See the most swankified show in town! The *Wicked* musical has been defying gravity on Broadway for 20 years and counting — so come see why it's so popular! *Wicked* tickets are on sale now, so get great prices on *Wicked* seats in NYC on TodayTix. 

*Wicked* is a musical and Broadway sensation that looks at what happened in the Land of Oz, but from a different angle. The show's protagonist is Elphaba — a character you might know best as the Wicked Witch of the West. *Wicked* tells the story of how she got that title and how she was once roommates and best friends with Glinda the Good Witch. Ultimately, the musical also questions whether Elphaba is truly wicked at all.

With a thrilling score that includes the hits “Defying Gravity,” “Popular” and “For Good,” *Wicked* on Broadway has been hailed by The New York Times as “the defining musical of the decade.” The show has gone on to perform all over the world and is Broadway's fifth-longest-running show. Time Magazine cheers *Wicked* on Broadway, too: “If every musical had the brain, heart, and courage of *Wicked*, Broadway really would be a magical place.”

## What to watch for

- *Wicked* composer Stephen Schwartz asked his daughter for help writing the lyrics to “For Good.” He asked her what she would say if she could never see her best friend again, and the song’s lyrics are a version of what his daughter told him.
- The Wicked Witch of the West, also known as Elphaba, gets her name in the musical from combining the phonetic sounds of *The Wizard of Oz* novelist L. Frank Baum's initials: L.F.B.
- Did you know that Elphaba flies in *Wicked*? When Elphaba soars above the skies at the end of Act 1, she’s not on a wire. The actress stands on a small platform, and when it rises, it looks like her dress is expanding infinitely.
- Listen carefully to the first few notes of what Stephen Schwartz calls the “Unlimited Theme” — it appears in “The Wizard and I” and “For Good.” The first seven notes as Elphaba sings “I’m limited…” are the same as “Somewhere Over the Rainbow" from *The Wizard of Oz*.
- *Wicked* is based most directly on the 1995 book *Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West*. The musical is also set to be adapted into a film starring Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba and Ariana Grande as Glinda!
