One could be forgiven for feeling a little burned out on Wicked these days.  After two super-sized movies and a press tour that seemed to last a decade, Wicked-mania feels a bit on the wane.  However, there is no substitute for seeing this show live on stage.  This show is more relevant than ever,  and the current touring cast are exceptional.

I'll start my review by saying Wicked is my favorite musical of all time. I have seen it 10 times now, all in different cities, and each time left the theatre with tears in my eyes and my heart feeling a little lighter. This is the greatest example of how magical theatre can be, in my opinion. And my hopes for a beautiful production for my 10th viewing were not dashed in the slightest-- Olivia Valli and Celia Hottenstein bewitch the audience from their first moments on stage. 

There’s a reason why WICKED has become one of the most beloved musicals in the history of theatre, it is quite simply fantastic in every aspect.

The new year is almost upon us and so it seems this is the best time to reflect on some of the theatrical experiences over 2023 that made a lasting impact.
