Wicked, the Musical is honestly one of the best musical's I have ever been to. Okay - so to tell the truth - I don't go to a lot of musicals - but this was still on the top of my list.

This play is based on the book "Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West" by
by Gregory Maguire. I had bought the book before the play and never got around to reading it. But now I want to go back and read it!
It tells the story of the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda, the Good Witch of the North as young adults in college as well as other characters from the story. The characters are well thought out and it does a great job at pulling together portions of the Wizard of Oz story. It is a great twist on a classic story! I highly recommend checking it out if you get the chance!
I went to the play at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis, MN.
