Megan Hilty - Glinda for the Los Angeles production of the musical Wicked

(Starting February 10, 2007 at the Pantages Theatre)

Megan captivated audiences as Glinda in the Broadway musical Wicked, from May 2005- May 2006. She appeared in the new musical Vanities at Theatreworks in Palo Alto, California, and now rejoins Wicked in the Wicked tour from September - December, 2006. Kate Reinders is the new Glinda on Broadway.

For her Broadway debut in Wicked, Hilty seemed to live Glindaness through and through. She was very well loved by audiences.

As cleverly as she portrayed the socialite Glinda in Act I of Wicked, she was also able to shift gears in Act II and convey to the audience the deeper emotions that the character develops. That's Megan Hilty in the photo -- Glinda offers Elphaba the Grimmerie. Read about the souvenir book Wicked the Grimmerie.
