After Willemijin's leaves Wicked, after her 15 week run, who willl replace her?

[dyland]

Would It be Lindsay Mendez? I know she has alot of concerts this Winter, so the spring, she'll be open to play Elphaba.

[Jordan Catalano]

Maybe she will, Quiche2. Maybe she will.

[Kelly2]

Isn't Lindsay Mendez attached to FLY? That's scheduled to run July/August in Dallas, if she continues on with the show (she did the workshop last week), then she would be unavailable.

The question is: who will replace dyland as the new screenname?

Quiche69

I thought someone a,ready said they talked to Lindsay after a concert and she confirmed she was coming into the show?

[Kelly2]

I'm not saying I know for sure, I'm just pointing out that she is attached to FLY and as far as I know, many members of the workshop cast will be doing the production in Dallas. I do not know if she is one of them.

Lindsay Mendez is indeed joining WICKED after Willemijn Verkaik finishes her run in May.

As others have speculated, Mendez's busy concert schedule and a couple other projects she's committed to made it impossible for her to go into the show any sooner. While she did just do the workshop of FLY, it's my understanding that the team was already aware she was unavailable for the full production (they'll have to cast a lot more local actors in Dallas anyway.)

[Kelly2]

That's very sad, as she was absolutely mind-bogglingly good in the workshop. But good for her, she'll sing the hell out of it.

somethingwicked- I would check your sources first. Nothing is set in stone yet, unless something has changed over the past 2 weeks.

What I was told came from a reliable source as of a few days ago.
