in this one, is Guhlinda played by Kristen Chenowith? I seriously don't like her annoying singing... I prefer Katie Rose Clarke!! She's perfect for the role!
Okay one, this video is illegal. I'm surprised you didn't get caught.
And two, when I saw Wicked there was a much bigger and deserved applause than this...
True I didn't see this particular show, but I'm seeing this clip and I'm confused as to why there is such minimal clapping. There performance was great! Also no one laughed at the funny parts...goodness gracious tough crowd...
One of my favorite parts in the whole musical is when Elphaba's mother and the secret lover are dancing. I don't know why but that is just such a smooth scene!!!
I'm doing a production of this and I'm the secret lover and the wizard and just watching this I relise that these people are actually amazing and wants to make me perform to the best of my ability :P good luck me :L
this song always gives me chills. I can't help it. Last night I was at a band competition, and they had a wizard of oz theme. When they played this.... my goosebumps couldn't contain themselves.
I just realized after listening to this song a million times that when Glinda sings "when you're wicked you're left only on your own" she's singing about herself. she thinks elphaba, her only real friend, is dead, fiero has left her and now she blames herself. so sad:(
@AltosAreBetter1995 That is so perceptive of you, really. I have seen the show countless times like many others and have never seen that; I'm sure there are so many other moments just like this one! Go you!
@AltosAreBetter1995 Huh. Never thought of that. I always assumed she was referring to Elphaba, how everyone thought she was evil and what a lonely life she had. ("She died alone...")
@nickiejoekevin he must have the money to do so...i don´t. i´m so looking forward to the movie ;-; it´s no longer airing in germany (only till end of august)and i only had the chance to watch it in london last week, once. D: hope they hurry up with that film version. can´t wait.
@Namibiangirly as far as i know elphaba will be played by idina menzel, but that´s just what i´ve heard^^ i´m not sure, but since she already has experience as an actor ("enchanted"^^) it´s probably true. :) don´t know about the rest. though.
@Namibiangirly the musical singers are, but german actors aren´t xD we will have the film dubbed anyway so they will probably use the german singers for that. (that´s what they did with phantom of the opera :))
Just saw Wicked. It was... it was...? Evil? Abhorrent? Malicious? Twisted? What is the word I'm looking for... starts with "w"... Warped? Witch-y? Wumbo??? Ah hell, it was good!
who the hell is this glinda? has no on commented on that seriously!!!! is not like your asking the poster the qeustion in front of his or her face T__T
The green shadow is always a front projection. But in touring productions the black shadow in the end is a projection but in other productions (such as broadway) are actual shadows from behind the stage.
I know the green Elphaba silhouette in the begging is a projection from the from but the shadow at the end I think is in non traveling productions a shadow and in traveling productions a projections
If you guys have any ?'s then just message me and I can answer them. I probably know alot more then you guys. I see alot of failed info about this musical on here.
@georgiaherdman2009 It's all that's left of the Elphaba who has just melted - we start at the end and jump back to the beginning, but again at the end of the show you hear No One Mourns the Wicked (Reprise), and also again with the hat (albeit a lighting effect)
@georgiaherdman2009 Ohhh right I think I misunderstood your question. In all honestly, that I can not answer with 100% certainty. However, after seeing the Broadway, Chicago, and touring casts live, I noticed that the hat prop /was/ indeed absent from all productions other than the one on Broadway. Not sure why, probably because of the stage set-up required for trapping/removing it mid-scene.
I'm going to give everyone some advice.... If you're traveling up to New York and plan to see a broadway show go in late april... the entire broadway community comes together to raise money to fight AIDS...they sell tours to go backstage and also signed posters.. when i saw Phantom they offered the monkey from the show signed by the phantom to the first person to give $1000 but the posters that were signed were all $40... great deal..
@TheBlahface Why are we even wasting our time on this "woflves4eva?" She is is merely an uneducated, lying, stupid, worthless little moron. Surely we have better things to do than attempt to enlighten the brainless rabble?
@sunaxtemari93 I mean um... Actually, I think I have it all wrong. I thought it was Elphaba's dad (but not the wizard), but now I think it might have been the wizard and Elphaba's mom. Still leaning towards Elphaba's dad, though.
I saw this like 1 or 2 months ago and I was CRYING my eyes out from how amazing it was. I had been wanting to watch this since well....... I dont remember. The whole performance was more the astonishing. I wish i could see it again. :( i am glad I could see this show before I died
I'm honestly glad to see comments on this have more brain behind them. Youtube video comments sometimes make you want to slap the person commenting. Anyway, I love this scene. Thanks for uploading.
I LOVE this musical <3 I saw it in London last week with Rachel Tucker and Louise Dearman as Elphaba and Glinda :) It's sad tho how Glinda has to act happy to the ozians when her best friend just got melted :(
@AngelofaDaemon 1st - you should really warn people about spoilers. And second: (SPOILER ALERT) even though Elphie wasn't truly melted, and Fiyero wasn't truly dead, Glinda never knows that. She thinks that the love of her life and her best (and only true) friend are dead. Wicked is meant to be seen several times, and to be thought provoking. The line "the wicked die alone"....actually applies more to Glinda than Elphaba, because ultimately, Glinda is the one left truly alone. Food for thought.
@Matdredalia crap......never really thought of that.....an yea i wish i could go see it again but one tickets are damn expensive an two no one to go with me lol. an sry to anyone who had their bubble popped by my comment leakage >.< an yea i didnt remember that part of the musical since its been so long. :(
@AngelofaDaemon LOL no worries, we all make that flub sometimes. And I haven't even been able to SEE it yet! I got the Soundtrack, looked up a copy of the whole script, and used YouTube videos to get as much of the experience as I could, lol. But I've listened to, watched, and re-read the whole thing more times than I can even count, and each time I do, I feel like I learn a bit more and understand a bit more. Thank Oz for YouTube! <3
@AngelofaDaemon That tends to be the general concensus amongst most fans. I honestly haven't met a fan yet who prefers the book over the musical. I think that's because A) sometimes Gregory Maguire gets so caught up in the message he's attempting to convey that he actually forgets he's writing fiction, and lets the characters and story become somewhat lifeless. Around the time Elphie heads to to the Vinkus, the book just starts failing. and B) The musical makes the characters come to (cont...)
@AngelofaDaemon ..(cont from previous comment) come to life in a way that the book just never really does. Maguire is great at making characters unlikable and sinister, but BAD at making pleasing characters. Many times, it makes no sense why Elphie likes Fiyero, is friends with Glinda, etc. Maguire had a great story idea, but needs help bringing his characters to life. The musical, however, not only brings them to life, but it makes them feel like cherished, lifelong friends that you love.
@Woflves4eva wooow you had to get your brother in this? Thats funny cuz it looks like he doesnt know hom to spell correctly eitherr. & you meeting kristen & idena is a complete LIE. Bulllshiiit. But honestly i think the funniest thing ive seen all day is your youtube username. You cant even spell wolves right . #getalife .
Who the hell is this @wolves4eva chick? Idk what version of this play YOU were "in" , but the wizard is most definitly her father. Get your facts straight hun . & the wizard&i is NOT about her loving the wizard. Thats gross. Its about her dreams of fitting in & eVeryone looking up to her instead of looking down on her coming true. Go see the play, sweetheart.
Hey! I never realized that Elphaba's shadow appears behind them all, towards the end of No One Mourns... sorry, I'm not as thoroughly familiar with this play as I might be. And I'm usually busy trying to pay attention to G(a)linda at that point.
@lilpunkin226 elphaba's mom had an affair with that guy while the governor was away.. we learn later on that it was the wizard, who is elphaba's true father
@WondersNassiri wat r u talking about? the governor is her true father shes green cuz the GREEN elixer her lover gave her! the wizard is in love with elphaba! thats sick if hes her father! thats just rong get ur facts straight cuz i know everytihng bout this play! so get ur facts straight
@woflves4eva uhh...hate to burst your bubble but...the wizard of oz is elpheba's father...hence: "i am a sentimental man who always longed to be a father" and hence the flashback in act 2 of when he comes into the room with the green elixir...and hence the wizard breaks down when he realizes he's HER FATHER! that's the whole point that the wizard is seen as well "wonderful" and elpheba is an outcast and then the twist is that he's her father but she denies him anyways because it's what's right.
@ROWANV1 hate to burst ur bubble but the woman (elphabas mother) was pregnat b4 the affair! elphaba is green cuz of the green elixer the lover is a store owner! the wizard is in love with elphaba thats rong if hes her father. i was in a musical theatre production of this play and if u read the script u can see hes in love with her as she says in the wizard and i. use ur useless logic all u want but i know everything about this play. to bad u dont.
@woflves4eva Sorry but i am a part of the creative team that designed Wicked the musical. I am looking at a copy of the original script and in it, it says (once the wizard realizes Elphaba had a small green bottle) "The Wizard sinks to his knees, heartbroken, realizing he has had his own daughter 'liquidated'. " Sorry to prove you wrong another point is the whole song "I am a sentimental man, i always longed to be A FATHER". It ties the ENTIRE show together... Don't be an a**hole. Thanks.
@ROWANV1 despite the fact that in the "sentimental man" reprise Madame Morrible says (AND I AM QUOTING!) "So, she was YOURS all along..." And In the musical there is no reference or any suggestion whatsoever that Elpheba's mother is pregnant before the affair...useless logic?
@woflves4eva yeaaah... that explains perfectly why he sings "I am a sentimental man who always longed to be a father" as he held on to the elixir reminiscing about the affair with the mother.. in the wizard and I, she sings about how they can be a working pair because she thinks they have similar powers. that also explains why stephen schwartz also says in his own synopsis of the play that the wizard is elphaba's true father... Ps: learn to speak, would ya? grow up, you sound like you're 13
@WondersNassiri in the wizard and i she talks bout being IN LOVE with the wizard. im fukin 16 u stupid bich. in act 2 u see the shop owner selling the green elixer to several people. and u sound like u dont know wat the fuk ur talkin bout i own the script from the real play so shut ur god damm mouth u stupid bich
@woflves4eva ...wow... it's people like you that give our generation a bad name... your level of ignorance and immaturity is so high, you're an embarrassment to teenagers AND theatre people...

I think that's because A) sometimes Gregory Maguire gets so caught up in the message he's attempting to convey that he actually forgets he's writing fiction, and lets the characters and story become somewhat lifeless. Around the time Elphie heads to to the Vinkus, the book just starts failing. and B) The musical makes the characters come to (cont...)

@AngelofaDaemon ..(cont from previous comment) come to life in a way that the book just never really does. Maguire is great at making characters unlikable and sinister, but BAD at making pleasing characters. Many times, it makes no sense why Elphie likes Fiyero, is friends with Glinda, etc. Maguire had a great story idea, but needs help bringing his characters to life. The musical, however, not only brings them to life, but it makes them feel like cherished, lifelong friends that you love.

Who the hell is this @wolves4eva chick? Idk what version of this play YOU were "in" , but the wizard is most definitly her father. Get your facts straight hun . & the wizard&i is NOT about her loving the wizard. Thats gross. Its about her dreams of fitting in & eVeryone looking up to her instead of looking down on her coming true. Go see the play, sweetheart.

Hey! I never realized that Elphaba's shadow appears behind them all, towards the end of No One Mourns... sorry, I'm not as thoroughly familiar with this play as I might be. And I'm usually busy trying to pay attention to G(a)linda at that point.

woflves4eva 1 year ago
@woflves4eva uhh...hate to burst your bubble but...the wizard of oz is elpheba's father...hence: "i am a sentimental man who always longed to be a father" and hence the flashback in act 2 of when he comes into the room with the green elixir...and hence the wizard breaks down when he realizes he's HER FATHER! that's the whole point that the wizard is seen as well "wonderful" and elpheba is an outcast and then the twist is that he's her father but she denies him anyways because it's what's right.

@ROWANV1 hate to burst ur bubble but the woman (elphabas mother) was pregnat b4 the affair! elphaba is green cuz of the green elixer the lover is a store owner! the wizard is in love with elphaba thats rong if hes her father. i was in a musical theatre production of this play and if u read the script u can see hes in love with her as she says in the wizard and i. use ur useless logic all u want but i know everything about this play. to bad u dont.
woflves4eva 1 year ago
@woflves4eva Sorry but i am a part of the creative team that designed Wicked the musical. I am looking at a copy of the original script and in it, it says (once the wizard realizes Elphaba had a small green bottle) "The Wizard sinks to his knees, heartbroken, realizing he has had his own daughter 'liquidated'. " Sorry to prove you wrong another point is the whole song "I am a sentimental man, i always longed to be A FATHER". It ties the ENTIRE show together... Don't be an a**hole. Thanks.

woflves4eva 1 year ago
@ROWANV1 despite the fact that in the "sentimental man" reprise Madame Morrible says (AND I AM QUOTING!) "So, she was YOURS all along..." And In the musical there is no reference or any suggestion whatsoever that Elpheba's mother is pregnant before the affair...useless logic?

@ROWANV1 Why did you say that to yourself?
shelbynethercot 1 year ago
@woflves4eva yeaaah... that explains perfectly why he sings "I am a sentimental man who always longed to be a father" as he held on to the elixir reminiscing about the affair with the mother.. in the wizard and I, she sings about how they can be a working pair because she thinks they have similar powers. that also explains why stephen schwartz also says in his own synopsis of the play that the wizard is elphaba's true father... Ps: learn to speak, would ya? grow up, you sound like you're 13
