What is Wicked?
"Wicked" is a Broadway musical, based off of a book, it's about what happened before and during the events of the movie "The Wizard of Oz". It is about how a girl named Elphab…a became wicked when she is ostracized by all of her school peers. But her world is changed forever when the most popular girl in their school, Glinda (previously known as Galinda), is forced to share a room with her. Glinda tries to teach Elphaba how to be popular like her, but just barely succeeds.Nessa, Elphaba's younger sister, seems to be their father's favorite, so Elphaba holds a small yet unnoticeable grudge against her. This musical comedy shows how two very different people can become the best of friends, and how the never-ending war of love can help add to the chaos in-between it all. It is an award-winning musical that is most popular in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles, but also has small tours, such as Charlotte, NC. This musical includes many songs such as "Defying Gravity", "I'm Not That Girl", "Popular", and "No Good Deed". As far as inappropriate content for children, at the beginning of the musical while explaining how Elphaba was born green, it shows a man feeding Elphaba's mother green "liquor", then the verse stating, "have another little swallow little lady, and follow me down." Of course there is magic and witches involed, but other than that inappropriate content is rare. www.wickedthemusical.com :-) (MORE)
