More Wicked Video

Here's one I didn't find out about until recently: "No Good Deed" performed on Martha Stewart's show last Halloween. Interesting camera work. Let's take a look...



The interesting part is that that's not Idina Menzel. It's Shoshana Bean, who was Idina's understudy and successor on Broadway. It seems that Shoshana was actually the first choice to play Elphaba in the initial run, but she had no Broadway experience at the time. Idina got the part thanks, in large part, to the experience and following she had already gotten through Rent.

By the way, Shoshana was also not feeling too well the day that video was made. Dang, she's good.
