First, yes this is a Wicked post, and I am proud of it. Second...eagarly awaiting the Wicked tour in Chicago. (Got my tickets for mother's day, the same day as my show at school), but I digress.
So what's with the Wicked sit-down in Chicago? Is it for real? If it is...and with all parties saying Ana Gastyer (sorry) leading, I would be thrilled!!! Anyone who knows anything, please help!!! Thanks!

I walked by the theater in Chicago where Wicked will be when I went to Les Miz this weekend, it was very exciting!!!

I'm confused... who will be the Chicago Elphaba for the tour? (In April-May-June, the originally scheduled tour time?)

'cause I have tickets, and I was kinda looking forward to seeing Stephanie J. Block...

Elphaba for the tour (April-June) : Stephanie j. block

Elphaba for sit-down (open-ended) production in Chicago that will take place after the tour leaves: Ana Gasteyer

Hope this clears it up.

tickets haven't gone on sale yet for the sit down...so if you have tickets you're seeing Steph

YAY!
I'm not usually like this, btw. I'm fairly sane... and yes, I know how to spell Idina Menzel's name, thank you.

I've never heard her sing. Does anyone have anything?

Yeah, she never seemed like much of a singer to me.

The only thing I've heard her sing in was "Gemini's Twin". I was SO impressed.

She was in some form of a Funny Girl revival...somewhere, and evidently got great reviews!
