I went to see Wicked last night at the Canon Theatre in Toronto.

For years upon years I have been dying to go see a musical. It only seemed natural for me to do so because I’ve always either played an instrument, sung, or – in the case of elementary school – acted in or worked on plays. I also really like the few musical movies I have seen.

But in all of my 21 years, I have never been to a live show. I think it was because I was afraid of loving it so much that I would become addicted and would go on to spend a lot of my money on shows.

I finally gave in and got tickets to see Wicked a little over a month ago. I figured that the all the hype around the show would guarantee a great first live show.

Last night, I was completely blown away by the beautiful sounds of the orchestra and singers, the wonderful costumes, the amazing production and effects of the show, and most of all: the exciting atmosphere.

I am currently struggling to hold myself from purchasing tickets to see The Phantom of the Opera when it returns to Toronto in the New Year. However, I’ve already bought tickets to go see We Will Rock You in March.

This is definitely going to be a problem for the rest of my life! Oh boy…
