Hilferty\u2019s design joined pieces from the musicals Rent, Hello Dolly!, The King and I, Cats and The Lion King in the museum\u2019s permanent entertainment collections. The dress, hat and broom that are featured in the current \u201cAmerican Stories\u201d exhibit were originally made and worn on Broadway by actress Mandy Gonzalez. To commemorate the occasion, Broadway cast members Donna Vivino and Tiffany Haas sang selections from the show. In the photo above, Hilferty is joined by the acting director of the museum, Marc Pachter, and a sketch of the costume.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div align=\"center\"><div id=\"attachment_1992\" style=\"width: 403px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wickedthemusicalticketsonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Smithsonian\u2019s-National-Museum-of-American-History-Wicked.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1992\" src=\"http:\/\/www.wickedthemusicalticketsonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Smithsonian\u2019s-National-Museum-of-American-History-Wicked.jpg\" alt=\"Smithsonian\u2019s National Museum of American History - Wicked\" title=\"Smithsonian\u2019s National Museum of American History - Wicked\" width=\"393\" height=\"295\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1992\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.wickedthemusicalticketsonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Smithsonian\u2019s-National-Museum-of-American-History-Wicked.jpg 393w, http:\/\/www.wickedthemusicalticketsonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Smithsonian\u2019s-National-Museum-of-American-History-Wicked-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 393px) 100vw, 393px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1992\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo provided by Smithsonian\u2019s National Museum of American History<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<p>Read the news {Via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.broadway.com\/buzz\/166210\/the-smithsonian-gets-wicked-as-iconic-elphaba-costume-goes-on-display\/\" target=\"_blank\">BROADWAY.COM<\/a>}<\/p>\n<p>Wacth Wicked Musical live on stage at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wickedthemusicalticketsonline.com\/wicked-gershwin-theatre.html\">Gershwin Theatre<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By BROADWAY.COM The blockbuster Broadway musical Wicked celebrated another landmark on December 17 when Tony winner Susan Hilferty\u2019s gorgeous Elphaba costume was inducted into the Smithsonian\u2019s National Museum of American History.
