Beyond Talented

Saturday night Big Daddy and I had a wonderful date night.

We went to see the amazing pianist William Joseph.

   He has toured all over the world and we have been waiting for him to finally have a concert close enough to go see him.

 
As good as the concert was, the best part is the fact that it felt like a little family reunion. It was fun to see Aunts and cousins, some which I haven’t seen in many years.
 
Because even if he is world famous pianist and composer, he is still my cousin.

That Was So Totally Wicked!

On Friday night, as one of our famous Arizona dust storms blew in (those blobs are trees),

we loaded up the ol’ burban…oh wait all those seats in the back that are usually full of bodies were empty.

It was Blessed Date Night!

Big Daddy and I headed out to see:

Big Daddy surprised me with the tickets almost a year ago and I have been waiting and waiting for this day.

We had great seats, first tier, a few rows back, dead center of the auditorium.

I actually got in trouble for taking that picture and had a usher come and threaten to take away my camera.

The show was wonderful. I had read the book years ago and I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Thankfully the musical isn’t like the book and had quite a few very funny parts. The music was great. The story is wonderful. The two actresses that played Elphaba and Glenda were incredible. I have had the song “Popular” running through my head since Friday night.

If you ever have the chance to see Wicked I highly recommend it.

Can you name which Disney movie the title of my post came from?
