Fabulous - I love it, been a few times.

MaryAnnSingleton · 21/06/2008 18:17

no, but they rave about it on BBC Radio London

Went to see it last week and it's the best musical I've ever seen. The music, acting and special effects are superb. My seats were £60 and worth every penny.

Fantastic

smittenkitten · 21/06/2008 19:37

went a few weeks ago. reminded me how good live theatre can be! I think the quality of the songs varies but there are some stand outs and the people we saw were amazing - hair stood up on th back of my neck!

Brilliant. My second fave show I have seen (Chicago was first!)

Love2bake · 22/06/2008 09:44

Sounds like I need to get some tickets!

sounds great, where can i get really good seats for cheap prices?

Gobbledigook · 25/07/2008 14:54

Yes I have - twice - it is absolutely fantastic and I play the CD in my car all the time!

I would go again like a shot.

Although Kerry Ellis is leaving in July - not sure waht date - she is amazing as Elphaba. I don't know who is taking over.

Diane Pilkington is fabbo as Galinda/Glinda too.

I went last night and I loved it.

Aarrgghh · 03/08/2008 20:12

I love it - my friend was in the chorus and she has just got the lead in Grease!

Defying Gravity is one of my favourite songs from any musical....

What age kids would it be suitable for? DD1 (a precocious 4.5y) is a Wizard of Oz addict - would it be over her head/too scary?

christywhisty · 14/08/2008 00:55

The recommended age limit is 8 plus. It's not really aimed at children so would probably be over her head. My dcs were just 9 and 11 when we saw it 2 years ago and they loved it. My DD was obsessed with it for months afterwards. DH wants to see it again.

MrsBates · 14/08/2008 01:28

Love it. DD soon to be 5 wants to go. Knows the whole soundtrack and is obsessed with Elphaba. Can't remember how explicit the first bit is - the conception of Elphaba bit. Defying Gravity - ooh spine tingler.

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 14/08/2008 01:44

It's really fab. My second favourite too.

My first favourite is The Producers. It was so good.

I loved Chicago too but I was extremely drunk (we went on a whim, mid afternoon piss up) and have seen the films too many times.
