Thread: WHOA! Had to do a double take today ...

Tweet

Exhausted from a 26 hour trip from Ca to Boeblingen, Germany (work), after checking in at the hotel, I parked the rental car in the underground parking lot, then walked inside and hit the elevator button. Pretty slow on the uptake by this time, I spun around to take in what had appeared (out of the corner of my eye) to be an elaborate August Halloween display in a large glass display case in the elevator loby here in Germany.

As my time-zoned-out wits began to focus, I looked at the center of all the little witches and cauldrons and other stuff, to see a poster promoting the play "Wicked.' Duh.

ooooooooooooooooh daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. I SO wish I could see that. It would be nice if they'd sell the foreign merchandise online especially the programs but they don't. A friend of mine copied the German CD for me and the cast is AWESOME. And Wicked can be very Halloween. There's witches and magic and it opened on October 30th. *sigh* me loves Wicked. *points to avatar*

Oh I agree!!! I saw it in May (my friend took me for my birthday) and again in June (I took a different friend for HER birthday) and it was incredible both times. Gotta love it!!

Did you see it at the Pantages? soooooo jealous. I'd have loved to see the cast there. I'm such a Wicked geek.

I bought my wife tickets to Wicked for Christmas. She took her sister. I'm not crazy about musicals, so I didn't protest. She's nuts about the Wizzard of Oz but didn't rave about Wicked.

I eat, sleep, breathe Wizard of Oz and I adore Wicked to no end. I can't stand musicals, except for a select few. Wicked fits more into pop than what I think would be typical musical fare. I'm hoping I get to see the show again next year when the tour comes back to town. OEJ adores Wicked to no end. He gets sick of all the other Oz I put him through on a daily basis sometimes, but not Wicked.

I would freak out if i got to see the in Germany! It's soooo cool!

Pictures!!!!!

Any way you're going to be able to see it while you're there? Have seen it twice (both in CHI), and it was awesome!

I would LOVE to see it in Germany. The Elphaba there is incredible! One of the best I've heard. Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing all of the foreign productions.

Okay you guys made me do it.......Defying Gravity on German TV. YouTube - Wicked Germany - Frei und Schwerelos (sing-mit)

Best Wicked trailer ever......You see the German cast but it's been dubbed with the American (Idina Menzel) Defying Gravity
YouTube - German Wicked Trailer (With English Song)
