'Twas as "wicked" as I remember...

Yup, I saw Wicked. And yup, it was pretty much amazing. Even with our craptastic seats (seriously, who's idea was it to install a third balcony in a theater), it was a fantastic show.

What to say about it? Well, it was almost embarrassingly better than the show that inspired it. (Is it a crime to think The Wizard of Oz is kind of lame? I mean yeah, it's a classic but...) It's sweet, it's funny, and near heartbreaking in some places. It gives the original story depth and character, something I always felt it lacked.

I loved Wicked!! So amazing!! I really admire people in musical theatre- they can't have mess ups and do-overs like recording artists do.
