Wicked is based upon the novel by Gregory Maguire. It tells  the  story of the witches you were first introduced to in the   Wizard of  Oz. It traces the origins of the witches in a unique  way that  truly  allows the audience to get to know them and  understand them on a more   personal level. The audience follows the  friendship of the witches and  watches  them step into their destiny  as the production progresses.
