Musicals Review:

Wicked
I went to see Wicked last night in the West End of London! I've been a massive fan for ages, knowing every lyric and the whole story line backwards and I had extremely high expectations from my favourite musical... and I was blown away by Alexia Khadime and Diana Pilkintons amazing performance and the quality of costumes and set design, not to mention the fabulous orchestra, the rest of the cast and the amazing score and songs by Stephen Schwartz, I can't wait to read Gregory McGuires novel! It forfilled every one of my expectations and was a hundred times better than the outstanding CD with Idina Menzel and Christine Chenoweth, there was so much more emotion and emphasis, the whole story really came together! 5 star! *****
