Wicked

Wicked tells the untold story of the witches of Oz long before Dorothy arrives. Elphaba, a brilliant young woman born with green skin, and Glinda, a popular and ambitious student, begin as unlikely roommates before friendship, love and political conflict send them down very different paths. Based on Gregory Maguire’s novel, the musical features music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz and a book by Winnie Holzman. Its score includes “Defying Gravity”, “Popular”, “For Good” and “The Wizard and I”. The enduring West End production combines large-scale spectacle with a story about prejudice, power, loyalty and the choices that shape how history remembers us.
