Step into the spectacular world of Oz with Jon M. Chu’s spellbinding musical fantasy, Wicked (2024). Discover the untold story of the witches of Oz and the unlikely friendship between Elphaba, a misunderstood young woman with extraordinary emerald-green skin, and Glinda, a popular, ambitious young woman destined for greatness.
