Wicked
I saw Wicked on Broadway today. It is an awesome show all around, great music, great design, excellent acting, and above all a great message.
I’m at the end of my day and want to get to sleep, but the two ideas that run through it:
- Diversity is important, and is something to be cherished. Those who come from different backgrounds can have valuable, deep meaningful relationships. Additionally, diversity makes us stronger by providing a variety of view points
- Those that appear good can be evil. I saw strong parallels to the third reich in many of the characters that are traditionally perceived as good in the traditional Wizard of Oz Cannon
