She does.
There was a rumor a while back that they were bringing her over here to play Elphaba. I wish it had panned out. Her voice is outstanding.

She's Dutch!
She's gonna play Elphaba in the Dutch version of Wicked! It starts somewhere around fall 2011!
So maybe after that she goes to broadway?

^That describes about 90% of the women who've played Elphaba. Most of them have huge voices, but not much else.
Which is fine. Let's be honest, it's not Lady Macbeth. If an actress can knock the "big three" out of the park, that's really all that matters.

Well, I think it has to be a good mixture! If the singing just blows you away, the acting doesn´t have to be perfect!
