. It sort of depends on where you sit, I guess, as he hides his face. It's acted by Fiyero, but you hear the Wizard's voice. Obviously, at that point, you don't know it's the Wizard.

niiiiice avatar, act4ever. Is that Stamos?

I always knew it was the Wizard... i guess i just thought it was random chorus boy #2 dancing the role... i never really thought to look for him as Norbert or Joe Mac (the 2 i saw)

and thanks Emcee, yes it is Stamos.

Yea, I sat partial view, so you get a side view - and it's obvious.

Although, I guess JOel Grey and George Hearn of such distinct voices you can tell that it's them singing.

One more reason Sean McCourt is the best Wizard.

I will only say this once and I truly and sincerley mean this:

I HATE GEOGRE HEARN AS THE WIZARD!

there I've said.

[Thenardier]

Posted: 5/8/05 at 1:22pm

As do I.

Posted: 5/8/05 at 1:24pm

Oh Thank God! I love you Thenardier, he was just so different and wrong for this role, I mean Sweeney Todd as the Wizard of Oz, come on thats like just wrong.

[Thenardier]

Posted: 5/8/05 at 1:27pm

For me, it was the dancing - or lack thereof.

Sean McCourt is my favorite -

Posted: 5/8/05 at 1:29pm

I wish Sean would take over for Geogre instead of Ben coming on in.

[Thenardier]

Posted: 5/8/05 at 1:32pm

They'll always pump an ex-Legend(-ish actor) into that role. I think it's great because you get to see actors that were famous back in the day again.

Posted: 5/8/05 at 1:34pm

True, So maybe one day we'll actually see a good Wizard. I mean they had so great talent back in the day! Joel was pretty good, George killed it and Ben, who knows.. maybe he'll be good too.

[Thenardier]

Posted: 5/8/05 at 1:36pm

Joel was good - the one thing about him was his height - so when you first see him, it's funny.

Sean had it all - acting/singing. Plus he looks like the giant mask!

Posted: 5/8/05 at 1:38pm

Lol, the giant mask. Maybe he'll stick around as understudy.
