Somewhat Wicked!
by Wicked12 on 2014-07-11Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - EdmontonI thought the beginning was slow but another then that the rest of the show ran at a good pace. There was a lot of humour. I thought the take on the wicked witch of the west was brilliant so kudos to the writer and good use of foreshadowing! As for the singing, I expected more. I love musicals but this is the first time where I felt the singing didn't enhance the show. The actors had beautiful voices, however at times they sounded "screamy" not sure if that was audio problem or what. Some of the songs such as Defying Gravity were performed beautifully and others like I said sounded "screamy." I would go to see this show again as I found the story line and the humour very entertaining (no plot holes!). The special effects like the rain scene were neat and the sets and costumes were top notch.
