Hide your peanut butter, because a certain former vlogger is returning to her bubble. Kara Lindsay will reprise her performance as Glinda in the Broadway company of Wicked, stepping in for Carrie St. Louis at the Gershwin Theatre. Lindsay will begin performances on November 1—the same day Sheryl Lee Ralph takes over for Judy Kaye as Madame Morrible.
Lindsay first rode Glinda’s bubble on tour before assuming the role on Broadway in December 2014. She appeared in the original cast of Broadway’s Newsies as Katharine and took home a Broadway.com Audience Choice Award alongside her co-star Jeremy Jordan. Earlier this year, Lindsay took on the title role in Mary Poppins at North Carolina Theatre.
In addition to St. Louis and Kaye, the current cast of Wicked includes Jennifer DiNoia as Elphaba, Michael Campayno as Fiyero, Peter Scolari as the Wizard, Michael Genet as Doctor Dillamond, Zachary Noah Piser as Boq and Dawn E. Cantwell as Nessarose.
