Wicked
While visiting Andy’s parents for Thanksgiving, one of things we did was go see a musical. I am not much of a musical fan, but I had heard a lot of good things about Wicked. Wicked is based on a book (which I am told is much darker than the musical) about the behind-the-story life of the Wicked Witch from The Wizard of Oz. I ended up loving the musical which surprised me. Andy was kind of ho-hum about it, but he’s a guy. The story actually makes you feel bad for hating the Witch in The Wizard of Oz. I loved the play–hated the intermission because the theater we saw it in must have been built by a man. There were woman lined up for what seemed like forever. Normally, I would just hold it, but being pregnant–not so much. I luckily got in and out within a minute of them closing the doors. So note to all theater owners–either make intermission 20 minutes or make bigger womens bathrooms! One cool thing that we got from Andy’s mom was a onesie that says Green Babies Rule (because the witch is green). The muscial actually makes me want to read the book. I would say this musical is for anyone who likes a good story and can sit for 3 hours and doesn’t mind singing too much.
