the wicked movie is like infinity war and endgame for theatre kids because what the fuck do you mean i have to wait a YEAR for the rest

I’m glad through Jonathan Bailey’s performance we are finally getting Fiyero as the bisexual disaster he truly is

Before Wicked (the movie) arrives, I wanted to give a shout-out to the people who through the years paid good money to go watch Wicked (the musical) bringing a camera and bootlegging/sharing the shit out of it.

Y'all's wobbly, out of focus recordings that kept appearing and disappearing over the years were the only way many people got to experience the musical before being able to see it as intended.

Especially, thank you to whoever went to that one in Chicago in 2008 and spent a lot of time zooming in/out to better show the actors' facial expressions.

Doing so, they managed to miss 100% of Elphaba's ascent at the end of Defying Gravity and when I finally went to see it at the theatre (in London, the first of five times), that moment was still an unexpected surprise.

It was a big weekend for theatre kids (me)

[friendofmossandbones]

I saw Wicked around noon so I wasn't expecting a lot of kids to be there, but 1) a lot of parents clearly pulled their theater kids out of school for a Fun Day, which I love, and 2) there were these two little girls sitting next to me that pulled the seat recliners out as far as it would go, and then they laid on their stomachs kicking their feet in the air the whole movie, and it was the cutest thing I've ever seen

wicked is political. wicked's plot is a political one. elphaba's whole character revolves around the fact that she can't stand injustice towards other people / species. Everything to do with the Wizard and how Elphaba is villainised IS POLITICAL! you can't take politics out of Wicked.

wicked 100% justified its length btw. this is one of those rare times when i actually, genuinely believe it was done for the good of the movie. it doesn't drag at all. if you wanted to cut anything, you might have to start cutting songs.

Thank you Jonathan Bailey for being the perfect Fiyero. The right blend of Romantic Disney Prince, and Slut.

how am i supposed to be normal about elphaba reading glinda's note saying she hopes she gets all her heart desires & then immediately asking glinda to go to oz with her
