Wicked

No, Elphaba wasn't in love with the Wizard. She took advantage of an opportunity to spend some time away from Shiz University. Once in the Emerald City, she became aware of unlikeable aspects of the Wizard's personality. For example, he had her give caged monkeys the ability to fly. Elphaba learned after her spell worked that the Wizard was planning to use them as spies. In contrast, Elphaba was a passionate advocate of animal rights and well-being.

If you are referring to the Broadway show Wicked and are inquiring about the actress that originated the role of Galinda/Glinda, her name is Kristin Chenowith.

The running time for wWicked the Musical is about 2 hours and 45 mins. The first act is an hour and a half, the second act is 1 hour. There is a 15 min intermittion inbetween.

Her passionate nature is Elphaba Thropp's weakness. She feels strongly for or against people and things. It leads her to sympathize with the vulnerable and those in need of help. But at the same time, it leads her to be uncompromising and rigid in what she thinks and feels and how she expresses those words and feelings.

That covers the main characters

The first official performance of Oklahoma! was at the St. James Theater, at 246 W. 44th St in New York City, on March 31, 1943. However, like most Broadway musicals of that era, Oklahoma! had out-of-town tryouts for revisions and refinement. Therefore, technically, the first public performance was in New Haven, Conn. in March, 1943, under the working title Away We Go!

This line is delivered by the second witch in Act 4, scene 1 of MacBeth. "By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes. Open, locks, Whoever knocks". The witches are calling MacBeth wicked because he has already murdered king Duncan.

'Wicked' first appeared in book form under the title 'Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West'. It was written and published in 1995 by author Gregory Maguire [b. June 9, 1954]. It subsequently was adapted in musical form to the stage. Stephen Lawrence Schwartz [b. March 6, 1948] was responsible for the music, Winnie Holzman [b. 1954] for the text. The stage version was written and published in 2003.

It hasn't ended yet. It's still playing in NYC.

In the musical he is simply known as The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.

It is still running. There were 4,628 performances as of last night. There are usually six performances a week with extra shows on holidays.

No, Elphaba Thropp isn't presented as a good person in either the original 1900 book edition or the beloved 1939 film version of 'The Wizard of Oz'. In both the book and the movie, she's identified just as the 'Wicked Witch of the West'. It's only with the novel 'Wicked' of 1995 and the musical 'Wicked' of 2003 that she's given the name of 'Elphaba Thropp', and a chance to defend her wicked reputation as accurate or not.

The Wicked Witch of the West ( Elphaba ) and Glinda ( or Galinda ) the Good Witch of the North met for the first time at Shiz University, where they roomed together. If you want more details, since I don't feel like explaining the Wicked plot, look up the question, " What is the plot of wicked the musical? " Also, I would recommend reading the book by Gregory Magiure, but it's COMPLETELY different than the musical. Hope I helped!

She put a cap on her head, and cast a spell. The Wicked Witch had a golden cap that was covered with diamonds and rubies. She needed to put it on her head, to call the winged monkeys. For they owed her three wishes. She had used up the first in establishing her rule as the Wicked Witch of the West. She had used up the second in driving back the Wizard of Oz. She hadn't planned on using up her third wish, in such a way. But she was desperate. Dorothy, Toto, the Tin Woodman, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion were all on her land. She had called forth her wolves, crows, black bees, and enslaved Winkies. All had been routed. With the cap on her head, she first stood on her left foot, and said, "Ep-pe, pep-pe, kak-ke." Then she stood on her right foot, and said, "Hil-lo, hol-lo, hel-lo." And then she stood on both feet, and said, "Ziz-zy, zuz-zy, zik." The winged monkeys appeared, took their orders, and carried them out with frightening efficiency. The Tin Woodman was dropped, and broken, on rocks. The Scarecrow was de-strawed. His boots, clothes, and hat were bundled up, and placed on the topmost branch of a tree. The Cowardly Lion was roped, and imprisoned within a high iron fence. For the Witch intended to harness him, for hard work. The only trespassers for whom things didn't go as planned were Dorothy and Toto. For the winged monkeys recognized the power of good as stronger than that of evil. And they saw the mark of the protective kiss of the Good Witch of the North on Dorothy's forehead. So they were most respectful in carrying her and Toto to the Witch's castle, and depositing them at the doorstep.

The main characters are Billy,Tony,Michael,Jackie,ms Wilkinson,

Elphaba (A.K.A the wicked witch of the west) is green due to her mother drinking something called green elixer when she was pregnangt or got impregnated with elphaba. This then results to Elphaba's green skin.

The actors playing the flying monkeys were attached by small cables to a system of pulleys, which gave the impression of flight.

Broadly, the Oz novels of L. Frank Baum ( it is not J. Frank Baum as some have incorrectly recorded. the Witch character is expanded into a feature character rather than an expendable villainess. methinks this occult garbage is dross. Gregory Maguire wrote 'Wicked - The Life and Times of The Wicked Witch of the West'. This book is loosly based on 'The Wizard of Oz'.

Wicked is set in the Land of Oz. However, its is specifically set in the Munchkinland, The Vinkus and The Emerald City.
