Howdy Guys, Connor here!
Tonight we went to an amazing play. This play has been a huge hit on Broadway. So, it has finally come to London. Yes, it is Wicked.
(Yes, that is my shirt.)
Wicked begins with Glinda, the good witch, alerting some locals that The Wicked Witch of The West is dead. (Yes, i know you know she's dead.)
A local then asks Glinda if it's true that she was the witch's friend. Glinda then answers, yes.
Glinda tells them that even from the beginning, Elphaba (the witch's name) was different. She was green, as most of you know. The story truly begins with Elphaba showing up at her school. She arrives there with many other girls and boys, as well as her handicapped sister Nessa. and it is said that she will bunk with a girl named Galinda. Elphaba has a breakout of magic and the headmistress says she will talk with The Wizard about him meeting her.
The two immediately start hating each other. To save time, i'm going to run straight to the more important parts.
A new boy arrives at the school, who Galinda immediately likes, And they decide to hold a dance. Galinda receives an ugly hat in the mail. And gives it to Elphaba, Elphaba gets laughed at at the dance for wearing said hat. At the dance, Galinda notices she kind of likes Elphaba and in their room she teaches her the basics of how to be popular in school like her. They go to class with a goat, who teaches them how The Wizard is stopping animals from teaching at public places. In the next class, Oz's security hauls the teacher away. The teacher who comes in immediately afterward has a baby lion in a cage looking very scared. Elphaba talks with the new boy about saving the lion, the lion is saved and is forever a coward.
