I can't understand how people cannot like this video (did they miss the like-button or something?). In my opinion it's such a wonderful video. To have English-speaking people here in Germany watching Wicked and giving a positive feedback is such an honour for us, the producers and the entire cast. Thank you! :)
Willemijn is awesome as Elphaba! I saw her last week in Oberhausen with Anton Zetterholm as Fiyero - I hab goose bumps when they sang "As Long As Your Mine". Willemijn has such a passionate voice and she truly lives the role of Elphaba.
WOW this made my day!! I saw it in Stuttgart In May of 2009! I saw Willemijn, Valerie Link (alternate Glinda) and Julia De Aquino as Morrible (RIP)! I loved how the monkeys actually fly over the audience! This production has so much energy compared to other productions (imo)!
@JulelovesUSA I was telling her that she was very passionate and the kiss was exciting...in the UK it was more reserved and I had just seen it there the week before xxxxxx
omg! i"ve never heard Willemijn Speak English before its soooo weird!!! because everytime i see her she is always doing the show which is of course in german!
she needs to hop on a plane and get to the U.S.!!!!!
By the way, it has been decided by now that Willemijn will definitely reprise the role of Elphaba in Oberhausen, which is really good news! I honestly can't imagine a better Elphaba than her, and I've seen loads of videos and also some life performances of others...
And I agree that the differences coming with the translation are really interesting! Overall, the English original of course beats the translation, but there are some very poetic parts in the German version as well... :)
Oh my God I love this video *_* I can`t wait ti have some of them here near me in Oberhausen xD Hey you are not crazy actualy you not went green into the show like a friend of mine and me xD We have an amazing funny picture with Roberta Valentini (she was our Elphaba this day) where we are all green xD
Great video, thank you for uploading! Do you want to visit th show in Oberhausen as well?
One more question: I didn´t understand the whole parte with Willemijn when you asked her something with th kiss... Could someone tell me what she said?
Now its over :( No longer Wicked in Stuttgart. I have seen the show 6 times and Willemijn and Roberta are such great Elphabas and all the Glindas are great. And now Lucy is gone :'(
She will also be the Elphaba in Oberhausen........i can't wait to see her :) I live in Oberhausen and went to Stuttgart to see the show, but my Elphaba was Sabrina -.-
Very cool video! I'm seeing the US 2nd National Tour when they hit Durham in April. (I'm seeing it in May) Marcie Dodd and Helene Yorke are Elphaba and Glinda. I know you saw Marcie when you saw the show here in the States. I saw this linked to a video a friend sent me. Just saying Hello!
I love foreign languages and I think Willemijn is THE COOLEST person for being fluent in Dutch, German AND English! You can't really hear her accent here, and in German interviews they've complemented her on her German!
Best Elphaba! You're sooo lucky you got to see her!!
Isnt Willemijn so awesome? I've only seen videos of her, and I am so moved by the powerfulness in her voice! I'm so relieved that she can speak English, because I left a note on her website, and I ope she got it. Also, in the catfight, I always have heard that she does a freakish squeak at the end of her laugh. "Moq". . .how very interesting.
thank you soooo much for posting this jewelchic!!!!
i have seen wicked all around the world too - london, new york, melbourne and stuttgart!!
willemijn is my favourite elphaba, and indeed was the reason i WENT to stuttgart, but when i went there, i had her understudy roberta valentini (she was phenomenal though)
but i agree, watching wicked in a different language puts a different spin to it.
I saw this when I was in Stuttgart as well, and was fortunate to see Willemijn as Elphaba. You are so right! She puts so much passion into her character. I love her! :D
Thank you for uploading this! It was great to "see" her again.
Willemijn Verkaik is such a beautiful Elphaha. They need to bring her to the Broadway production. She is so sweet and your german was really good. :) I was born and lived in Germany for three years. Gorgeous country.
Thanks a lot for this realy great video! I could not belive that you can everytime when you're at wicked can meet the actors. thanks for upload, and sorry for my bad english, i'm german. (when i bought the book, i did not get the second, smaller one:'(...)
You were very glad with the cast!!! But if you´ll see it next time in Germany, you´ll have to see Lucy Scherer as Glinda. She´s the First Cast and the BEST Glinda I know. She IS Glinda!! Thx for the video.
