ivyficI am extremely late to this train, but I finally saw Wicked on Broadway, through a work event. (Which also meant it was fantastic seats.) I read the book an age ago, but hadn't watched any version of it.
Wow that is an unfocused mess of a musical, isn't it? There is so much plot happening in every scene--and then you hit "Defying Gravity" or "For Good" and tears are streaming down my face and I'm like, this is the best musical ever written.
Also, wow is that incredibly gay.

Then I saw the movie, which covers only the first half of the stage show, and I finally saw what all the fuss was about!
And yes. Very gay.
