You’re gonna be Popular

I just got back from Wicked and I absolutely loved it!

Sorry there might be spoilers below but I don’t know how to turn my font white and am too lazy to find out anyway so skip the whole section if you’re going to be watching Wicked and don’t wanna know how it goes!

Anyway I think I am turning into my grandma! She’s the kind of person when watching Tamil movies and the good guy and the bad guy fight it out, she yells at the good guy to look behind him cos the bad guy is coming up with a chainsaw or something wtf.

And I am like a super junior (pun not intended) version of her cos I’d gasp and sit on the edge of my seat when something unexpected happened and cry buckets when Elphaba and Glinda sang “For Good” T________T

But iz all good cos when I looked over at Angela she had tears glimmering in her eyes too.

Plus I really liked how everything in Wicked tied up to the Wizard of Oz and they explained how a lot of things came to be.

I exited the theater feeling all warm and emo at the same time I also dunno why!  Ok spoiler alert but it was a  happy ending and Elphaba didn’t die in the end also but I don’t know why I’m still so emo!

I think I’m just a compassionate person lor seriously.  Or maybe I identify with Elphaba because I was ridiculed at school for being short and having no boobs fml.

Anyway I’m so so glad I watched it! We were in the 6th row in the orchestra section which is so amazing cos we were so near the stage.

But fml in Act II these two Mexican women clutching alcohol in paper cups came and sat in the empty seats next to me *narrows eyes

The alcohol smell damn strong okay so distracting! Angela said it was just red wine but so strong ok I still think it was vodka and coke or something wtf.

Actually at the end of the first act I thought it was over already and was very shocked when people started moving out of their seats.  But luckily it was only half time or recess or whatever it’s called.

Wicked is showing now in San Fransisco at the Orpheum!

I love all these old buildings around the city!  So well preserved and brings so much character to San Fran 🙂

Posing with the poster outside.

They said no photography but Angela managed to sneak in a couple of photos. This is what the stage looked like before the curtain went up.

Actually she didn’t sneak she blatantly put her camera up and snapped this -_- With the guy holding the No Photography sign standing right in front of her!  Always like this wan she’s damn lucky while every time I try to sneak photos I sure get caught.  Even worse when it’s in Universal Studios and I’m surrounded by gleefully staring kids *gloom

The sides of the stage which was also used as part of the show.  Damn pretty right!

Um flying bird slash dragon slash I don’t know.

Wicked playbill!

    It is the prequel to Wizard of Oz. Also, in the show I saw, alot of kids in the audience.

    PS. Did you sing along to “Defying Gravity”?
