WICKED, MUSICAL

I saw WICKED this afternoon, and can't find enough superlatives for it. It's the unexpectedly moving story of Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West. She wasn't always wicked--she was green, ugly and smart, and Glinda, the Good Witch, was the clueless and selfish blond type. They became enemies--or was it friends? No spoilers--just go see it when you have a chance. Or buy the DVD. It's good. I mean wicked.

It's been out since 2003, so I'm a little late getting to it; seeing it as a stage production was splendid.
