Well, I like all of them, but Eden and Willemijn Verkaik(Germany cast) are my all time favorites. Eden was the first Elphaba I saw, and she was amazing. Willemijn Verkaik(Vill-ah-men/meen Fehr-kike) could and can give all the other Elphabas a run for their money. She is extremely consistent in her singing. And Wicked sounds really good in German.

I saw Wicked with Ana Gasteyer, Kristy Cates, Eden Espinoza and Dee Roscioli. I liked Eden the best. I've seen the shows on YouTube and Stephanie J Block did really well too. And I agree that the German Elphaba is really good!
