Wicked is not just a musical, it is a phenomenon.
Every week 15,000 people pack New York's Gershwin Theatre
to see the show. The most successful musical on Broadway in
2004, Wicked is based on the bestselling novel of
the same name by Gregory Maguire. It tells the story of
Elphaba, the headstrong Wicked Witch of the West, and
Glinda, the good witch, growing up in the Land of Oz. The
show has cast a spell on fans, many of whom return for
second and third viewings. In 2005, the show begins an extensive tour across the
United States and Canada, hitting major cities such as
Toronto, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Washington,
D.C., and many more.This beautifully packaged, whimsical
keepsake is designed to resemble the Grimmerie, an ancient
book of spells that Elphaba uses in the show. Wicked: The Grimmerie offers fans a behind-the-
curtains peek at the musical, profiles of the cast and
creative team, and inside stories, with full-color
photographs throughout. Some of the irresistible special
features include an "Ozian" glossary, spells, an
illustrated family tree, and a step-by-step look at how
Elphaba gets green before each show-everything fans need to
relive the Broadway experience day after day.
