Saw it once with my family in Los Angeles. Loved the show and will probably go to see it again sometime. It's great to have a show that connects with all different age groups in different ways.
I understand where many posters on this site find the musical too vanilla. They seem to want shows that are more controversial, edgier, or appeal to a certain demographic.
I however think that it takes a lot of tallent to create a show with such broad appeal for all ages. Not to mention the fact that a show with that kind of appeal is more financially lucerative, and isn't that the objective for a major broadway show?

Only once, in London.
I'd be willing to see it again but my mum hated it (not her sort of thing at all) and she mostly who I go to the theatre with so I'd need to find somebody else.

Once, pre-Broadway, and once on Broadway last month.
That was enough.

I must ask... I'm really not trying to be a smart-ass here, but if you hate the show so much, then why did you see it twice??

Who says (or implies) I ever hated it? I don't hate it. I don't like it, but I don't hate it.
I saw it pre-Broadway because it sounded interesting. I saw it. I thought it was fun and had a lot of problems.
I was in New York last month and my friend and I are both fans of Julia Murney, so we thought we'd see Wicked again because of her. My friend and I tried for lotto and my friend won.
That's the story.

Are you crazy? See it!
Every performance is different.

I'm going to see it for the first time on the 29th August 2007.
I'm sure I'll love it as I am obsessed with the soundtrack and have the book.

I agree with everything you said.
I'm not a really big Wicked fan at all, but what you said is pretty damn true.
|
music is my life!!!

i actually haven't seen it live but i'm currently waiting for my parents to be brave and buy tickets for in the west end! i've seen the OBC full show on youtube though...
