I’ve had the privilege of seeing Wicked twice now, once in 2008 in Dallas, and again in 2017 on Broadway. I didn’t remember from seeing it the first time that one of the monkeys took flight above the audience, either bc of time gap between attended performances or bc I was in the rear mezzanine the first time. However, I sat 3rd row from the stage when seeing it last year on Broadway, and was in total awe of the Gorgeous and intricate detailing in the monkey costumes. Then that monkey took flight. It caught me off guard and startled me to the point I felt I almost left a puddle under my seat. I still laugh at myself for being so jumpy, but Oz certainly has a way of leaving a mark on everyone who visits in some capacity.
@OfficialWICKED I learned that there is so much work put into an effect. It's so amazing,so much effort was put into disguising the creatures in oz grew the wings! Outstanding work!
Going to see this for the second time with my school at the end of January. (: Now that I know the behind the scenes stuff it'll be interesting to watch it again.
WICKED IS COMING TO ST. LOUIS!! SQUEEEEE!!!!! Sorry. I might see it. I think it's about time I did. I think I might see it around Christmas-time, which is when the show is coming.
@outlanderfrog you are correct that he was in a very porter musical however you are mistaken he has appeared on broadway since being on glee, he started in the musical "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" for a limited engagement, ironically replacing Daniel Radcliffe. I would suggest reading up on your facts next time;-)
@iPatxx We look forward to seeing you in January for your second visit. There is so much to learn about the world of WICKED. Have you seen our other Behind The Emerald Curtain episodes?

@OfficialWICKED Hah I've seen them all!! I'm trying so hard not to ruin the show for the kids in TV class. Buuuuut it's so hard not to sing all the songs and talk about Wicked when you're a big fan of the show. Gahh can't January just come already?!!? xD

The monkeys don't fly above the audience on the Wicked tour so you were rightfully surprised.
Jonathan, I applaud whatever you're doing to get that butt.

No, he's never been in Wicked, and only on Broadway once.. But he was Harry Potter in "A Very Potter Musical."
