I saw the musical Wicked in Chicago over the weekend. I loved it. I'd highly recommend it. I loved the story and the singing. FYI though - I did not read the book, but several women in the bathroom (during intermission) were saying they read the book beforehand and it was very different from the musical..some of them didn't care for the musical after reading the book - I guess it strayed from the book. Anyhow, I loved it and would recommend it to any of you - definitely worth seeing!
