Wickedly Wonderful Saturday Afternoon

I know I made this photo about as cheesy as you can get. But a picture of the tickets with a gift bow on top just about sums it up. Going to a Broadway show is a gift that I give to Harleigh every year. As much as the girl loves a good musical, she deserves to go see, up close and personal, the finest of musicals. Secondly, it makes for a great mother/daughter date (always followed by lots of good chat about what we saw, as well as lots of singing — in typical exaggerated Broadway style, I might add — as well as dancing and re-enactments of favorite scenes). Wicked was everything we had hoped it would be. Do see it if you get a chance.

  1. What an awesome show! I saw it last year in Miami with my mom and one of my daughters and we all loved it. I thought the music was fabulous. So glad you had a good time!

  2. I couldn't imagine a better time! The best part after a show is the singing and dancing. In my house this lasts as long as the kids can put up with me! Have a great week...

  4. OH! OH! OH! I went to see Wicked on Friday night at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta. I was there for a conference...by myself. So, I thought I'd treat myself and buy a ticket. It was WONDERFUL! And everyone I know who has seen it thought it was great, too. Have you read the books? Believe it or not,they are even better than the play. I agree with you, though, the set and the music was fantastic!!!

  5. That sounds amazing! I've wanted to take my oldest daughter to New York for her 18th birthday next August, and hopefully I'll be able to.

    Glad you had a wonderful time!

  7. It's coming to Atlanta and we'd love to see it, not sure we can swing though. Tickets are horribly expensive (that's the one thing I really miss about NYC - cheap seats to everything).
