Saw "WICKED!" on Broadway yesterday. It was fantastic! The music, the costumes, the story!! The special effects were phenominal! 

 

If anyone has a chance while in New York--this play is a must see!

 

You won't be disappointed!

I’ve seen it twice. First, years ago with the original Broadway cast and several years later in Los Angeles. Loved it and enjoyed it more than the book series.

It's one of my very favorites.  

 

It will be in Chicago until December 4th, and I bought my daughter 2 tickets as her birthday gift.  She saw it many years ago and is going to be thrilled to see it again with her boyfriend.

Was lucky enough to see Neil in concert numerous times. 

Glad I seized those moments, & didnt wait

Dont hate me, but I did not care for Wicked, yes, pretty costumes and production, but story line very hard to follow and music just fair.
