Show People With Paul Wontorek Full Interview: Rachel Tucker of WICKED and More

[@baileybieganek2446]

I feel so lucky now. I saw Rachel in London. She was my first Elphaba, and that was when I realized that theatre was my passion!

[@chrisroderosvlogsroderos267]

I'm so happy your going to get to see her again in the west end 😄

[@baileybieganek2446]

+ChirsRoderosVlogs well i saw her. Don't know if I'll ever see her again but it was amazing!

[@MaiaMatiIda]

my favorite lady! loved her in London and she's even better now. by far the best voice

[@ca112]

I've been lucky enough to see Rachel a couple of times in London and also recently on Broadway - she's right, she's somehow taken Elphaba to another level, which i didn't think was possible. I was nervous about the American accent but it is flawless (and makes her voice deeper somehow - pretty incredible). I'm SO pleased she's had the chance to shine on Broadway because she truly deserves it. Here's hoping this Wicked contract isn't the last and we get to see her painted green for years to come!

[@rosepratiwi6532]

How lucky you are, really

[@stargleekwhofighter]

I saw Rachel last month and was blown away by how incredible she it. It was my third time seeing the show and I was in awe. she's fantastic!!

[@laurenconrad1799]

I love how she and Samantha Barks got their start at the exact same place. They were neck and neck in the competition.

[@baileybieganek2446]

The only one I thought could have possibly beat her: sam barks!

[@pingskiie]

I'm so incredibly happy that she's doing all these amazig things now. I saw her as Meat in 2009 and have loved her ever since. She's beyond talented and she seems such a nice person.

[@JamboLinnman]

I saw Rachel play opposite Louise Dearman 7 times in London. What a phenomenal pair. Met them both at the stage door and had photos with them… they were both very pleasant.

[@OMGitsHolly13]

she's just phenomenal

[@Athespian128]

My QUEEN. Seeing her a week from today

[@Athespian128]

+Ch(ris)icago she was MORE than amazing. More than perfect. She IS Elphaba. Her voice will fill the Gershwin's from top to bottom and leave you with chills down your spine. She's insane. INSANE. GO SEE HER. ALSO CARRIE ST LOUIS WHO PLAYS GLINDA IS THE MOST PERFECT GLINDA I COULD EVER IMAGINE. HER VOICE WILL ALSO GIVE YOU CHILLS. Both of them growl during parts of the show (more notably Rachel) and every time I jumped in my seat. Carrie St. Louis is one of the funniest people in the world. Her "disrepectation" and "dodo" lines are PURE PERFECT. PERFECTION I TELL YOU. And she sings with her chest as opposed to the more customary way of head voice that Glinda's use and IT SOUNDS SO GOOD. RUSH TO THE GERSHWIN RIGHT NOW

[@Athespian128]

+Ch(ris)icago They both SLAYED and riffed a lot. Even Carrie riffed during NOMTW. Rachel did the "feeling things Ive never felt riff" and I promise you hearing that live in person took my soul away. You just have to go see it live its so amazing

[@jonsmith3030]

You sound like me Tyler haha I've been obsessed with her for years and I saw her live tonight, hearing her live was amazing.

[@jonsmith3030]

When she did they Fiyero note in no good deed, I was so done oh gosh. She nailed it.

[@rachaelkemp9488]

getting to see rachel in may in Belfast where she's from and I'm proud to call it my home as well

[@jonsmith3030]

Saw her today. Messaging you all from beyond the grave, cause I died.

[@hawa4556]

Rachel Tucker's my favourite elphaba!! I saw her like 5 times in London ahaahh #obsessed

[@tillyboos]

She brought Elphaba into a new light, because she is COMPLETELY talented, and she is the most original portrayer of the role since Idina. With I think an even better voice. She has that special something that makes any role she touches seem like she created it herself from the ground up. She and Idina are the two that bring that to Elphaba. Would love to see them do something together someday, that would be EPIC! Wow, talk about her being miscast in Grease: understudy to Frenchie, REALLY? She's CLEARLY a Rizzo! Casting Directors can be SO stupid! Ugh! 😜

[@Jack-gi9nc]

I'VE BEEN LOWKEY WANTING FOR THIS SINCE SHE WENT TO BROADWAY OMGGGG

[@katielawrence5420]

I love Rachel Tucker.

[@samsmoyer8704]

There is a reason this video has no dislikes

[@Gleek1196]

Omg I can't believe she was on the show "I'd Do Anything"! I remember seeing Samantha Barks on that show!

[@EoghanAmI]

That's my sister's birthday as well! So weird that they mentioned it. But also we're from Belfast, so we've got that on you Paul Wontorek!

[@sillylissy]

my dad's too! i don't know why i'm excited haha

[@SlowxParentsCrossing]

Rachel is magical 😍😍😍

[@broadwaymike92]

Love how Rachel mentions Sam Barks.

[@IBeDinosaurus]

I wish I had seen her on Broadway... kills me that she's done performing in Wicked. :(

[@benschaeffer8102]

She was PHENOMENAL as Elphaba on Broadway. PHENOMENAL. Best Broadway Elphaba since Idina for me. I saw her back in November of 2015. 💚🖤

[@laurenhyde2912]

My QUEEN

[@000euMJ]

I can't believe I'll miss her! I'm going to NYC in august and she's leaving in july. :'(

[@abstru214]

she's so cute aw

[@dbuckleytv]

I had the wonderful honor of seeing her last Summer with Jonah Platt and Carrie St. Louis! 😄

[@thebarksy1960]

Rachel is great :) you should interview Samantha Barks as well, that'd be amazing!!

[@Lishkafe]

Just heard she won't be showing as Elphaba anymore. Now they won't know what I've experienced :(

[@olakorzec9872]

hey. can somebody tell me if Rachel is performing on 18 January? In London

[@Be8k3]

I think it depends if she's well that night all I know is that she leaves the role on the 28th January

[@olakorzec9872]

Thank you!

[@markiecobley714]

Ola Korzec Yeah, she's thankfully on that night! Unless she's ill, then yeah, she will be on that night

[@benperry4336]
