Putting that aside for now, a new video has been released about Paul Tazewell and his ideas for the costumes of the movie. It's ironic that he would work on Wicked when he also did the costumes for The Wiz Live.

I read that Erivo was essentially blacklisted from the Broadway stage due to her behavior during The Color Purple. Does anyone know if that's true?

I don’t think it was color purple. It was more what she was saying during great comet

Yeah, her outrage pretty much lead to the near immediate closure of the show. She lost the respect and support of many in the community over her response. It seems it is one knee jerk reaction after another with her. She is wonderfully talented, but fantastically insufferable.

Can’t imagine Marc Platt is exactly cheering her on from the sidelines over this poster thing. They all probably wish she’d just “chill” as Chris Petersen put it.
