Okay, so on Kevin's 36th b-day we (along with mama and papa D) went to the Broadway production of Wicked. It wasn't exactly a birthday present--as I'm sure it was probably more for me than for him--but when we purchased the tickets and noticed his birthday night as an option, we just thought that would be a fun way to celebrate.
And it definitely was.
We started with dinner at Cheesecake Factory (our favorite), where we have the exact same thing each visit ... Louisiana Pasta & Chicken. Delicious!! We always share so we have plenty of room left over for dessert!
Kevin's yummy b-day treat:). Cannot remember what it was, but it looks good to me. Pretty sure I got the key lime cheesecake this time.
Oh, yeah!
And then we continued on to downtown Seattle's Paramount Theatre for the show.
Which was super fun.
And ended up pretty full.
The funny, and kinda sad part of the evening was when we all discovered that Papa D had never even seen the Wizard of Oz (the story off of which Wicked is based). He may have been just a tad bit lost and perhaps a little bored;).
Great show. Very clever and entertaining. I don't suppose I would classify myself as a Wicked fanatic--or anything close to it. It was a bit long for my taste, although perhaps a matinee showing would have changed my opinion of that, but I definitely enjoyed it! I think the birthday boy did as well.
