Wicked the Musical

[caryatid_kitten]

has anyone of you seen the musical, Wicked or at least heard the soundtrack? What do can you say about it? =)

[pepperprone]

hi caryatid_kitten. i haven't seen the musical but would love to someday! i do have the original soundtrack do. absolutely love singing to Idina Menzel's "Defying Gravity." I've made it my personal motto!

[caryatid_kitten]

Wicked is my current obsession! I saw the musical last Friday and it was spectacular! I too love Defying Gravity...It's very empowering! Idina Menzel's version is beautiful, but if you check on you tube, you can find Julia Murney's version (she's the current Elphie on Bway) and somehow her voice makes the song stronger?! That's just me...Anyway, when you have the chance, watch it!

WOW! I love Wicked! But I havent seen the play though.. I love the soundtrack! Defying Gravity, Im Not That Girl, Popular, etc. Haha!

San makakabili ng Wicked novel? Nakuha na ng friend ko yung last copy daw eh. Asar!

[caryatid_kitten]

I have no idea where to get the novel? Powebooks I guess??? Or Amazon.com. If you really want the book, you can have it special ordered though powerbooks, I guess. But ít might take a while

I watched the musical last month in broadway and I was blown away. Sobrang ganda ng productions, stage, music. It was funny and heartwarming. I didnt buy the soundtrack though, ang mahal eh. But i love all the songs and i found myself humming Defying Gravity during the intermission. I didnt like the book, it was kinda weird and to think I love reading science fiction/fantasy. Maybe the book isnt quite what i expected. The musical has deviated from the book IMHO, in a good way.

Akin na lang book mo! AHHHHH! I want the book!

[doc_dory]

^^^ if i own it i will give it to you (i dont really care much for the book) kaya lang hiniram lang din ng sister ko yung book. They say that the sequel of the book Wicked is better, i forgot the title kung Son of the Witch yata

Yep. Son Of A Witch. I have that. Kakabili ko lang last night! Wala kasing Wicked sa Fully Booked eh.

nabasa ko na yung script, memorized the soundtrack, and i'm dying to watch it onstage! layo nga lang ng states, but i reaaaaly want to watch it. super.

[cHarL!e's AngEL]

i just watched it in London and absoutely loved it, as in! loved the songs, the writing, the acting, their costumes & props..absolutely everyhing it was so funny & heartwarming at the same time. i have a sudden urge to rewatch The Wizard of Oz tuloy! Adam Garcia played Fiyero and the actress who played Glinda reminded me of Megan Mullally high-pitched din ba voice nung actress who played Glinda on Broadway? maybe she's really supposed to sound perky

[enteng.00]

I saw the show 10 times. 5 times on Broadway (with the OBC, and different replacement batches, once in Seattle (Touring Company), twice in Chicago (sit-down peformance), once in LA (touring but now open ended show) and once in Pittsburgh (touring).

I got 3 shirts, 2 caps, 1 gregory maguire-original book, THE Grimmerie, one OBC Recording, one Full Orchestration Recording, one Bootleg Video (of the whole musical), dozens of wicked-related videos and documentary films, and the most important - I have the whole libretto of the whole musical (the allows me to stage an adaptation of it here - FYI I can not do the reall staging BUT an adaptation would do - say, a university production....bwahahaha!)

would that certify me to be the biggest pinoy fan of Wicked? But anyhow, i confessed, I am!

[cHarL!e's AngEL]

^ you probably are

me and my most favorite Elphaba of all times - Shoshana Bean (1st ever replacement after Idina on broadway).

yup yep! when I saw Sho, it was the 3rd day of Megan being the 2nd replacement for Glinda. Super Hilarious!

Perfect Elphaba and Glinda tandem for me:

Idina Menzel and Jennifer Laura Thompson
Shoshana Bean and Megan Hilty
Eden Espinosa and Kristen Chenoweth (when Eden was still the stand-by of Idina)
Stephanie J. Block and Kendra Kassenbaum.

Meron bang OBC nito dito sa Pinas? Im probably never going to see it pero at least i want the OBC.

[enteng.00]

hi #1_critic, I would gladly give you a copy of the OBC if you don't have one. Me thinks - it's still not available here in our record bars.
