Mary Kate Morrissey is the latest green girl to take up residence at Broadway's Gershwin Theatre. The Wicked star joins a long line of illustrious Elphabas that came before her, including one particular Tony-winning vlogger who gave Broadway.com audiences a peek inside the Emerald City 11 years ago. Now it's Morrissey's turn to take fans behind the scenes with her own viridescent vlog, Positively Emerald. Beginning August 9, Morrissey will be our host for eight weeks, showing us the ins and outs of Oz. She'll catch up with castmates-including her Galinda, Alexandra Socha -visit other crew members who make the magic of Wicked possible and take us through daily life in one of the biggest hits Broadway has ever seen.
Wicked's Mary Kate Morrissey shows us around her backstage digs, including a close-up look at the world-class contouring Makeup Supervisor Christa Kaimimoku-Wong lends to Elphaba's iconic green hue.

Morrissey takes us into the OzCapella stairwell for a collab with Nichelle Lewis, star of Wicked's Emerald City sister, The Wiz (watch the finished product here). She also offers a quick trip Bach-stage with Assistant Stage Manager Jonathan Bach, and coaxes standby Allie Trimm into engaging in some illegal riffing. And of course, you can't end a night at Wicked without a cleansing de-greening.
