No specific time period is given in "Wicked."
Specifically, the musical is based upon the novel "Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West" by author Gregory Maguire (b. June 9, 1954) and the American fairy tale "The Wizard of Oz" by Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 - May 6, 1919). No time period is mentioned in either one of these publications. But Maguire's novel is intended as a prequel to Baum's story, and the illustrations in Baum's book have a distinctly 19th-century flair to them.
