I wish! They should make one. It would be hysterical.
Not a Wicked hater....love this site. The CoC script is priceless and it is my favorite show of last season! The crack in the pants just had me screaming at my desk at work!

Absolutely priceless!!! Now there's even more reason NOT to go see it.
why do so many people hate wicked so much? I mean myself personally can't stand, it but thats cause I hate the concept, the music, and the politcal undertones, but thats just me.
I think it's also backlash because people were behaving as if Kristen and Idina can walk on water.

Avenue Q is a bit too self-concious to make good parody fodder.

Oh my god there's a lot of you here....
My name's Gil; I run the BroadwayAbridged site and I just want to thank you all for the comments. You've really inspired me to renew my domain name. Oh, the $7.95 a year I reliquish to make the masses happy...
By the way, yes, I'd love to do a Urinetown or AvenueQ abridged but these things are hard to write so long after you've seen the show. If I see AvenueQ again I'll abridge it too, although I agree with Plum in that it'll be harder because it's so self-mocking anyway.
I really appreciate the positive response. Keep spreading the word and I'll keep updating as I see new shows.

Broadwayabridged, you rock! Please write more soon. Any chance of a Rent spoof?
I must admit I laughed at that. The MILLIE one is funny too.

I'll have to see it again first. I find it really hard to write these when I haven't "just seen" it. The sheer bitchiness of the reviews really only works well when I just sat in a theatre for two hours. I'm planning on doing a Rent Lottery in mid October sometime. It's so ripe for parody now, especially when it's on it's billionth cast.
There're a bunch I'd love to do if they were still open. "Miss Saigon", "Les Mis". I could probably do "Phantom" without having to see it again considering the entire thing's sung through and I have the CD. I suppose the same goes for Les Mis and Phantom too, now that I think about it.
"Brooklyn" is probably my next (I have tickets later this month).
By the way, if anyone wants to receive updates, send a blank e-mail to updates@broadwayabridged.com and you'll be put on the mailing list.

DEFY GRAVITY!
Can you read the parody first?
Even WICKED lovers admit is is hysterical.
Get some culture.
Or better yet a sense of humour.

Wicked was brilliant.
What about Peter Pan? That is a new revival with an aging star. Sounds like a lot of potential to me.
What do you think?
