Chorus boys in skirts!

on WICKED costuming---

"Boys can wear skirts if they want; it's a parallel universe after all. And then it was just a mixing of colors.”

Ah-HAH! I thought that one of the very tall chorus boys was just bored when I saw WICKED because he was wearing a skirt..yet..not a kilt-like skirt...this thing had a SLIT and exposed his little 'ole leg.

Although, my sister and friend who saw the show months apart from when I did commented on this boy too.

It's one thing if there were multipe boys on the chorus wearing skirts too...yet...I only noticed his one...probably because he was at least 6'2''!

Yeah yeah?

Thank you Paul! It's been a big debate over here as well, my mother was especially confused...she went on a rant about how "Broadway is so strange sometimes!" LOL

Thanks!

that is kinda strange..maybe they are trying to express that some ozians like to cross dress.

The odd thing is: I didn't even notice that there was a man in a skirt onstage.

Funny, I noticed both times I went. He dances around during "Dancing Through Life" and you can't help but notice him!

I totally missed him. I have to go see it again. Maybe on tour? If I'm lucky...

He spins and the skirt goes out and all, I'm surprised you all missed him. Too focused on Norbert Leo Butz lol.
