I know Ms Menzel was starring in If/Then at the time but I did expect a pop up at curtain call seeing as she was in town... They had a special 10th Tony Awards performance too where the current leads performed For Good!

A friend has got cast as a lead in the tour, so guess we should have full casting announced for tour and town soon.

(I'm making the assumption they were starting performances at the same time)

"firefingers", are you trolling? If not, what role was it (no need for your friends name) I am very skeptical whether or not to believe you!
In recent Wicked London news....
Emma Hatton went off mid-show at the Saturday matinee due to back issues (throwback two years anyone?) Natalie Andreou finished Act 2 and did the evening show (16th April, 2016). Natalie Andreou was on as Elphaba Monday night also (18th April, 2016), Emma came back last night but once again Natalie Andreou is on as Elphaba for both shows today (20th April, 2016)

Has anyone dayseated for Wicked on a Saturday recently? I'm hoping to get day seats for the matinee this Saturday and wanted to know the latest time I could arrive... roughly, of course.

I day seated in January, arrived just before 8am and was 7th (ish) in the line. By 10am there were easily 100 people queuing (I exaggerate perhaps but they definitely didn't all get served!)

Not one with a high standard of English either. Reads to me as they know who the lead Glinda is. I'm sure we all know that. I assume they meant they know who it's going to be

But why post in both Wicked threads? Do you know the new tour Glinda or the West End One?

Hey, I've been away from this thread. Can someone update me? Cast change? Cast change is supposed to be on the 3rd September, but this information has been taken down from the show's website again. No-one knows who's leaving and who's staying on. Another possibility might be that the current cast simply extend their contracts until after the 10th anniversary show (27th September). Nothing has been confirmed as of yet and we're only speculating. We do hope that the International Tour and London casts will be announced shortly.

Does anyone know the date of Rachel's last show on Broadway? I'm pretty sure I read it was mid-June but can't remember where I saw that! Just checking before I go booking tickets to see her!

It's on June 19. I'd recommend following the @rtfb1981 twitter account 'cause it gives reliable info on when Rachel takes days off.

Thanks for the info, I'm going in May so looks like I'll avoid her holidays. Better book the ticket, very much looking forward to seeing her again!

I was walking through the centre of Birmingham earlier this afternoon when I saw a line of people, camp chairs and tents, hot drinks in hand, camped outside a shop...I thought for a moment I had fallen through a gap in the space time continuum and landed outside the Apollo Vic on the eve of Cast Change! As it turns out, STA Travel have 49 return flights to Thailand going on sale tomorrow for £49 each and it's first come first served!
