Hey ya'll!
I am going up to New york to see the Broadway play Wicked in March. I became totally obsessed with the play and I bought the sound track, made a collage of pictures of the cast and the cast in the play. But like a week ago I found out, I am not going to see the original cast. I still want to go see it, But why did they change the cast? Its a brand new broadway play...why?
Just wanted to know & thanks... and I rate!

Ok, I know I answered this a really long time ago, but when I was in New York, I took a dance class with some cast members from Wicked and my friend asked them what happened to Idina Menzel and what happened was, in the scene where Dorthy pours water on her and she melts, Idina went to step in the trapped door and it wasn't there so she fell about 7 stories and ended up just breaking one rib. They stopped the show and she was rushed to the hospital and her standby who was all ready in green makeup filled in for like the last 10 min of the show. Pretty interesting :)

Casts can't stay the same for ever. The original cast was doing it for about a year which is pretty good. The actors get sick of it after a while and go on to other musicals or get offered movies or tv shows.
I heard a rumor....I don't know how true this is.... but that Idina Menzel went down the traped door like she does in every show but someone moved the latter and apparently she fell pretty far and broke a bunch or ribs. Regardless I don't think she would have been doing the show much longer.
As for Kristin Chenoweth, she doesn't last long in any of the shows she does.
Hope I gave you the answer you were looking for.
I'm going to New York in March t*o see it too!!
