Thanks!

Does anyone know if Alisson Luff and Jenn Gambatese will still be with the show in August?

Allison just joined! And Jenn should be! When did she start. They've been signing 6 month contracts lately!

I saw the show back in March and Allison wasn't in yet, so she will definitely be there for a while. I did see Jenn, though. (She was amazing)

I really like Jenn as Jane in Tarzan a few years ago...I've heard great things about her Glinda..even though she is an older actress playing Glinda...and I've heard Alison Luff sounds great as Elphaba...

I watched Jenn and Alison in New Orleans. I really wasn't impressed with Jenn's performance. She sang the role much lower than I am use to, and she really chewed the scenery at points. I will say that "Thank Goodness" was a highlight for her.

Alison on the other hand was excellent.

Alison's defying gravity is one of the best I've heard vocally. I could see he taking over on broadway someday

Alison Luff is fantastic as Elphaba. Her voice is incredible. If you're lucky enough to see both her and Jenn Gambatese, you will not be disappointed. It is the most exciting Wicked cast in a while, plus Curt Hansen is Fiyero and he looks great in those pants.

Isn't John Davidson playing the Wizard?

I saw Jenn in Costa Mesa and she was great, even if she is a lot more belty than most Glinda's I've heard.

I'm surprised that there isn't any "proof" of Alison Luff's performance yet. I've been checking and I can't find anything.

"Isn't John Davidson playing the Wizard?"

Yes is he and Charliesgirl here's a link to the website where you can see the cities Wicked is playing in and which tour cast will be performing.

Visceral, same with Gambatese.

Can anyone comment more on Curt Hansen as Fiyero? I know the character doesn't have much to do, but how does he sound? I enjoyed Hansen in the NEXT TO NORMAL tour 2 years ago and would love to see him in this (and it doesn't hurt that I find him incredibly attractive and, as someone else mentioned, he must look great in those pants).

" Hansen is a perfect visual fit for the pretty little rich boy who gets caught up in a love triangle between Glinda and Elphaba, and though the story brings too little development of his character, he delivers one of the best performances I've seen of "Dancing Through Life". His emotional duet with Luff, "As Long As You're Mine", is beautiful and haunting."

I would have to agree with this assessment from Broadwayworld.com

Agreed. Curt Hansen was one of my favorites onstage, and normally I'm not a big Fiyero fan.

gavyj: my thoughts exactly on Jenn. She was very sweet and fun to talk to at the stage door, but her Glinda just seemed a bit too artificial for my liking.

Loved Alison Luff's Elphaba! The last show in New Orleans, she tried out some riffs on "The Wizard and I" and sounded amazing.

I really hope Alison Luff transfers to the broadway production. I'd rather see her than Lindsay Mendez...even though she sounds amazing from what I've heard.

Wow! So excited for Vosk!

Just bought my ticket yesterday to the Wicked tour when they're at the Kennedy Center in DC in December! So excited! Here's hoping the show will be great, and I can't wait to see how Jessica Vosk does as Elphaba. It'll be my first time ever seeing the show so I'm sure she'll impress!

Anybody seeing the show in South Bend? Really interested in hearing about Vosk's Elphaba!
