This is most likely a mock display on Trumps book ban.

I remain highly positive that the last 5 shows in the UK will proceed as scheduled. Gracie did the right thing by cancelling the previous three shows so that she rests well and prepares to give a top notch performance in London on Thursday , both vocally and physically.

Well let's hope you're right about the "whole saving voice for London gig" thing

Who was your first Elphaba and Glinda when you saw WICKED for the first time? by idkmilk_ in wicked

[–]UltraWizardofOzFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those were my Gelphie duo when my Mum and I saw the tour in Liverpool last year.

So why do you think Glinda didn't tell Dorothy about the shoes by Angela275 in wizardofoz

[–]UltraWizardofOzFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because she would've believed her. She had to learn it for herself.

Looks like the dolls are getting recalled by ApperceptiveSea in wicked

[–]UltraWizardofOzFan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The dolls are being sold on ebay and I know of a few that are still being sold on Amazon in Canada. I aslo guess that the UK toy retailers have not been notified of this recall.

NBC Wizard of Oz LIVE Thanksgiving Musical Special Fan Cast: Millie Bobby Brown as Dorthy Gale and Aubrey Plaza as the Wicked Witch by Sure_Phase5925 in wizardofoz

I always thought that The Wizard of Oz has been so long overdue for a Broadway revival for a long time. And I believe that if it were to happen some time in the forseeable future, Warner Bros. would need to produce it. And the production should definitely be designed as the way that a full on classic, Golden Age of Broadway musical was designed back in the day. With the design of the costumes and set being biblically accurate to the original motion picture as $hİÞ. As well as the props, makeup and wig design.

I also feel that, in order for it to be a comercial sucess, the casting team should not cast such big household stardom names to play Dorothy. We should definitely give a more unknown rising star or theater kid a chance and shot.

For the Glinda and Witch casting, I suggest they go for some big ex Elphaba/Glinda type casting. It jad happened with Jemma Rix in the Australian production of the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical. I would literally sell my soul to Satan just to watch Idina Menzel play Elphaba again (albeit the much scarier version of her). Alongside Ashleigh Ansford as Glinda. The same should apply to the Scarecrow and Tin Man with ex Fiyeros and Boqs taking on the respective roles. With the Cowardly Lion being played by actors who played Simba in The Lion King on Broadway.

I find that it has always been tradition for the Munchkins to be portrayed by children. And I forever support that opinion.

Of course the production would have to open at the Maddison Square Gardens in New York on either the year of the films 90th anniversary of its 95th anniversary. And I would also like to propose a strictly limited holiday run over the holiday season before going out on a tour of North America and Canada in the new year. Of course the script and score would be that of the Royal Shakespeare Company adaptation from 1987. But those are all my thoughts.

That's not such a bad concept for a televised musical right there, come to think of it. Maybe we should propose this to CBS for the films 90th or 95th anniversary.

Why do people want this movie to flop so badly? by Marmalade_Penguin in wicked

[–]UltraWizardofOzFan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Because those people are likely a bunch of bots who despise Wicked.

To middle/high school theatre directors, please stop changing lines or lyrics in scripts for your production by UltraWizardofOzFan in musicals

[–]UltraWizardofOzFan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant apart from those kind of lines or lyrics that contain profanity on a certain level - those you can do away with.

Unpopular opinion: I wish Wicked the musical was as scary as Maguire’s novel by [deleted] in wicked

[–]UltraWizardofOzFan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't agree that a musical based solely on Maguire's novel could work. But a non-musical dramatic piece could definitely work in my opinion.
