Wicked!!!
*Does Happy Dance*

Went to se Wicked in Cleveland today. It was totally awesome! I absolutely loved it! The set was gorgeous, the costumes were cool, and the singing was wonderful. The woman who plays Elphaba was not playing her that night, so the understudy took over, and she was wonderful. The woman who played G(a)linda was even more blonde-ish sounding than Kristin Chenoweth. I couldn't really see very well, since our seats were 3 rows from the back of the balcony, but I didn't care. It's Wicked! There was only one snafu that everyone could tell. During Popular "Glinda", trying to get the wand to wrok, wacked it onto the bed. The top star part flew off towards backstage. Both women looked at it and burst out laughing. Then "Glinda" said something along the lines of "Well, this one's broken" and chucked it over her sholder offstage. It was hilarious, and I admire them for their recovery. I cried during For Good but not for the reason most people would think(thanks Autumn). Not everything was good though. My eyes hurt from squinting, and the two girls in front of me didn't appreciate Wicked. The one actually fell asleep during the first act! Those were seats wasted. None of that could bring the night down though. It was wonderful, and now I can say I've seen 2 broadway shows. OK, they were both touring companies, but my count is up to two (Wicked and Cats). O Happy Days!
