Is there any chance that Wicked will extend past February? I'm going to London in March and that is the one show I want to see. I know that Idina will long be gone, but I'd like to see the show anyway.

From what I have read, WICKED is booking to 24 Feb 07, so if Tickets are going well at that time (which might do if Kerry Ellis does extremely well after Idina Menzel leaves) then it would look likely for it to extend through

The new booking period goes on sale on Sunday 3rd December, according to ticketmaster.co.uk.

I imagine it will extend - from what I've heard Keery is really very good and Idina wasn't exactly huge here before it started. Still ins't really in Joe Public's eyes.

I take it that Kerry Ellis is Idina's standby. Has she gone on yet?

Kerry Ellis went on after "One Short Day" for last Wednesday's evening performance, and performed the whole show on Thursday, Friday and Saturday matinee. She is fantastic, according to a friend of mine who went on Friday evening - I can't wait to see her perform the role.

From what I've 'heard' she's really very good - very different with a British accent and not like Idina. She sounds a lot angrier and pronounces the lyrics more. Basicly she puts a 'T' in Gravity,

Looking forward to January now.
