Mary Kate Morrissey - Defying Gravity - 6.04.23

I have no words for how amazing MK is.
I also have no words for people who get up to go to the bathroom during Defying Gravity.

Her "look to the Western sky!" clears my skin, waters my crops, and cures my diseases every time.

[@tannermulkay6332]

Those preflight lines are what I’ll hear as I’m going to Heaven

[@godise96]

She said “I’m the next elphaba lead” with her full chest!!

[@AlexHurleyMusic]

The open vowel placement on "How I am DeFYing gravity" is so beautiful 😍

[@MichaelLaRocca3]

Just wonderful. Whoever got up must have had to pee very badly. An usher should have not allowed them to go back to their seat until the end of Act I. My 65th Birthday was on June 4th. Thank you for a great Birthday gift.

[@JerryFinkleberry]

SOOO HAPPY SHE GOT PROMOTED TO PRINCIPAL ELPHABA

[@PhillyDove]

The people who went to the bathroom during this, when intermission is like 2 minutes away, should be embarrassed and ashamed.

[@Tornandstuff]

The magic and energy she brings to this company, wow wow WOW A

[@robbie8708]

Daaaaamn. Just gets better and better

[@jj24james70]

The fact that this is the second video of someone using the restroom while MKM was performing this song is crazy

[@AbulandeskaCaldapest]

I'd rather shit myself before missing this.

[@Scandisk10]

@@AbulandeskaCaldapest I honestly fear this happening every time I see the show. I often see it by myself and i get weary if I’m next to a small child lol.

[@tannermulkay6332]

Is there a time stamp for this? I’m trying to find it and strugglinggggg

[@AbulandeskaCaldapest]

@@tannermulkay6332 They leave for the bathroom at around 5:30 and then come back right as she's going up at around 8:55, which is why the video goes all shaky.

[@ddd8170]

@@AbulandeskaCaldapest I thought I saw someone get up at 9:07 too?!

[@impsky7786]

And that…ladies and gentleman…is why MK absolutely defines the role. So many good leads, but Mary Kate’s performance was spot-on for this performance. Not one note out of place.

[@PhantomOperaWickedTheaterPhan]

This is AMAZING! Thanks so much for uploading!

[@theblakesheep]

Man, this is basically perfect.

[@la24828]

mk’s flying section is so POWERFUL woah

[@johnmarkfrederick8245]

Elphaba has escaped from getting captured by the Guards and sings Defying gravity

[@johnmarkfrederick8245]

Defying gravity is really great song for the hero

[@johnmarkfrederick8245]

Elphaba is giving the speech as a Leader

[@mithramusic5909]

I love this commentary!

[@kevingirardbender]

This is unREAL

[@jakegadomski2066]

She sounds better than ever!

Did someone go to the bathroom at the beginning of Defying Gravity?!?! 🥴
Immediately to jail.

[@AbulandeskaCaldapest]

Yes, I reported them to the police and I believe they are serving time in pris-sonnnnn

[@broadwaymike92]

Just scored tickets to Mary Kate's first night as the next FULLTIME BROADWAY ELPHABA on 3/5!!!!

[@whodatninja439]

nothing but respect for my favorite elphaba (who should be the lead)

[@JerryFinkleberry]

Well congrats because she’s replacing Alyssa!

[@la24828]

WHO is this morrible omg 😍

[@abbiegclark]

She’s unbelievable

[@atolee704]

Daaaaaamn...

[@justken321]

Ok MK ATE ----but is someone going to the bathroom during Defying Gravity?? tf?? haha

[@sonitaberoog5233]

Thanks Abulandeska Caldapest

[@ddd8170]

Wait. Are you telling me that was someone GETTING UP TO PEE just as she ascended???

[@sarahd362]

I would have full blown shit myself rather than miss this part.

[@johnmarkfrederick8245]

🤮🤮😷

[@JamesDeckelman]

I know,right 😮?!?!?!

[@atolee704]

These vocals are top notch, but some of her timing choices really left something to be desired for me. She tends to cut people off, including herself. It starts from the very beginning when she says "spies?" And throughout the entire non-flying section with Glinda, abruptly cutting her off anytime she has a sung or spoken line.
It's not that it's "wrong," it just takes away a little bit, whenever if she would just milk it a little more and really let the dialogue ring or give it a second for emotion of the moment to be felt, I feel that would really add a "wow" factor to her performance.

[@elphabathroppyourterribleness]

do you have the motion of the ocean or the sun in the sky

[@Robloxfanclub-fk3mf]

wicked witch is going to be having a headache soon

[@sonitaberoog5233]

Abulandeska Caldpest Can You Upload Wicked For Good and Melting Please

[@dericprieskorn]

Why did Morrible get a new costume for her Emerald City dress? Missing the lime green gold beaded gown. Noticed she’s had the green Shiz dress for sometime now.

[@karllove6042]

I think this one is better than the previous one

[@justinleighduhon5710]

If it were me I STRONGLY vote original dress

[@Robloxfanclub-fk3mf]

Wicked witch is mad because she have a bad day

[@tannav5]

Who’s playing Glinda here?

[@AbulandeskaCaldapest]

McKenzie Kurtz

[@blu3kawaii]

Was Madame Morrible having a bad day?

[@hunterthuiet8334]
