The Broadway Across America production features a story based on the novel from Gregory McGuire. Wicked centers on the friendship of two witches, one who is green, intelligent, and misunderstood and one who is popular and motivated. One would eventually become Glinda the Good Witch while the other would become the Wicked Witch of the West.
Stephen Schwartz wrote the music and lyrics for Wicked while Joe Mantella directed the production.
