Addie Ellicott @aciddropwriting.bsky.social · 16/04/2026Fun fact! If altos rehearse a line where they sing the same note 16 times in a row, the musical director *must* say “that was a very alto line.” If not, the muses curse them to seven years of having one singer come in prematurely at every performance. 010

Addie Ellicott @aciddropwriting.bsky.social · 16/02/2026Listened to “The Long Day Closes” on repeat all day while I try to catch up on my choir’s repertoire. Only occurred to me much later that 8-hours straight listening to a song about death might be a little morbid… 000
Addie Ellicott @aciddropwriting.bsky.social · 03/12/2025Like HOW did you get everyone to suddenly be happy with talking animals in their midst? What about the witch-hunting mob? Could we not have a montage hinting that social change required work? Collaboration? It took more than one GOOD person in power to fix the problem of those two WICKED people? 010
Addie Ellicott @aciddropwriting.bsky.social · 03/12/2025Ok with that off my chest maybe I can go write. 000
Addie Ellicott @aciddropwriting.bsky.social · 03/12/2025At least the end of part one only messed up Defying Gravity (it’s a ballad, it must build to its crescendo, not be constantly interrupted by exposition) 010
Addie Ellicott @aciddropwriting.bsky.social · 03/12/2025We have a cult of personality around Glinda. Instead of locking up animals, we’re locking up Madame Morrible. Nothing changes 200

The movie dispels the uncertainty. Instead of cult of personality around the wizard, 4/? 100
Addie Ellicott @aciddropwriting.bsky.social · 03/12/20253) while the character beats were spot on and made me cry at all the appropriate points, they done fucked up the political themes. Like the musical, there’s a big focus on propaganda, cults of personality and weaponising hate against minorities (i.e. fascism) 3/? 100
Addie Ellicott @aciddropwriting.bsky.social · 03/12/20252) like part 1, this move succeeded in making Fiyero a viable love interest with depth. In the musical he comes across as an intermediary for Elphie and Glinda to project their very gay feelings onto for the sake of making the mostly straight audience comfortable. 2/? 100
Addie Ellicott @aciddropwriting.bsky.social · 03/12/2025Ok, my not particularly deep or original Wicked: For Good thoughts for as long as my social media app limits allow me to rant. Spoilers ahead if you care about those things. 1) Elphie and Glinda’s final scene was perfect. Getting to say “I love you”, Glinda’s reaction to it all, no notes. 1/? 200
