For this week’s main podcast review, I am joined by Ema Sasic, Dan Bayer, Lauren LaMagna, Daniel Howat & Alyssa Christian to review and discuss the long-anticipated Broadway-to-film adaptation of “Wicked” starring Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Bowen Yang, Marissa Bode, Peter Dinklage, Michelle Yeoh & Jeff Goldblum. “In The Heights” director Jon M. Chu has finally given us the popular first half of the story fans have been waiting for over twenty years to see on the big screen, and thank goodness it couldn’t have come at a more relevant time in our lives. What did we think of it? Tune in as we discuss the musical numbers, performances, adaptation, direction, craftsmanship, awards season chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening. We hope you’re happy!
