The award-winning Broadway show, Wicked returns for the second half of its whimsical musical, Wicked: For Good.
In Part 2, the now demonized Elphaba known as the Wicked Witch of the West has been exiled from Oz and is desperately fighting for the freedom of silenced animals and trying to expose the lies of The Wizard. While Glinda has been appointed as “The Good Witch” and a comfort to Oz, she is internally struggling, missing Elphaba, her best friend and being part of a charade to villainize her.

There’s a beautiful message about friendship, love, acceptance, and being cautious of false heroes.
