I thought this was mesmerizing.  Costumes, lighting and camera work were all terrific.  Love Kathryn.

What an awful version of that song


Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist. Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino. This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more. Tazber's: Reply to Is Stephen Schwartz a Practicing Christian

I thought so, too!

And although Travis Wall is one of my all-time favorite dancers from SYTYCD (especially when he was choreographed by Mia Michaels), I haven't always been as enthusiastic about his choreography.

I did like this piece, however. There were phrases of Sarah Vaughan's interpretation that on their own, I would consider to be self-indulgent and not enjoyable, but in combination with Travis' choreography, her vocals had more emotional impact. There were also elements of Travis' choreography that I thought might fall flat, or be lost without the camera work and the lighting. (FWIW, I think they're doing some very creative lighting work with that back wall, this season.)

I didn't think any one element of that performance, on its own, was particularly good. They all created something interesting to watch in combination, though.
