About this Item

INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY AUTHOR. Very Near Fine in Wraps: shows a touch of wear to a couple corner tips and the binding leans ever so slightly, while remaining perfectly secure; there is also a single, very faint crease in the middle of the backstrip; the text is clean. Not perfect, but remains very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 274 pages. First Edition [2011], unstated. Paperback: Pictorial Wraps. 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. INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY AUTHOR.
