FROM THE FANS:
Wicked was one of the best nights in my wife and I's life. We came to Chicago without our kids and felt like real grown ups. I also feel like songs like "Defy Gravity" changed me "for good". I can't stop listening to the soundtrack. I only wish that the soundtrack was the Chicago cast. We can't wait to take our 7 year old daughter up to Chi Town as she has falling in love with the soundtrack, especially "Popular". Also you should see our little 3 year old sing "Wonderful", he just loves it.
Thank you Chicago Cast, We Love You,
-Brian, Erin & Family
I love Wicked in Chicago because the entire cast is amazing. They put on a great show 8 times a week which takes a ton of energy. After which they are always willing to stop, talk to the fans, and sign autographs at the stage door. I love that the Chicago cast is so down to earth and friendly and they really appreciate their fans.

Wicked took me by surprise. I love musicals but had no idea that this absolute gem was out there. It is magic how a show can transport you to another world, make you care deeply about the characters and leave you wanting to relive the whole experience over again. This all in the space of two and a half hours and because this Chicago ensemble is so talented, hardworking and dedicated.

I love Wicked in Chicago because it was my first Broadway show. I fell in love with the whole idea of Broadway because of Wicked. I identified so much with Elphaba, which is why I loved the show so much.
Erin and Dee were so inspiring and were great! The entire show was amazing! Because of Wicked, I have become a major Broadway fan!

When i went to Chicago in May and saw it, i saw Jenny the understudy. I was looking forward to Dee but jenny was amazing! Kate was Glinda and Michael was Fiyero. They were just amazing! Their voices and acting were so amazing i couldnt describe it! i wanted to come back so badly because sadly i didnt get to go to stage door! :( So im leaving tomorrow (thanksgiving) to go to Chicago again and i hope i get to see Dee. Im also going to stage door this time so i'll get a picture! :)

WICKED CHICAGO CLOSES 1-25-09
Well I sent you my first Wicked memory and it was the first one posted, so now I will send you my last Wicked Chicago memory. We took our 7 year old that loves the sound track to see Wicked and it happened to be Dee's first weekend back with the show. The show was perfect as I expected it to be. I have such an attachment to the story that I cried from the first note to the standing O. Watching my daughter lip sync the words was awesome. After the show we went to the stage door and met a few of the performers, but many didn't come out as we went to the Matinee and they would just relax between shows, but someone told the cast of the many people that were still out there waiting after an hour and a half and then Annaleigh came out and met everyone. She signed my little girls Playbill and took pictures with her and my wife. The magic of Chicago has never failed to move me, and will continue to do so, but the Wicked experience will be dearly missed. It has been said a million times, by millions of fans, but it rings true always, This family has been changed for good. Thank you for this page and please keep it going so that we as Wicked fans might keep in touch and discuss the show.

I was so lucky and blessed to see Wicked on January 8th - my son and his wife bought me two tickets for Christmas, and put them in the book Son of a Witch. I opened my gift and I was like "Oh Cool! I wanted to read this for the longest!" my son then said "open to page 13" and there were the tickets! My daughter and I went to the show, and it was something that will live in our hearts and memory for ever...You guys are so talented, and I have to agree, For Good moved me so much, and made me think of my best friend from childhood...thank you for the privelege of seeing your performance...Good luck on your next endevor!! -Nita Marie
I had the privilege of seeing Wicked in Chicago on December 6th. My Dad had recently passed away and I needed a weekend away. Wicked was the highlight! For Good is a song that makes me think of my Dad and that night it moved me to tears. I loved the show, loved the cast and wish everyone within the best of luck in their new endeavors.
