Wicked In L.A.

I saw the play “Wicked” last month (http://www.johnnyjet.com/folder/archive/WheresJohnny050920073.html) in London and loved it. I don’t normally plug PR stuff but I thought for those who are “Wicked” fans and will be in L.A. this might be a great event to attend, especially for kids. "Wicked Wednesdays" at Universal Studios Hollywood will be kicked off tomorrow (June 27) by Carol Kane, currently seen as Madame Morrible on Pantages boards in "Wicked". She will introduce a series of noon performances at Universal Studios Hollywood offering the blockbuster musical's fans an opportunity to enjoy special performances, meet the stars and collect autographs from the cast of the L.A. production on three Wednesdays this summer. The Oscar-nominated thesp will introduce cast members Julie Reiber (Elphaba) and Melissa Fahn (Glinda) who will perform a sampling of the show's most popular numbers. Two of the show's other stars--Eden Espinosa and Kris Cussack-- will need no escorts when they make their "Wicked Wednesdays" appearances later in the summer: both got their start singing and hoofing in Universal Studios Hollywood theme park shows ("Spiderman Rocks," and "Beetlejuice"). "Wicked Wednesday" performances at the theme park will be reprised on July 11 and July 25. For more info see: http://www.universalstudioshollywood.com/b_wickedwednesdays/
