Vicki Blight, Absolute Radio
"...London's hottest hit just got even hotter with an amazing new cast. Wicked is a fantastic night out, YOU'LL BE SPELLBOUND!..."
Jamie Crick, Classic FM
".....WICKED is still looking and sounding spectacular with its dynamic new cast. Rachel Tucker is a powerhouse Elphaba, Louise Dearman just perfect as Glinda and Lee Mead makes a dashing Fiyero. With its remarkable set of songs, now familiar to the 'Glee' generation, WICKED is still A MUSICAL EXPERIENCE YOU ABSOLUTELY SHOULD NOT MISS...."
Paul Phear, Magic 105.4FM
"....If I'm not careful, I'll turn into an incurable Wickimaniac! The fact is that WICKED always was, and always will be, nothing less than A MAGICAL MUSICAL MASTERPIECE that gets right under your skin - and the spellbinding new cast ensure that it's as fresh (and as green) as the day it opened...."
Roger Foss, LBC 97.3FM
"RACHEL TUCKER IS NOTHING SHORT OF BRILLIANT AS ELPHABA. She has a commanding stage presence and radiates star quality. She soared above the stage and brought the house down with one of the most powerful versions of Defying Gravity I've ever had the pleasure to witness. Her performance is not only powerfully sung but beautifully acted. Leading the cast of the West End's biggest musical is where Rachel Tucker truly belongs."
Katherine Redmond, Indielondon.co.uk
"... RACHEL TUCKER AND LOUISE DEARMAN SIZZLE WITH BRILLIANCE. I had a great night. Really uplifting..."
Paul Coia, Smooth Radio
"...LOUISE DEARMAN IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. The show is extraordinary and its success is a great tribute to the West End. GO AGAIN AND AGAIN - IT'S INCREDIBLE..."
Andrew Pierce, LBC 97.3 FM
"LEE MEAD IS SIMPLY WICKED!"
