One Fabulous Musical

Wicked, the untold story of wizard of oz. One of the interesting, eye catching, standing ovation, breath taking show I've seen yet. A must see. This musical is about one girl born with emerald green skin, very intelligent, fiery, misunderstood young lady. The other girl is labeled as the beautiful, ambitious and popular. How ironic that these two people meet and become the best of friends. A little shaky in the beginning of course but later on actually develop a relationship. One grows to be known as the wicked witch of the west and the next becomes Glinda the good.

The Cast members were amazing. Each and every one of them performed with a 100%. I can only imaging how many times they had to rehearse and perform this over again.There voices were strong and beautiful. I couldn't understand how they not once ran out of breath signing those high notes. I have watched the Wizard of Oz. and i can tell you that the story is nothing like Wicked. They have transformed the story into their own perspective and i think that is what i loved about it the most. If you have no idea of what i am talking about then your just going to have to go and watch it for your self. Don't expect to go their and think your going to be watching the play version of Wizard of oz because you will be disappointed. You have to go their and watch it with a whole new lens. You are now watching it with somebody else point of view.

Everything was lovely. The lighting, the stage sets and transitions, the stage voices being used, the props, the emotions, nuances, costumes, make-up, blocking, background and especially the music. I mean imagine what this play would look like without the music. The musicians did an amazing job and are truly the ones who made this musical happen. When i sit there and watch these kind of plays and i think back to my self and say, "yup, this is exactly what i want to get into. Theatre is defiantly the way i want to go, there is no mistake." I mean i may not be able to sing like them but i sure wouldn't mind learning. The acting part looks fun and i know it probably was fun rehearsing this play with all those people. I can just imaging the laughter going on during rehearsal times. Though i do know it not all laughs and fun, it is also about getting down to work and being seriously in the moment of your character and nailing your parts. Practice! Practice! Practice!

"Toss Toss " Only Glinda!

One of my favorite parts was when Glinda and Elphaba were having a conversation in their dorm. Glinda was trying to help Elphaba look more appealing and to teach her how to become popular. Her song in this scene was amazing, i loved it. In this scene you can see how much Megan Hilty (Glinda) was in the moment. She played her character well. They both did. They were able to lose there selves in their character. I want to be able to go to the extent of becoming your character as much as Megan Hilty did. I also want to be as transparent as Eden Espinosa. Both actors were amazing. They did a stunning job and both have beautiful strong voices.

I think that every cast member was the perfect person for this play. There is so much more i would like to say about it but I wouldn't want to spoil the whole thing. If you have not seen this musical, I suggest you get out there and watch it. I have seen other musicals, plays, Broadway shows but not on a regular. It is now my mission to be in and to go see as many musical/Broadway shows as i can. I'm in love with theatre life. I hope other actors/actresses love it as much as i do.
