Pantages, Los Angeles

This was the third time that I've seen a production of Wicked. First was on Broadway, original cast, second was here at the Pantages, but Eden Espinosa and Carol Kane were both out. I did see Megan Hilty though, and the seat was awesome, down on the floor only a few rows back!!

This time Megan Hilty was out but Eden and Carol were in. Yeesh, I can't seem to get them all there at the same time. Anyway, it was AMAZING!! Eden Espinosa blew Idina Menzel out of the water. She had every note and threw in some extra stuff that was just terrific. My seat was in the last row of the balcony. I was on the isle in the center, but was in the very last row. The place was packed. I can't believe that it is still selling out that theatre, even on a Tuesday.

I may need to go again before school starts. The ideal would be to see these two women at the same time. Perhaps Tuesday isn't the best choice for that. I'll try a Friday or Saturday....it's just so expensive.
