I wanted to do something special for Alan for his first Father's Day and luckily I was listening to the radio one day and heard that Wicked was coming to St Louis in June. Perfect I thought, I know he has wanted to see it for a long time so I thought I would surprise him. It was playing at the historical FOX Theater in St Louis and I splurged and got us seats in the Orchestra. (small hint: you can get way cheaper and much better seating if you go directly to the box office and do not order over the phone or online.)
Needless to say Alan was super excited-I had heard mixed reviews so I was trying to go into it with an open mind. I loved it, I've heard the book is pretty bad but the musical was AMAZING! I even shed a few tears at the end! I now understand why people go and see this so many times! And the theatre was just beautiful as well, what an interesting piece of architectural history.

Since we couldn't go see this on Father's Day and made Alan a treat on the actual day-not to be outdone by his chocolate lava cake! It was a lime-berry tart and it was tasty!
