Wicked!
The
magical hit musical, Wicked, is a collision of Legally Blonde and Harry Potter
with more singing, less commotion and a foolish old, wonderful wizard instead
of an intimidating dark lord.
Since
the 20th of September 2014, Wicked has transformed the Capitol Theatre
in Sydney into the Land of Oz. The well-known musical stars Lucy Durack, Jemma
Rix and Steve Danielsen, who stole the show with their talents. Wicked traces
the secret girlhood friendship between the two witches from the Wizard Of Oz.
Elphaba, the outcast green-tinged child becomes the Wicked Witch of the West,
while her pretty, popular rival, Galinda, grows up to be Glinda the Good.
This
unlikely relationship that evolves from loathing to loving, provides an
emotional core to the story, stripping all the complexities from the story and
leaving the audience sympathetic to the two girls. The Wizard Of Oz is like the
sequel to Wicked; once you have seen Wicked, the Wizard Of Oz makes a lot more
sense.
So,
make sure you are one of the many in the audience of this amazing musical. It
is “The
Deļ¬ning Musical of the Decade” - The New York Times. Grab your tickets and head
to the Land of Oz to experience the magical and enticing musical.
