I know there is a Wicked SECRETS posting or seven around but i dont have the time to search through old postings.
Does anyone know who plays the shadow of Dorothy behind the curtain when she throws the water onto the witch?
Saw it three times and was wondering
Thanks!

Posted: 1/21/05 at 3:10pmI really have no idea about technical stuff, but I always assumed it was just some kind of light projection of her outline, not a real person.

Posted: 1/21/05 at 4:40pmIt would be ridiculous to have a different girl each night.

It's Kristin Chenoweth.

I care....and if you don't, why waste your time posting on this thread? Let it fall down to the bottom like all the others do, all you are doing by saying who cares is putting it back on the top.
I've wondered that more than once. And it doesn't really suprise me that she wears the costume, if something were to go wrong and you saw her it would provide the real effect..I think that's awesome.

Posted: 1/21/05 at 6:32pmI think it's the "spirit" of Judy Garland.

Posted: 1/21/05 at 6:42pmoOOOoOoOOOO... but would Judy really even involve herself with this crap?

Crap?
I thought Wicked was immortal genius.

Posted: 1/21/05 at 10:31pmha, it is. I always though dorothy was a light projection because she or it was pretty tall and didn't really look lifelike the way it moved.

Posted: 1/21/05 at 10:33pmI've always wanted to know who or how they did that...ever since I saw it in early jan. (before Idina got hurt). I was always to scared to ask and I still want to know.
