I loved seeing this show with my daughter and wife, we even ran into a some friends of us who were also sitting in the orchestra section. We got luck and got a good deal at A HREF="http://www.goldencircle.net/"Golden Circle/A. Regular tickets were like $100, we paid a little more but got right up close. I would recommend this show to anyone with children between the ages of 7 and up. If they are younger it may go over their head. We had fun.

Few musicals can rival Wicked in terms of song, romance, color, spectacle, and heart. Winnie Holzman’s book sparkles with wit and magic. Stephen Schwartz’s music and lyrics are funny, thrilling, and memorable creations. Wicked’s design team has done dazzling work. Megan Hilty, as Galinda, has created and perfected a performance that is sheer comic brilliance. Caissie Levy captures Elphaba’s cute oddness in the early scenes and transitions effectively into the strong, brave woman that Elphaba becomes. Joanne Worley reinvents the role of sorceress Madame Morrible and John Rubenstein continues to delight as the Wizard, Kristoffer Cusick has Fiyero’s swagger down pat, and cuts a heroic romantic figure opposite Levy in
their love scenes. Wicked is likely to be filling the Pantages for months and even years to come. Read my full review at www.LAStageScene.com.

For those of you who have read the oddly original novel "Wicked", you'll find that this version is much more satisfying, especially when accompanied with memorable tunes and terrific production values. The entire production is Broadway-professional and phenomenal. Balancing between darkness and light, such as the dirty world of politics, the dangers of intolerance and the freedom of realizing your own potential and fulfilling your own dreams, it's a heck of a fun show and well worth every penny. You won't want it to end. You might not know who you like better - Elphaba or Glinda (two very sexy sorceresses, by the way) - but you'll sure never look a witch the same way again. And hopefully not be too quick to judge wickedness. Be sure to catch it soon in a city near you, as it's the hottest ticket in town and selling out fast.

What a fantastic evening of theater... I'm so glad I was able to take my 15-year-old daughter to a show that she absolutely loved! I was a "big hit" daddy! The audience loved the show -- the talent is INCREDIBLE -- only wish we had more "Broadway theaters" here in L.A.!!! Definitely worth the price of tickets! Highly recommended!!!

This was one of the most enjoyable plays I've seen in a long time. Eden Espinosa and Megan Hilty were fantastic in the lead roles of Elphaba and Glinda. Engrossing story, beautiful costumes, gorgeous sets - this musical had everything. This is the second time I've seen Wicked (I saw it a couple of years ago during its first run at the Pantages), and I liked it even more this time around. The cast received a well-deserved standing ovation. Highly recommended!
