My mom and dad came up this weekend for my mom to check out my place and to help me clean the condo, and my dad to help me fix up both the house and condo. Mom and I have been wanting to see Wicked for awhile, so I looked up and got some good tickets (Orchestra, Row R, seat 115), so off we went. Rather than facing potentially bad 4th of July traffic, we took BART in and got off at the station right below the Orpheum Theater.
Taking the BART to see Wicked!
Wow, what a great show! I really enjoyed it, and my Mom did too. So let's see, I've now seen Les Miserables, Phantom of the Opera, Lion King, Jersey Boys, A Chorus Line, and Wicked. I've liked all the ones I've seen (well, A Chorus Line only because someone paid for me), and would definitely love to see it again. I'd put Wicked up there with The Lion King and Les Miserables. Ones I will definitely see again in the future (or have already seen a ton - such as with The Lion King). It's such a great experience seeing these great shows with friends and loved ones. I've now see most of those shows with my mom, and it's great. Now, you're not supposed to take pictures inside the theater, so I can't tell you how I came across the photo below. But it's so cool, I had to show you! Oh, and Patty Duke was in it, as Madame Morrible!
Definitely a great way to spend the 4th of July. By the time we got home and got some new window coverings at JC Penney, we were tired and didn't go anywhere for fireworks. Instead, we watched the numerous shows playing them on TV (Boston, D.C., and New York). It was a fantabulous day!
