My big birthday present from Terry was tickets to go see Wicked. I have been wanting to see Wicked for quite some time now. The verdict is in and it is was incredible! I loved it so very much. I love musicals very much. I have been lucky to see quite a few. When I was in high school and early college my grandparents had season tickets to Theater Under the Stars and when they couldn't go I was the lucky recipient several times. My first musical (real musical at the theater) experience was Annie when I was in about the first or second grade. I had seen it many times on TV but my love for musicals grew upon seeing one live. I also loved watching Oklahoma, Sound of Music, and of course Grease. My high school put on Oklahoma and Sound of Music which I of course went to see. I was actually in South Pacific my senior year. That was one of my favorite things I did in high school. It was so much fun. I was just in the chorus but it was a blast. "I'm gonna wash that man right outta my hair"...... oh excuse me, I just took a trip back to 1995. I'm back now. So anyway I have had the pleasure of seeing 42
nd Street, Victor Victoria, Les Miserables (LOVE), Cats (LOVE), Grease (how can you not LOVE), In the Heights (
ok I love them ALL if you really want to know the truth), and now Wicked. I must say that before seeing Wicked, Les
Mis was my favorite. The music is phenomenal. When I was in college at
SFA I would listen to the CD every night before bed to drown out the noise from the porch. LOVE the music. Then there is Cats, great costumes and dancing. But now there is Wicked. I can't express how much I loved this show. I was prepared and downloaded the music beforehand so I already had a couple of favorite songs that I was looking forward to putting into context. I loved how towards the end you started to see how the Wizard of Oz and Dorthy fit into the story. It was pretty much brilliant. The music is so much fun and super catchy. I find myself singing it all the time. I could definitely see it again and not be bored at ALL! This season of TUTS is going to be great. I'm hoping to swing my own set of season tickets?????
