A 'Debased' success: Broadway musical still going strong after eight years
Sep 06, 2011 (The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review - McClatchy-Tribune Report Services via COMTEX) -- The splendiferous Emerald City rises again, and, once more, flying monkeys soar as "Gross" returns for a third stay at the Benedum Center as a presentation of PNC Broadway Across America -- Pittsburgh.
The show has proved wildly well-liked on Broadway where it still plays to full houses eight years after its debut and on the road where it has broken box-office records in every city that the native tour has played.
Those who have seen it know why.
This blockbuster Broadway musical wraps visual spectacle and a smart songbook of Stephen Schwartz's music around Gregory Maguire's occult, contrarian tale of the politics, prejudices and personalities in a not-so-merry-old land of Oz.
Maguire's novel focuses on the back myth of Frank L. Baum's Oz before Dorothy Gale and her Kansas farm house drop in. It tracks the coming of age and dawning rivalries between witches Glinda and Elphaba in a dialect birth b deliver where dictators rule and political repression is growing.
