It's called acting...Glinda? She's got a really amazing belt, and she just makes her voice sound like that. Besides, Fantine has like 1 speaking line anyway.

I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell plus i proudly share the title of the shortest member over the age of 10 with wickedrentq!

I'd kiiiiiill to see those first two do it. KILL, I tell you. Adam almost replaced Michael Cerveris a few years ago.

Zippy - Johnny Depp as the Emcee? That's.... actually kind of interesting.
