Two small things today: The official site for Wicked in London put up a promotional video today, featuring great footage from the show — It’s located in the Video Archive, more specifically, the Online Videos section. Note: It is in .FLV format, meaning if you haven’t already, you’ll need to download a free version of the FLV player – link is located on the main page of the Archive (this format is a downloadable version of Flash streaming videos.) If anyone wants to get this to me in .mov format, contact me. And if you’d just prefer to watch the streaming video, it can be directly found on the official site.

Also, Idina gave a great interview to Theatre.com about being in the show again. Click here to read. A new shot of the show is also featured, and that was added to the Gallery here.

Thank you to all the people who e-mailed me about these. I was gone for the whole day yesterday and most of today, so I didn’t hear about them until just now. But! Though many of you have probably seen these, I have put up a handful of new Wicked stills to the Gallery! They’re beautiful, and much bigger than the pics before. (A few of the older images, I’ve found bigger sizes, but I’ll add those at another time. ) So here they are:

Took me a bit longer to get this up and running, but it’s finally done! Thanks again to Mycah @ Purple Haze, Inc., a brand new Video Archive has been added to the site! It contains all the downloadable and streaming videos on the site before, but they’re just organized slightly different (hopefully, more clearly.) So check it out!

I decided that at least one layout on this site should reflect what Idina is doing now (and what she’s most well-known for), so let me know how you like the new layout

An article about Wicked appeared in yesterday’s (9/20/06) “Daily Telegraph” newspaper, and the new promo photos were used. It’s a great little article, and Idina is interviewed along with other members of the cast. I’ve added the scan to the Gallery, as well as a handful of fan photos from the Stage Door! Take a look! (remember: If you have Fan Photos you’d like to be added, just e-mail them to me directly at kim[at]idina-here.com with the subject labeled “Fan Pictures”)

Also, an enormous thanks to Brittany for making a donation, as well as to an Anonymous contributor who graciously gave $100! One more year has been paid in full, thank you all so much. All donors have been added to the list on the donations page.

Thanks to Adam for sending these, I’ve added 3 new pictures of Idina in the original London cast of Wicked to the Gallery! These are sized the same as the ones on the Official Site, but hopefully I’ll run across bigger versions in the future. If I do, I’ll replace the new additions. So take a look, Idina looks great!

I’d also like to thank Katie for making a donation to the site! Thanks to all those who have contributed, the entire next year has been paid for! I couldn’t have done this without you guys and your support! Donations are still welcome, of course, and will help pay for the following years.

Peace, guys! (ps: The new video archive will be added in the next few days, so keep a look-out for that!)
