Dear Readers, something struck me last night while watching the juggernaut musical “Wicked”, currently playing at the Paramount Theatre. No, it wasn’t a flying monkey. It’s just how incredible this show is. It’s withstood the test of time ever since it’s Broadway premiere back in 2003 even though it didn’t win the Tony for Best Musical (that year it went to “Avenue Q”). It’s still running on Broadway, there have been tour after tour, and now we even have a huge blockbuster movie version coming to theaters in a few weeks. But why? For that answer I think we should take a look at this current run which, while not my favorite viewing of the show, still exemplifies what makes this show great.

Recently, we had the chance to speak with Amy Di Bartolomeo, who plays Emily Charlton, Miranda’s first assistant. We discussed how she first got started in the world of theatre, the world of The Devil Wears Prada and even what it has been like to contribute to this new version of Emily on the stage!
