A Wicked Halloween

Happy Halloween! And for Wicked fans it is a very happy time indeed, as Wicked stars Eden Espinosa and Megan Hilty are both returning to the musical in LA. The actresses are going to be bringing the LA show to it’s close on January 11, 2009. Having Espinosa and Hilty back in Wicked is a great way to round-up the show’s incredible run, especially as they are the actresses who originated the roles of Elphaba and Glinda in LA.

Espinosa and Hilty will be playing alongside Carol Kane as Madame Morrible, David Garrison as the Wizard, Derrick Williams as Fiyero, David Devries as Dr. Dillamond, Eddy Rioseco as Boq and Briana Yacavone as Nessarose.

Since their initial run in LA’s production of Wicked the two actresses have gone on to be very successful in their careers. Espinosa has been seen on the Broadway stage as Elphaba, played Maureen in the final cast of Broadway’s Rent, and in the reprise staging of Flora, the Red Menace. Hilty has recently starred in the out-of-town engagement of 9 to 5. She  has also been seen in the musical Cafe Puttanesca, and Suds.
