Ok I searched a swear...so if a similar post is floating around somewhere I'm sorry.
Won the Wicked lotto this afternoon and saw Lisa Bresca and Allie Mauzey as Elphaba and Glinda. I'd seen Lisa as Elphaba the last time I saw Wicked and really liked her. She is excellent. What do people think of Allie? I thought she did a really nice job! I was a little worried toward the beginning because some of the lines that Kendra had made so funny weren't quite as amusing with Allie; however, her version of Popular was hilarious! And from there on out I thought she was on and got more laughs. Her voice is wonderful and acting quite good. She really got emotional at the end when her and Elphaba were singing their last song together (the name of the song is escaping me right now). It was great. Also as a pair, I thought Lisa and Allie were stronger. Their chemistry was AMAZING!!! You could tell they probably rehearsed together more (both being the stand-bys) than when I saw Kendra and Lisa.
Overall I think I might prefer Kendra a little more as Glinda, but Allie did do a wonderful job and I would definitely not be at all disappointed if I were to go again and Allie was on.
Lastly, does anyone know if Julia is on vacation or sick? I know Kendra is on vacation this week, but I was surprised Julia was out again, as I'd just seen her stand-by in for her a few weeks ago too.
