Ever wonder what exactly the Wicked Witch of the West’s story really is? Why is she so angry, and how did she get this way? What’s her beef with Glenda? If you’ve ever pondered these questions, we have a show for you! The musical, Wicked, is coming to the Fabulous Fox Theatre in February.
A Wicked Beginning
Wicked is based on the book, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, written by Gregory Maguire in 1995. It is an alternate story of the famous Wizard of Oz, told by the witches of Oz. The Broadway adaption premiered in 2003 at the Gershwin Theatre, and quickly became a hit.
The musical has won three Tony awards and six Drama Desk Awards. Wicked is the 11th longest running Broadway show of all time.
