Caissie Levy backstage at Wicked

[jamesjgls]

I LOVE CAISSIE!!! saw her in Ghost The Musical in London and she was amazing, stunning!! met her back stage afterwards and she was so sweet, so lovely! x

[sarrao1]

My sons, ages 9 and 12, LOVED this show. They particularly enjoyed the dragon, flying monkeys, wizard, and upbeat music!

[bobbie406]

cant wait to see her in ghost the musical :D

[jldmurray13]

guys go to broadway shows to!

[dancerr625]

uhh i love how random the times are?

haha, 2 and 8 one day then 1 and 6.30 the next...

wtf. i'd get so confused.

[IHopeYouAreHappy11]

just to clear everything up:

-this wasn't shot ON Mother's Day (Caissie's last), but it probably aired around that time, so it would have been shot a couple days/weeks before and aired a couple days before..

-this was prolly hours before the evening show(or between shows if shot on day w/ 2 shows), and she got greened up to show how the makeup goes on

-she wore that costume so because it's the symbolic witch. more familiar than the Shiz costume

-it obviously wasn't during a quick change

any ?s

[Disneydanny]

not only that but Elphaba's first scene is what,10-12 mins into the show

[silenthillmaster755]

1:18 the girl in purple like, totally inturupted her.

[NobodyInAllofOZ1]

most likely she wore the more witchy costume to make the people see her as the wicked witch of the west and maybe this was filmed ona monday

[ILuvEdwardCullen2day]

that was SO cool I love Caissie!!!! What a fabulous voice! And she seems soo sweet!!

[sydneycia]

She is quite sweet. I had the privilege to meet her backstage actually between shows. She was very welcoming and genuine, even though she had a second performance in just a few hours. Wonderful performer.

[bcrocker33]

agreed. the most genuine "star" i have met really. she was interested in what i had to say and remembered my name the second time i saw her. i adore her and her talent.

[DOLLYPOPS]

whyd she get green and then put on her DG outfit ?

[IHopeYouAreHappy11]

was that comment to me? you didn't reply to me so i couldn't tell. but, she's wearing it for the interview. to show the audience what she goes through in ref. to the makeup. many people find it fascinating. how little there is, the detail & that it's green! she's wearing that outfit because it looks closest to the WOO one. if she was in her Shiz clothes, ppl would be like WHA!? Plus, i don't think she'd stop for an interview IN THE MIDDLE of a show & a 30 SECOND quick change on her LAST DAY..

[DOLLYPOPS]

ohh hahah i can sooo see her running back into the dressing room after the interview and changing into shiz clothes hahaha

[wwefan587]

i thought that too!

[silenthillmaster755]

Yea she would be in her Shiz costume for the Wizard and I, there is only 30 seconds for her to change. maybe she greened up just for the interview?

[jewey896]

i know, that really confused me! haha!

[jackskellingtonsora]

She's wearing the Defying Gravity outfit because it looks good on tv. If they're coming tonight than she should be changing into her Shiz outfit.

And I don't like this clip, it makes Wicked look lame, when it's really quite badass.

[bubbafluff21]

why does it make it look lame?

[jackskellingtonsora]

I don't know, just something about the way she talks and acts makes it look lame. Don't get me wrong, I think Casey Levy is incredible, it's just this clip is not the best.

[bubbafluff21]

yea i get what you mean wicked is for EVERYONE and truly everyone

[iheartwicked91]

i hate how in moat videos they say something bout "girls blah blah" the show is for guys too, and it touches everyone.

[bubbafluff21]

lol yea for everyone in one interview i believe it was Idina she says its for everyone and she goes on how its for everyone haha

[Hairsprayxoxoful]

@iheartwicked91 Thank you! I know, its like people always say it appeals to girls, but thats not true.

[iheartwicked91]

@Hairsprayxoxoful hahah yup, thats one of the things that pisses me off so easily, everytime. in alot of Wicked promo vids they say "it appeals to girls because of the stong relationship glinda and elphaba hold" .....as if guys cant be close to another guy friend....well thats so not fair or true because my BFF is a guy and you can compare us to the 2 witches just cuz we are always there for each other and we love each other no matter what (popular or green)

[bookworm1138]

@iheartwicked91 same here. i feel like i'm getting 'snubbed' because i'm a guy and i like Wicked, yet nobody seems to care about the guy-fans

[iheartwicked91]

@bookworm1138 yup! its almost like they are saying "oh guys cant have the kinda of relationship that glinda and elphaba have" which is so false! i'm living proof of it.

[9ALLEN9]

Mothers day....May 11th....which happened to be Caissie last! So this is probably the only video of her from her last day and last video of her as Elphaba! I miss you Caissie!

[IHopeYouAreHappy11]

Actually, probably not. Since this is a mother's day themed interview, i assume it aired on Mother's day, so, it wouldn't have been filmed on then..it was probably filmed a couple days before..i doubt she would have a interview about Wicked the day she left...not that she would have anything against it, but it's telling people to come see her you when she's not going to be there! haha...i just think it would be really emotional backstage, anyway...

[TotallyRandom6353]

i saw cassie in hairspray

[KCfan7989]

cool. who did she play?

[TotallyRandom6353]

Penny pingleton

[princesscharming23]

Caissie was PHENOMENAL as Elphaba!

[FireGirlG]

I saw the show for the first time in what turned out to be her last week. I saw her like May 7th. She was phenomenal! Favorite Elphie, and I have since seen Eden as well.

[entertainer1987]

She's going to be playing Sheila in the revial of "Hair" on Broadway. I'm excited to see how she plays the role.

[Zukoluver5]

I saw her in March, she was amazing!

[inlovewithJLT]

Why was she getting into her OSD/DG outfit? If this was before a performance she should have been getting into her Shiz costume and wig, and there's no time for an interview before her OSD entrance.

[degeorgetitanic]

they prolly did that cuz that costume looks more like a witch outfit so they prolly just did it.

[amybrooke816]

Hahah I was just thinking that.

[wickedpuds]

she wasn't cuz when they walked in it was day and cassie sed ur comng to the show TONIGHT so it means she was painted green just a little earlier, then probobly they left, then she changed into her shiz. but i understand wat u thought.

[TimeToFlyTrades]

She was in her OSD outfit because this was filmed on a Sunday when there is two shows and they were interviewing her before and during her 1pm show and they were going to the 6.30 show.

[Fiyero823]

She wouldn't have that much time to talk to them before her entrance in One Short Day.

[KerryEllisAndI]

Yeah! That costume change is less than 20 seconds.

[silenthillmaster755]

Plus, if the show is going on, then the mom is supposed to be there, in the theatre.

[Steven123789]

@inlovewithJLT WOW! amazing observation! im a fanatic of wicked and i didnt even notice, i was just so taken by the backstage i didnt realize that you're absolutely right xD

[kelseystevenson1992]

@inlovewithJLT maybe this was for a rehearsal...?

[HappyIsWhatHappens]

@inlovewithJLT There wouldnt be time during any part of the show haha! I was thinking maybe this from when Cassie was a standby....but still idk if she would change into her OSD/DG outfit. But when a standby is on duty, the earliest they can go on is One Short Day. And when they are on duty they get in costume and wig and makeup ready to go.

[qubrown11]

@inlovewithJLT In the very beginning of the show, there is a shadow of her in the costume in the background

[inlovewithJLT]

@qubrown11 But that's a computer-generated projection, not the actress standing in front of a spotlight.

[1christiel]

@inlovewithJLT maybe a promo performance? like idina and kristin at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day

Parade

[13Elphaba13]

How did she get to do this? I would love to do this.

[MikeBorley]

Caissie's so beautiful!

[itsMARTHAtime]

i know right!

[xxkizzyxx]

i went as elphie for a fancy dress thing ... i love wearing the green haha :D ace vid =]

[CrazyAboutWicks]

aww this was her last show

[generoussupply]

2:38 - the hat actually has a "Wicked" logo inside of it. I'm obsessed.

[charmed1115]

lol i have a Wicked hat also with a logo in it. it was custom made for me and my hat is alot similiar to Caissie's haha.

[13Elphaba13]

Oh my Gosh! Where did you get the hat??? I want one now! help!! lol

[charmed1115]

i love this!

[singingjosh]

why is she wearin that costume? lol she only puts that on in a rele quick change b4 one short day....

[mccreadboy]

its just an interview this was probably done before or between shows

but thats what people recognize when they see the witch.

[generoussupply]

xty i love youuuu for ripping this and putting it up
