    This performance is the perfect example of someone who is not only great at what they do but someone who has studied the craft. Julia is Elphaba throughout this whole performance, her vocals aren't pop or riffy, they're unique and very classically musical theatre. Stunning. Period.

    what i love about this performance is that even though she doesn't do anything crazy vocally like a lot of elphaba's do on their last show, she really amps up her already immaculate acting. it's almost like she did the acting equivalent of adding a ton of crazy riffs. the greatest elphaba in my opinion.

    What a fantastic performance. Her “as someone told me lately” with the head nod is definitely something special. Her “take a message back from meeee” Is also brilliant and refreshing. What an excellent performer.

    THE ABSOLUTE SHAME ON THIS AUDIENCE FOR NOT GIVING HER FINAL FLIGHT APPLAUSE. Every time I watch this it pisses me off. She was one the best actresses to ever play this role. People might not like her vibrato, but COME ON!! She delivered ten fold. In every aspect. And acted circles around just about anyone who played this role. (even my favorites). She deserved a standing ovation on this flight and.... Crickets. Shame on this audience.

    • @chrisjacobs7417
      @chrisjacobs7417 Před 2 lety +13

      I love hearing people compliment her acting. That's what made her such an inspiring choice. She didn't portray elphaba, se was Elphaba. It was the role she was born to play. Every choice she made added to the character. Just amazing.

      @dragonpaulz_ Před 2 lety +2

      Yea I love allie mauzeys energy and vocal prowess, but it makes it really hard to like glinda when she is so ditzy and shallow to the point of frustration. Kendra, Katie rose clarke, and Kristen Chenoweth all play more serious and nuanced glindas, and it makes the role more believable

  • @elphbwckd212
    @elphbwckd212 Před 2 lety +14

    What a perfect pair. I never got SJB and Kendra together. I thought S was so big and bold and Kendra way too grounded, and just not right. Julia was Kendra's partner. They both had such a grounded and 'real' take on these characters. I did not like Kendra as Glinda till I saw her (live) with Julia. Then her Glinda made sense. These two were the perfect pair and two of my favorites of all time

    • @oneandonlyprecarious
