Wicked is more than just a musical nor is it your average fairy tale; it's an enchanting reimagining of The Wizard of Oz that delves into the lives of the witches of the West in a witty, heartwarming, and sometimes heartbreaking production that explores of friendship, love, and the power of individuality. The story follows the unlikely friendship between Elphaba, the misunderstood green-skinned witch, and Glinda, the bubbly blonde, as they navigate the complexities of Oz and challenge societal norms to discover the true meaning of good and evil. One of the longest-running shows on Broadway, this production is timeless.

David Cote,
Time Out New York"This musical prequel to The Wizard of Oz addresses surprisingly complex themes, such as standards of beauty, morality and, believe it or not, fighting fascism."
Elysa Gardner,
USA Today"This is the most complete, and completely satisfying, new musical I've come across in a long time."
Molly Marinik and Dan Dinero,
Theatre Is Easy"This musical is full of glitz and is a big Broadway spectacular; it is also a charming story with a wonderfully catchy score. 'Wicked' is satisfying in a sparkly way, and also in a storytelling way."

It's a fabulous show; everyone acts perfectly and sings beautifully too. I liked that before the show started, we could see them setting up the stage. However, I didn't realize until the end that there were headsets for translation—it's a shame that wasn't mentioned beforehand.

Excellent show, professionally staged and the cast is marvelous! I went with my son who is of Cuban heritage but is not familiar with the music, and he loved it!

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Marek Kordasiewicz
H.P. and the Cursed Child is a magic! In full sense of this word. First, because it's a Broadway. Second - from the first step in the Lyric Theatre you feal the atmosphere of secret and great advanture coming. Then third - actors' performance, scenography, special effects, lights, sound, and everything are so impressive, that you won't even notice how almost three hours of performance pass...
I don't regret a single $ spent on flight from Europe and tickets to the show.

Maybe Happy Ending
Sarah Kim
All the theater staff were kind and guided us very attentively, and the audience was also orderly and respectful. Although I already knew what to expect, the perfect harmony of the production, the actors, and the musical numbers made the running time fly by in an instant. I plan to see it several more times in my life, and I’m especially looking forward to watching the Korean version soon.
