Wicked @ the Wharton Center

Wicked has been in East Lansing since July 16 and after much debate and unsureness, my mom, sisters, and I decided to go see it on its last night here in Michigan (that was tonight). We got pretty good seats even though we bought them only mere hours before the show.
Christie (my twin sis) and I decided to make the occasion special so we wore some formal dresses, mine black and green and her's pink and off we all went. I also wore my witch hat and she had a pink flower in her hair. We got so many stares and smiles as we walked through the Wharton Center to our seats.
All day I'd been anticipating the performance and when the music started and the action began I just couldn't contain my excitement - I started crying. Not sobbing or anything that drastic but tears started falling. It was excellent!! I mean it will never compare to the original Broadway cast of which I've only seen on youtube but the traveling cast members were all great in their own ways and the whole thing was amazing. I started crying again at Defying Gravity and then of course at the end after For Good.
After the performance we took a few pictures and then were heading to our car when we saw some people looking down at the stage door from the parking ramp. We looked over and saw people waiting. Christie and I hurried down the parking ramp stairs and were able to join the group of people waiting. We got there in time to see "Madame Morrible" and then waited as "Fiyero" and "Nessa" came out. We got all of their autographs and got a picture with "Fiyero." Then we waited for quite a long time hoping that "Elphaba" and "Glinda" might come out. I don't really know how long it was but after waiting for a while Carmen Cusack (Elphaba) finally appeared. She really liked Christie's and my outfits and signed 5 different things for me. We got a picture with her too and I swear that I was not breathing for a bit. lol. I didn't really know what to say to her but she was very nice and overall I am so glad we waited by those doors. AHHHH!!! I wonder how I'll be if I have the chance to meet Idina.
I'm at an all time high right now - defying gravity.
