Hairspray. The tour came through here before I had been formally itroduced to musicals. Yes, I know, that wasn't too long ago, but thank god I know musicals now.
Im a HUGE fan of fun shows, it doesn't have to be all sad and dramatic for me. Wah.

1. I thought I liked Company, but realized that I was pretty much just saying that. I mean, I like most of the songs,and bought the soundtrack right away, but it wasn't very funny and I was bored.
2. I LOVE wicked. Ive seen it 3 times and would see it again in a heartbeat. I know some people secretly love wickedly, but won't admit it, or won't even see it because everyone says its just some jukebox musical. ( I could go on and on about those kind of people, but I will refrain.)

Last year during our performance of Cinderella for an elementary school, somehow the Windows tune (ya know that little tune that plays when you turn on your computer) Came on through the speakers instead of the magical sound, right as the Fairy Godmother made her first entrance.
Oh good times.

In Wicked, I LOVE in Defying Gravity when Elphaba and Glinda are singing together " I really hope you get it, and you don't live to regeret it." AH! It gives me chills.
I also chuckle when Rod is singing "My Girlfried, who lives in Canada" in Avenue Q when Rod goes "...And sucks like a hoover" and he does that little laugh. LOVE IT.

mejusthavingfun- What you said about Elphabas silhouette during the opening song "No One Mourns the Wicked." I only noticed it the second time I saw it and got MAJOR chills. I *LOVE* that part. It's just so... Powerful, to me I guess. I don't know. AH! When I saw it a third time I practically ripped my friends arm off with excitment.

I hate those poeple that have to be the last person to clap. I mean WTF. Is there some competition Im not aware of?
I also hate when people are like "Where has musical theater gone?" When talking about Wicked or some of the newer shows. I mean, I know everyone has their own opinions about it but come on, not all of us are old enough to know what theater "use" to be.
Obviously, I adore Wicked and am proud to say it...*Ducks possible flying objects*

I was lucky enough to see the show in New York and Seattle with both Megan and Shoshana, and I thought they were absolutely superb both times. I was so excited when I heared that Shoshana and Megan would be coming here to play the roles, and I was FAR from dissapointed.
Personally, I thought the riffs were okay. They didn't distract me from the tune of the song at all. And, Megan *Squeals* her voice was BEAUTIFUL and she had everyone laughing and clapping, as did Shoshana. Christopher

Yeah, the ones on the main page are just models. In fact i think the Radames in the picture is Casey Elliot's u/s.
The girl playing Aida, Marja Harmon, Is actually in her 20's its sad that she looks so much older. Honestly, Im just glad they aren't changing the songs. I think that is one of the best parts of the show and its gotten good reviews thus far, so im not too worried about the production as a whole.

Sherie just seems to be more into the role than Idina. It was OK, but I prefer Sherie.

I have the CD and I can't get over the fact that the song "Different" is right before intermission. I mean is that true? Cause I've only heared that was the case.
I mean the song before intermission should usually be a big fun song, or REALLY meaningful, something the gets the crowd going. I just can't see that song as making me get chills.
I don't know about anyone else, but I want to be extremely anticipating the rest of the show just because of the pre-intermission song. Im
