I just wanted to applaude Alexia Khadime after I seen her as Elphaba last night, she's brought something totally different to the role and in my eyes has redefined the character. Her voice is incredible and I think she may have a little more charm than Kerry Ellis. I can see this girl going far.

They were worse than the Chin-dina "never hit that note in defying gravity once" Jaw-zel fangirls.

Hah. I enjoyed that post.

I agree. Saw Alexia for the first time as Elphaba last week and was blown away, much better performance than I saw Kerry Ellis give a few months ago. Definatly something new about Alexia. I think at certain points shes a bit more 'wicked' in her singing than Kerry was which brings the whole idea of her being a 'wicked witch' to life.

Congratulations! You are actually an idiot!

Shame that I never heard her hitting it when I went to see the show four times with her besides all the other off tunes I had to listen to.

So the lead was so terrible that she hit the wrong note more than once...........and you still went back on 3 more occasions. She can't have been THAT bad then...

Or perhaps "Mags" was going to see the show for something other than the lead. There's more to the theatre than a single person. Some people go for the show itself and, knowing that no casting is permanent, are able to endure the occasional poor performance until that person's employment comes to an end.
