fanfrikintastik! couldn't b better ... nothing 2 change ... nothing 2 prove 2 anybody ... just because some people do not see it, does not mean that the beauty inside is not real and in this case incredible ... it is time ... time 4 everyone 2 see ... see through the eyes of truth and beauty ... thanxs 4 posting!!! wonder-filled ...
fantastic job! but you don't need dinner theatre people telling you that. haha i wish there was less background noise, but you couldn't control that. great job!
She was in "LESTAT" on Broadway, and does a lot of professional things in Northern California. I saw her twice as "Belle" in Beauty and the Beast. She is really good.
Elphaba is often cast Caucasian, but not always. Saycon Sengbloh played her on broadway.
Also, Nikki understudied the role of Fantine in the revival of Les Miz, another role that's usually played by Caucasian women. :) yay for colorblind casting!
@Destined2makeit I was referencing an ignorant comment made by a fellow actor I know. They told me that the role of Elphaba cannot be played by anyone who isn't Caucasian, which as you and I both know, is incredibly false. :-)
@yvonnesame actually it's Neesarose that the producers didn't like being played by someone who wasn't caucasian (hence why Saycon Sengbloh wasn't a Nessa understudy while she was Elphaba s/b
i just saw her as fantine in les miserables on wednesday! she's awesometastic! and judy kuhn was horrible in the TAC of les miz, so i can't really compare there voices
"He'll say to me I see who you truly are. A girl whom I can't rely."
She's great though

Did you see her at the Sacramento Music Circus as Belle about five years ago? She was absolutely perfect.

@Disneydanny That's interesting because the actress that played Nessa on tour and in San Francisco is of Filipino descent (DeeDee Lyn Magno Hall)

Her voice reminds me of Judy Kahn's (she voiced Pocahontas). She would be great as Elphaba.
