Why did they make it look like Ksi vs Tom holland like look at the theater outside looks like a ufc fight

There is an excellent video available that features the Wicked movie production designer Nathan Crowley showing how the sets were designed and the concept behind the production, well worth a watch on the Architectural Digest channel. th-cam.com/video/4Qp4tLTrX6A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=kgLN5KtPP_SnWjJ1

Thanks for your review! As a musical fan I was so unsure if I should go since there have been so many "meh" examples of movie adaptations of musicals, now I have my green light xD It sounds like Cynthia's screen acting is as stunning as her stage one (I only knew her as a stage actress before the movie). These two are so different but wow she slays

I watched Wicked the movie in IMAX yesterday afternoon, the film is visually spectacular well worth a watch. Having seen the stage show in London this is an excellent film version, great cast, incredible sets, really superb production 😀🎵🍿

Surprised that you didn't pick any of the classic old musicals.

For me it was love at first site. This is the best show ever. The feelings this gave was insane

Notice how all the MEN covered their private area before they bowed 🧐

Do you know the name of the song that played in the end?

Damn such a shame. If you HAVE to digest and force yourself to like a production LATER rather than in that very moment, then that in itself is a tragedy and not a good show at all. One expects to be blown away in the moment of watching a show. Thanks for the heads up! ✌️

Very disappointed with the producers and theater for cancelling shows after tickets were sold. Unprofessional and unacceptable. A pox on all their houses!

I saw the West End production and it was ok, but I was also not blown away. Saw the production on Broadway last weekend and I cannot emphasize enough how much better it was. Talent, band, set, all aspects were higher production value in New York.

Can't wait to see it...

I went to see A Christmas Carol at the Old Vic and loved it! More impressions here ➡ th-cam.com/video/_WO9BrnuxeQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=WZWfRh8GEHtgU1o7 🎭

Would you like more Christmas recommendations? 🎄 Head this way ➡ th-cam.com/video/DyFiNY7WlQU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZXQ4iM5DjveSbwQl ☺

Thank you for this thoughtful review. I live in the States and won't be able to attend. Can you tell me where you found all this footage? Amazing! 🎉

Luv that theater.

Great atmosphere though I wanted more haunting quality from the ghosts

For being a bit of A Christmas Carol officiando, simply the best Christmas Carol out. Got tickets to see it on Friday week having seen the same production on at least 3 of previous Christmases. Excluding A Muppet Christmas Carol (obviously!) and honourable mentions for Bolton and Pitlochry (yes I travel that far) best other version I have seen was Tommy Steele as Scrooge in Leslie Bricusse musical 13 years ago !

Did they rap ??

Very unlucky - I’ve lived here 20 years never had any issues coming home late on tube . Sorry you experienced this . But any big city there are risks with dodgy people. Those girls should be ashamed- scum .

Danny ❤❤❤🎉

I went to see Matilda, Mean Girls, and Why Am I So Single recently, all great. I’m visually impaired, and I can honestly say that the access hosts at all events were superb too. We do get some large scale theatre here in Ireland but not quite as much as in UK.

That's Mark Henry

Just went to see Les Miserables on Saturday. It was absolutely spectacular thank you for the information you give us on the west end :))) <3

i went for my birthday, it was so good! i met them after at stage door they were so nice ( there was a sign by the stage door saying you could wait there for them to sign your program and get pictures )

I wasn’t going to see this one, but this review convinced me to give it a go. Went last night and loved it. Yes, I cried. Not always a great achievement, tv commercials can make me blubber. But this show definitely moved me. The music was amazing, it almost never stopped. That must be the hardest working cast in the West End. It was giving me come from away vibes and then they gave me a little promotional button as I was leaving, just like they did at Come From Away.

I went to see it a few weeks ago for one of the trial runs and I was blown away by how talented each member of the cast was in so many different ways. It is one of the best shows I’ve ever seen on the west end. Beautiful done, you have got to go and see it if you appreciate heart-warming, charming and uplifting theatre. I cannot recommend it enough.

I went Nov 1st it was so good

It was poor.

Saw this yesterday and It was excellent. The songs, the clothes and the cast!

I saw and thoroughly enjoyed this play. As an avid theater goer (minimum of 3 plays per week), I was deeply moved. I highly recommend "Hills of California".

Dear Kristina, are you Mormon?. I went to see the musical the book of mormon. Its was wery interesting. 👏👏💫

Not sure why it is advertised as a musical when it is in fact more a concert than a musical.

I loved Benjamin Button musical. As a foreigner, who lives in London for the last 30 years, it was also easy to follow and understand. And I think for a first time, I preferred theatre adaption of the novella than the movie.

I saw it a few weeks ago. It is very good and definitely worth seeing. Favourite song- The Moon and the River

Would love to see this. Is there a realistic chance that this will be extended until the end of May? At least, there isn‘t anything else planned after that in the Ambassadors Theatre.

Can’t disagree more. There was no clear storyline and lacked any explanation of the characters or the plot, with too many metaphors. The music was good but quite monotonous and some clear talent in the company. Nothing stuck out or connected with me and I was lost, it was quite tedious and unmemorable. Left after the first half

For me….this musical, is absolutely brilliant….loved it! Probably the best & most memorable shows. 10/10

When I heard they were going to make a musical, my first thought was DO-NOT-TOUCH-THAT-MOVIE!!! But… I was there last week at the opening night in the Dominion Theatre and I must say I was very pleasantly surprised. I fully agree the cast is excellent, staging and set design top, outfits top. Regarding music: some numbers (e.g. I only love you for your body) are 100% Elton-style, others may be more difficult to be recognized as his compositions. The refrain of the number „Runway“ sung by Emily reminds me of „Somewhere“ from West Side Story - I really hope it‘s not going to turn out to be a plagiarism… Regarding singing: generally very good, except the high note at the end of The Devil wears Prada (the ball scene) sung by someone from the cast and which was totally off-pitch/flat and really hurt my ears. They should work a bit more on that one with their vocal coach. I was also glad that they kept a lot of the original text from the movie. Especially Miranda’s famous cerulean-monologue was kept almost in its entirety. However, I was missing the equally famous „Florals? For spring?! Groundbreaking!“ Also, they added some additional story lines like Emily‘s flirting with the nurses in the hospital where she is hospitalized following her accident (Bon Voyage). This is something which is not in the original movie but nevertheless a good idea as an 11 o‘clock number. Overall, a very positive experience.

Did they make them gay?

I saw the show in May and found the Fates distracting from the entire production. The Fates are, from mythology, three goddesses who roughly look the same (beautiful) but have different functions...but the emphasis is trio. In this production, the Fates were straight out of the Sesame Street vignette that one of these things does not belong together. The production had two women, roughly the same size, with the third the size and height of the other two...together. it does not matter if s/he were a very large woman, a trans woman, or a man in drag....it was distracting from the entire production. The Fates were background singers...both figuratively for the play and literally. The size discrepancy added no value to the production. Only detracted

Thank you for this!!!

I'm excited, Shaina writes incredible lyrics and the music by Elton John there's really not much to say! im sure the music will be amazing!
