Yankeefan is correct. I saw the show on January 9th and Cristy Candler was Nessarose.

Cristy? She was fine...my favorite Nessarose is still Jenna Leigh Green though.

I saw it in July when Jenna Leigh Green was supposed to be there still but I actually saw one of the understudies, Tifanny Haas. She was actually very good and her "Wicked Witch of the East" was very heartfelt. Not that any of this really matters or answers your question, but I felt like saying it...

Cristy Candler replaced Jenna Leigh Green on Broadway. Jenna Leigh Green is reprising the role of Nessa in the new L.A. company, currently in rehearsals.

They are slow updating that website-- though it seems they did update it for Kendra and Julia. Not sure why they haven't removed Jenna yet.

When I saw it on January 6, I was surprised to see that Jenna had left already. I knew she was going to leave but I wasn't sure when. I agree that Cristy was alright, but I like Michelle and Jenna better.

Haven't seen Kendra in the Broadway production, but I saw her while she was in the tour and I thought she was AMAZING! Had great energy from when she first entered through the end! The best part from her though was when she came in after "Dancing Through Life" right before her and Elphaba share secrets. She ran in an began flying all around the beds...CRAZY
