Hello, everyone!
I must tell you all about my day. Today, I went to go see a matinee performance of one of the greatest Broadway musicals ever…WICKED!! That’s right, I finally went to see the show, Wicked! ^_^ It was exciting, magical, and thought-provoking. You really see things differently in the World of Oz after you see this show.
The two main cast included; Jennifer DiNola as Elphaba (who played her on Broadway and Chicago after the great Idina Menzel) and Hayley Podschun as Glinda. I loved Jennifer’s performance as Elphie, it’s pretty close to Idina’s performance (in my humble opinion). The sets were extravagant, the music and songs were awesome, and the choreography was pretty good. I’d go over the plot, but I don’t want to give away any spoilers. =p
Anyway, I drove up to the Robinson Center Music Hall where it was showing in Little Rock, Arkansas. However, I did not go to the show alone, my cousin came along because she wanted to see the show as well. =) When we got there, we went upstairs and found our seats up in the balcony (we could only spend so much for seats, because of how expensive they were). The First Act finale was just a MILLION TIMES BETTER seeing it live! ^_^ If any of you ever get the chance, I beg you…GO SEE THIS SHOW!!! This is how I would describe my entire experience; When you go in to see the show, you will never be the same coming out.
