Wicked in the Bathroom

Posted: 7/7/07 at 10:50pm

In the bathroom of my local movie theater tonight (I saw Transformers....Julie White was great; someone explain the plot, please), "No Good Deed" was pumped over the speakers.

Fitting that it was played in the bathroom.

Im still trying to figure out why "Great Big Stuff" would be played in the bathroom at the movie theatre i went to.........

I'll have them clawing at eachother, like drag queens at a wig sale"

I've actually heard "No Good Deed" at my movie theatre as well. I just saw transformers too and Julie White was amazing!

WICKED and it's cast recording are properties of Universal Studios. Universal Studios makes movies. Movie theaters play music the studios send them to promote their films, products, etc. WICKED is a product of Universal Studios.

I've never heard No Good Deed in my movie theater, but they have played both For Good and Defying Gravity in the theater before the trailers and movie starts when they are showing all those ads on the screen and movie trivia.

I had "Defying Gravity" play in the previews of Pirates of the Caribbean 3. It was one of the weirdest things ever, simply because I don't think anyone else in that whole theatre even knew what "Wicked" is except the people I was with.

But yeah, "No Good Deed" is fitting for a bathroom moment. :)

When I first saw the thread title I first thought it was about the bathrooms in the Gershwin, like the OP was going to ask if they were nice or not. Wow, I'm wierd.

When I saw Evening on Tuesday, the Loews was playing Legally Blonde songs over the speaker.

I've heard a couple broadway tunes in my theater over the years, but none recently.

I thought this was going to be about the woman who is in the womens' restroom in the Gershwin, encouraging everyone through applause and inspirational words, such as, "Good job, ladies! You did it!" as people are exiting the restroom stalls. Bizarre.

I've seen her too. I've never been cheered on while peeing and hope I never am again.

I have no idea if she's there all the time, but she was there on the Sunday matinee I saw the show not that long ago. It was surreal.

Whenever I go to pacific theaters, I always hear broadway showtunes. Ive heard "Great Big Stuff" and "Hear I AM" from DRS. I've heard "For Good" "the wizard and I" and "defying gravity" from wicked. I heard "Once Upon A time" from brooklyn, and just yesterday when I went and saw ratatouille, I heard "So MUch Better" from Legally Blonde. However I was disappointed because it was the Demo version, and not the OBCR, which i found weird.

Yes, the most random showtune I've heard while peeing at a movie theatre was "Here I Am."

I used to work in a movie theatre, and cleaning up after people who would leave such treats as used diapers was NOT more enjoyable when it was to the sounds of "Knights of the Round Table," "September," or "For Good."

And one person commented on my thoughts about the Wicked score.

Go figure.

haha when I saw this thread I thought instantly of the last time I saw Wicked in Chicago. I make a habit of not going to the bathroom during intermission, b/c it's just insane, but I really had to pee, so I went. In the bathroom there were ushers directing people to open stalls and getting people to hurry by shouting "Rush and Flush, ladies, Rush and Flush."

Hilarious.

I've heard the Wizard and I and Always Look on the Bright Side of Life in my movie theatre.

Gee... and I thought it was odd that "Love You I Do" from the film version of DREAMGIRLS was playing on the radio a couple of weeks ago.

I saw "1408" and when I entered the theater it was playing, when I went to the bathroom it was playing, and as I was leaving it was playing. I could not believe it.
