Dutch Musical Wicked review
Dear
readers,
On Saturday
the 14th of July I went to the musical Wicked with my parents. I had really
been looking forward to this show as I had some raving reviews on the West End
version. Needless to say, the Dutch version would undoubtedly be a little
different, but usually the Dutch adaptations are very good as well.
When you
enter the room you are confronted with the following decor:
(sorry for the bad quality: I took this picture with my phone)
I really
thought it was highly impressive and it immediately grabs your attention. The
rest of the decor that is used during the show is subtle without too many embellishments.
The plot of
the musical relates the story on how the girl Elphaba became the Wicked Witch
of the West. I really do not want to give anything away on the plot, because it
is very well thought out and because I think people will be able to enjoy the
show more if they do not know the entire story. Just prepare yourself for a few
very interesting twists! :D Though I would strongly advice against taking
children under 9 years old to this musical, as some parts are rather frightening.
