Defying Gravity

Marina loved the musical Wicked when I took her to see it five years ago. So when it came back to town, I decided to take her again. We were both excited to see it again. Marina decided to wear a black dress with silver sequins as a nod to Elphaba.

We decided to go downtown early and have dinner. When we got to the theatre we saw a huge crowd milling around. Apparently there was a delay opening the building. So I took the food to the car while Marina got in line. When I came back she had already befriended the people around her in line.

We had enough time to pick up drinks and Marina wanted popcorn. (I was surprised at that considering she just ate dinner.) It wasn’t too long before the show started.

The show was wonderful, just as we remembered it. Marina still loves the song “Popular.”  And “Defying Gravity” never disappoints. After the show we were both raving about it.
