About this ebook
In January of 2010, a wide-eyed English grad went from peddling software in NYC to understudying the lead role in Wicked the musical -- her first professional theater gig (ever). Unnaturally Green is the humorous account of the entire journey, from her pit-stain-filled audition to the bittersweet closing night.
Author Felicia Ricci wears her heart on her sleeve as she tackles the role of Elphaba, Wicked's green-skinned heroine. She leaps countless hurdles, both professional and personal: conquering the "Songs of Death," weathering a trans-continental "Week I Didn't Poop," enduring the artistic limbo of understudying, and -- worst of all! -- meeting the man of her dreams. And all the while learning, time and again, what it means to be "green."
Hop into the mind of an over-sharer as she discovers Broadway's Man Behind the Curtain -- and the thrill and terror of personal growth.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5If you love theatre even half as much as I do, this is a MUST READ! Even though I know a lot of people in the theatre community, I found Felicia Ricci's story incredibly interesting and entertaining. She mentioned things I'd never even thought about asking my friends and the look behind the scenes of one of my top 5 favorite musicals was wonderful!If you aren't into theatre, you might still enjoy this great read. Grammar freaks will even find this book refreshingly well written. :-) If you know someone who loves the musical Wicked or theatre in general, Unnaturally Green would make a great gift. They're sure to enjoy it!
