Glinda: Gasp! I get a moment to defy gravity! 'No wizard that there is or was, Is ever gonna bring me down!!!!' ...No, but, really, guys. Let me down. Halp. 😂🤣

They were all so professional. I bet many in the audience didn't even know about the faux pas by the way they handled the situation. At the same time they whole cast seemed to be loving it. The stage hand was so good at making sure she was okay. It must be great to have such a dedicated team behind you in these circumstances.

And THAT is live theatre and why you don't go on "auto pilot" for as sure as you do, something like this happens and yanks you out of it. Bravo to all of them that took it in stride and adjusted on the spot to what was happening! The SM should have lowered the scrim first before going out onto the stage. I bet this became the company joke for months afterwards!

@dukeofrodtown17052 күн бұрын
Jennafer Newberry got stuck in the bubble moments after the finale because of a technical error. This meant she could not rush all the way to the upstage center clock door that splits open (and when this occurs at the 1:00 mark, Elphaba and Glinda USUALLY rush out to bow together). Due to this glitch, deGuzman and Newberry couldn't hug as is always done by Elphaba and Glinda at curtain call, so the latter took her bow from the bubble. It took until seconds before the orchestra finished the bow music for to crew to start to get Glinda unstuck

What exactly is the purpose of people “wooing”? Is it to let the talent know you’re there or do you think they’re going to acknowledge you? Because quite honestly it’s annoying as hell. Just applaud, it’s not about you…

I saw Wicked in 2005 in St Louis. Glinda was Kendra Kassebaum. The bubble broke during No One Mourns the Wicked. They stopped the show and then 30 min later they restarted. When they yelled Look it’s Glinda. Kendra walked on stage. No bubble the rest of the night. During the finale when Glinda does her speech. She just stood on stage same spot just a few feet away from Stephanie. Memorable show for sure.

Also, I want to take a moment to shoutout Lissa deGuzman as Elphaba and Jennafer Newberry as Glinda. I saw them both as leads on tour, and it was great to see them reunited on Broadway. Being a standby is a very hard job, and both of these actors are top notch and gave killer performances. Everyone please send them love!!! Wicked is in amazing hands with them! 💜

This is how it should be. Glinda's perfection separated her from others to the point of becoming a messianic figure. The show is about Elphaba's courage to find herself. The relationship between the two witches was platonic, so pure, so crystalline. Like a "ship blown from its mooring, by a wind off the sea; A seed dropped by a sky bird in a distant wood". I mean, by simple chance.
