Simon ,'Objects In Space'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I'm right there with you, Jilli. "Defying Gravity" gave me chills the first time I listened to it and every third time or so, it still does. Favoritest song ever.
ain't nothin gonna bring me-eeeee doooooooooooooooooooooown!
I have tickets for it at the Kennedy Center in January. So. Excited.
I have to go to work now. It is pouring rain. the closer it gets to time to leave, the worse the rain is getting.
blech. I hate when I have to ignore the obvious signs from above.
Wicked sold out in SF before I had a chance to get tix. I could have seen it when I was in NYC, but my buddies bullied me into a couple of other musicals instead. Me, bitter (typed butter first), nawwww.

It's (finally!) playing in Seattle in September. When I explained to Pete that I was planning on seeing it at least twice, he looked at me and said "I kind of expected that."
The big coffee-table book about the musical has a whole section on how they do Elphaba's makeup, and what products they use. Products that I can get through friends. Why yes, I am returning to my childhood roots for Halloween 2006, and dressing up as the Wicked Witch of the West. My best friend, because she is very indulgent, has agreed to dress as Galinda. (I suspect part of the reason she agreed is because that way she can con her husband into being a flying monkey.)
If we hadn't been out of town for ND and Kristin's Halloween party this year, Kristin and I would have gone as Galinda and Elphaba as they get to school.
"Wicked" coffee table book?????
runs to Amazon
I love how a book spawned a movie that inspired a book that turned into a musical, with attendant CDs and coffee table books. llama. Maybe they'll make a movie about the musical soon.

I DIDN"T KNOW THAT WAS OUT!
Dear Santa -
I NEED NEED NEED NEED THAT BOOK!! PLEEEEEEEEEEEEASE!!!!
Love, Aimee
I sorta wish I hadn't listened to the soundtrack so much before seeing it (On Sept 25, 2005 with sj and teacup guy and Sail and my Aunties - What?) because I found myself nitpicking the way the tour cast sang it compared to the Broadway cast.

Yay! You're going to have a fabulously wicked time!
When I explained to Pete that I was planning on seeing it at least twice, he looked at me and said "I kind of expected that."I was barely able to get tickets to one show. Feh. May need to remedy that. But I'm so excited to hear Jilli's thoughts (and squeeage) on it after she sees it.

Wicked is coming to Cincy, and I have to organize my girlfriends to get tickets. I think my favorite song is "Dancing Through Life," followed VERY closely by "The Wizard and I" and "What Is This Feeling?".
Man, walking with a cane has got to be a beeeeee-yotch when you only have one arm.
He seems to have the hang of it, but I'm in awe of his ability to balance.
