From what I've read, there was apparently too much dialogue that couldn't be cut and they were worried it would give away too much of the story. Which is a shame, because both the acting and the vocals are just too damn good!
Okay, so I'm not crazy! I saw the at back in line 2007, bought the cast recording in 2009 and it wasn't on there so I assumed I imagined it but also knew I *absolutely didnt.* So glad I found this finally
She's been doing this since she was around 11 as "Deedee Lynn Magno" on the new MMC with Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Xtina, and Ryan Gossling! 🥰 She's WONDERFUL onstage!
There is so much about this performance that is perfect. The shady delayed “Madam.” Deedee basically rolling her ankles with every step like the slippers are controlling her steps and she has to balance herself, Carmen’s look of exasperation when Nessa fucks up. And Deedee is the only Nessa I’ve seen who’s actually screamed in horror when seeing Boq transformed. That desperate “It was ELPHABA” was everything. Just a perfect scene.
Deedee is incredible. I've seen many good Nessa's that are amazing, but Deedee brings this character to another level and makes every one of her short scenes stand out.
I wish that they’d re-record this song with the OBC; I’m certain all of them (Michelle, Idina, and Chris) all still have the ability to perform the number, and it would have been such a great 20th anniversary surprise!
Me either!! I can't wait to hear Marissa Bode's version!! She was pretty good hearing her sing her verses in Dancing Through Life, I can't wait to hear her.
6:27 is just so heartbreaking and beautiful. Her delivery is gorgeous, it's such a moving and humanizing moment for the character and the lyrical and melodic ties to various other songs in the show are so fantastic. I'm really glad they added it in the adaption, and Deedee's performance here is wonderful. It's a huge shame there isn't a professional recording (I guess they had to make room for March of the Witch Hunters lmao)
I’ve gone down a black hole of watching every Nessa performance I can find. Deedee is the best. Feels the most real from her. And the best reaction to seeing baq as Tinman. Seriously she deserves some awards
I just noticed…when Boq was about to confess to Nessa in Dancing Through Life: Nessa: It’s because I’m in this chair, and you felt sorry for me. *Well, isn’t that right?* Boq: No, no… And now in this scene: Boq: That ball that’s being staged announcing Glinda is engaged to Fiyero. Nessa: Glinda? Boq: *Yes Nessa, that’s right* Took him until now to give an honest response to her original question.
Wow, I remember DeeDee when she was on the Mickey Mouse Club and a member of The Party, alongside her fellow Mousketeers, including the late great Tiffani Hale (RIP 😢). It's great to see her career coming to full fruition and getting the praise and accolades that she earned and deserved.
I want it on the soundtrack so bad it’s not even a spoiler to me anymore. I think there are other spoilers in the soundtrack as well, so why not add this one too?
I think the spoilers were one reason for omitting it. The other reason being that they would've had to remove a lot of dialogue to make it suitable for an album. But then if you cut out most of the dialogue, you have a song that doesn't really flow or make sense. It has so many different sections musically. It's more like several small songs, rather than one. "all of my life I've depended on you...", the spell casting, "lost your heart, well we'll see about that...", "save him please...". They're each fairly isolated pieces of musc within a bigger scene.
Part 2 Wicked shouldn’t not be a whole year away…. I loath the fact that everyone believed elphaba was really evil and wicked and really was standing up for Rights and Equal Opportunity
What a little liar... "It was Elphaba". Nope, it was you. It was you who didn't see he wasn't in love and decided to keep lying to yourself and then tried a spell to force him to be with you regardless of his wishes. And it was also the lying little bastard who weren't Munchkin enough to tell you he wasn't in love. Elphaba has nothing to do with all this.
Unfortunately, I lost it on my old computer, so now I just have these clips that I'd uploaded. You can probably find it floating around out there somewhere though. It's from December 12th, 2007 in St. Louis, Missouri.
@@Palpatine4Senate In the book by L Frank Balum, he was once a human named Nick Chopper who fell in love with a munchkin girl. But her mother disproved of their marriage and made a deal with the Wicked Witch of the East and bewitched his axe and every time he missed all of his ace would cut off his body parts.
Why does Nessarose call herself the Wicked Witch of the East? Is it because her sister is called the Wicked Witch of the West so she just calls herself the Wicked Witch of the East
Great acting, but the bad thing about this script is that Boq responds so angry in the first time and then, when he sees Nessa can walk, holds her hand, as if all her oppression never happened
I mean…this whole script is infamous for being on the subpar end. It’s not the worst, but it’s no artistic triumph either. In fact, the moments in the film that are taken straight from the stage are made even more clunky by being on film. But I’m just happy the film wasn’t fumbled in any major way. It’s a solid stage to screen translation and I’m happy with it 🥰
how could they not put this song on the cast recording...
It still pisses me off to this day that they didn’t do it, the closest to a clear recording with the original cast is them workshopping the song
From what I've read, there was apparently too much dialogue that couldn't be cut and they were worried it would give away too much of the story. Which is a shame, because both the acting and the vocals are just too damn good!
Couldn’t agree more, this is like top 3 songs in the show for me
I feel like the movie might be our best bet of getting a definitive recording, so fingers crossed that cast does this song justice
Okay, so I'm not crazy! I saw the at back in line 2007, bought the cast recording in 2009 and it wasn't on there so I assumed I imagined it but also knew I *absolutely didnt.* So glad I found this finally
she was here TO ACT
She SERVED for real
SHE FEASTED THAT NESSA ROLE UP! 😍😍😍
She's been doing this since she was around 11 as "Deedee Lynn Magno" on the new MMC with Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Xtina, and Ryan Gossling! 🥰 She's WONDERFUL onstage!
Holy geez, one of the best acted Nessaroses I have ever seen

She is so talented here. I discovered her recently because of Steven Universe where she voiced Pearl.
oh ur so me
@@rvelvetts7573 I didn't know she was in Wicked
wait that’s so dope
Deedee is incredible. I've seen many good Nessa's that are amazing, but Deedee brings this character to another level and makes every one of her short scenes stand out.
indeed sheis, I got a kiss on my cheek at the stag door closing night in Sam Francisco
Carmen's "I can't with this B..." look after Nessa casts the spell is priceless. "I'm so done with you right now, you impulsive, impudent child."
I can’t get enough of 6:07 the expression on Elphie’s face kills me 😂 like ‘f*cling really, guess who is getting blamed for this”
7:56 How have I only just realised that she’s probably trying to say “I still love you”?
No entendí ¿A qué te refieres?
@@alfonsohernandez8035El comentario quería decir que en ese momento Nessarosa quería dicer “todavía te amo”
I can't unhear Pearl singing this
1:14 you can hear the little melody that they play in the opening and in the finale oh my gosh
I wish that they’d re-record this song with the OBC; I’m certain all of them (Michelle, Idina, and Chris) all still have the ability to perform the number, and it would have been such a great 20th anniversary surprise!
OMG WHAT A PERFECT CASTING! I can hear Pearl casting the spell on Greg OMG
“THE WICKED WITCH OOOFFFF THE EAAAAAST!” never fails to give me chills. Wow!
1:03 "he'll do it for you" DO IT FOR HEEEERRRRR
I can't wait for this scene in the films
Me either!! I can't wait to hear Marissa Bode's version!! She was pretty good hearing her sing her verses in Dancing Through Life, I can't wait to hear her.
I just realized as a big Steven universe fan dee dee mango gall is pearl from Steven universe I love both these things 😭😭😭

Blown away by DeeDee’s acting here. She is on another level.
when I was little DeeDee was Nessarose now she's my Pear from SU I love her so much seriously one of the best

She has such a clear tone!
She ATE that up!
I remember seeing Deedee and she was just... so so good.
I guess you can say, she was Wickedly good 😌
Ah this was at the Fox in St. Louis. I saw it there the next night with this cast! Was amazing in person! I haven’t seen it since unfortunately.
Nothing can top this I fear
Deedee is a phenomenal Nessa. Might be my favorite ❤️🤍🖤
I always forget deedee was in Wicked
Not only is the singing amazing but the acting is perfection here! Deedee really put her heart and soul into this performance
SHE’S THE BEST
She’s amazing
Literally no words. Perfection.
My heart, it’s shrinking…
That is the best Nessa I have ever seen!
DeeDee is amazing!)
Wow, I remember DeeDee when she was on the Mickey Mouse Club and a member of The Party, alongside her fellow Mousketeers, including the late great Tiffani Hale (RIP 😢). It's great to see her career coming to full fruition and getting the praise and accolades that she earned and deserved.
wow they are SO good!!!
I hope they have a place for DeeDee in Wicked Part II
oh my gyatt pearl is that you
Not even slightly a nessarose fan but this song is always one of the best vocally performed from the show
Whoa. That was amazing.
She’s the best I’ve ever seen
oh my gosh is that deedee aka pearl voice
YESSSS PEARRLLLLLLL
Brava, Dee Dee, Brava. 💐👏🏽
first! one of my favourite nessa’s 😍
Pearl from Steven Universe!!!!!
And Sardonyx was an Elphaba 😍
Im always interested in nessa's character. And how she's became also a wicked witch of the East
THAT WAS DEEDEE OMG
Wow. She's incredible, Deedee is just such an amazing actress. Hearing her here is so amazing.
She’s the first Nessa I saw live !
I knew it’s over ISNT it sounded Broadway ish
I had no idea a mousketter played Nessarose! Groovy!!
i was wondering who nessa was and i realized shes the voice actor of pearl from steven universe! no wonder shes so good!
LOVE NESSA SHE DESERVES SOO MUCH BETTER THO
NO WAY I DIDNT KNOW SHE WAS IN WICKED?
How was Dee Dee not elphaba?
Right?! Her voice is just perfect for the role
Pearl’s life after leaving the Crystal Gems took a turn for the worse.
Nessarose: somethings coming it's a house, wearing under in this blouse, that I'm about to die
Shame it was never included on the soundtrack :( "The wicked witch of the east............."
I want it on the soundtrack so bad it’s not even a spoiler to me anymore. I think there are other spoilers in the soundtrack as well, so why not add this one too?
1:59 ❤
Pearl!!!
DeeDee is the best Nessarose
I am surprised that this was DeeDee in this production of Wicked, seven years before Steven Universe, before she played Pearl.
Pearl was so mean with Bik
DEEDEE?!?!?!?!? HELLO!?!!?!?! Idk why I’m surprised of course it’s deedee…
This better be in part 2!
It should be.
It will be
Of course it will be
I heard this was never on the soundtrack because it was such a huge spoiler. Is that true?
I think the spoilers were one reason for omitting it. The other reason being that they would've had to remove a lot of dialogue to make it suitable for an album.

can we talk about how during the wicked witch of the east she does the hands from the wizard and i
Elphaba tries to fix what she had done and (of course, as always) she is the one to get all the blame. Honestlly, who's the true wicked one here?
Boq is right about himself who did not deserve to be tin man that becomes of boq
Pearl???
YAYAYAYAYAYAYA
Part 2 Wicked shouldn’t not be a whole year away…. I loath the fact that everyone believed elphaba was really evil and wicked and really was standing up for Rights and Equal Opportunity

Do you have this casts full show?

@@CaseyBlizzard Awww...Thank you so much!
PEARL :D
Those lines are so over the top. Makes the character of Nessa seem like a comedy relief instead of dramatic tragedy story.
PEARL?!
I’m I the only one who imagines pearl as nessa
Nope
They reinstated "to Fiyero"??
Do you have the whole show?
I much prefer the Tin Woodsman’s book cannon backstory.
ok?

All I hear is pearl-
Why does Nessarose call herself the Wicked Witch of the East? Is it because her sister is called the Wicked Witch of the West so she just calls herself the Wicked Witch of the East
On the map of Oz, Munchkinland is in the east.
@ I knew that
She has been a tyrant as the governor of Munchkinland and is aware of it. Wicked in her own right.
@@CaseyBlizzardand it makes sense in a connection to the book. Which itself is a prequel to the Wizard of Oz book
