A truly lovely lady & a good friend

She has made far more as the voice of

the elder sister in the film "Frozen"

than her years with "Wicked"

That was my question -- how long has she starred in WICKED?

AND -- Is she the one who had the successful career in NYC finance before deciding on Broadway?

I will not say by whom, but in recent times, I was promised in front of industry pros that I would be set up with first an agent, then voice work. Mine phone ringeth not, so this is where we say, "Hats off to Hollywood promises."

Not finance Roger she was always

theatrically afflicted having

been very succesful in "Rent"

She spent 2 years doing Elphaba

on Broadway earning her a "Tony"

She was brought to the West End

in London to open the British

production for a short time

Except for the current hiatus

that show at the Apollo Victoria

is still running strong

Between "Rent" & "Wicked" she replaced

Sherie Rene Scott as Amneris in "Aida"

Sherie had replaced Idina in "Rent"

After "Wicked" a new Broadway musical

"If/Then" was created for her but it

only ran a year

As a strange coincidence 1 of my brothers

has become best friends with her father

only learning of the relationship with his

daughter (slightly different last name)

while having a dinner together
