Advantages: great singing, well written, new ideas

Disadvantages: not entirely accurate for OZ fans

Wicked is the story if the wicked witch of the west, a secondary story based on the Wizard of Oz. The musical gives a different insight into the Wicked witch of the west, as the audience come to realise that she was misunderstood and in fact the good witch.
The musical is currently being shown at the Apollo theatre in London, which is conveniently exactly opposite Victoria Station, giving easy routes for transport. Ticket prices can be found for as low as fifteen pounds if you go on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday in the upper circle, which is worth it.
The musical was brilliant, however the songs and story are quite unknown unlike most other musicals such as Grease, the lion kind or Mamma Mia for example. The quality of the performers was amazing, especially Glinda the good, the actresses who play here have to work super hard and my gosh they do a great job! The singing was fantastic, i wish id known the songs previously so i could sing along.
I would definitely recommend the musical, its cheap cheerful, colourful and for fans of the wizard of Oz, its a great new insight to the wicked witch of the west.

Summary: great musical , go see!
