I thought it was amazing, and the music is great! It is NOTHING what you described the book to be. I'm not trying to say you should still see it, but I want to say that it is good and clean because I HAVE seen it! The book sounds ridiculously horrible, though. :(EJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01525030526116612349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36568328.post-80642129703696780982009-01-23T11:09:00.000-08:002009-01-23T11:09:00.000-08:00Sounds GOOD !!!Sounds GOOD !!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36568328.post-4754564559359427282009-01-22T19:38:00.000-08:002009-01-22T19:38:00.000-08:00hey jill!!! you ARE alive! you should call me some...hey jill!!! you ARE alive! you should call me sometime (same old number). i work all week, but we could "do lunch" on a weekend or something.<BR/>jennyshabbyscrapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04954822679733963538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36568328.post-47900776794906822112009-01-22T17:01:00.000-08:002009-01-22T17:01:00.000-08:00Hi I just saw cute Jessica at Barro's she is s...Hi <BR/>I just saw cute Jessica at Barro's she is so cute...

I didn't know about the book until later. I was warned however, before reading it how awful it was and so have stayed far away from the book! However, the musical was FANTASTIC! IT is NOTHING like the book at all...very tame and I have no qualms taking my younger children to see it. The music is awesome too! Sorry you weren't warned about the book. It really is awful that such a wonderful show came from such a horrible book and that people will get taken in to read it unknowingly. Sorry you will miss such a great show! But, good for you for taking a stand!Lori Bottomleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692037095324670378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36568328.post-69631300521775216432009-01-14T17:40:00.000-08:002009-01-14T17:40:00.000-08:00Well, just wanted to say hi & I love you!Well, just wanted to say hi & I love you!ForeverSarahLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02482508851353838077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36568328.post-20531672969154372082009-01-13T15:38:00.000-08:002009-01-13T15:38:00.000-08:00Oh that is awful Jenny.

You did not get far enough in the book (I DON"T BLAME YOU-JUST SAYING) to know the plot of the musical. It skips all that you have mentioned, and focuses on when Elfaba (your green baby) goes away to college. It is a musical based on the PREMISE of the book, the wizard of Oz story from the green witch's point of view. It is NOT a close adaptation of the book itself. Many, many differences!!mamamunizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12392648810192652923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36568328.post-56555316546257590152009-01-10T13:58:00.000-08:002009-01-10T13:58:00.000-08:00Woah Jenny!
