Has anyone ever heard of or seen Wicked? It's about the Wicked Witch of the West and the Good Witch Glinda from 'Wizard of Oz' you know, before Dorothy came along. I read the book by Gregory Maguire from which the musical is based on and I absolutely LOVE it! I really want to go see the musical version, though I hear it's loosely based on the book.
Maguire names the Wicked Witch "Elphaba" after the initials of the original author of 'Wizard of Oz', L. Frank Baum. LFB translates to Elphaba .. somehow. (: I thought that was interesting. Anyways, it's a really good book and you guys should look into it! Elphaba is featured on my avatar, by the way. If you're interested in songs from the musical, I suggest downloading 'Defying Gravity'. It's my favorite song. (: |

IDINA MENZEL<3. I love her in Rent. (:
Did you hear that she fell through her trapdoor the other day and broke a rib, so she wasn't able to perform her own finale show? :/ But I hear she made an appearance. I hope she gets better soon to start filming 'Rent' the movie! |
