A "Wicked" Trip to Chicago!!
So if you EVER get a chance to see this show...you just have to go!! It was so incredible that it's hard to describe. We had seats in the 2nd row so I could see all the actors faces and expressions. The girls playing the parts of Glinda (the good witch) and Elphaba (the wicked witch of the East) were both amazing! The 1st act ends with the song "Defying Gravity". This is the part of the musical when Elphaba decides to give in to her wicked side. The song itself is so moving and powerful...so take that and add the witch being raised up in the air ...center stage and her black dress and cape being blown and FILLING the entire stage...and it was enough to send me into an emotional high and I just cried through the song! UNBELIEVABLE...that's all I can say! Anyway, there's my plug for "Wicked"! It was a great trip...unforgettable! Thanks YO's! I love you guys!
