I think this picture captures Elphaba's beauty! (A young and hopeful Elphaba (Eden Espinosa) arrives at Shiz University)



This is the day I have been waiting for over a year! I have listened to the CD countless times!! I was so excited the whole time I was at ASU’s Gammage Auditorium and even the whole day, even when I got drenched by the rain on my way to class. It was raining sideways!! Whitney captures my excitement wonderfully on her blog. I also got an awesome shirt that says Defy Gravity. It was such an amazing performance!! I don’t think I can even begin to describe how I felt. When Elphaba walked on stage everyone clapped, including me, (yes I was the first one to start clapping!!). I don't think I realized I was actually there until Elphaba sang, "The Wizard and I". That was fantastic! That song was awesome!! All of the songs were perfect!! Before the show got started I went to get a closer look at the stage and while I was admiring the set up an usher told me, “You know who the real fans are because they are wearing green!” I just grinned and nodded!! The performers all did an amazing job! Here are their bios. Here are some pictures of the people who sat between me! They were great company!

These next two pictures are of the people who actually performed!

Defying Gravity was AMAZING!!!!!!

I felt like this the whole night!!

Something has changed within me Something is not the same I'm through with playing by the rules Of someone else's game Too late for second-guessing Too late to go back to sleep It's time to trust my instincts Close my eyes: and leap! It's time to try Defying gravity I think I'll try Defying gravity And you can't pull me down!
