Wicked: Part I + Musicals

Wicked: Part I + Musicals

Based on the famed musical that tells the story of Glinda and Elphaba (the Good Witch of the North, and the Wicked Witch of the West respectively) in the Land of Oz, Wicked: Part I is a much-anticipated movie, not least because of the musical firepower in its cast and the credentials of its director Jon M. Chu. We kick things off by reviewing the film, and whether we’re looking forward to Part II, before then discussing the best and worst of musicals. And finally, we close things off with a deep dive into the music of Wicked, written by Stephen Schwartz.
