Wicked in May?

Hi everyone,

I've been lurking around reading posts for a month or so, but just joined today.

Someone mentioned that Kristin will be away from WICKED in May ... does anyone know of those exact dates? Also, does Idina have any scheduled days off? (i'm a much bigger fan of Idina, but of course would like both of them to be there).

I was lucky enough to win front row seats in the rush lottery to WICKED about 3 weeks ago. It was a Sat. matinee and both 'stars' were there - no understudies at all. It was an amazing show, in so many ways. I absolutely love it. I know there are critics of it on the boards, but to each their own, right? :)

Anyhow, I'm going back up to NYC (from NC) in May - and have purchased a ticket to the show already. I'll be terribly disappointed if Kristin and/or Idina aren't in the show that night. It's a Saturday night, so perhaps there is a better chance that they will both be there? (or is that just my naivety? ha,ha). Well, here's hoping.

Thanks for any help,
Angie

May 3-9. I'm seeing it on the 12th, and they are both scheduled to play.

Actually, I couldn't agree with you ... LESS. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure Eden Espinosa is just fine in the role; however ... Idina Menzel is amazing - her voice alone gives me chills. I'll be one very lucky patron to see Idina perform again --> here's hoping. :)

Thanks to those of you that responded to my original question. I'm going on May 21st, so I'll be safe from Kristin's Candide absence.

I have Wicked tickets for May 8, and apparently KC will be out.

Can I get a refund? I've really lost interest in the show and this would be a good excuse to cash the tickets in.

Thanks.

What neck injury?

Personally I would love to see Kristin get slapped really hard with her neck brace on....I was so upset when I heard about it the first time, I wished I was one of the lucky people to have that oppurtunity....

---

Maybe its because I'm horribly bitter that she gets more publicity than Idina, whom I think is more talented. Just my opinion though.

To reiterate Joshua Eads question, how are the partial viewing seats? I've already purchased mine but I heard they're horrendous compared to the rush tickets.

ok, I know this thread's been up for a while, but I'm just seeing it now, as I was away for a few days... and I know that this doesn't have much to do with the actual thread, but:

"Indina Menzel"

I keep seeing this, and it drives me CRAZY!

No offense, but come on people, it's IDINA.

---

yes, that too. But it's not nearly as bad.

I could care less about things that are obviously typos. But speak for yourself. There are people who *consistently* spell names wrong. That's not a typing mistake, it's blatantly wrong. So what? It bothers me and it doesn't bother you. I don't care.

Thank you, dear!

Kristin got better reviews b/c she doesn't scream!
