In both the musical and the novel, the key characters are Elphaba, Glinda, Madame Morrible and the Wizard of Oz. But the author is not under the time constraint that a stage director is. Despite the resulting difference in presentation, fiction and theater come together to cover the same themes in respectively effective and memorable ways.
