A little bit about her:
 
Megan Hilty hails from Washington, but is a NYC girl at heart. She attended Carnegie Mellon and joined the cast of Wicked as the standby for Galinda shortly before abdicating the role in 2005. She followed the show through Broadway and tours for years becoming the most recognized Glinda besides K. Chenoweth. She gave the role a youthful vibrancy that blossomed into what we as society knows as a woman before leaving the show in January of 2009. While finishing off the show see hopped on board the beginnings of a musical rendition of the 1980's movie 9 to 5. She worked alongside the likes of Stephanie J. Block, Allison Janney, and Dolly Parton herself to form a production to proudly house multiple Tony nominations. Other various stage credits include Vanities and various concerts in collaboration with artists such as Ryan Scott Oliver , Shoshana Bean , and Scott Alan.
