Richard waits his turn, then bows during curtain call for tonight's performance of Jesus Christ Superstar at the London Palladium. The OP said, "... Richard ... absolutely smashed his first performance of the run as King Herod."

For my music exam project I’m going to be analysing Wicked and reinvention within that franchise. Specifically I’m gonna analyse and compare Cynthia and Idina’s versions of “The Wizard and I” not to find out which one is better but to explain and explore what’s different. I’m really excited about it!

For the practical part of it I’m gonna sing the song, in front of my whole class, and I’m scared because I’ve never done that before, I’ve only been taking singing lessons for a bit more than a month, and bla bla bla. If I look inwards and look beyond the fear, I’m quite excited. Performing is what I want to do and this is a chance to feel what it’s like. So wish me luck please because I will need it, not just in order to sing well but in order to not collapse from anxiety before I get a word out.

Chapter 3: First Performance

Narrated by Nikki.

Narrator: [Your Name], actually... I’ve had some great experience on the stage.

Narrator: When designing costumes for Yoyo, I did a little bit of a cameo appearance.

Narrator: I was clumsy. Nevertheless, a great memory it was.

Narrator: Yoyo’s college hosted a music festival in her sophomore year.

Narrator: She formed a band right upon entering the college and bought a set of drums. Can you imagine that?

Choose either “Even Yoyo has moments like this, Nikki?” or “Yoyo always has her own opinions.”

If “moments,” ...

You: That’s a big surprise.

Narrator: It’s cool to be a rebel sometimes, right?

If “opinions,” ...

You: Yoyo is an independent soul.

Narrator: Yes. She’s always after her passion, including having a band. That never changed.

--

Narrator: She prepared a song for the music festival, rehearsing and revising day and night.

Narrator: One day, she dragged me into her room.

Yoyo: Hey, design some stage costumes for us!

Nikki: Why...?

Yoyo: What do you say? Time to prove yourself!

Narrator: With her hand on my shoulder and a burning gaze meeting my eyes, I just couldn’t say no to that passion.

Nikki: Ok. I’ll try.

Narrator: The next day, Yoyo took me to a rehearsal. She looked small behind that full set of drums.

Narrator: But everything changed when she started playing.

Narrator: A storm of beats, it was. Her powerful style was the backbone of the entire band.

Narrator: Yoyo shared an approving glance with other band members, smiling.

Narrator: I never knew Yoyo could be so cool before, although now she’s somewhat ashamed of having a band.

Narrator: I was motivated by the rehearsal. I must have Yoyo and the band appear in the most appropriate fashion, with my own design.

Narrator: So I became an observer of their rehearsal sessions, to analyze their motions, positions, and ambient lighting.

Narrator: I had a front row seat, so close to the energetic action on the stage. Sometimes I even sing along, totally unaware.

Yoyo: Come up here and sing!

Nikki: What? Me? No way.

Yoyo: Why?

Narrator: I was refusing out of habit, but Yoyo came to the edge of the stage and crouched down.

Yoyo: Didn’t Mom take you to fashion photography and TV drama production sites back then? Why are you afraid of being onstage now?

Nikki: That’s not the same...

Narrator: Have you ever felt your own voice be unfamiliar, like, out of control, when it passes through speakers?

Choose either “That’s how I feel” or “It’s good to get the hang of it.”

If “feel,” ...

You: Yes. The song ends up not quite like what I imagined.

Narrator: Exactly. I’m afraid the voice of not-quite-me might cause me to freeze onstage.

If “good,” ...

You: Because you’re too nervous. Try a few more times and you’ll get it.

Narrator: Maybe if I have the opportunity to practice.

--

Nikki: Facing a camera and actually being on the stage, they’re different!

Yoyo: Why?

Nikki: Because! I belong in an audience seat.

Narrator: Yoyo slightly tapped my head and shook hers in exasperation.

Narrator: Then she returned to the center of the stage. Watching her go, I was somehow feeling a little bit down.

Narrator: The costume design was a breeze. Yoyo found someone to help speed up the process.

Nikki: Hey, Yoyo, you got the number wrong. We have one set extra.

Yoyo: No, I didn’t.

Nikki: But...

Yoyo: The extra clothes are for you, during the music festival.

Nikki: Huh? But I’m not going on the stage.

Yoyo: We’re in this together.

Narrator: Yoyo forced the outfit upon me, and left with the rest of the band, leaving me there on my own. I was clutching the costume.

Narrator: The venue was packed on the day of the festival. The passionate crowd was getting excited.

Narrator: All those hands, waving light sticks, made a glowing sea, girting the isle of radiance that is the stage.

Narrator: A spectrum of young souls.

Narrator: I was thrilled to see the costume of my own design shining in the spotlight. It was a visual representation of the music.

Narrator: The stage is a place of power, where my design shone in a special light.

Narrator: Yoyo’s band prepared two songs for the event. In between, she pointed at me without warning, and announced...

Yoyo: This is Nikki, our costume designer.

Narrator: All those gazes focused on me, almost instantly.

Narrator: I was dumbstruck, looking at Yoyo for help.

Narrator: That’s when she extended her hand and invited me to the stage.

Narrator: Thundering applause, from a galaxy of light sticks. My heart felt a surge of power and urged me toward the stage.

Narrator: Yoyo held my hand tight, and pulled me up there.

Narrator: As if breaking through an invisible barrier, I popped up in a whole new world and lost myself.

Narrator: Yoyo passed over the mic. I took it and realized the audience had been eerily silent.

Narrator: I could hear every sound, from my own heartbeat to my amplified voice booming over the venue.

Nikki: Hi, everyone. I’m Nikki, the costume designer.
