#1Marcie Dodd in Wicked Tour
Posted: 8/23/07 at 10:03amI went to college with Marcie and we sang together in our choir and a small singing group. I was wondering if anyone knows if any audio or video clips exist of her performing in the show? She was a legit soprano when we were in school...now she's singing Elphaba. I would love to hear her. Thanks in advance!

I am seeing the tour of Wicked this Sunday in Philadelphia. Is she the understudy/stand by or is she always Elphaba?
I'm a legit soprano but I have studied with several teachers to develop my upper notes and place them in such a way that it sounds like I'm belting and not singing lyrically. So it's possible that she has been taught to use her voice in both capacities.

Posted: 8/23/07 at 12:27pmI'm pretty sure she's just the standby...

Posted: 8/23/07 at 7:41pmShe's the actual understudy. I saw her when she went on when the tour was in East Lansing. Colleen Sexton is the stand-by. I thought she did an excellent job! She definitely seemed younger in comparison to other Elphabas I have seen.
