Did a search, couldn't find anything. If you were given the task of revising the book of the musical, what would you change?

I know this is a big part of the show but its sometimes why people hate it...
The whole cruelty to animals thing...thats kind of a weak part of the story if there was one. Even though I love Wicked, i think they could work on that...

I agree with Mistress. But if you look he does make EXTREMELY sublte hints that he does. But its not obvious at all

I would not have Elphaba be responsible for creating the Scarecrow, Tin Man and Cowardly lion and be more truthful to Baum's OZ history where these characters are concerned.

make the time dragon clock a larger part of the plot. it is very important in the novel, and just seems to be part of the scenery in the show.

I would add more Fiyero and more Boq. In the book he has a much larger part then he does in the actual show and I really like his character. And I agree that the whole cruelty to animals thing, while trying to give off a good message of morality, is a weaker point in the story line. I do think they could work on that a little more.

make it truer to the show. ie: make it darker

Yeah the show has been censored a bit from the book which kind of sucks because I think the story is supposed to be dark. But thats just me.

Hav Boq be more like he was in the book. Instead of the geeky musical rendition. He such a little perv...

I would have Stephen Sondheim re-write the entire thing - sticking closely to the actual book, of course.
"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!"

BSoBW every post u've made today has to do with nudity. How strange. I bet sondeheim would do a good job with the show.

Yeah they turned Boq into a geeky schoolboy in the show which really sucks. They need to completely redo Boq and Nessarose in the show, and give them more stage time and solos.

Add Tick Tock (the role can be quite humorous). Have him kill Dillimond, programmed by Mme. Morrible,
and have Elphie bash Morrible's face in with the Trophy -

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive.
"Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot."
"No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one."
Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.
