You may have seen the legendary movie “The Wizard

of Oz,” but what if that wasn’t the real story? Stephen

Schwartz created Wicked, the 2003 Broadway show based

on the book Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked

Witch of the West. It tells the story of Oz through song

and dance from the unusual viewpoints of the “good” and

“bad” witches. Like the book on which it’s based, Wicked

poses interesting questions about what is good and what

is bad. It may be a recent hit, but it is already surpassing

many box offi ce records.
