unfortunately i was not able to see Kristin in this role although she is incredible on the soundtrack. out of the two i have seen, JLT and Megan, Megan is my favorite. she was incredible and stole the show when i last saw it.

Kristin will never be beaten, she owns that role. Her voice, her comedic timing, her looks, she is just amazing.

I liked Sara Jane Everman at The Oriental but Kristin will always be the best.

Kristin is THE Glinda, but Megan definitely is close behind for me. Her "Popular" almost had me in tears. I enjoyed every moment she was on stage!

Sara Jane Everman takes the cake for me.

She was fresh in the role--she had me laughing at a show that has been dry to me for a year now.

Her voice is great too--she's plays the opening Glinda (the one who we know from The Wizard of Oz) like she should be played. The way Kristin played it as well.

Kristin. Why? Because she's the best.

Cheno defined the role...and made it a tough act to follow.

Sorry, I'm not a big WICKED fan but a friend of mine had a free ticket so I went back and saw it with Megan Hilty and I thought she was terrifc. Much more real and appealing to me than Ms. Chenoweth.

Kristin. She's brilliant.

I love Megan Hilty..she has really grown into that role so well. She has perfect comedic timing for the lines and she does so many "little" movements that really make up the character. She has an amazing voice as well, but IMO there are not any Glindas so far with a weak voice.

I love Kendra and Megan equally.

Megan vocals were spectacular.

Kendra was just insanely funny. Her popular is my favorite.

Mine is Kristin

Jennifer Laura Thomspon. Because she WASN'T just winking atthe audience and being cute...

You know, I would have to say it's a tie between Jen and Kristin. Kristin was automatically the best to me, but seeing Jen, especially on Idina's last show when she really went wild and did an incredible job, I would say I like them almost equally. I haven't seen Megan yet, which might change my mind, based on your opinions :)

Jennifer Laura Thompson without a doubt. She has a gorgeous voice and her comedic style is hysterical and so unique.

For me they made the show interesting

My favorite without a doubt is:

Search Itsbeendonealot.

She was phenominal.

Katie Adams was good too.
