#1Nicole's Replacement/NYC trip
Posted: 6/17/09 at 1:07amSo far the best and probably most expected candidate is Dee Roscioli. Jennifer DiNoi is also in talks, so is some Alyssa Fox chick. Julia Murney has been brought up too somewhere on youtube. So who is replacing? I'm flying up to NYC from New Orleans sometimes this july and I would really love to see Nicole, but if Dee or Julia is replacing I think I just may wait. I am also seeing 9 to 5. Yay! So what is the deal. And why is wicked taking so long to reveal the new Elphie?
Shows:
Wicked 9.20.08; Wicked 3.14.09; Wicked 4.11.09; Cats 10.27.09; Legally Blonde 11.25.09; Chicago 11.27.09; Wicked 11.27.09; The Color Purple 12.1.09; Wicked 3.25.10; Wicked 3.26.10; Wicked 3.27.10; Wicked 3.28.10; Wicked 4.2.10; Wicked 4.3.10 (Evening and Matinee); Wicked 4.9.10; Wicked 4.10.10; Wicked 4.11.10; The Color Purple 4.24.10;

i am sure if will not be julia because she is in california from july 9 - august 2 doing 'the best is yet to come. the music of cy coleman.' and i don't think she would do wicked again.
we will find out soon hopefully. until then we just have to be patient and wait until it is announced or information leaks through somewhere.

I am a fan of wicked, seen it 5 times, but I think it is somewhat stupid to keep recycling women to play the part. I mean, once you play a witch, you can move on to do other things. I feel sorry for the Kendra Kassabaums and Dee Roscioli's out there. Let someone else have a go at the show, it's not like it won't sale.

Posted: 6/17/09 at 3:02pmI agree with you bwayboundjoe however...Saycon Sengbloh derserved her chance as full time Elphaba

She did, but she wasn't recycled. She stayed standby for many years. I think that the reusing of say, Eden Espinosa, one elphaba many people find amazing, I find...boring. She's been in 3 diffrent wicked stints. Kendra however has done Tour, Nyc, took a break, back to Nyc, and now in San Fran. She's been Glinda for almost 5 years now...
I just want some new talent. I personally love Nicole Parker's take on the role because it's Fresh.

"I pity the people who pay good money to see Dee Ravioli."
Not very funny and why would you pity people seeing one of the best people to play Elphaba?
Don't believe everything that you hear! Only the peeps involved know the truth!

Posted: 6/17/09 at 4:20pmI saw Dee in '07 in Chicago and she wasn't very good in my opinion. She played everything extremely safe to the point of being boring. Victoria Matlock, who I saw a week later on tour, impressed me far more than Dee.

It's like those old commercials they used to show on TV in the 90s...
I can just picture a noodle Elphie flying above Oz pushing the latest brand of Mac 'n Cheese.

Posted: 6/17/09 at 4:48pmWhat a bore. It was refreshing when they cast Nicole Parker, instead of recycling. It's not like they need to save up money like YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN had to, why can't they bring in new actresses to play the part instead of the endless recycling that has become way too tiresome?

Posted: 6/17/09 at 5:04pmI second Saycon to return. Her voice was thrilling, definitely one of if not the best singer to have played the role. Much better than the overrated standbys you get nowadays.

Hahaha, defyingravity07. You made my sides hurt from laughing! That picture is so disturbing, I love it.
"Julie Reiber is the best elphaba ever and were one of the people claiming she'd been 'slapped in the face' "
I'm pretty sure people used the term "kicked in the vagina." lol.
