This year I went back to the Deer Valley Music Festival to enjoy another gorgeous Park City summer evening. Idina Menzel - the original Elphaba in Wicked, Taye Diggs' wife, Rachel's biological mom on Glee - performed with the Utah Symphony. Idina's voice is A.Maz.Ing. Belting out "Defying Gravity", chatting about the random made-up songs Taye and her will sing to their child and the songwriting competition it becomes between them, nailing Barbara Streisand's "Don't Rain on My Parade" and even making the symphony play Lady Gaga! - "Poker Face" from her performance on Glee.
Cheesecake Factory Key Lime Cheesecake, a beautiful Park City evening, amazing music. A wonderful night.

Summers are always my favorite time in Utah too. I've often said that an ideal world would be to winter in TX and summer in UT.
SOUNDS AWESOME.
Things I wish I could do:
- sing well.
- dance.
I still can't get over her incredible "Tomorrow" encore from Annie. Such a perfect evening!
