My dream came true on Thursday night--I saw WICKED!
I've been talking about seeing it for so long (and telling the story of how I almost got to in Chicago) that I had practically convinced myself that I didn't care if I saw it or not.
But that all changed Thursday morning when I got a text from my Mom--yeah, weird...my Mom is better at texting than me. Needless to say, I freaked out when she asked me if I'd want to see WICKED that night as an early birthday present. During the course of our texting conversation she also used the acronym "lol" and I couldn't help but think "Wow, my Mom is way cooler than me!"
Well, the play was fantastic.
I was so glad that I only knew a little bit about the plot because it made the whole show such a surprise.
Now that it's over, I am left with a strange feeling--you know, the one you feel when a dream comes true.
I almost feel a sense of fulfillment and loss all at the same time.
Where do I go from here?
Your help is sought: What play MUST I see?
I must know.
A non-exhaustive list of what I've seen already:
Phantom of the Opera
Kiss Me Kate
Les Miserables
Cats
Beauty and the Beast
Tess
and now WICKED!
Dream on.

Spamalot! Do I even have to explain why? Because it's AWESOME!
As a random note of trivia: the word they are having me enter is "ovest" which reminds me of the radical feminists who argued that we should change the word "semester" to "ovester" for obvious reasons of male domination. And I've always though "ovester" would be one of the silliest words in the English language.
