Theater critic David Cote wrote a book about the making of the musical 'Wicked'. The book's title is 'Wicked: The Grimmerie, A Behind-the-Scenes Look at the Hit Broadway Musical'. It was published in October 2005 by Hyperion. It's 192 pages in length. The book is co-authored with photographer Joan Marcus and 'Wicked' creators Winnie Holzman [b. 1954] and Stephen Lawrence Schwartz [b. March 6, 1948].
Winnie Holzman wrote the book for the musical Wicked.

The Grimmerie
The Grimmerie
There is no film of wicked but there is a book and musical. i think people are thinking of making a movie though
Wicked is a musical as well as a book. Both the musical and book include drama.
Stephen Lawrence Schwartz (b. March 6, 1948) is responsible for the music and lyrics, and Winnie Holzman (b. 1954) is responsible for the text, to the musical "Wicked."Specifically, Holzman's text is based on the book "Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West." In fact, her script is an adaptation of the prequel by Gregory Maquire (b. June 9, 1954) to "The Wizard of Oz." The composer, the scriptwriter and the writer worked closely together to come up with an award-winning musical.
Gregory Maguire (b. June 9, 1954) published the book "Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West" in 1995. Screenwriter Winnie Holzman (b. 1954) wrote the book for the musical adaptation "Wicked" in 2003. Stephen Lawrence Schwartz (b. March 6, 1948) was the composer and lyricist for the musical production.
Well, Gregory Maguire wrote the original book that inspired the musical. Winnie Holzman wrote the musical's book, and Stephen Schwartz wrote the music. Marc Platt produced the production, and Universal Pictures owns the copyright. Those are the main "creators", I guess.
You can read the novel the musical was based on Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West. But be warned that the book is very different to the musical, with dark themes and adult content.
The book 'Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West' came out in 1995. 'Wicked: the musical' (only the best musical ever) came out in 2003.
Nobody "Discovered" it. Stephen Schwartz and Winnie Holzman wrote it, and Gregory Maguire wrote the book. It previewed in San Francisco, and moved up to Broadway.
