the broadway production opened on october 30, 2003, to mixed to positive reviews from theatre critics. chenoweth received nearly unanimous praise for her performances as glinda while menzel received mixed-to-positive reviews for her performance as elphaba. both "usa today" and "time magazine" gave the broadway production of "wicked" very positive reviews, with richard zoglin of "time" saying, "if every musical had a brain, a heart and the courage of "wicked", broadway really would be a magical place." elysa gardner of "usa today" described it as "the most complete, and completely satisfying, new musical i've come across in a long time." conversely, ben brantley in the "new york times" loved the production but panned the show itself, calling it a "sermon" that "so overplays its hand that it seriously dilutes its power," with a "generic" score. he noted that glinda is such a showy role that the audience ends up rooting for her rather than the "surprisingly colorless" elphaba, who is "nominally" the hero. despite these mixed reviews, interest in "wicked" spread quickly by word-of-mouth, leading to record-breaking success at the box office, as described below. speaking to "the arizona republic" in 2006, schwartz commented, "what can i say? reviews are reviews... i know we divided the critics. we didn't divide the audience, and that's what counts."
