Yes I love the casting for the most part! Not too sure about James Corden or Anna Kendrick but Meryl Streep as the Witch is perfect.

I was talking to my friend and we were discussing who our favourite Elphaba is, personally I love Rachel Tucker and I have a place in my heart for Kerry Ellis as I saw her very last show on the West End (which was amazing!). Who's yours?
Oh please, Tom is known as Carrie Fletcher's brother to me :rolleyes: I can't wait to see her in War of the Worlds this year!

I think the whole thing is cast really well but I agree with Anna Kendrick. James Corden will do a fab job, he hasn't a lot of singing in it as The Butcher (but he does have an alright voice for what he has to sing).

Rachel Tucker is amazing! I went to see Wicked in the West End during her reign but she didn't perform, her understudy Nikki Davis Jones did and tbh I wasn't disappointed, she was amazing! She also played Elphaba in Ireland recently and I didn't realise til I got there and saw her name in the programme. I got so excited and turned to my friends and was like "YOU ARE ALL IN FOR AN AMAZING SHOW!". Yeah, unfortunately never got to see Rachel Tucker live.

Kerry Ellis isn't one of my favourites but she's still fantastic. It must have been really special to see her last performance! I loved her in the Chess Anniversary Concert as Svetlana
