Last night was absolutely fantastic. Joaquin, Jamie, and I watched the first opening of Wicked the Musical. We were supporting Carlo Paguio, whose role was Fiyero.

The show was supposed to start at 8pm sharp at the Greenbelt theater. We got there at 7pm, and the line was already long. Joaquin decided to line up while we bought food. He ordered a burger, fries, and a huge drink so I ran up the escalator to deliver his take-out meal. Jamie and I ordered chicken and rice so we needed a table.

We stayed in the restaurant. We had to eat fast, and poor Joaquin barely managed to balance his food and drink. He miraculously finished his meal-- standing up. I salute him. Haha. When we finally finished eating, we ran up the escalator. Joaquin was slightly grumpy.

We were standing in line for the longest time. Finally, the doors opened and everyone ran in to find the best seats. We were able to find decent seats-- not too near and not too far. We settled down and waited for the curtain to rise.

THE PLAY WAS MARVELOUS! The girl playing Glinda had a hoarse voice, so she couldn't sing properly. She lost her voice and they had to get her understudy. I felt really bad for her, but she was really good. She managed to act properly.

The girl who played Elphaba was AMAZING! Her voice was awesome, and she acted really well. We were cheering for Carlo Paguio, and he was an awesome Fiyero.

To sum up everything, Wicked was one fantastic show. From the songs, to the cast, it was a job well done; a five-star rating, deserving a two thumbs-up.
