Tickets to the show were a birthday present to my Wonderful Wife of the West. We'd seen Wicked in NYC in 2006 but we'd always resented the fact that the giant cape used in the "Defying Gravity" scene was broken the night that we happened to go (plus, we were way back in the corner of the theatre), and wished we could go back and see it again. Back in March when I learned that Wicked was coming to Calgary I resolved to buy tickets for R's birthday.
It turned out that we got much better seats this time around, but we were surprised to see that giant cape had been eliminated in the touring production -- it was replaced with spotlights in the shape of a cape. So, we've still never seen our giant cape, but the effect was still pretty magnificent and we are satisfied... for now.
