During her time as Elphaba, she did a series of vlogs for Broadway.com. Her blogs featured Q&As, as we watched her get greenified every week. The intro was the third repeat of the chorus of Defying Gravity, and so was the conclusion. She did 11 blogs, including 3 special episodes. She featured her colleagues, Katie Rose Clarke and Derek Klena and gave us a great look into what it is like to be Elphaba.
