Wicked
Show Synopsis
Wicked is one of Broadway's hottest tickets. Wicked the Broadway musical is based on Gregory Maguires' ingenious best-seller about Oz before Dorothy arrived. Wicked flips good and evil by telling the story of two young woman who become roommates at sorcery school, the beautifully ambitious Galinda Upland and the green, misunderstood Elphaba Thropp. Their friendship faces challenges both internal and external as the two young women grow up to become Gilinda the Good Witch and the Wicked Witch of The West. Wicked has a uniquely fresh take on friendship and rivalry, and may be the most rewarding family-friendly ticket on Broadway.
