The show follows the story written by Gregory Maguire, of two classmates (and roommates) who end up becoming the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch in the film and story by L. Frank Baum, “The Wizard of Oz.” The play itself has won 26 major awards including three TOny Awards and a Grammy, and even earned the original Elphaba (the Wicked Witch of the West) a Tony Award for Best Actress the year it premiere (Idina Menzel). “Wicked has every piece of the Great American Musical, and even defines the genre in the current evolution. It is although thrillifying,” wrote the Philadelphia Inquirer. “If every musical had the brain, the heart and the courage of ‘Wicked,’ Broadway really would be a magical place,” said Time Magazine. “Remember the last time an original Broadway musical made you laugh, cry and think – in the right places and for the right reasons? ‘Wicked’ is the most complete, and completely satisfying, new musical I’ve come across in a long time. It’s a triumph!” wrote USA Today.
