So last night Spencer and I headed to the Oriental Theatre here in Chicago to see Wicked: The Untold Story of the Wizard of Oz. What a delight! Stacey Ellen Wolf from UT-Austin was at UM a few weeks ago to give a talk on the queer elements of the musical, so I'm glad I had that in my pocket to chew on throughout the play. We both really enjoyed it! Though I would have rewritten the ending, but that's my major only beef really. The cast performances were really exquisite, particularly the actors playing Elphaba and Galinda. What a lovely night!

Now I've had the song Defying Gravity in my head all day! Loves it! I kind of wanna read the book!
