A "Wicked" Time!

We just got home from seeing this:
It was amazing and I highly recommend it to any of you who get the chance to definitely take it.

This song was my favorite:Just terrific. And is it just me or do any of you get choked up at the standing ovation for the amazing performers? Maybe it's just pregnancy hormones, but I had to hold back the tears when Glinda and Elphaba came out on stage for the curtain call and the crowd jumped to their feet. Tell me I'm not the only one!! Awesome!

Just a head's up...when 7 months pregnant, opt for the comfy shoes and not the cute ones! It didn't spoil the evening, though, just the walk back to the car!

I don't think you're the only one. And happy birthday to Jesse.

I saw this in LA a few years ago. It was great! This is one of my favorite songs also, it still brings tears to my eyes so I don't think it is the pregnancy hormones.

I don't think its the pg hormones, either. I saw Wicked before I was pg and still got choked up. Actually, I've been crying at standing ovations (even for Jr. high productions!) for about 15 years now--it can be a little embarrassing, but something about people getting recognized for their hardwork after a performance just does it for me every single time. Or maybe I'm crying because that's a talent I wish I had ;)

Oh, I can't wait to see this someday... hopefully soon. So glad you got to go.

one of my favorites...I wanted to get up on stage and dance and sing with them! But that would have ruined the show!

I LOVE Wicked and I get chocked up easily, too and I haven't been pregnant for 9 1/2 years :)
