Well, after an aimless start, Wicked gained its footing when it got to the Emerald City.

But I did not like the pastel color palette and almost faded look of the film. It didn’t have to look like The Wizard of Oz, but it needed that richness of color. The ruby slippers were kind of wan.

Good night, all.

Played some pub trivia this evening. My team of four won.
I think I was the only person to know Maxine Nightingale sang “Right Back Where We Started From.”

Just starting the notes now. So, late again, sorry.

It's fun reading about BK's early rehearsal process. We just had our final dress rehearsal for La sonnambula and open on Friday. It should be a great show - our principals are wonderful and the music is so gorgeous. Our friend who attended the dress (spouse of our trumpet player) really enjoyed it.

The soprano and tenor leads in particular have crazily difficult roles and are doing a fantastic job with them. And we have luxury casting for two of the smaller roles.

In the chorus, we're finally getting used to being onstage all the time (well, all but about 20 minutes). Our chorus director and conductor/director were both happy.

One of my favorite songs growing up was "Lead Me On" by Maxine Nightingale.
