"Wow. So...tonight was one of the best nights of my short and convoluted life. I saw "Wicked" at the Pantages Theater in LA, followed by an awesome lesbian party in Studio City. Rum, gin, vodka, a spa, and hot girl-on-girl action...does life get any better than that?"

I believe that just about covers it. To quote Miss Brodie, "For people who like that sort of thing, that's the sort of thing they like."

The show opens on the 21st of Feb, It just started previews yesterday. I too thought yesterday was the OPENING NIGHT, becuase I read somewhere that previews began Jan 31st for a Feb 10th, opening, but I guess I read wrong...

I went last night and they changed a few things around from the tour cast (I've only seen the tour cast so I can only say differences between LA and the Tour). They cut out the dancing between Elphaba and the Wizard like they did in the other casts and if I'm not mistaken, Dancing Through Life has new choreography. There's a few other things here and there that I remember I noticed but I can't recall right now.

I didn't like Eden so much last night as I did when I saw her in San Francisco...I heard rumors that she was sick though so maybe that's why.

The ensemble seemed a bit weak here and there too but maybe I'm just so used to seeing the tour cast that it's weird seeing other people. It's still the first preview so I guess they'll all have time to work.

What really needs to be reviewed? Isn't this mostly a recycled cast?

I'm sorry, but I hope they kick you and your baby down to the El Capitain! - no four year old should be taken to a Broadway musical...

Which people are you talking about? I don't even like Wicked that much; I just know how to find stuff. re: Wicked LA Reviews?
