So I’ll simply say this.”“Take my hand and walk with me to the end of this road paved with gold, and hopefully, the things that I’ve found might find you too.

I’ve seen performances by many iconic Elphabas, and I’ll never forget them. Then the movie came out, and your performance completely bewitched me! Your Elphaba touched my heart so deeply that just seeing your face — those glasses, those freckles — moved me to tears. You embodied the character so authentically and made us all feel a little less alone.I’m not very good with words, but I love doing cosplay, and until now, I had only cosplayed as the great Carrie Fisher’s Princess Leia. Now there’s you. Thank you,” read the comment.
