A witching decision
"Although I did enjoy the show, it was probably not one of my favorites. I think that I would be in the minority regarding my opinion. Also, I think that it was a little too drawn out for me. My 10-year-old grandson really enjoyed it, and that was the main reason for our visit. I would have not chosen that play if it were not for him. The acting was good however it was difficult for me to understand Galinda‘s words when she was singing. Additionally, the applause at the end of the show was evident that I was in the minority. "

Fun but no Lloyd Webber
"Fun performance and great staging. The lyrics and music however were not great. Unlike all the great musicals and theatre productions, no song was memorable, it sounded like a load of spoken words put to random music. I enjoyed it, but would not see it again. "

mixed review
"I liked the scenery which was very unique. Loved the lighting for Emerald City. Creative use of the cables over the audience for the chimps to fly. The costumes were excellent. Groups of actors with good singing voices---however words difficult to understand at times due to loud volume and so many voices. I would have lessened the number of songs and dances overall. (yes I know this is a musical) The plot seemed weak to me. It is the only time I have ever wanted to leave during an intermission, but when I thought of the price of the ticket---decided to stay until the end. "

The story lets it down…
"The production is good overall, but the story is…lame. There is so much hype around this show and the movies and honestly, the Rockettes Christmas production is better. Operation Mincemeat, not really kid friendly, is WAY better. Maybe I went in to watching this show with expectations set too high. Unless you are obsessed with the story, I would say go see something else."

Impressive Voices, Yet the Show Fell Flat
"I recently attended Wicked in New York. The cast was clearly very talented, and the vocal performances were impressive. However, for me, the overall experience didn’t quite come together. While the production values were strong, I found it difficult to stay fully engaged, and something about the performance felt like it was missing that extra spark. Unfortunately, my partner didn’t stay through the entire show, which reflects how we both felt. I know Wicked is beloved by many, and I can certainly appreciate the skill and dedication of the actors, but this particular performance just wasn’t the right fit for us."

Doesn't live up to the hype
"I liked the set. But I didn't care for the musical overall. The story was strange and didn't make sense to me. The words were hard to make out, especially the singing. There could have been more drama in the story. The humor was a bit forced and even the actors didn't seem to know what to take seriously and what was funny or sarcastic. I know it is popular but could have been better. Maybe the movie will be."
