Think Pink: Backstage at "Wicked" with Kara Lindsay, Episode 4: Oops!

[@JessMedley]

Kara Lindsay is seriously the cutest thing ever!!!

[@oliviadavis5030]

I watch you!!!

[@verityjude2269]

Jess Medley oh hi jess

[@KalesKorner]

Those stories were brilliant, just a reminder about how wonderful live theatre, even Broadway, is!

[@DeniseRose652]

Yay! The bubble ride! Thank you Miss Lindsay!

[@ruby7226]

11:32 “he’s wonderful” she didn’t even notice😂

[@mchammar416]

I still haven't heard a story that made me laugh as much as Kara talking about in Newsies when she whacked the broom in King of New York and it hit their conductor in the head!! XD

[@lexmiester07]

Is there a video of her telling this story?

[@mchammar416]

yeah! just search on KZbin "Kara answers QOD number 3" and it should come up :)

[@mchammar416]

a cast member of Newsies was going around and asking everyone what their most embarrassing onstage moment was. if you search "Kara answers QOD number 3" it should come up

[@Averia89]

I love Kara, she radiates genuine positivity!!! And, yes, I bet any G(a)linda would be happy to sing "NOMTW" down the octave!!!

[@sofithropp9803]

These videos make me insanely happy! Thanks Kara for filming them! Also really funny stories from all the girls :) Just lovely! The bubble ride remind me of Lindsay Mendez's Fly girl where she took us in the Defying gravity ride. But the bubble is way higher

[@yoyoeldas]

Well, everyone deserves a chance to fly lol (Fiyero has his swing)

[@annekavandervelde8198]

3:26 can you imagine someone yelling it’s Glinda in the most unenthusiastic voice ever during the show I died laughing

[@verityjude2269]

Anneka Vander Velde same 😂

[@Niqhtmusic]

*“Look. It’s Glinda.”*

[@iAmMadeOfSoup]

I love hearing mishap stories

[@eggmcmuffin8161]

"Stop filming your but ya creeper" 😂😂 Bahahahaha I love these two

[@luciechristian3095]

When I saw wicked (June 2013), it was one of Lindsay Mendez's first performances, and she didn't fly in defying gravity!! I didn't know she was even supposed to until about 6 months later when I saw a clip on KZbin and I was like "wait, she FLIES IN DEFYING GRAVITY???"

[@blankeyed67]

+Lucie Christian Lol she mentioned that in Fly Girl

[@luciechristian3095]

+Yato Gami hahah really?? I've watched fly girl probably 200 times and never heard her mention it!! I feel special now lol

[@musicalpugs2974]

Whenever I see kara I always seem to see a perfect little glinda perfect as perfect could be, my little heart tends to start to grin.... She isssss popular she's so popular

[@RizwanJaganiViolist]

Your tender heart tends to start to grin? Hehe

[@zoe_3104]

Why is it that just about every time I see granny she has some sort of food or drink in her hand 😂😂😂😂💞💞💞I love you guys and they need to start to remake these!!!

[@heidiedana]

I'm in 💚 with this series xxxx

[@mommak10]

OMG I love Kara so much! She's super adorable! LOL My dream is to be on Broadway and play Glinda. :) Is it possible to be the first African-American Glinda on WIcked?

[@Roo0xanne]

I can't see why it would be impossible tbh! There has been many coloured people in this production who have had several leading role's.

[@musicalpugs2974]

Of course there has been an African american phantom anything is possible

[@sydneywright104]

I think it would be great to see an African American Glinda I want to be the first african American Christine daae

[@mommak10]

go for it girl! :) And thank all of you guys for the encouraging comments!

[@panicatthegrocerystore5478]

you can do anything you want! You are strong and powerful. I believe in you!

[@IBeliebSomeday]

I was so happy to see her and Caroline in this production back in January. After watching all these videos I feel in love with the cast all over again

[@Isaac-3]

I literally screamed for a solid minute when Tom came on because I saw both him and Granny do Wicked three-and-a-half years ago.

[@annaelizabeth5536]

I miss these so much!!!

[@rickym242]

I saw Desi Oakley in Waitress!! So cool to see that she was in Wicked

[@abialston8476]

Kara is the cutest

[@judibatchelder5837]

Kara is my idol newsies and wicked 🎥

[@brookedowd7747]

I live the stories they are hilarious!!!

[@neauxel]

The bubble ride is sooo high up oh gosh

[@steflwin6290]

Woooah I have just been watching the vlogs for the waitress tour with desi Oakley; didn’t know she was in this!?

[@Athespian128]

Kara loves hats

[@musicatheatrefan]

Oh my Oz, those stories were hilarious. I also noticed that when Lindsay Northern was talking about her onstage mishap, Carla could be seen in the mirror as if she was looking for something, like "Did I leave it over here? No, I didn't. Back the way I came." And then she all but runs back the way she came. I don't think Carla even realised that got caught on camera.

[@MsLunaLynn]

Mishaps are the best!

[@taylorharmon6640]

AHHH I KNOW LINDSAY NORTHEN!! :)

[@samuelking9343]

8:29 Did they mess up after Fiyero and Elphaba's individual solos? And any one been to that performance? If so, then reply back describing what was it that happened. Please! Did they get prompted by the Stage Manager or Music Director? And who helped them get back on track? The Stage Manager or the Music Director?

[@ethanrich3285]

My Favourite Moments in This Vlog is when Kara Showed us what was it like tonRide in the Bubble and when She Talked to the ensemble women about their Blooper Stories my Favourite Blooper Story was when Desi talked about how her Netted Skirt got caught and it unraveled across the Stage and she had to pull all of the unraveled threads of the skirt. Funny story

[@lilims123]

2 Evitas in Wicked lol

[@SuperJNG18]

Watching this, I think, "Man, Kara seems to be a super-talented Glinda. Wish I could've seen her do it before she left... ...OH WAIT.

[@jackryanpetee5918]

I like these a lot more than Fly Girl with Lindsay Mendez

[@theatrelover2]

"Rob is great!" Me: you sure about that lol

[@disneydanny2]

wow Rob wears 2 hats (Makeup (sub) & Hair) never knew that

[@JoelARTPOP88]

I realized the only one missing from tour is Laurel Harris. im kind of sad she didnt go to broadway. Kara, kathy, matt were on tour. i think

[@matildajones9274]

When I watched the show someone trousers broke and nearly fell ( one of the dancing eggs??) they look like that anyway😂 and a backstage member had to come on and hold them up x

[@descalante64]

I think by the ''dancing eggs'' they are actually called Hammer Heads or Flatheads.

[@Roo0xanne]

I've heard that you can't be taller than 1.75 meter to be able to fit in the bubble. Is that true?

[@CountryCowboy008]

O my gosh I just realized Desi was here!!!!!! Desi as in one of the best Jenna of Waitress!!!! Wow!!!

[@isabelladippel9649]

Desi!!!

[@sarahmcgowan6152]

Lol I'm related to Tom.....

[@doerayme28]

Watch fly girl Lindsay Mendez shows u the view

[@dylbange353]

Ok so my dream is to be Glinda on Broadway but I'm really tall. Is there a height limit to playing the part?

[@c.colmenares2359]

Me too, except for a SLIGHT problem, I can't sing. Oh well.

[@autumnde-morette8883]

Dyl Bange Generally they say the restriction is 5"7, but there have been exceptions so you never know!

[@AbbySitton]

I kinda want to as well, but I'm 5'10", an Alto, and have little vocal training. Oh well.

[@glossbones]

Omg Desi!

[@KACDWFCD]

[@MrDefyinggravity1]

So we have seen Glinda's bubble ride I think we should see elphabas defying gravity point of view

[@SlowxParentsCrossing]

They showed that in Lindsay Mendez's vlog!! I think it was like the 3 or 4th episode

[@SlowxParentsCrossing]

I'm a total liar. It was the 8th episode lol

[@MrDefyinggravity1]

I thought I had seen all of them haha I will look back at them now thank you

[@CountryCowboy008]

MrDefyinggravity1 Yep! Lindsay let us show her perspective during the Defying Gravity moment thru her Fly Girl webisode.. And darn, dude! I'm a guy, but I think Glinda's bubble ride is a lot scarier than I thought! It's so damn high!

[@maddie8260]

We have on fly girl

[@leahmoore6820]

All it is is a carabiner holding her in.

[@UnicornFilms2001]

I just realized Kara did these...well after she began filming them. That's so off, because I've literally seen her walking around and talking into a camera before when I've been backstage grabbing something for my father (who works on the lighting crew) or delivering food to the dressing rooms. I always feel that "oops" videos are really important, especially for people aspiring to be on Broadway. It shows that even Broadway, something many people see as perfect, has flaws and mistakes. It brings shows down-to-earth for the crowd and brings it and the actors who perform in it down from pedestals we often place them on. We definitely need more of these types of videos in the Broadway community

[@tenillen4191]

Hey!!! That's my wizard!! :)

[@broadwaymike92]

7:58 - Carla Stickler!!! Applaud her following the recent news of her going on for "Elphaba" randomly at a moment's notice at the top of 2022!!! 7 years since she last did it and 9:57 - Desi Oakley who is iconic!!! Her voice is spectacular. Halfway during her time in WICKED in 2015, she later also got plucked to being the "Elphaba" understudy. Sad she only got to do the role TWICE. Hoping she returns and does "Elphaba" fulltime 8 times a week in the near future.

[@meluuunia6949]

I just watched Wicked and met Kara! She was amazing onstage and super sweet when I met her at the stage door!

[@annelisehoshal4228]

"Everybody run." And we ran. Hilarious!!

[@followthewizard359]

Yes, but what exactly happened that time? I don't get it.

[@alexisgreenberg6558]

I love these kind of blogs! Please make some more with phantom and wicked!

[@bradenmills624]

4:47 Andy Karl and Mandy Gonzalez. They've done some cool things since Wicked.

[@sarawellborn4406]

Do u ever get nervous? And what do u do if you forget your lines?

[@erinsiandavies]

omg cute
