Wicked - Sunday, August 2, 2009
This weekend was... Wicked!
Friday night I saw Wicked the Musical at the Orpheum Theatre in SF with Priscilla and some co-workers. I had heard good things about the show, but I was surprised at how awesome it actually was.
The story was brilliant- it fit very well with the original Oz story, and yet managed to turn all the original perceptions upside-down. The singing and instrumentals were superb, and the lyrics were witty and sophisticated.
The only downside of the night was that we were all the way in the back row of the balcony! But that gives Priscilla and I an excuse to see the show again, this time with orchestra seats, next month. I can't wait. But until then, the next best thing I can do is listen to the Wicked soundtrack... again, and again, and again...
