Chad got me tickets to see the musical Wicked for Christmas this year. We got to go in March and it was definitely worth seeing! I read the book probably 7 or 8 years ago and I remembered really liking it and since it had been so long since I read it I decided to read it again before we saw the musical. But, I could barely force myself to get through it the second time. After I finally finished it I thought, "why did I like this book again?" But, I knew the musical was only loosely based on the book and that's a good thing because the book is very dark and violent with a LOT of political intrigue and details. And after re-reading the book and seeing the musical soon after I can definitely say it is very, very loosely based on the book. There were a few aspects that were wildly different in the musical than the book that I didn't like. But, overall the musical was good and the actors did a phenomenal job. Chad & I both very much enjoyed it and it gave us a reason to dress up too! Here are some pictures of us getting ready to go see Wicked:
