WICKED- Love it, like it, or hate it?

Posted: 12/29/04 at 10:56pm

Finally, someone is asking this question! I havent posted much about Wicked lately anyway. I just wanna know what you guys thought of this show in a few sentences. Just post if you loved it, liked it, or hated it, and why. No arguing. Just post what you thought of it and if someone disagrees, dont start anything. Im just trying to gather a consensus. And dont say you hate it because of its fans.

Loved it- It was creative and fun. Idina and Kristin both gave break out performances and I thought this show gave a wonderful opportunity for actresses where as most shows have male leads. The music and book were also wonderful.

love it... to sum it up, it was funny, the actors were amazing (especially kristin in my opinion), the songs are catchy (LOVE "what is this feeling"), the sets are beautiful (that wizard's head is so cool!)

Like it. Great performances, some catchy ditties and cool art design. Had some major flaws that prevent me from loving it.

I don't have one solid answer.

Like the music.
Like the overall show.
Hate the fans.
Dislike the cast.
Dislike the book.

love it.

Liked it when I first saw it in March. Thought it was catchy and cute, but not something I needed to revisit.

Loved it when I saw it again in August for obvious reasons.

Loved the cast (Chris is my favorite)
Liked the music
I would have loved the show if the second act was as good as the frist. They also underuse much of the supporting cast which is sad because they are just as talnted as Kristin and Idina
The towel waving reminded me of a Per?nist rally. I kept chanting "Evita!" whenever they'd pan to the crowds. - SM2

Loved it- It was fresh, fun, and I couldn't get the music out of my head for weeks. Idina and Kristen (and the actresses who have since taken her place) have enormous stage presence and a likeablity that hooked me. It wasn't divas on stage belting to eachother, it was about the story, the music, the characters and the friendship. Call me cheesy, but it moved me. (Defying Gravity at the end of Act 1 certainly didn't hurt either)

We don't need so many bumps. Trust me, if there's a Wicked thread, EVERYONE (like/love/hate it) will follow.

love it
Chris and Kristin were in it. Enough said.
And Norby is such a great singer!

Love it. I love the music, the story, sets, costumes, and the actors (especially of the original cast).

Love it. The sets are amazing, the songs beautiful, and I love when Glinda and Elphaba sing together (especially "For Good"), because I like to hear their voices blend. It's cool how voices that are so different can come together like that.
And then, do you know Monseiur Marius, I believe I was a little in love with you.

Like it. Love Kristin.
