Last night I went to see Wicked with
pink_soprano. I hadn't been insanely eager to see it, but I liked the two songs I had heard and I haven't been to a show in ages, and since everyone was talking about how awesome it was I thought why not? And just...wow. It was amazing, clever and heartbreaking and exciting and funny and everything I love about musicals and I loved it. We had the understudy playing Elphaba and she was just AMAZING. What an incredible voice!
I cried. Several times. I kind of always do that with live music, but there were some seriously emotional moments. I also knew almost nothing about the plot and had no idea how it was going to end, so that was extra exciting. I don't think I've ever been to a show where I didn't already know the story.
Anyway, it was great, and if you've been thinking about seeing it but haven't yet, I urge you to do so.
