Great job! What do you think of Wicked? I found it hard to get into, but once they were at school, I really enjoyed it. The musical is amazing too.

[Christine]

I never saw the musical. I do agree that the beginning was slow and I really enjoyed the parts at school. I found the jumping around in time to be a little annoying and I was left a bit unconvinced by the end, but overall I enjoyed it.
