Thanks for that, although we probably won't be going out for breakfast since they have a very nice buffet right at the elevator (one on every floor). They have complimentary bathrobes in the closet and it is okay to go the breakfast in your robe...which I just did...and saw, guess what? Another good looking man, in his robe! LOL...

Good morning 58F and sunny here. I expect it will warm up. Right now I feel like getting back under the covers'

And I surely did. What an experience and what a show!
I went into it a little bit cold...I knew that it was about the two witches from the Wizard of Oz when they were younger, but that was about it. As the show got going, I thought to myself, "This is a fanfic!" and in one way, it is, especially in the first act. Things change gears a bit in the second act but in a completely good and natural way for the flow of the story.
Thinking about it from a fanfic point of view, I actually guessed alot of things that were going to happen, but I never expected the ending which was a complete surprise. That's all I'll say so I don't spoil it for anyone else.
The sets, the costumes, the music, the dancing....everything was amazing. We were in the fourth row! Probably the best seats I have ever had for a show in my life.
Although "Billy Elliott: The Musical" (which I saw in London in Aug 2006) is still number 1 in my lifetime favorite musical experiences, this is right up there...maybe a tie with "Grease" for place number 2. And I saw Grease when? 1972? I need to get out more! LOL

PS...The understudy performed last night in the role of Elphaba. Sometimes when I see it is going to be the understudy I think, "Oh no..." but this actress was AMAZING. I can't imagine how the regular performer could have been any better.
