Wicked

What they loved

• The magic effects
• Inventive plot, big belting numbers
• Incredible from start to finish - set design was outstanding and they kept fairly close to the book even with paring it down
• It's a modern classic telling an entirely new but somewhat familiar story. Really strong performances
• Its parallel story to Wizard of Oz
• I loved the music, the costumes, the sets, the story. Everything. It is a phenomenal show!
• The music and story are both brilliant!
• I love the way it makes you think about the story of The Wizard of Oz in a totally new way
• Everything! Amazing story and unforgettable soundtrack
• Incredible music, costumes, original story
• Amazing special effects. Modern with catchy but also a complex score.
• I loved this show when I saw it on broadway in New York then I saw it in London and still loved it. I love how they show a different story to Elephba and you see she really isn't a bad person just misunderstood. when I got my cochlear implants this was the first show I wanted to see and it was coming to Glasgow and they heard my story and gave me a fully signed poster and I got to meet the cast in their costume which was amazing (yes I did cry lol) hearing the songs for the first time I cried and had the biggest smile on my face the whole show.
• Amazing show and performance
• Plot, music.
• I know what I like, when she got up and flew and there was all smoke and the song was amazing
• I love the story
• Loved the show, Lucy as Elphaba is insanely talented
• Really good time. Performers were flawless.
• It's a proper musical!
• Amazing songs
• Love this show
• The spectacle!
• Seen multiple times over the years but first in a while. The whole show is excellent overall. Songs are just the greatest
• Defying Gravity
• The spellbinding story, incredible sets, absolute bops. Meaningful, emotional, beautiful.

What they didn't enjoy

• dr dilamonds songs
• I’d forgotten some of the backstory
• Nothing
• Interval
• When we saw it Galinda was played by a lady with quite an annoying voice. We did see it on tour though.
• There are a few songs I really enjoyed but I haven't found myself listening to the majority of them since.
• It was a bit long but I can remember a lot of it in my head but I know more songs from other musicals ive been too after
• Sadly current cast are weak
• 2nd act a bit slow
• The first Act is stronger than the second which is a retread of the events of the film.
• The Wizard's songs made me fall asleep
• It doesn’t quite have the same magic as the early years (2006-2010). I felt some of the timing of the jokes was a little off and felt like stage production was kind of going through the motions. Could this be just a symptom of a lot of long-running shows as Phantom and Les Mis have the same issues
• Seems too long
