Megan Hilty: From 'Wicked' to 'Nine to Five' The musical debuted on Broadway in 2003. Hilty joined the cast in 2004 after graduating from the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama, taking over the role from Kristin Chenoweth. The Broadway production's success spawned productions in Chicago, Los Angeles, London's West End, Tokyo, and Stuttgart, along with a North American tour that has visited over 30 cities in Canada and the United States.
Hilty currently stars in the open-ended Los Angeles production at the Pantages Theatre, and will next go on to star as Doralee Rhodes in a musical based on the 1980s workplace comedy Nine to Five. Dolly Parton, who played the character of Doralee in the original film, has written music for the upcoming stage show, which will open in LA in fall of 2008. Hilty will co-star alongside Wicked star Stephanie J. Block, who will play Judy Bernly.
Off the stage, Hilty performed the singing voice of Snow White in Shrek the Third and guest starred on the Disney Channel's The Suite Life of Zack and Cody as Enid. She appeared in an episode of Ugly Betty—"Something Wicked this Way Comes"—as her Wicked persona Glinda.
