At this performance the role of Elizabeth will be played by Adele Dazeem.

Adele made her Broadway debut as Moritz in the Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winner, Nert, for which she received a Tony Award Nomination. She followed that with her Tony Award-winning performance as Ephraima in Wicked-ly, which she subsequently brought to London’s West End…Dazeem’s voice can be heard in the Disney animated musical, Farfignugen, singing its Oscar award winning song, Let It Go.
