Defying Gravity


Since its opening in 2003, the Broadway show Wicked has been the show to beat. Based loosely on the novel Wicked: The life and Times of the Witches of Oz, which is a novel paralleling Frank Baum’s classic film The Wizard of Oz, the musical Wicked is an uproariously funny, yet deeply thoughtful story. Initially premiering in San Francisco, Wicked created little buzz with its audiences. Critics wondered if the show would make it. The show then traveled to New York for the premiere there. It immediately became a box office smash! Like Elphaba, the show has been defying gravity ever since!
