I was all set to spend the night bumming around my house watching tv and whatnot, when my sister calls me. It turned out that she and Paul rushed for tickets tonight for both Wicked and Spelling Bee, and actually won tickets to both, so she gave me the tickets to Wicked.

So after rushing in to NYC to make it to the show on time (the show started at 8pm and my sister told me at 6:40pm), Emma and I got to the theater with 15 minutes to spare. In normal rush style, our seats were great. Second row, all the way to the right. There really wasn't anything to obstruct our vision, except for the occasional actor/actress, so no complaints from me.

The show was absolutely great though! It stunk that Idina Menzel wasn't there anymore, but I thought that the cast did a really great job. Fiyero's voice was a little too poppy, but his main role was to look pretty, and he did a good job of that. The Galinda/Glinda, whatever, was really funny, and we even saw an understudy. The set, costumes, and coreography were all really good too. Not to mention the story that was so great and really creative. I want to read more of this author's works now. The spin that he put on the original story was really imaginative.

Man, I love Broadway.
