Over the Rainbow to Oz

Tweet

When we arrived at the theater to see WICKED last night there was a huge rainbow over the theater. It really set the stage as we walked into the magical world of Oz. The show was absolutely fabulous. The costuming, stage sets and story would have been enough but the music was over the top. I can't tell you how glad I was to have done my homework and gotten familiar with the music. I was equally glad not to have looked at the story for as it unfolded last evening, I was totally engrossed and amazed at what took place. I read as many of the Oz books as I could get my hands on as a child and so all the characters and settings were familiar to me, but this story was totally new and told in such an exciting way. Tickets were twice what Cabaret were but I can see why as it was so much more elaborate. Absolutely stunning. I'm so glad I went. New Years resolution fulfilled for February. (I resolved to do a major event every month this year).
