This is totally non-photog related but I just wanted to share anyway tongue.gif

I am a huge fan of the musical WICKED and entered this contest just for fun: http://www.citywalkhollywood.com/Wicked

You basically submit a video audition all online, of yourself singing a selected song from the list they give you on that website.

I sent it a month ago and thought they pretty much chucked my audition video out, but then I get a call letting me know I was chosen as one of the 10 semi-finalists for this Wed the 16th @ 7pm!!!


LOL so if anyone is in the Hollywood area and wanna see me make of fool of myself on the stage at Citywalk, feel free to drop in!!! tongue.gif

I LOVED the book and then saw the show and it's amazing and wonderful, but I it wasn't anything like the book. The realtionships are very different. It's just like seeing a movie made from a book. And I am the biggest theatre and musical buff ever! But the book is just too good. wink.gif I wish I would have known how different the musical was because I had just finished the book DAYS before I went to see the musical and so every little different detail was fresh in my mind. So I wanted to let you know so that you don't have the same expectations that I did. smile.gif

GREAT show though. I had a wonderful time. and CONGRATS on winning and making the next round!!! That's so awesome!
CanvasRox

Carey and I saw Wicked on Broadway when we were in NY for PhotoPlus last year - it was AWESOME!!!!

All the best,
Roxanne

Thank you!! Yeah it's such a sweet song, and I new everyone else would opt for "Defying Gravity" or "Wizard and I" or "Popular" tongue.gif
