    What I'm wondering, is how they get Boq into the Tin Man outfit so quickly? Like I know his outfit is already grey, but they have to make his hair and face grey in like 20 seconds.

    • @evanduggins4641
      @evanduggins4641 6 ปีที่แล้ว +27

      they have an actor in the makeup in the left side of the wardrobe so when elphaba wheels boq around, they switch places and the lines are lip synced by the tin man character for the scene

    • @lewijenkins5293
      @lewijenkins5293 5 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Another actor already has the make up on and switches with the real boq then after in the finale the real boq would come out

    It's cool that Robin de Jesus was Boq and that Mandy Gonzalez was Elphaba because they were also in "In the Heights" together: Mandy Gonzalez was Nina and he was Sonny. I like how at 12:00, Madame Morrible is dancing (don't know the actress's name).

    Jonah,
    When I first watched this yesterday I couldn’t get over how much you look like Ben Platt only to do some research and realize he is your brother and your Dad is the film and stage producer Marc Platt. What an amazing and talented family you have. You are a very talented guy. I saw WICKED a week after Idina had won the Tony at the Gershwin. Literally it was the 7pm Sunday performance and the day of the Puerto Rican Parade. Kristen Chenoweth, Norbert Leo Butz and Joel Grey were all out sick. And Idina was taken out of the show at intermission due to illness and was replaced by Eden Espinoza . It was definitely a strange performance. I later saw the show in Los Angeles with Eden and Megan Hilty and it was unbelievable. They both made the show uniquely their own. A friend of mine Carole Shelley was the only original cast member that actually made it through the New York performance that night. I think they all had gotten ill at some Thai restaurant in the Village, but don’t quote me cause I’m not sure. God bless and belated Happy Birthday! Ethan Nielson
    P. S. I was an actor in L.A. for many years and came to realize that in losing the role of Conrad Jarrett in the film ORDINARY PEOPLE my career wasn’t going to go as planned. But I suppose there are unforeseen reasons for everything.
