Instead, you can catch Menzel next season in her first Broadway appearance in a decade (since the forgettable musical “If/Then”) in “Redwood,” a new musical
Had it not taken two decades to develop and produce the film adaptation of “Wicked,” perhaps Idina Menzel would have received the opportunity to reprise her Tony Award-winning performance as Elphaba.
Lately, I have been wondering whether the production would have succeeded commercially under different circumstances, such as if the New York Times review had been more positive, if it had not opened in a season that was already crowded with revivals, if it had a star performer in the cast, and if the production was more transformative or newsworthy in nature.
In the meantime, if you are interested, you have a few chances left to check out an excellent production of “Tommy.”
