2 A "Wicked" Musical   Review by: Jogusboy, Jun 18, 2009
This show is absolutely incredible! First of all, the set, lighting and costumes were lavish,colorful, and a pleasute to look at. Every singer in the show had an amazing voice. Each song had something new to offer, and the orchestra was good,too. The show was wonderfully acted, and you felt a connection and empathy for the characters. I saw it on tour, and comparing "our" Glinda to Kristin on YouTube,our Glinda had better acting in the ... read more

4 A Big Let down:(    Review by: lola, Jun 1, 2009
First of all, I read the book. I loved the book. I really did not do much research before going, so it is my fault for thinking it would be more like the book and it would be a darker show. To me, this was Disney's version of the book. However the singing was spectacular, it was just not "my thing". I also saw Billy Elliot the night before which blew me away, so Wicked compared to that was very dissapointing. And none ... read more

5 Best.Show.Ever.   Review by: Allie, Jun 1, 2009
Wicked is honestly the best musical I've ever seen. I usually cannot see a show more than once but I've seen Wicked four times and can't get enough. I reccomend this show for the young and the young at heart. You won't be dissapointed by the touching story of two best friends that we can all relate to in one way or another. Must see!

8 WONDERFUL WICKED   Review by: , May 15, 2009
I am going to see Wicked for a 5th time (I also saw a "sneak peek" before it even went into previews. On this 5th trip in, I will be taking my second group of Drama students and two "first time" teacher who are extremely excited about going to sse this WONDERFUL show, but I don't think they are more excited than me. It is truly an ingenous show!!!

9 Gotta see WICKED   Review by: Geena, May 6, 2009
If anyone is choosing between Wicked and something else, choose Wicked. I'm not a big fan of musicals, but I went to see it today at the Gershwin Theater with my 8th grade class and it was amazing. I loved the songs, the actors/tresses were SO into it and Galinda was incredibly funny. I have no negative reviews b/c it was perfect. The orchestra was great, the characters spoke loud and clear, and the singing was incredibly amazing. The ... read more

10 Sooo disappointing   Review by: sheep, May 2, 2009
I have been listening to and loving this music for over two years. I've read the rave reviews and was so looking forward to seeing the show itself. My husband and I attended it today in New York and it was an incredible let-down. Perhaps I was so used to hearing Idina and Kristin sing that I was waiting for the exact same performance from the two actresses in this production. The performances seemed a little flat and I felt no emotional ... read more

11 Is Wicked having growing pains?   Review by: theatremom, Apr 20, 2009
Wicked is still a great show. The 2009 cast is not as strong as earlier casts, with the exception of the Wizard. Joel Grey was terrific as the Wizard, Ben Vereen just kept playing as Ben Vereen (and playing to the laughs and applause which took away from the show), but the current Wizard seems to know how to blend into the story without getting overlooked. I've seen it with Idina and Kristen, with the two who followed them, and with the current ... read more

12 Wicked is a Must-See!   Review by: Lam, Apr 10, 2009
Wicked was a spectacular show that everyone should see! Though I hear that 2009's cast is not as good as before, I believe everyone was amazing! This show will answer every single question you had about "The Wizard of Oz" and more. Be ready for surprises and twists.

13 3 hours of GREATNESS   Review by: Paulie, Mar 18, 2009
This show is fantastic. The current cast is even better than the original. (sorry Idena) The only part that was a bit weak was the score, but the fantastic vocals make up for it ten fold. It's a really great twist on an old story.(the musical is not nearly as dark as the book)

14 MUST SEE!!!   Review by: SIL, Mar 8, 2009
AMAZING...I have seen over 15 broadway shows and this my number one so far. I love it all. The stage was great. I love the different and refreshing perspective of the wizard of oz. In the end I fell in love with the wicked witch. I recommend it highly.

15 Can we finally put hype to rest on Bway and start "thinking and creating" again?   Review by: , Mar 7, 2009
I have to agree with Rainman...and at the risk of being "ostricized" by the gaggle of tweens that flock to this show as if it were Mecca, I fail to see what all the hype is about...wait, I might have just answered my own question.
The show (like so many on Bway today) has a terribly flawed book. The score by Schwartz is far from memorable and to be frank, barely serves the plot and certainly doesn't develop the characters. This show ... read more
