The Metroplolitan Opera has done this a couple of times with live HD broadcasting in movie theatres and that was very successful. They even had a few encore presentations.

In the meantime I'm enjoying some youtube's videos on wicked :-) Yes I was thinking about something they did for Cats, although they could also a musical movie as they did for the Phantom.

I still watch them. I hope they'll do something like that for Wicked some day. I wish they would do it for every show.

I absolutely agree.

I suppose they would have to make Oz a little more like what most people think of OZ looking like. They would have to make it more concrete, but I imagine that it would not be as spectacular as the show because you wouldn't have all the cool lighting and the flying scene would have to be done differently. I think it would be better if they just made a video of the show itself once it goes off broadway, which at this rate will be a long long time from now. Well, Phantom of the Opera worked ok.

Plus, I'm not sure how it will translate to movie. How do you translate the sets to a movie? Harmony, yeh I don’t see them making a movie yet, not with all the tours they are doing…

If I remember right the tour guide said there are rumors of it being turned into a film, but nothing is in the making yet and as long as it continues to expand with tours and such (they now play in LA and London and NYC upon other locations and will probably eventually put one in in Las Vegas) and continue to make money off the broadway production there probably won't be a movie, at least not for a while. I took that tour about a year ago. Anything's possible. I sure would love for them to make a movie of it. I read that they might make a film of Aidia.

There are some rumors flying around about making Wicked into a movie within a year or so, but I have no idea if there is any truth to those rumors. ~Adam Lorenzo, I’m 99% positive that there is no legal full-length video of Wicked available.

Otherwise there's always youtube! By the way, I also bought the book version, but did not care for the style of writing. Great story, just not the book for me. I do love the musical, however! I've grown tired of seeing it live because I've seen it four times now, but I never get tired of the soundtrack! Plus, I'll never forget my first time seeing it when all the audience, including me, gasped when the final twist in the plot came. No spoilers though. You'll have to go see the show for yourself.
