On a trip to the O2 last year to see Kylie, my bloke spotted a poster for the musical Wicked, and had been going on about going to see it ever since. So when his birthday rolled round this year, I bought us tickets to see the show. WOW Wicked is wicked! From the stage curtain showing the map of Oz, to the dragon above and the ...  Read the complete review

Wicked takes a magical twist to the story of the 'Wizard of Oz' and is musical theatre at its best. The two stories entertwine perfectly, and this adaptation of the book is truly a masterpiece. This is a classic in the making, with some of the most memorable musical moments in West End/Broadway history. The storyline will ...  Read the complete review

I am a big fan of West End shows and Wicked is be far my absolute favourite. This show is simply incredible; the production is professional, the dancing wonderful and the story magical. The show tells the story of Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch and their lives before and though the story of the Wizard of Oz. The ...  Read the complete review

This show is mind blowingly awesome. It puts a smile on your face the whole show through and you'll want to watch over and over again. Going to the west end will always guarantee a magical experience (pun not intended) but this really is in a league of it's own. The script is extremely clever, funny and highly entertaining. It tells the ...  Read the complete review

I've seen most the the shows that are on in London at the moment. Both myself and my boyfriend have wanted to see Wicked for ages but we've never got 'round to seeing it. The other week we managed to see it. We pre-bought tickets online and were sat right up in 'the gods'. I wasn't really sure what to expect from the show apart from it ...  Read the complete review

I am a huge fan of musicals, from Sound of Music to Phantom. I am not quite sure how I managed to find Wicked the Musical, but I'm glad I did. It is very definatly a musical, with humour for both adults and children, though it seems to have a slight pantomime twist, without detracting from the story. The story itself is a new twist on ...  Read the complete review

Words can not do this justice. I first saw Wicked! when the fabulous Idina Menzel played the shy, misfit teen Elphaba - AKA the Wicked Witch of the West from that much loved story The Wizard of Oz and I fell in love with everything about it. I laughed and I cried. I was angry and happy. It was a very confusing evening! This ...  Read the complete review

So you thought you knew the real story, didn't you? But then you hear something that doesn't quite fit and suddenly, you're not so sure what really is good and who is actually evil.

It had been my dream to visit London since the tiny age of just seven. This week I was lucky enough to travel down to London (first time on a plane too, I must add!) for a three-day trip. Not only was this alone a great experience, but we were also timetabled to see a show on the second night. At first, we were given the choice of ...  Read the complete review

My husband and I went to see Wicked in London for our 1st wedding anniversary. Before going to see it, I was so excited that I bought the CD soundtrack.
