why do so many people hate wicked so much? I mean myself personally can't stand, it but thats cause I hate the concept, the music, and the politcal undertones, but thats just me.

I think it's also backlash because people were behaving as if Kristen and Idina can walk on water.

Avenue Q is a bit too self-concious to make good parody fodder.

Oh my god there's a lot of you here....

My name's Gil; I run the BroadwayAbridged site and I just want to thank you all for the comments. You've really inspired me to renew my domain name. Oh, the $7.95 a year I reliquish to make the masses happy...

By the way, yes, I'd love to do a Urinetown or AvenueQ abridged but these things are hard to write so long after you've seen the show. If I see AvenueQ again I'll abridge it too, although I agree with Plum in that it'll be harder because it's so self-mocking anyway.

I really appreciate the positive response. Keep spreading the word and I'll keep updating as I see new shows.

I must admit I laughed at that. The MILLIE one is funny too.

I'll have to see it again first. I find it really hard to write these when I haven't "just seen" it. The sheer bitchiness of the reviews really only works well when I just sat in a theatre for two hours. I'm planning on doing a Rent Lottery in mid October sometime. It's so ripe for parody now, especially when it's on it's billionth cast.

There're a bunch I'd love to do if they were still open. "Miss Saigon", "Les Mis". I could probably do "Phantom" without having to see it again considering the entire thing's sung through and I have the CD. I suppose the same goes for Les Mis and Phantom too, now that I think about it.

"Brooklyn" is probably my next (I have tickets later this month).

By the way, if anyone wants to receive updates, send a blank e-mail to updates@broadwayabridged.com and you'll be put on the mailing list.

Can you read the parody first?

Even WICKED lovers admit is is hysterical.

Get some culture.

Or better yet a sense of humour.

Wicked was brilliant.

What about Peter Pan? That is a new revival with an aging star. Sounds like a lot of potential to me.

What do you think?
