"who CAAAAAAAAARES"

"The cow is gone! Get it back!"


LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If that wasn't perfect, I don't know what is!!!!!
"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive. "Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot." "No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one." Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

wicked4life has knowledge?



actually, kristen chenoweth HAS played dorthy during that scene before. it was the performance where the no talent green woman wasn't paying attention and fell through the trap door, cracked a rib, and all of nutjob fans flipped and had candlelight vigils in her memory like she had died. but it wasn't a bucket of water, it was the control for the trap.

From the original workshops until 9/5/04 on Broadway it was Melissa Fahn. According to Melissa, Dorothy was originally a character in the show, but because of licensing issues with The Wizard of Oz, any mention of Dorothy or Toto by name had to be removed, as well as the exact phrase "Yellow Brick Road," etc. Melissa kept on the part of crying/the sillhouette of Dorothy until she left the show. Jennifer Waldman took over for her doing Dorothy in September and Stacie Morgain Lewis took over Melissa's ensemble part. There is a costume for "Dorothy" but it's not a Susan Hilferty costume, it's just a Halloween costume from a store and it's only for the purposes of a curtain malfunction.

Most of that was from Melissa Fahn's own mouth, so it's the truth. If you want to find out more about Melissa, you can go to my site http://melissa.wicked-popular.com it's the only site about Melissa Fahn and she contributes to it herself and ensures that everything is correct! ^_^ Have a great day.

Honestly? I care because I'm friends with Melissa Fahn. Some people care just because it's fun to know random stuff like that. Some people know because they've been on backstage tours and found out. Some people want to know because it's not listed in the program as being a part. Some people think its animatronic and are curious and excited when they find out its a real person. It doesn't matter why people want to know, what matters is that they have a place to ask and find out and its fun to talk about it without judgmental jerks coming in and saying they're stupid for it. Just let people have their fun and their curiosities, you don't have to be a jerk about it.

theaterguy2 if u have something to say dont say it ok, and why are u a member of a message board if you dont care and why are you replying to threads when you dont care about it. That should make sense to you. And it doesent give wicked fans a bad name, but maybe not everyone who is posting is a wicked fan they maybe some people who are interseted in finding out. So like i said if u dont care so much WHY READ THE BOARD. Hopefully people agree with me. So if u are going to be an a** dont say Sh** thank you .
"what? what is it? do i have something in my teeth? ok lets get this over with : no im not seasick,yes ive always been green, and no i didnt chew grass as a child "

Can you tell me who plays the dragon above the stage?

I think it's Nell Carter, but I'm not sure.

Thanks.
