Everyone around me in the stalls was on their feet as she finished that last high note. It was fantastic. I hope she glimpsed a brief look at the standing ovation she got before the lights went out.

It was truly amazing to be in the audience for this show I don't think any Wicked performance I see after this will even be half as good. She'll always be my favourite Elphaba, having seen the show a few times, every scene just seemed more special, and the riffs were insane. If anyone has video of any of the songs that night I would love you forever.

So I know this is over a year later, but I am so overcome with emotion listening to this again after hearing her words in her final speech, in which she says that in this role it is her job to relay to the audience what it feels like to be discriminated against. I am weeping and overcome with emotion listening to her sing this, because every single word, spoken or sung, has so much feeling and meaning behind it. I had the privilege of seeing her at the end of her London run and she was brilliant, and quite pregnant mind you. Thank you, Rachel, for everything you brought to Elphaba, and for touching so many of us.

Rachel is hands down the best Elphaba. Privileged to see her several times and nobody else I’ve seen even comes close. Can we also just take a moment to appreciate Suzie Mathers, who was an exceptional - my personal favourite - Galinda. She doesn’t get anywhere near enough love.

Rachel, whom I was lucky enough to see in New York two years ago in 2015, is AMAZING. I felt very lucky seeing it with her. It was like when I saw it with Idina in 2003, the same kind of feeling. I think Idina, Rachel and Kerry are my top three, because they each brought a unique spin to the character. Not to mention those vocals. I would actually like to see Rachel play Elphaba in the film version. Megan Hilty is my vote for the Glinda.

I have always had a great envy for people living in London or New York.. I come from Sweden and we have musicals yes, we made Chess and had a really great version of Phantom of the Opera with Peter Jöback. However i saw this in London on a fluke with just Rachel Tucker and it is by my standard the only real musical i have ever watched, i had goose bumps throughout the entire performance, Rachel is just pure talent, so silly and expressive and i would give much to go back and see more musicals with that level of production. Amazing, i just want more.
