Rachel Tucker (Elphaba), Sarah Earnshaw (s/b Glinda), Lee Mead (Fiyero),
Julie Legrand (Madame Morrible), Julian Forsyth (u/s The Wizard), Cassandra Compton (Nessarose),
Danny Mac (u/s Boq), Gareth Chart (u/s Dr. Dillamond)
Missing „One short day“
The camera is put down a few times, but just for seconds.
Due to the zooming the video is a bit shaky. But especially during "Popular" the zooming is great.
