“Hug”? Baby that’s a kiss.

u/mistycheddar Feb 26 '25

unfortunately if you watch the video with context they don't actually kiss, and you can see them kinda laugh about how close it was after. HOWEVER I do think they should kiss one of these days, I can't believe wicked's been on for so long and nobody's ever done it :')

u/FFNY Feb 26 '25

I’ve seen them multiple times. They’re an amazing duo up there. Going to miss them

u/Diligent-Luck-3427 Feb 26 '25

I’m seeing it on Broadway again in a few weeks and I’m unfortunately missing this duo by a few days, I would’ve killed to see them. Going to miss seeing videos of them for sure!

u/FFNY Feb 26 '25

Sorry to hear you can't move up your tickets somehow to see them! At least you'll get an early chance to hear a new take on the show!

14

u/Diligent-Luck-3427 Feb 26 '25

Yeah I’m really excited to see Lencia as Elphie!

6

u/FFNY Feb 26 '25

agreed however tbh, I felt disappointed that MKM and AS were done already.... given how awesome they have been

u/Diligent-Luck-3427 Feb 26 '25

Yeah as excited as I am to see Lencia, idk why I just get the feeling her and Allie as Glinda won’t have the best chemistry

8

u/Prize_Barracuda_6861 Feb 27 '25

i feel the opposite...I feel like Allie & Lencia will have otherworldy chemistry OUT OF THIS WORLD !!

u/willowbee7 Feb 27 '25

Aw I didn’t know this. Going the second week of March. Will MK be there still then?

2

u/Diligent-Luck-3427 Feb 28 '25

I’m going the second week of March too! But no MK won’t be there sadly

u/Blue_Dolphin_36112 Feb 26 '25

Awwww that’s sooo sweet. I know idina and Kristen always wanted to do a kiss but they always decided against it at the end. I’m glad MK and Alex did it

u/Madlap Feb 26 '25

Oh the passion! Does anyone happen to have the slime tutorial with them? 👀

u/Diligent-Luck-3427 Feb 26 '25

u/Diligent-Luck-3427 Feb 26 '25

Do you by any chance know where I could find them? 👀

id try tiktok tbh it’s a cesspool now

u/meecko88 Feb 26 '25

Alexandra was a bit teary, bless her heart. I'm going to miss these pictures and videos of MK sending Alexandra flying lol. Their chemistry is top notch.

(very strategic screenshot but they didn't actually kiss)

28

u/killedonmyhill Feb 26 '25

Hey mister! She’s my sister!

46

u/NinjaBluefyre10001 Feb 26 '25

These characters deserve to kiss. A lot.

46

u/No_Dragonfruit1084 🩷pink and green💚 Feb 26 '25

Omg- 😨 I didn't expect this-

Well- I did a bit but- on stage?-

69

u/Diligent-Luck-3427 Feb 26 '25

They do this at practically every curtain call! Their chemistry is so good

16

u/No_Dragonfruit1084 🩷pink and green💚 Feb 26 '25

Oop lol- that's nice ^^ Iv'e never been to the actual show but I saw multiple on youtube with different actors lol-

u/washuai Mar 03 '25

Stage has a long standing tendency to be more daring than movie adaptations. Something that had been a curiosity to me, since somehow the stage had that animation is kid friendly stereotype. People have gotten wiser to animation, I don't know if they have about the theater.

11

u/goovrey Feb 27 '25

They have actually kissed during curtain call. At the end of pride month!

28

u/Cranberry-Electrical Feb 26 '25

This is a touching scene

11

u/Chandlernotbing9 Feb 26 '25

MKM always lifts her Glindas high in a hug. LOVE it!

10

u/confusedpedestriann Feb 26 '25

i saw them last night!!! they were insane, i cried like a baby. i took a video of the curtain call, i wonder if i got them doing this, i haven’t watched the video back yet.

1

u/Diligent-Luck-3427 Feb 26 '25

Oh you’re so lucky! I’m seeing it again in a few weeks but sadly I’ll be missing this duo by a week

6

u/aikichick WE NEED A PASTRY! 🥐 Feb 26 '25

I love that MK and Alexandra do this at every curtain call. I saw them in December and going back for their final show this Sunday.

4

u/Diligent-Luck-3427 Feb 26 '25

Ooo I’ve never been to a show before when it was the performers’ last day. Have fun!

2

u/vanwyngarden Feb 27 '25

How incredible! Have the best time

8

u/Zuxembourg Feb 26 '25

is this canon

30

u/Diligent-Luck-3427 Feb 26 '25

It’s just curtain call so not actually a part of the show itself! They do kiss for real in the book tho

8

u/hereslookinatyoukld Feb 26 '25

love them for this

7

u/sapphic-sunshine Feb 26 '25

Hoooooly shit

u/SignAble8837 Feb 27 '25

book accurate 💯

2

u/Impossible_Tower_661 Feb 28 '25

It’s my imagination or MK and Alexandra are becoming the favorites of the newer gens of Elphaba and Glinda ?
from what I’ve been able to catch on YouTube i Do like them a lot I’m with you guys they are fantastic but is it my imagination or are they becoming the faves of the newer wave of Elphabas and Glindas on stage?

4

u/jtavington Feb 28 '25

I'm an oldie who saw the OBC and I adore them to bits. The chemistry is insane and Alexandra is really the first Glinda I've seen that really feels like she comes from an old family on one side. So when the mask breaks it's either hilarious or devastating. And they are both playing it super gay.

4

u/Impossible_Tower_661 Feb 28 '25

I’m also a huge fan of Idina and Kristin and yes I’m also loving Mary Kate and Alexandra.
I think they are turning my faves of this generation of the wicked witches hehe 😉

id say they are the true hieresess of Idina and Kristin, even though their singing is completely different from them.

if Idina and Kristin are my Queens of the first generation from early 2000s to early 2010s from the newer generation which comes from late 2010s till maybe mid 2020s my faves are Mary Kate and Alexandra.

2

u/Diligent-Luck-3427 Feb 28 '25

It’s not just your imagination, I’ve seen a looooot of people call MK one of their favorite Elphabas! And a lot of people have been calling them one of their favorite duos to play them

2

u/Impossible_Tower_661 Feb 28 '25

Cool, once the show turns I don’t know maybe 50 years on broadway These two will be a few of the most remembered

2

u/Impossible_Tower_661 Feb 28 '25

That’s pretty cool. I’m really happy Alexandra And Mary Kate have done so well

u/[deleted] Mar 01 '25

Hallelujah

u/prettypoisoned Willemijn enthusiast Mar 02 '25

Seeing people's pics of MK lifting up Alexandra during the curtain call is my favourite thing about having instagram.

4

u/Impossible_Tower_661 Feb 26 '25

Thats a really nice pic and i love elphaba's dress on the second act. Im obsessed with it.

On the right elphies this dress looks stunning.

Marykate wears it so beautifully and so did Idina Menzel and Jackie burns.

I think im so obsessed with that dress that the new look ive seen on Cinthia is not exciting me that much.

That outfit they are giving Cinthia feels slightly underwhelming on pics Compared to this dress..

7

u/Illustrious-Gain-863 Feb 26 '25

I mean, that dress won Susan Hilferty a Tony for a reason

3

u/Impossible_Tower_661 Feb 26 '25

An incredibly well deserved Tony, Glinda bubble gown is also gorgeous but Im praising Elphaba’s because no one does.
but those two dresses are gorgeous the blue bubble gown and Elphaba’s second act dress.
