The Wonderful World of Wicked: Dee Roscioli is Elphabs

The young star, making her Broadway debut in WICKED, shows us life backstage as the green girl.

[@brennens8849]

i love how the typo in the title has never been fixed

[@Broadwaygirl918]

Yeah but we know what they mean

[@Broadwayriah]

@@Broadwaygirl918 ELPHABS

[@Spielingnewfie]

My favorite thing is watching Craig in every Elphie blog XD like hes always there no matter who the actress is or what year it is

[@MarianaGarciaGrijalva]

ikr!!!

[@cc_b6770]

I agree

[@vanessarenee4106]

I love Elphabs

[@BoHista23]

Ah, yes. Elphabs, the wicked, and less renounced, witch of the South-West.

[@kmasucci]

Craig is probably the most beloved makeup artist

[@iAmMadeOfSoup]

Krista Masucci Ikr

[@Elphabantom]

10 years later and Dee is still Elphabs

[@stressmuffin]

That’s sweet that her manager told her that she will play Elphaba someday. And look at her now. What a great manager!

[@melodydyk6170]

Ah, yes. My dream role, Elphabs. I would kill to play Elphabs on Broadway it's just such a cool role I love Elphabs ok bye

[@colorpurplelover8571]

Melody Dyk if you believe it then you will achieve it

[@melodydyk6170]

Color Purple Lover I actually do wanna play Elphaba tho and I feel so inspired rn

[@iAmMadeOfSoup]

Melody Dyk same.

[@olive2815]

not sure who this "Elphabs" is but Elphaba is an amazing character

[@special_effect6123]

It's strange how they didn't title it correctly...

[@elizabethvaldivia66]

Lol yes. They put elphabs

[@Nutcrackar]

I just saw her in Hawaii. Her singing was BEYOND PHENOMENAL, especially in defying gravity. That high note brought me to tears, it was so beautiful. This woman has an amazing voice. Bravo!

[@gabstarohthree]

Jenna Marbles! That's who she reminds me of! It took me forever to figure that out!

[@hunter8749]

Omg! Craig looks so nerdy in this video compared to the episodes of "Fly Girl!"

[@leahwhereuat8156]

I thought that! He looks so much different!

[@ellewalker7735]

It’s 2020 and Dee is still Elphabs

[@alizah3029]

OMG Craig looks so different from when Lindsay has him

[@nadine2910]

When he came in I was like 'omg Craig?!?!'

[@minyoongi878]

Nadinexxx IKR!!

[@helloitstrav]

Dee was my first Elphaba! She forever has been my fav since I've seen the show.

[@IUsedToBeAnAdventurerLikeYou]

She seems so sweet.

[@ronniemcleod2880]

Faveont song neves on the stage thank you so so much eveything show show best

[@GirlOnFire1990]

Dee was my Elphaba when I saw Wicked in November 2009! She was phenomenal! A great show to see as my first NYC broadway show!

[@Kayshmo]

She was the first Elphaba I saw!! (In Chicago)

[@ellewalker7735]

Just here to say that, 14 years later, in 2023, as Wicked readies to celebrate its 20th anniversary… Dee is still Elphabs.

[@stressmuffin]

I envy all of the singer actresses, who get to play my dream Broadway character, Elphaba. The green make-up & that heavy Act 2 gown is worth it to portray this character in professional productions of Wicked. Dee is right when she finds a green patch on her body, or green acne, that’s a badge of theatre honor that’s worn with pride.

[@fanofpets]

I love how when everytime she leaves she leaves her green hand print just as a memory for the company to know that she is always around and being in other company's:)

[@susansings7173]

Dee, u and Erin were AMAZING when I came to see the tour show in Chicago 2008! Much love,Ur #1 fan:)

[@ZippyLove09]

I'd give just about anything to meet Dee. Saw her in 2011 at the Kennedy Center, these videos just make her seem so down to earth a and fun!

[@FireMarioDX]

I saw the show and it was awesome. Great soundtrack, great actors, great props. Wicked is my favorite play of all time.

[@crzd311rocker]

I just saw Wicked tonight ... LOOOOVED IT! Dee Roscioli and Patti Murin were amazing!

[@sillygoose6455]

Holy..Craig is Breedlove! I only know of him from being in Lady Gaga's crew all the time. I had no idea he did makeup for Broadway. So cool

[@meaganramos25]

She was amazing!!! I saw her on Friday. I loved it!!!

[@sydneyscott2186]

OH MY GOSH! CRAIG!

[@headachesandhairdye]

I want Dee to be Elphaba if/when they make a Wicked movie. She's just so cool and adorable and lovely and talented.

[@ReginaScholey]

just saw her tonight in Costa Mesa. Speechless.

[@cooperfitch4256]

Still Elphabs after 12 years

[@808ainosked]

I'm so glad I got to see her perform in Wicked a couple days ago in Hawaii! She was amazing.

[@stormwolf123]

I saw her on Sunday. It was awesome

[@jasonaw2]

Saw her perform on Saturday such an amazing Elphaba. I even got to meet her.

[@blubabluba123]

"this is a technique dee has brought" "hahahaha"

[@artie450]

I love Dee, im glad I got to see her. She is an amazing actress. She is very funny.

[@InfinitePlaylist909]

saw her on tour! YEEE

[@waffleslikebutter533]

I saw her and Jenn last night they were awesome

[@sierraphan8850]

Shes amazing!

[@crazyguy98456978]

Dee was my Elphaba when I saw the show on Broadway, my first show, and it was a no-fly show... #SoDissapointing, but she was amazing!

[@kevinworrall5851]

What do you mean by a no-fly show?

[@Mrnickstr89]

Kevin Worrall A no fly show is when whoever plays Elphaba doesn’t get to rise into the air at the climax of defying gravity because there’s a problem with the flying apparatus.

[@iAmMadeOfSoup]

I love her merch. She's the biggest Wicked fan lol. She makes a beautiful Elphaba

[@Hasigirl87]

Oh my... she's so nice :)

[@lalalynnsey]

Margaret Hamilton graduated from the school I attended. Makes me feel really special knowing that someone that talented walked the same halls of the school I did. ♥ Whenever I see videos of Wicked on KZbin I keep thinking of that :)

[@RollerCoasterManiac]

It was like March/April (I went during a high school choir competition) so I had Dee :) I was wondering for the longest time!

[@Scandisk10]

It depends on when you saw the show. If you saw it between January- Early June, you saw her, or if you saw it from September-Closing Night, you saw Dee. Lisa Brescia took over briefly from June- August. :)

[@webbcummings8064]

Dee Roscioli is one of my favorite Elphabss

[@CallMeJaii]

dude breedlove is doing her makeup! THIS IS SO AWESOME

[@melodyflame9928]

I need Stella!!!

[@saranotsarah]

7 years later... still Elphabs

[@mauia88]

How interesting! I saw her very recently for Wicked though my favorite Elphie is SJB from her rendition of Defying Gravity. ^^

[@meganmacewan5302]

i love dee shes hilarious

[@whowhatwhenwhere97]

she is a splediferously wonderful person with a extravagant sense of humour.

[@HazelOct]

Awww she's fun :)

[@shannonclarkey]

Elphabs? wow.

[@TheEvilsquiril]

no other elphaba would go off into detail over their boyfriends son and photos and names :D ahh dear, gotta love Dee

[@siewbergeron8014]

She is showing all her Elepba collection

[@fanofpets]

Craig with Dee Roscioli:) Craig now does Lindsay:)

[@broadwaymike92]

They gotta have the other Elphaba's in the past come back to put their green hand prints as well on the door. I'm talking Idina, Shoshana, Eden, Ana, Julia, Stephanie, and Kerry.

[@tylergunnufson312]

We love elphabas 💚

[@emilygill730]

I SAW THE SHOW AMAZING

[@BreonCanady]

Throat coat is a God send :) I'm an MT major and we live off it :) My high school voice teacher has that same mug :D

[@chatterbox4131]

omg i love throat coat too :D

[@bethblalock1644]

My favorite song is For good

[@blubabluba123]

we did it too, so fun:D

[@RachelZeglerLovesHugs]

love her she reminds me of jenna marbles :/

[@ooyoobbangjib]

Go Elphie GO!

[@151Doggies]

omg Craig's hair was so short!!

[@elizabethvaldivia66]

Yes the last time I saw him he was in the video is Lindsay Mendez and his hair was super long!!

[@cooliocool64]

OH STELLA!!

[@orizongaming6551]

Yeah I really do love elphabs 😂😂😂

[@fanofpets]

Dee is longest running Elphaba:) Lindsay is also amazing:)

[@soapie1285]

It’s 2am I’m watching old broadway.com videos and at the end she kicks them out and then it sings no one mourns the wicked. My brain went to the conclusion that they got mad and Dorothy didn’t kill Elphaba it was broadway.com

[@ThespianIntheTARDIS]

Really? When did they become available? I checked before I wrote that comment, and as far as I could tell, weren't. Who are they available through? (MTI, Theatrical Rights Worldwide, etc.)

[@McGrawProductions]

Me too man

[@tylirb]

How are the rights out if its currently on broadway?

[@susansings7173]

I loved Dee as elphaba when I came to see the show with my High school choir in Chicago in 2008. It was my first time seeing a broadway show, and I fell in love, so technically, Dee, u were my inspiration to take up musical theater. Thank u!!!!! :>

[@madelinewright5218]

craig is so young in this video compared to the other videos ive seen with him as the makeup person

[@RoslynLloyd]

Glad we're not the only ones, always nice to know you're not off your head lol XD

[@obessedbookwormA2Z]

hahahaa she's so cute :)

[@LaurenLaass]

I saw her and Jenn Gambatese in Wicked.

[@Applebutter799]

You... are so lucky *_*

[@whitney8656]

Elphabs is best character

[@jasonerictesta]

9:23 Yes, yes is it.

[@fanofpets]

She is in the same dressing room Lindsay was in.

[@christohermihaljevich7681]

She was before Lindsay

[@fanofpets]

Oh yeah way before .

[@jboao]

She’s in the same room as Idinas... the OG

[@tillyboos]

Dee reminds me of a young Ricki Lake -- idk why, but she does.....

[@samborthwick]

She was the first elphaba I saw!

[@sophieiplaysims191]

I first saw Idina Menzel as Elfie :3

[@mezza001]

Sophieiplaysims lucky you!

[@madelynjowens]

The title is spelled wrong. It's Elphaba

[@bethblalock1644]

My favorite song is defeating Gravity

[@katieshajwani6277]

no glinda. no.

[@fearlesswanderer225]

7:31 omg elphie laugh

[@RollerCoasterManiac]

I think I had Dee as Elphaba. I saw it in Chicago in 2008. (Can someone confirm or correct me?)

[@22jeyq]

I have a teacher with the same initials as Katie Rose Clarke.

[@siewbergeron8014]

Dee

[@siewbergeron8014]

Roscioli is Elphaba

[@ThespianIntheTARDIS]

Just so you know (although I'm sure you're done with your show, at this point), I wouldn't go around announcing that you played Elphaba, since the license isn't available. You could get into a lot of trouble for doing the show. Hope it went well, though:)

[@TheLesMiserablesCats24601]

Craig looks like a farmer.

[@iisazel]

OMO! She is like a more appropriate Jenna Marbles

[@MonsterVisions]

Isn't Craig "Breedlove"? As in Gaga's performance artist/musician friend?

[@charlottegachalove2642]

I saw. U at a show it was totally WICKED
