She’s brilliant. Perfect for the role. Pure strong vocals, youthful but almost very mature appearance. She’s gonna grow into being one of the strongest elphaba’s yet

[Matt_Hattr]

I hope she plays Elphaba for several years! I'd love to see her perform, but it won't be anytime soon :(

Almost every Elphaba I’ve seen has been someone’s favorite. Hope that doesn’t come as an insult because it’s definitely not! It’s a high compliment! Every person I’ve watched playing this role has been AMAZING. None of them are just phoning it in or reading lines. They put their heart and soul into this character!
