I would just like to add Stephanie J Block to the list of Elphaba's : ) I saw her in person and she was phenomenal!!! Eden is amazing too though, i wish i was lucky enough to see her in person....
After just watching her on the vid where her voice completely cracks, i thought Omg, Absolutely crap, but watching this now, she is actually really good, and maybe she ws ill or something, because that was brilliant :)
i really love her voice. it's nice and rich, but not too much so. some of the elphaba's have really sensual-sounding voices, and i don't think that fits elphie's character at all. eden is still capable of sounding young and idealistic.
I wish they would zoom in on her face more. Her facial expressions are what set her apart from everyone else who has done this role. The way she interprets the lyrics you'd think "of course that's how Elphaba would say it".
eden is i think the best elphaba next to idina i have seen kerry didnt like her i have seen cassie didnt like her as weel as others and eden i believe is the best so if you think she is nasely its ok becasue you dont know what good is
I think she sounds nasally on video but she does sound really powerful and good live...I saw her and i was so blown away during DG that i cried my eyes out! I dont remember any of it! :(!!!!
uh you know, it really doesnt look like she is bothered by the screaming. actually from the way she is smiling i would say she is enjoying it. if i was eden, and i had all of those people screaming for me, i would smile too.
i love being on stage and recieving respect from audiences members while my performance is going on.. not after the fact.... i think eden is great, and I would have been supporting her with my vocalization!!!
what? we dont just wait til the end of the song to clap!
wow what a voice she has, and she really acts through the song. i love wicked sooo much! its incredible when you can find a musical where you cant find a song you dont like! my favourite actors are idina and megan
Oh how snotty. I have seen london videos and I hear cheering when the performers are singing. You guys aren't perfect. How old school...the americans...pssh...bite your tongue.
eden sings her soul off and that is what is appreciated...end of story

Eden, you *are* standing with the real Wizard, Stephen Schwartz. Love the performance, thanks.

I'm lucky I got to see her and the rest of the original LA cast. She is wonderful (no pun intended lol). Definitely in my top 5. Probably 2nd or 3rd.

She is VERY passionate and throws herself into the roll - performers like are hard on themselves and sometimes a little inconsistent.
When I saw her she was absolutely Brilliant! Yea Eden.

Very nice! I still dont get why American audiences cheer throughout, at certain notes or musical bits or set changes etc, its odd.

we just don't know how to be respectful audience members. Simple as that.

Oh okay, heh. Come over to England, we clap after the song/dance routine has finished only, and only cheer right at the end usually :P
