My boyfriend took me to see Wicked as an early Christmas present last year and I have to say it was one of the best Christmas presents ever. I didnt really know what to expect and from the moment it started I was blown away. The singing and the music is just incredible and the story is moving as well. I would definitely recommend for anyone, even those who dont like the ideas of musicals to go and see this.
The story links well with the Wizard of Oz and there are many little references to it throughout the show.
After the show I was given the soundtrack and now even 9 months later I still love listening to the songs and singing along.
A must see for everyone out there who loves singing, dancing and the glittery shows of the west end!
The plot of the show starts at the beginning of the Wizard of Oz, where the witch has been killed and the sparkly red shows are showing from under the house, and with the villagers rejoicing that she is dead. Glinda the good witch then goes on to tell her story about the wicked witch as it turns out she used to be friends with her. It then goes back in time and shows how the wicked witch was born and what happened to her and then goes to college and meets Glinda. The story then goes on to tell how the wicked witch wants to meet the wizard of oz and her journey to meeting him. I dont want to give too much away, as I think everyone should go to see this and see the story unfold for themselves.
