It was Wicked...and we liked it!

Along our travels, we stopped in Hollywood to see the Broadway play WICKED. What a great show. The play itself was pretty good, but the music was phenomenal! We prepped by learning the songs beforehand, but we were afraid that we would be disappointed once it was in person. Luckily we were not let down! Elphaba (aka the Wicked Witch) had a better voice than anyone we had ever heard and Glinda (The Good Witch) was a close second! All in all, the show was wonderful and we definitely recommend seeing it. After the show, we had a chance to meet the stars as they signed autographs and took pictures. And you bet Ashley was rubbing elbows with all those kids to try and get autographs and pictures! We had a chance to talk to the Wicked Witch and asked her how she becomes green for the show. For all of you who wonder the same thing, they actually use a powder base and it takes a half hour to apply. Shesays it is really easy because it comes off with soap and water and she just sits there while others apply it! What a life? We would have never suspected that she actually did look normal until we saw her after the show! So the next time any of you are in L.A., Chicago, or New York, it is worth the time and effort to get tickets and to go see it! BEFORE
