Wicked is a Broadway musical that reimagines the untold story of the witches of Oz, adapted from Gregory Maguire’s novel with music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz and a book by Winnie Holzman. The production is staged at the Gershwin Theatre in midtown Manhattan and is noted for its large-scale, spectacle-driven staging and memorable songs such as “Defying Gravity” and “Popular.” Since its Broadway premiere, Wicked has become one of contemporary musical theatre’s most widely produced and long-running shows, with productions performed around the world.
