She criticized the visual presentation, saying, “The dancers’ costumes looked cheap and tacky.” One moment reportedly pushed her over the edge. “During the tornado, they came into the crowd and were shooting the crowd with water guns. After 15 minutes, I left.”

OMG!

After this and last year's Willy's Chocolate Experience, I'm looking forward to stories about whatever cultural treasure the UK bootlegs in 2026.

I'm fascinated that these Bialystock & Bloom producers are so blatantly ripping off both Wicked and Cirque du Soleil's "O" in their advertising... and getting away with it. Well, maybe they aren't - given the audience revolt.

Now I'm curious -- why were the munckins on stilts?!

The trailer does make it look pretty decent - must be a master editing job.

Anyway, I get that The Wizard of Oz has a lot of sentimentality for some people and offers up a lot of directorial possibilities, but seriously...just do the movie onstage, otherwise the audience is going to revolt. No one wants to see a director's masturbatory "reimagined" version of the story - especially without the famous songs.

This line in the article made so little sense to me that I thought, "well - that's peak 2025."
