Sophie suits Glinda's role so much. She gives it so much life and personality. I saw her perform when I went to see Wicked and hands down her version of Glinda will forever remain in my memory as one of the best Glindas I've ever seen.
She also sounds like Kristen which is actually amazing!
First she was a Dorothy now she is a Glinda
She was a terrific performer when I saw her - and Laura, a few weeks after this WEL event. So, flamboyant and energetic.
100% agree. Saw it two times in a row in London because of her.
I actually think Sophie and Laura are the most connected and adorable pairing i've seen in a long time.🥺Laura's vocals are just stunning and Sophie's little 'bye' at 8:31 makes my heart melt 💚
I 100% agree. Having seen Laura and Sophie in Wicked in person, you really feel their connection. It makes the whole show just that little bit more incredible!! 💚
They have no connection never did
@@doyouhearthepeoplesing2 another video you’re spreading hate on? Now there’s a surprise
@@doyouhearthepeoplesing2 so whilst we’re all working hard day in day out to cover you’re universal credit payments you choose to spend your days sending hate to professional performers?
@@James-jm9tb i dont get that i get PIP and ESA
I watched Wicked in the UK last November, same Glinda and Elphaba and while Sophie as Glinda has her own rightful merits, I literally CRIED hearing Laura sing Defying Gravity - incredible voice, effortless, it was haunting and enchanting, especially seeing her that high up. Definitely one of the clearest voices I've heard as Elphaba. UGh!!!
I went to see Wicked in December also and Laura's version of wicked is just unreal, absolutely amazing, made me tear up too!
Couldn’t agree more!! She is phenomenal, deserves so much credit!
Least I’m not the only one who cried when Laura sang too 😢
How is Laura so effortless at Defying Gravity. It’s insane. 👏🏼👏🏼 I must see her do this live. I must. Also whilst I’m here big props to Maddie Firth for her debut as Elphaba yesterday at Birmingham she was awesome 🫶
I love the song "For Good" and it's message. Everyone you meet changes you in some way, Sometimes good sometimes bad. And Everyone makes mistakes
I feel like often the only way to have a successful performance at WEL is to choose a ballad. The group or upbeat numbers always seem to be failed by the audio/arrangement/staging.
& Juliet was really good 2019, probably because of the jukebox aspect
The ballads are probably the highlight of any musical.
Bring him home had issues
The Matilda team was good though
This is the Glinphaba I saw at the West End years ago.
I never thought I'd ever see a recording with Laura Pick. This brings me so much joy.
Yes, I saw them too last year before lockdown. She's an amazing Elphaba!
i saw them last week, laura is honestly incredible
These two women were outstanding performers during their run at London's Apollo Theatre.
One of the best Elphaba Voices everrrr! YESSSSSSS!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
So happy Sophie is back as Glinda! She's such a lovely person and has such a beautiful voice♥️
Totally agree! My favourite Glinda by far.
@@Jess-rj4ql I believe so.
@@Jess-rj4ql yes! She was Glinda back in 2019 too
She’s perfect for the role!
I saw Wicked with my Boyfriend on Tuesday. It was incredibly beautiful. It made him cry and he loves it. He has never seen a musical before and now he can't stop talking about Wicked😍
What a lovely comment. I'm similar to your bf in not seeing a musical before. I was looking at booking tickets at The Apollo. Could I ask does it still feel intimate, and is the sound powerful - even though there are over 2,000 people in the auditorium? Thanks
@@2icelollys1goat i went just before the pandemic, when i spent a week in England. I'm from Spain so I'm not used to theatres as big as the apollo victoria is, but i have to say i was pleasantly surprised. It did feel very special. Go see it if you have the chance, it's one of those things you NEED to do before you die, promise.
@@bethgarcia1838 What a gracious and lovely reply. Thank you so, so much.
Btw your English is most excellent!
@@StephenCarrIsBald What an awful thing to say......in a sea of warm, friendly and upbeat comments.
laura is such an underrated elphaba, i think she’s amazing
Currently visiting London for a small holiday with family. We passed the west end live event on a tour bus and just saw wicked for the first time tonight at the Apollo Victoria theatre. Absolutely brilliant and will be coming back again hopefully soon!
Laura can SING!!!!! Those riffs. 🔥
I'm excited!! I'm not from Europe but my friend Louisa has seen millions of west end shows. I can't wait until the night I see wicked on Broadway! I'll cry. It'll be the best night of my whole entire life. New York is SO close yet so far.
there’s something about 2:22, sophie standing next to laura - both of them doing their dream roles😭im emotional
Haven't seen wicked in person yet, but this performance just gave me goosebumps... I need to see this 😭
It's truly incredible!
Highly recommend it! Watched on Broadway many times. Such a great show
Do it , laura pick and Sophie are amazing
It’s absolutely incredible I’ve seen it 5 times
Saw them and the show live. Was so worth it. Gonna go again.
I saw them last night in Wicked, both are absolutely incredible!
The girl doing her lip gloss during defying gravity lol in her own world 🤣🤣
소피 에반스 배우님.. 2019년 위키드 그만두시기 직전에 봤었는데 다시 복귀하시다니..!!! 그때나 지금이나 제 최애 글린다예요... 2019년이나 지금이나 똑같이 너무 잘어울리심 🤍 코로나 종식되면 또 보러 가고 싶네요...
Laura Pick is really one of my favorite Elphaba's! 💚
Mine too along with Alice Fearn. I got to see Laura as a cover for Nikki. She’s sensational.
yes !! i feel like people don’t appreciate her enough
You might say she was a good Pick for Elphaba 😉
no one can be idina tho!!
@@franconner8505 I personally prefer Laura over Idina as Elphaba.
Ive seen this musical last Tuesday with my mummy and brother. Omg what an amazin and magical feelin i had. I cant compare it with the trash musicals we have here in Holland. Everything was so on point. The stage, the people, everything! Thankyou Wicked UK for giving me an magical feeling! ♥️
Sophie looks beautiful in that dress. And her voice is 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Yes!!! The contrast between voices makes this song.
Great comment. Both sound wonderful; and grace the stage beautifully. Oh and sorry to be vacuous but ....Laura is so good looking😯
That harmony at 3:30 - chills!
I'm not crying, you are. 💚😭
wow, love Elphaba singing Defying Gravity and loved the harmonies between Glinda and Elphaba. Amazing !! Well done girls x
Thats Villemjin Verkaik, the first german Elphaba and German Voice Actor of Elsa in Frozen 😍
@@rebeccaschneider5223 I thought the Elphaba here was Laura Pick?
@@justsimplyralph1755 it is, and she misspelled Willemijn
The best voices of the london west end live 2021
Came here as I just watched wicked today at the West End !!! Fantastic experience
Both amazing. Laura’s voice and acting are fantastic 🎉
I watched Wicked last week in London. It was absolutely stunning, every scene was amazing it gave me goosebumps!
OH WOW!!! Defying Gravity is amaaaaazingggggg!!!!!!!! clapping !!!
lovely to see the people who do the mics at WEL still haven’t learnt how to do their jobs
I adore Wicked. Amazing songs and stunning vocal performances. How much I have missed live performance and crowds?!!
Never beat these two in these roles..... They should have cast them in the new movies as well....
유투브 알고리즘이 여기까지 데려왔다...시상에나ㅠㅜ
Really great vocals. She reminds me a bit of Stephanie. The tone is clear and ringing. She makes parts her own, but doesn't unnecessarily change the music with ornamentation.
Wow!!! You are both so spectacular in your roles !!! 👏👏👏I was blessed to see Wicked on Broadway a few years ago, with Rachel Hunter, the opening Elagabalus I the West End!! What a thrill that was!! And I got to meet her afterwards , and she was so lovely and sweet!! Well you both are magnificent on TH-cam, that I can only imagine what it must have been like to see you perform in person!!! 👏👏👍😊God’s blessings to you and thank you for the joy you bring into our world with your beautiful singing!! 💕💕💕👏👏💕
Omg these are the guys I’m going to see
oh yes Laura
She’s incredible
Brilliant that Sophie is back!
위키드 어여 돌아와.. 기다릴게.....ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
Gorgeous ladies, gorgeous performace
Don’t mind me just cried for a full 8 minutes 💚
My favourite Wicked song 💚 see you on Halloween!
They’re so amazing!!! 🤩🤩❤️❤️
Slight mic hiccup at start of defying gravity
Oops 🙊
Anyway, wicked is another one of my all time favourite musicals and will get to see it again next month 💚
I’m obsessed with 6:41
i Love wicked
CAN WE TALK ABOUT THERE EYESSS!!!
와..진짜 현장에서 보고싶다...ㅠㅠ💚💚👍👍
Laura is such a perfect Elphaba 🥲💚
Saw Wicked yesterday, highly recommend it. Twas brilliant
Glinda holding a microphone. Rare.
I just saw wicked on west end yesterday I loved it!
Love Sophie. Welsh of the west end
ahhh my heart is full!
I will never forget the moment seeing beautiful Sophie Evans as Glinda in the very front seat
thank you!👏👏👏👏👏💐💐💐
Chills 🥰👏🏻
They were my first Elphaba and Glinda🥺
Stunning performances! 🤩💚
Wicked is my all time fave musical
Laura Pick is literally the British version of another fellow "Elphaba" herself Donna Vivino!!!
Love Sophie when she was on over the rainbow
And now she’s the good witch
I couldn't hear when she sang, "Something has changed within me." Is that just me? Was her mic not on?
No, someone forgot something
west end live have a problem with the mics every year i swear
Nicee very good!!!
Wonderful ♥
Laura and Sophie will always be my Glinda & Elphaba
OOOHHH!!! Wow! 💚
Is West End Live their version of Stars in the Alley or Broadway in Bryant Park? I love it!
yeah pretty much Broadway in Bryant Park!
Is there a reason they don’t list the performers singing the song? Why is it on the comment section to let everyone know?
Who are the actresses? They should be credited here.
Laura pick and Sophie Evans
Beautiful 😊
Awesome 😍
I’m going tomorrow
laura pick best elphaba💚
ah the infamous terrible sound of the WEL recordings....
There are clips posted from the audience that have better sound quality than this.
i’m surprised they haven’t fixed it by now😭😭 literally every single year it’s the same 😭
💚💚💚
Sophie evans is the only person who can do glinda
Edit.. she is my favourite.
Wait,, there is no covid anymore?? Kindly explain
shhhhh
It’s called vaccinations hun.
Splendid performance as always but wait, did they change some of the lyrics of Defying Gravity?
It's the solo version of the song so they use a bit of wizard and I . Its version the use for events like this and tv when elphaba is often on her own.
@@iamcorinward I see, I've been watching many Defying Gravity solo performances but I just notice it. I guess I'm not paying attention HAHA Thank you ♥️
I thought she just forgot the lyrics!
@@gordongraham7 forgot the lyrics and started sing a whole different song lol 😆
💚💚💚💚
I know the wigs are probably used and reused for other casts BUT you really should cut back the lace fronts on both wigs. The make up doesnt cover the lace well enough.
it’s probably not noticeable in a theatre
out of curiosity i went to checked out some BTS of the broadway wigs, and the lace looks long there too. when they're properly set and there's not a camera inches away from the actresses faces, the wigs look a lot better!
iirc the reason they do not remove the lace in musicals is to make sure the wig is more secure on the head, along with hair pins etc since the performers need to move around a lot. Also, unless you're in the first rows of a theatre it really isn't as noticeable as in these videos
the lace isn’t cut off because you can’t notice it when you’re watching it in a theatre and it’s far more secure. these wigs aren’t meant for close up camera work
Yeah; I’ve worked in theatre for many years and we Never had Lace fronts, we were never that important lol so I was thinking when you’re actually in a HUGE musical that builds around you’re specifications you’d think they’d fit it perfectly to your head and cut off the lace so you can express more and wrinkle your forehead for more expression! I dunno! It’s like getting your own brand new car and never taking the plastic off!
💚💚💚💚💚
좋아 했던 여자애가 위키드 광팬이라 빅토리아 시어터에서 한 5번 보여줬는데 지랄하구 결국 다른 넘한테 시집 감 ... ㅇ.ㅇ
I just noticed that Elphaba in the poster has red lips but IRL she has black lips
Where is Laura’s hat
Today 18/12/21 was second time my daughter arranged child care. Cost £8 to park at the railway Station £36 for the train and can’t remember the cost of the show. Plus £20 supper snd £8 for the program and even drinks in the bar. Are you telling me the production only knew to cancelled just as people were walking into their seats?? I understand if people have Covid or isolating but surely they must of known earlier in the day? She has been emailed regarding rebooking but she no longer wants to go for a third time which I don’t blame her I just hope they refund her not only the ticket cost but her program and train fares too?
Slay
I was very surprised that the small number of people put on masks
Well it’s not legally mandatory in the U.K. anymore as most adults are double jabbed :( #corruptgov
Most people in the UK wear masks anymore if they have been jabbed or just don’t care about them anymore.
@@ajc252Yes! :)
The UK has one of the worst governments in the world. That's why :( Double-jabbed doesn't mean safe.
@@ajc252 why would it be a legal requirement again when it NEVER has been a legal requirement a mandate isn’t a law
...enuf said
I really wish they'd kept Glinda onstage for Defying Gravity. The changed lyrics to accommodate it as a solo didn't work and were so unnecessary, since Sophie was there anyway for For Good. She had been singing three minutes ago; she couldn't stick around long enough to fill in a few lines in one more song?
I admit that's a quibble, though -- the performances were amazing, both of them.
Whoever did Elphaba’s wig needs to be fired.
What is wrong with it? And what would firing them accomplish?
I couldn't stop looking at it thinking, why is that lace not cut!? X
@@sophielambie3036 I noticed thst with glindas but not elphabas
@@attention_sloth4920 Glinda's is worse for lace definitely but I didn't notice it as much. The green makeup on Elphaba just made it way more obvious.
@@sophielambie3036 I didn't even notice it at all on elphabas hahs
Why does one sound like Mary Poppins…
Has Elphaba a new wig?
