Wednesday, Brand fulfilled a promise to me when he took me to see Wicked. It was awesome! I've read the book and knew ahead of time that the play was a lot different than the book. Luckily, I'm one of those people that can love a book and a movie separately even if they are different.
Seeing Wicked made me miss the stage. I love theater! During the production I kept thinking about how chaotic it must be backstage and how much work went into the 2.5 hours that we witnessed. And they definitely kept us entertained. I laughed a lot and my hands hurt from clapping so hard. The choreography was fantastic and the costumes were magical. Anne Brummel as Elphaba was perfect. Natalie Daradich as Glinda was hilarious. Brand told me there were moments of spazzy Glinda that reminded him of me. :)
I'm so glad I got to share my love of theater with Brand. And he loved it too...which was a definite bonus. He laughed just as much and clapped just as hard. Next year I'm planning on going to Beauty and the Beast with the two ladies that had to endure and play along with my B&B obsession as a kid..my mom and sister, Julie. It'll be awesome. Until then, I hope we can go to some local shows this summer. Here's a little bit of our awesome date night at Wicked:
