Marcie's journey with Wicked is arguably the most interesting. She first began as an Elphaba Understudy on the 1st National Tour in 12/2006. She left the tour in 12/2007 to play the role of Nessarose in the Los Angeles company.
In 04/2008, the Elphaba Understudy was injured and Caissie Levy was forced to perform on a reduced schedule due to health issues. Marcie then assumed the position of Elphaba u/s, while still playing the role of Nessarose (the only other woman who has done this is Jenna Leigh Green). She began to Standby for the role in LA on 05/14/08 during which she was asked to lead the Broadway production. She left her Standby post officially on 11/02/08.
Marcie was the original Elphaba on the 2nd National Tour.

Jemma Rix (née Stevenson) began her Wicked career performing the role of Elphaba in the Original Cast of a condensed, 30-minute version at Universal Studios in Osaka, Japan in 2006. The production contained a hybrid of English and Japanese lines. She was then tapped to stand by for Amanda Harrison when the first Australian production opened in 2008. She ended up performing most of the shows due to Amanda's constant absences, and eventually took over for her in Sydney.
