WICKED Names New Elphaba and Glinda Beginning This March

Let us be glad, let us be grateful! It was announced today that Keri René Fuller, who is currently the Elphaba standby, will assume the role full time, alongside Emma Glynn as Glinda in Wicked beginning March 3, 2026 at the Gershwin Theatre here on Broadway. 

Wicked will mark Flynn’s Broadway debut. She recently led the West End production of Clueless as Cher. 

Lencia Kebede and Allie Trimm will play their final performances on Sunday, March 1. Currently the 4th longest-running show in Broadway history, Wicked is currently in its 23rd year on Broadway. 

Additional principal casting will be announced in the coming weeks. 

The Broadway sensation Wicked looks at what happened in the Land of Oz…but from a different angle. Long before Dorothy arrives, there is another young woman, born with emerald-green skin, who is smart, fiery, misunderstood, and possessing an extraordinary talent. When she meets a bubbly blonde who is exceptionally popular, their initial rivalry turns into the unlikeliest of friendships…until the world decides to call one “good,” and the other one “wicked.”
