How long has she lived when Elphaba dies?

In the musical 'Wicked', Elphaba is a freshman in college. We therefore assume she is around 18. But, she is three years older than her sister, Nessarose. It is both their first year at college, so she could be around twenty-one, or Nessa could go to college early at fifteen or sixteen, meaning Elphaba is eighteen or nineteen.However, in the second act, we see it is much later after she had 'Defied Gravity' and turned against the Wizard. This could be days, months, or even years afterwards.

What part does the Wicked Witch of the West play in 'Wicked'?

Answer #1 If you mean the Broadway musical, it is about how Glinda and the Wicked Witch were friends back in school. It has very good songs. Answer #2 The book 'Wicked' and the play of the same name serve as a prequel to 'The Wizard of Oz'. For there's very little that we know about the Witch from either the original 1900 book edition or the beloved 1939 film version. For example, we know that she is the hated ruler of the Yellow Winkie Country of the West. We know that she wants the Slippers of the Wicked Witch of the East. And we know that the Wizard of Oz wants both witches dead. So the book and the play give ElphabaThropp, who is the Wicked Witch of the West, a chance to tell her side of the story. As a result, readers of the book and viewers of the play learn about the circumstances of her birth, education, family life, love interests, and passionate causes. There are differences between the book and the stage versions. The book is less sympathetic to Elphaba as sister to Nessarose, the Wicked Witch of the East and her father's favorite; and as the green-skinned outsider to 'decent' society. The play is more appealing, with its more sympathetic presentation and with its most appealing music score.
