We’re in the midst of Oz-mania, as Wicked: For Good hits theaters, bringing the musical epic to a conclusion. Will Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande get Oscar nominations? We’ll have to wait and see, but certainly, both actresses will forever have an association with the characters Elphaba and Glinda. And Wicked has especially resonated with young girls. In a video from BBC Radio 1, Cynthia visits her old high school in the U.K., and the current students go absolutely nuts when she arrives. After the kids stop squealing with delight, they ask Cynthia questions, and of course, ask her to sing. You can watch the full video of Cynthia Erivo’s visit to her alma mater below:
The BBC reporter shows Cynthia several old photos of herself as a teenage student. Back then, she was in plays like Guys and Dolls, Bugsy Malone, and My Fair Lady. She then surprises students who are rehearsing “For Good” from Wicked, and they ask her several questions. One of them asks what the most rewarding moment of her stardom has been thus far. The two-time Oscar nominee says this very moment, standing before the girls in her old school, is the most rewarding. Getting to impart her experience to the next generation is what it’s all about.
Of course, the most tear-jerking moments of the video is when Cynthia herself joins the kids in singing “For Good.” This was after one girl bluntly asked her, “Will you sing?” Luckily, she obliges her. The song “For Good” in any context is one that can elicit tears no matter what. But hearing Cynthia Erivo sing it with the young girls who have the same hopes and dreams she did as a teenager, standing where she once stood? Yeah, you try not to get misty-eyed watching that. We here at Nerdist didn’t stand a chance.
