Best Answer

The musical "Wicked" was written in 2003.

Specifically, screenwriter Winnie Holzman (b. 1954) wrote the book for the musical adaptation. Stephen Lawrence Schwartz (b. March 6, 1948) was the composer and lyricist for the musical production. The music and the words were based loosely upon the previously published "Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West" by Gregory Maguire (b. June 9, 1954) in 1995.

In 2003, Stephen Lawrence Schwartz [b. March 6, 1948] composed the music and lyrics to the musical 'Wicked'. The spoken dialogue and the actions were based on the script written in that same year by Winnie Holzman [b. 1954]. Both the musician and the playwright relied upon 'Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West' by Gregory Maguire [b. June 9, 1954], which was published in 1995.
