I just got back from one of the greatest musicals ever made as far as I'm concerned xD

The moving Broadway cast of Wicked has been at the local theater for the past 3 weeks, and I went to see it tonight with my mother, and I am SO glad I did.

It. Was. AMAZING. I enjoyed it so, SO much. Plus our seats were epic, I swear we were no more than 15 feet back from the main stage, and from where we were sitting we could see the entire span of the stage. It was great.

The singers were truly remarkable, there was one point where my mother leaned over to me and went "Is this really live?! Are you sure this wasn't pre-recorded? O_O" because honestly, it sounded better than the pre-recorded soundtrack I had been listening to the past 5 years [the 5th Anniversary Original Cast Recording of Wicked]

Elphaba and Glinda made me laugh with their interactions. Elphaba is such a sarcastic character who didn't let herself be taken down by the harsh words of others, and Glinda.... is just such a dumb blonde, and not very good at all in my opinion xD she was really very selfish, and was the one who pretty much ordered Nessarose's death =/ she was such a tool, though sorta redeemed herself at the very end.

I think personally my favorite speaking part was when Elphaba and Glinda were in the cornfield and had their catfight over Fiyero and started bitchslapping the shit outta eachother before the guards showed up xD Favorite song is till a tie between "No Good Deed" and "Defying Gravity"

Also, I have a coffee mug that I bought after the show It has Elphaba and Glinda's faces on it, as well as the "Wicked" logo <3 Love it. I had so much fun, and am so happy I got to see the show, and would defenetly recomend it to anyone who is a fan of the Wizard of Oz

And as a final thought, I really hate the Wizard =/ Such a key.

Now for me to pass out. Night~
