I see everyone is saying she was ill on this night and that music is fast or whatever... Maybe it's that because she's ill, they play the music faster so she doesn't have to hold notes as long etc
I met her back in June and was actually starstruck, she is a musical theatre goddess and one of the nicest people in showbiz! If she was ill in this performance what does that say about her talent? Her "Wizard and I" is amazing here, "and I'll stand there with the wizard" gives me chills, royally abused the repeat button here :p love her <3
This is Rachel at her poorest, and I think that's saying something considering it's still a great performance! Considering the length of time she's been with the show, and how consistent she's been, I'd say she's one of the strongest vocally to play this role.
I actually liked this rendition of 'The Wizard and I' more than others I've heard from her. She was excellent when I saw her a year ago. It's time to bring her to Broadway!
@s0undstrulycrazy yes she is amazing .But there is one actresses who is more constant .Willemijn Verkaik .She plays it since 4 years without a break and has good chances to play it on braodway But youre deifnatly right she is amazing
I am so surprised she went for that NGD ending considering she is ill. You can even hear a little bit of tiredness in her voice. I love the Again riff though!
even though she is il i have to say that ending of no good deed gave me goosebumps love the growl on it :D what other elphaba can sing like this when they are ill?! :D
Will post them in full when I get chance. Yeh I was told she was ill when i brought the tickets on the day and was so shocked (and happy) when she walked out :) ... Even ill she is still THE BEST! :)
