It's a Wicked story indeed!
When Dorothy Gale’s farmhouse crash-landed on the Wicked Witch of The East – all ended in tears and screams (I’m melting, I’m melting!). For decades we were led to believe that the Wicked Witch was just that, wicked …but what if she wasn’t?
Wicked flips the coin to the other side. Centred around an unlikely friendship born between Elphaba and Glinda, Wicked follows the pair through a turbulent journey of self-discovery, prejudice, and loss. As the Wizard aims to corrupt Oz and threaten the balance of all they value, what will become of Elphaba and Glinda? More specifically, how will they come to be known as the Wicked Witch and the Good Witch?
