My husband and I really enjoyed the performance! We had great seats with a perfect view of the stage! The actress (Erin Mackey) was fantastic as 'Glinda'. This charactar made the show so entertaining. We loved her one-liners! (Teal Wicks) was great as 'Elphaba'! It was great to see a standing ovation for her "transformation". I loved the ending! The song "Popular" is still running through my head....Written on Oct 03 2008
I will honestly say that the surrounding area of the Pantages was not so great. Once it became dark, I started to worry about our car, the homeless and other scarier people walking around Hollywood Blvd. There is also not very many nice restaurants near the venue. Be prepared to walk a few blocks away.
I was a little annoyed when the staff let all the late comers find their seats during one of Glinda's musical number. It was hard to see around people trying to get to their seats and thought that this was very rude.
Overall, we had a great time and would recommend the performance to all before the show run ends!

I am usually not a big fan of Broadway and I often resist things that are this popular.Written on Oct 31 2008
That said, I thought Wicked was fantastic. The music was not nearly as formulaic and I thought the songs were both musically and lyrically excellent.
The cast was fabulous and the story is fun. This is something you will be very happy you went to see. Enjoy!

Good show, not great. Don't expect Sondheim quality. That is not a reflection on the production which was well done. The songs were OK nothing particularly outstanding. I thought as a prequel to the Wizard of Oz, it was interesting. I wish the seat I got was a little better. The last row ZZ. Because of the balcony above, part of the highest portion of the stage was blocked from my view. Some of the people in my row traded their seats for better views in the balcony. Only because of the popularity and fanfare surrounding the show did I expect it to be better.Written on May 27 2008

Description
The Los Angeles company of Wicked, Broadway's biggest blockbuster, is now in its second year at the Pantages Theatre.
Wicked tells the untold story of the witches of Oz. Long before Dorothy drops in, two other girls meet in the land of Oz. One, born with emerald-green skin, is smart, fiery and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. Wicked tells the story of their remarkable odyssey, how these two unlikely friends grow to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch.
Based on the novel by Gregory Maguire, Wicked has music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz and book by Winnie Holzman. It is directed by Joe Mantello, with musical staging by Wayne Cilento. Wicked is produced by Marc Platt, Universal Pictures, The Araca Group, Jon B. Platt and David Stone.
Wicked was developed, written and had its earliest readings and workshops in Los Angeles. It is now truly a worldwide phenomenon with four companies in North America - Broadway, Chicago, on national tour, and Los Angeles, as well as productions in London, Tokyo, and Stuttgart, and a fourth international production opening next summer in Melbourne. The Grammy Award-winning (Best Musical Show Album) original cast recording of Wicked has been certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), for sales of more than one million copies.
