So, yesterday, I saw the matinee of Wicked. The only understudy was Fieryo. To say I hated is a bit too much but it definitley was not worth 100$. Our seats were pretty good but I will never go see it again. And, not to blame it all on Wicked but my friend was not in the best of moods and she will NEVER come to NYC with me again..lol- long story. Anyway- I don't know- Wicked just didn't hit me on the right note. I went to FB: SVU afterwards and I enjoyed that a lot better than Wicked. The actors and actreses in Wicked were awesome, I think it was more the plot of the show was boring and uninteresting to me. Then again, to each their own. My favorite chatacter I have to admit was Nessa Rose- I thought she was excellent. G(a)linda (JLT) was very good also, I loved the big bubble thing. Elphaba (Shoshana) was good also but personally I wasn't feeling it. Maybe it was me but she didn't seem to be fully in character. I know she was sick a few days ago and for some reason I didn't feel she was all the way there although since I have never seen it before, I wouldn't know. I have to say the understudy for Fieryo was hot tho! 
Forbidden Broadway was really good. To listen to the CD does not at all get the funny points that actually 'seeing' it does. With specifically: Bombay Wet dreams, Lion King, Avenue Q and Wicked there is no way you can get the idea from hearing it on the CD. It's an extremely small theatre and I did feel some of the actors voices were way too loud for that theatre but it was still a really funny show.
So, that was my experinece yesterday at Wicked and FB.
*Ducks down for flying objects to be thrown at me*
Ps. I don't have any pictures from Wicked execpt for the understudy of Fieryo because supposedly 'they' (the other actors and actresses) tend to order food in after a matinee. Oh-well.

People like you are the reason I'm on medication.
