I think you might be right! I had already had this scheduled from a few weeks ago, and I just figured that since she was first cover Glinda, she was second cover Nessa. Like how Eden and Shoshana were.

@@wickedmemories3240 Eden would have been first cover Nessarose, at least at first. Eden was the first Nessa cover to go on amd had already gone on perhaps half a dozen times before she ever went on ad Elphaba. Eden debuted in the role in December 2003; Cristy Candler, the other OBC cover, debuted in March 2004. By late 2004, the show had 3 Nessa covers - Cristy, Stacie Morgain Lewis, and Shoshana, which is how Shsohana ended up at the bottom of that list. (She herself has said her one performance in that role was a genuine fluke.) Kate was undoubtedly a first understudy for Glinda; she went om far more regularly than did Erin Mackey, the other Glinda understudy. But I think by 2007, Kate Fahrner and Cristin Boyle were more egalitarian in sharing Glinda shows Sorry, this is all technical stuff and beside the point.

@@andrewdittmar361 no it’s totally fine! It’s all very fascinating to me how complicated Wicked can be with their cover system. At one time in the Broadway company, they had 6 Glindas! You can see it on the wayback machine. Kara Lindsay was recently in as lead and Tiffany Haas was coming to the end of her standby run at the time. They literally had four Glinda understudies listed on the website at the time - Lindsay Northen, Heather Spore, Emily Mechler and Emily Ferranti. 😂 web.archive.org/web/20141228123447/wickedthemusical.com/cast-creative/

@@wickedmemories3240 On the website doesn't necessarily mean they actually functioned as an understudy in the company though. Heather Spore was credited as Glinda understudy for a decade after her final show as Glinda and had apparently internally stopped covering the role years before she actually left.

@@andrewdittmar361 Yes. When was her last show? It had to be with Kerry right? Or was that Katie Adams?
