Wicked, the Musical was originally produced by Universal Studios, under the producers Marc Platt and David Stone, music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz and libretto by Winnie Holzman, based on the first novel by Gregory Maguire in the series The Wicked Years, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, released in 1995. The soundtrack, composed by Stephen Schwartz, includes unforgettable songs that have become iconic hits, such as Defying Gravity, Popular or For Good.
Having been acclaimed by more than 60 million spectators worldwide, this super production is coming to Spain thanks to the SOM PRODUCE production company, directed and adapted by David Serrano, to offer an unforgettable experience that will make you laugh, cry and question what “good” or “wicked” really mean.
Based on the successful novel by Gregory Maguire, it tells the story of two young witches whose lives are destined to change forever. Elphaba, the future Wicked Witch of the West is a young girl with emerald green skin who has a lot of talent, but is misunderstood and rejected by society. On the other hand, Glinda, the future Good Witch of the North, is beautiful, ambitious and popular. In spite of their differences and the rivalry that emerges between them, they form an unlikely and deep friendship, but their paths go different ways due to the pressure of a world that does not tolerate difference, along with the decisions that will mark their destiny.
