Hey Guys,

I am looking to see Wicked again when it comes to Toronto in June and was just wondering who is currently in the cast, and if you would recommend seeing the cast? I do not want to be disappointed in the cast, because I saw it on Broadway with Rachel Tucker and Kara Lindsay, and they were mind-blowing, I would want my jaw to hit the floor again (because it did, literally). 


Please let me know what you guys think.

Mary Kate (and Ginna Claire) is only contracted until late June. Unless MK extends, there should be a new duo!

Thanks for posting this, as I am debating getting tickets for the tour later this summer.

Weird that they don't just end their contracts at the end of an engagement. Going June 24th, and wonder who we'll get.

Ginna Claire's contract ends June 3rd and she is planning on leaving then, but MK's is a bit longer. Maybe until August or September, not totally sure. (GC is my cousin so this is confirmed.)

BUMP! 

I'm going to assume that if Ginna Claire is leaving this weekend, there should be a casting announcement any day now?

Apparently Ginna Claire has extended through the Albuquerque run which would take her to October. So I don’t think we should expect a replacement announcement just yet.
And I remember this musical I remember their brilliance And I might never sleep again...

I heard from someone I know who works for Mirvish that in person lottery tickets will be available. That might be a good option for picking up a cheap ticket if you are unsure about how good the cast will be. 

also if you are a season subscriber, there are tickets for as low as $44.

Mary Kate Morrissey and Ginna Claire Mason both play their final performance (as of today, 5/31) on October 28, 2018.

can’t speak for rachel tucker but i saw the broadway cast last summer with jennifer dinoia and kara lindsay. kara lindsay was AMAZING and by far the best glinda i have ever seen. i would definitely still see it on tour, especially if you can get cheap tickets, but i would not go in there expecting it to be as good as you saw it in new york.
