Wicked


   Witches, Warlocks, and talking Goats! Oh my! On January 30th I got the privilege to see a spectacular, award winning show, WICKED! This show is the prequel to the 'Wizard of Oz'. It tells you of how which witch became that witch. This is such an amazing show because of its incredible story line, its astonishing music, and the wonderful actors. This show as a whole is an astounding show.
  To begin with, this show has jaw-dropping music. When these actors sing and the music leaves their mouths it just makes you feel like your in heaven. The actress who had played Glinda (Jeanna De Waal) portrayed her role very well. She has many comedic moments and would have the audience in tears from laughter. But Elphaba (Christine Dwyer) had one of the most amazing voices I have ever heard, when she sung 'Defying Gravity' she literally put me in tears from how amazing she was. I just have to say who ever casted this show, knows what talent is.
  Furthermore, this was my second time seeing this show and it was even better than the first time I saw it. When I first saw this show I was slightly young so I didn't really get the whole affect it had on me, but watching this the other night made me understand the rave over this show. My favorite musical is 'A Chorus Line' but after Wednesday I had to reevaluate that. This show has the WOW-FACTOR! It makes you laugh, it pulls you off your seat, and it makes you cry in may ways. I had friends that went to see the show the night after I went and I asked one of my friends "How did you like it" and she said she only had to give me a two word answer "Life changing".
  To conclude, if you haven't seen this show I recommend that you do. As you've heard, it is life changing. It is literally one of the most amazing shows anyone will ever see. I give this show two thumbs up, so go see it so we can double it to four. This show will be running at the Broward Center till February 17th. This is a MUST GO!
