Wicked, Broadway's blockbuster musical, welcomed two new witches beginning Tuesday, October 9: Stephanie J. Block as Elphaba and Annaleigh Ashford as Glinda.
They lead a cast which also includes Carole Shelley as Madame Morrible, Lenny Wolpe as The Wizard, Sebastian Arcelus as Fiyero, Cristy Candler as Nessarose, Logan Lipton as Boq, and Steven Skybell as Dr. Dillamond.
Stephanie J. Block helped create the role of Elphaba in the first pre-Broadway workshops of Wicked, then starred in the production's first national tour company. Block's other Broadway credits include The Boy from Oz and The Pirate Queen.
Annaleigh Ashford comes directly from the original cast of Legally Blonde, where she starred as Delta Nu sorority sister Margot. She previously appeared as the Glinda cover in the national tour of Wicked.
