"WICKED" - The Broadway TOUR!

Posted: 10/19/05 at 9:02pm

Now, first let me say I have enjoyed "Wicked" very much, And have been very fortunate to see most of the cast combonations thusfar... But I DO get the creeps when I see little PINK 12 year old girls and little GREEN 12 year olds ready to rumble. That having been said, They are beginning "WICKED" Backstage tours like this is a Disney attraction - Could this be a good thing? What's next, Martha Stewart as "Madame Morribe"(after Liza cancels of course, LOL!)

What does a backstage tour have to do with Martha Stewart? And what's wrong with spreading the magic and the art of theatre to people of all ages?

hear, hear!

"...But Kungurtseva reels off multiple fouettes and the tape is stopped so she can take a bow. The Jester, an abomination introduced to Swan Lake in Soviet times, extorts applause from the audience. The cuts don't help the storytelling, the production is bare bones and they go for the '50s-style happy ending. The audience cheers like mad at the end. It's the Russian ballet, after all..."

Opera Companies do it all the time. At least I know the Lyric Opera of Chicago does.

What's the reason for the rumble? Did Elphie kill Riff or Bernardo?

It was Theatre, In the beginning.... Now it's a New Book & a Tour and a sequel (et al, et al, et al)
Too bad I missed it way back when Bobby Morse was the Wizard.

Well, if you want to get technical, it was a book first. Then a movie. Then a book from a different perspective. Then a musical. But I see nothing wrong with sharing the magic of theatres with all ages.
