Important words from former Glinda Savannah Stevenson on mental health in theatre.

It’s easy to forget that performers are human, and that being bombarded with opinions and constantly compared to your predecessors, can be difficult to manage.

The world's greatest riffer, Alice Fearn, the first British Elphaba to have FIVE distinct Fiyero riffs 💚 https://t.co/JOGUpHHnCi

This is why I adore theatre, different opinions on one character, diverse portrayals, played by some of the most inspirational and empowering women, paving the way for others to slay 💫 https://t.co/Z9idqmhwL2

Of course these are only my opinions and you're well within your rights to disagree with some or all of it!

Who are your favourite Elphabas?

Who do you think excels at the various performance elements?

Would love to hear people's thoughts 💚

[Elphaba Lives @TheElphabaLives]

Just been thinking about how different all of the UK's Elphabas are, and how they all excel in different ways.

Thought I'd share my thoughts as to who I think is the strongest in the various different performance elements:

[Elphaba Lives @TheElphabaLives]

Best all round portrayal

1. Ashleigh Gray

2. Amy Ross

3. Jodie Steele

(Honourable mentions to Jennifer DiNoia, Louise Dearman, Alice Fearn, Willemijn Verkaik, Rachel Tucker and all of the phenomenal women to have played the role of Elphaba in the UK since 2006)
