An experience of a lifetime...... WOW!!!!!!!, Oct 25, 2010

reviewer: Anna from UK

I went to see Wicked a couple of weeks ago and was completely in awe. It was the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my life. I have always wanted to be in theatre, but this just totally blew me away and inspired me even more to be in theatre. The cast was amazing - two of the main characters had been on those Joseph / Nancy programmes where Andrew Lloyd Webber is putting on a west end theatre production. Me and my friends were sat there at the begining like "OMG that's Lee Mead who won Joseph!!!" or "That's Rachel Tucker who was in the Nancy show!". We had great seats, despite our last-minute booking, and I would DEFINATELY reccomend anyone to go and see it, as I, and my friends, found it an experience of a lifetime.

Wicked!!!!!, Jun 27, 2008

reviewer: Sarah from UK

i saw this yesterday at the Apollo Victoria theatre, after
watching many versions of the
Broadway cast on youtube (original cast). However in this
version, Alexia (plays
Elphaba) is amazing, literally! This show is 100x better than
the Broadway one. Phenomenal! THe music is breathtaking,
especially the voices of the cast. Alexia has definitely got a
bright future ahead of her. I recommend this show to
everyone. It has different genres of music for everyone's
taste. THe story line is superb, it is romantic, funny,
emotional, blood bumping, sometimes even scary! Its an all
singing, dancing, and acting show. It even brings up issues
in todays world, which makes it educational, and i'm sure
you'll agree with me, heart warming. I went to the west end
with great expectations, and walked away astounded.

Everyone watch WICKED it is .... Wicked! The most amazing
experience ive ever had, and probably, ever will have!

magical...AMAZING!, Aug 14, 2007

reviewer: Nicole from London, UK

Wicked is the best musical to hit the theatre in years. It has incredible music and lyrics accompanied by a compelling storyline that will leave you wanting to watch it again and again! The best part is that it is family friendly show that appeals to all ages. GO SEE IT!!

Slow and boring, Feb 08, 2012

reviewer: Colin from Essex

The worst musical I've ever seen, I feel very sorry for the cast because the main problem is a very poor script and abysmal songs. The whole production is clunky and awkward, to be honest I've seen better productions at provincial theatre pantomimes, this is not the quality you expect from a major London theatre. My wife and I saw the new Wizard of Oz production in London late last year and it's in a completely different league to this show. We were not alone in our opinion of this show, half the group on our coach said that they thought it was slow and boring. My wife and I seriously considered leaving in the intermission but decided to give a second chance; sadly the second half was only marginally better than the first. I’m sure that some people really do enjoy the show but if you have seen productions like The Wizard of Oz, Billy Elliot or Chicago, think twice before spending money on seeing Wicked
