"None of it seems to matter anymore." I had been counting down the days to see Wicked for 6 months. And...now it's all over :( It did not hit me that I was seeing the show until we walked into the Capitol Theater and saw the stage set for the first scene; a glowing map of Oz! It was an amazing show overall--it is Broadway after all. We saw the understudies for three of the leads. Glinda the good witch, Fiyero the heartthrob of the show, and Boq the eventual Tin Man. Marissa Lupp played Glinda and she is an amazing actress. Her voice could have been more impressive--hence her part as the Stand By. The set, costumes, lights and props were exact as they are in New York. It was definitely a great Broadway Tour. I can't believe I had the chance to see it!!!!! Go see it if you get the chance!!!!!!!

I am so glad you enjoyed the show Kyle! I have never seen it, but I hope to some day, I like the music and the story seems pretty cool. Isn't professional theater awesome! Mainly the budget they have to create such a visual feast with the sets, lights and costumes. I have found though that the talent is pretty amazing for the most part, but I still see regional and community talent that is just as good. Just goes to show that not ALL the best talent is working professionally. :)
Wicked was so amazing! I totally agree with you there. Now we need to plan a trip to Disneyland in the next few years so we have something to look forward to besides an awesome summer.
