Good morning!

I just woke up to find a new Wicked Australia newsletter email. Read it online here. Mostly about Wicked Day, merch, Qantas and Rob Guest

Finally (!!) going to see Wicked. Mum and I are going down to Melbs next week... which would be better - to go to a matinee or a night performance? I'd rather a night, mum would rather a matinee because she doesn't want to walk around the city at night... so which do you think it better?

[lanafromoz]

With shows in general, there's usually a higher chance of getting the principle cast over understudies for an evening performance - but I don't know how true that is for Wicked.

From my experience I've found audiences are more into the show during evening performances, and if you're stuck in B reserve at a matinee, you might have to be prepared to deal with some really loud and annoying people. :P

But really, the performance will be just as awesome, no matter which. So maybe do a matinee for your mum's sake? Though there is nothing scary about that area at night.

Edit: But also know that going on such short notice will probably mean you won't get great seats. :(

[detafo]

I'll tell her that and see what we can do :) thanks.

PS: I love the icon... is it sound of music... sort of? Looks it :)

[lanafromoz]

It's Kristin Chenoweth doing a little bit of a spoof of The Sound of Music on the TV show Pushing Daisies. xD

I say this with no bias at all - surely this would be an opportunity to promote from within! :D

Any mention of dates?

[lanafromoz]

I know nothing beyond the fact that the notice exists. :P Maybe our "source" will have more to tell us later? ;)

[crossoverman]

Did our source mention someone else leaving? Or am I on crack?

[lanafromoz]

Yeah, that was also in another text message to me. All of these vague rumours are actually doing my head in. I just want details and confirmation and things I can actually report for sure. :P

[snowballs]

Yes! Or we can just ponder the reason why he wasn't Boq in the first place!

[crossoverman]

Because he wasn't on Australian Idol.
