Defying Gravity is just YES!!!! The live version FILLS you up with this intense energy that makes the recording look like a pale imitation!!! If there weren't an intermission right after it I would most likely have imploded in my seat from awesome both times I saw it *G*
I am in fact SHOCKED you weren't spoiled for that! Personally I appreciated it as Glinda doesn't know so you get your angst with your glee!
The costumes are GORGEOUS! I am particularly in love with the outfits from One Short Day.
Galinda is insanely annoying in act 1 but she's supposed to be. My fav little Galinda bit is when she waves the wand and keeps yelling "Ballgown!" louder and louder until she just huffs and gives up. It never fails to make me cackle!
Don't feel bad about never making it through the movie I hate it, and haven't watched in years! I don't even really like the books both Frank L Baum's originals and the new Wicked set. But the musical! Ohhhh, the musical makes me gleeful!
