I finally saw it in November in Nashville after years of just listening to the soundtrack. I was BLOWN AWAY. It got beaten out for the Tony that year by Avenue Q, which I saw in NYC about six years ago.
It's an interesting comparison - the music for both is amazing, the stories couldn't be more different, and Avenue Q is so minimalist compared to Wicked.
It was nice to finally have seen both. I will say that Wicked works well in a larger theatre in a way that Avenue Q wouldn't.
Of course, two each her own - my sister saw the Las Vegas production of Q and was underwhelmed. My mother and father saw an Atlanta community theater production of it and fell in love with it.
You never know...
