everyone’s talking about how lauren reminds them of the 2007-2010 elphies and i just wanna talk about how the camerawork and quality here is so so SO reminiscent of bootlegs from that era too like the zoom in during „and if i’m flying solo“ and zoom out during „no wizard that there is or was“
This is so specific and niche that the ones who get it get it?💚
You worded this so perfectly
The nostalgia is real. So nice to see that camerawork again ❤️
looks like that one Julia boot
idina's opening night performance in london comes to mind
I am BLOWN AWAY. Damn. A top tier elphaba FOR SURE.
You’d think she’s been playing this role for years, she’s INSANELY good. Also getting Chelsea Emma Franko vibes!
The best Elphaba I have ever heard, and the best acted. No one will ever come close; just outstanding. Going to be in New York in July 2025. GOD, I really hope she will be on Broadway. I’m sure she will be by then!!!!
I feel like we're back in the golden age of Wicked - she sounds like Marcie and Julia and this footage is giving closeups on a real camera. LOVE IT.
Lauren Samuels has come a long way!!! Been a fan since the BBC OVER THE RAINBOW following her West End journey and now she's making her way internationally for American Audiences!!!!
Me too!!! So proud of her
and me ❤
I'm so glad they are giving new girls the chance to play these roles on tour and broadway instead of recycling some of the same women who have played the role for a decade or longer ❤❤❤
AAAAAAA💀💀💀 THIS
I understand Wicked want the show to have as long of a run as possible before closing but I think sometimes they don't realise that recycling old Elphaba standbys/understudies and bumping them up to lead isn't the be all and end all of how Wicked survives as a show. Wicked needs fresh faces to keep it going such as Hannah Corneau, Lindsay Pearce, Liza DeGuzman and Lauren Samuels. People staring out in the role for the very first time and exploring new depths to Elphaba that aren't just inspired by previous Elphaba's.
Been a fan of Lauren's since the BBC show and only found out today that she's in the American Tour - you lucky people!! she's fantastic
Just saw her tonight. It’s so much better in person I can’t even explain. She. Is. Phenomenal.
I was in Toronto last night and all I can say is WOW. I was literally moved to tears. Beautiful vocals, brilliant cast
👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Was in tears when Lauren was sing Defying Gravity yesterday at Princess of Wales Theater for Wicked also honor have seen her as my first Elphaba I've seen on stage also Austin be my first Glinda.
It’s the “Loooooooook to the western sky!l for me. 💚💚💚💚
Lauren is giving Jackie Burns eyes and I’m so here for it. Brilliant acting and voice!
I really like this. I like that the stakes feel high in the scene, and I like that she is bringing a lot of energy and witchiness when she flies. This will be a great cast.
She sounds absolutely incredible
Lol
OH MY GOD! This is so impressive! The whole performance is exciting, her acting great and her voice powerful! The battle cry so effective! I LOVED HER!
omg i wasn’t expecting such a clear video to come out so soon! she’s incredible, her voice is so powerful
I have loved Lauren since she was on Over the Rainbow in the UK years ago and she's just phenomenal, this made me emotional! She absolutely smashes this amazing vocals and acting on point all through!
wow! jawdropping. Hope she will make her broadway debut as Elphaba too.
Bless whoever gave us this
She is so incredibly good??? And so new to the cast
Wow. She is PHENOMENAL! Very “old school” Elphaba, in the best way! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
When the time of the lift, music and actors are all on point mmmm chefs kiss 😁💚🖤💚🖤💚
Can’t wait till this comes to Toronto!!! Love Lauren! ❤
She looks a little like Julia Murney, I won’t lie. I’m living for her!!
Yes yes yes! Amen to this she fully does
Glad I’m not the only one who thinks this ^
@@eddieking4621 omg sameee!! And the wizard and I video too, I can totally see it
I thought the same.
Between that and her sounding like Marcie and other golden age Elphies - she is just beautiful
What a great performance 😍 The voice, the acting… ✨😍 phenomenal. 💚
She is legendary. ❤❤❤
“I carrrrrnt want it” (2.00) sublime - her dedication to this part of the script where Elphaba is so determined and absolute in her decision is everything - I’m so excited about her journey x 💚
Broadway and West End NEXT!!!!
I"ll be see her in Toronto in June and July also Lauren and Austin is amazing as well.
Brilliant! Amazing!!! Lauren’s voice is stunning!!! Can’t wait to see it live!!!
OMG SHE'S AMAAAAZING
I saw this production over Mother's Day weekend and it was spectacular! This was one of my favorite performances. Thank you for posting it!
That “kiss me goodbye” 😮
In love with this! If you have no good deed I’d LOVE to see it! Thanks for sharing
Such a great voice and her acting is incredible . Love the video ❤
so excited to see her in december!!! such a strong performance already!
YES!
Do you have no good deed and no one mourns the wicked
Omg Lauren is stellar!!! ❤ And the close ups of this video, are you the legendary bootlegger SunsetBlvd79? 😂
THIS WITCH! She is amazing!
Agreed and can't to see Lauren and the cast on July 21st in Toronto.
Love her tone! I hear some Marcie Dodd and Julia Murney.
Holy shit ❤
Amazing. Just superb ❤
Wow. I hope she comes to back to the UK to play it!
Thank you thank you thank you
Brand new wicked trailer out today and then this comes out aswell ❤️❤️
Might see her in Winter and Wicked for their first time! 😊
Oh they are good!!! I really needed this to cleanse my pallet after watching the trailer. Can't wait to see them at the Pantages in Los Angeles!!!
7:15 you can see on the broom there’s a hook for the invisible wire used to fly the broom in… something I’ve always wondered/wanted to see, how they attach/detach the wire to the broom so smoothly
I believe it’s a semi-strong magnet
I came here because i saw DEFINING gravity
7:09 her eyes
tea!
❤
6:40 I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS !!
finally someone who actually cares about what they're recording, didn't see a bootleg so well-recorded in ages
Do you have For Good? 💚
Wicked back london show show footage sound
bruhhh
Literally jstarz, secretly defying combined filming skills, you cannot convince me that you are not those 2
I wonder what she would sound like in a British accent
She sounds like Shona white a bit
Visually she’s giving me Lisa Brescia
Exactly what I thought with a hint of Julia Murney and Teal Wicks ❤😊
Is it just me or is here British accent coming though on certain words?! Not saying that to throw shade. I love her
Just you
Just you. I hear not even a hint of an accent coming through.
just saw her tonight and had no idea she was british till after the show. she did spectacular
I can hear it 💯 on the first lines when she says: this must be the attic, we have to barricade the door. And on the first few lines of the song. So much so I first thought this was the west end production. But then the accent disappeared for the most part lol. But shes so good I don’t mind at all
