So she is in this trailer....is this the same trailer they always use, or does this mean that she is going to be in the Melbourne Wicked??

No, they just always use that footage with the original tour cast.

They'll probably use it for the German, French, Italian, Swedish, Russian and Chinese versions as well! And I have a feeling Stephanie doesn't speak any of those languages to perfection

Tamsin Carroll has been cast as Elphaba and Rachel Beck as Glinda. David Campbell as Fiyero and Bert Newton as the wizard. I wanted to see it, but if Bert's in it might give it a miss. He's in too much!!
I wish Steph J Block was in it. Saw her in Boy From Oz and she was awesome.

Sarah,

"Theatre talk is where the story came from :

Grapevine Australia – 17th July 2007

by Aaron Ware

AAANNNDDD Tamsin Carroll and Rachel Beck have been cast as Elphaba and Galinda in Wicked. David Campbell will be playing Fiyero and Bert Newton will appear as the Wizard! Again!"
None of that is true.

Casting has yet to begin, The Gordon/Frost Org is busy getting Spamalot ready and casting for Wicked is not due to happen to early next year.

What happened to Dallimore? Or was it a rumour?

Oh god I hope it was....Helen Dallimore is the most annoying person to ever play Glinda
