Wicked is about how the two witches of Oz know each other. The musical is entirely different, and lighter, than the book. In the musical, the two witches are forced to be roommates at school. They initially hate each other, but grow to become best friends. They go to meet the Wizard, but they find out he's not who they thought he was. Elphaba (the Wicked Witch) turns against the wizard because of what he's doing to Animals.
The second act is about what the girls become - Galinda becomes Glinda the good and Elphie the "Wicked" witch. There's a sub plot about them liking the same guy and about who he ends up choosing, but I won't give that away. AND you find out why Elphaba is so powerful.
The plot kinda sounds dumb just reading it (I thought so, too at first), but it is really a magical experience. I would recommed it for anyone! The story is about these two women growing up and the real depths of their friendship.

The life of the Wicked Witch of the West, it basically explains why the Witch became Wicked, why she hates water and why she is from the West. It is funny in some parts and sad in others, you kinda begin to understand that she wasn't as wicked and take her side for a change.

I haven't seen the musical but I'm reading the book and my friend has seen the musical. It shows how Galinda is evil and Elphaba and Nessa-Rose, the wicked witches, are good. It's a really good book and my friend is in love with the musical.

It is about the two wicked witches of Oz before Dorothy 'dropped' in. They fight and sing about it. Go to the Wicked website, Wickedthemusical.com
