Wicked new blog!!!

Hey Bloggers!!!

I'm back!!! I'm sorry I haven't blogged in a while. I've been SO busy!!!

One of the things I've been busy with is seeing the musical...WICKED!!
Wicked is the prequel to the Wizard of Oz.
I've decieded to write a musical overview!!

Elphaba Thropp has been enrolled into Shiz University in Oz to take care of her handicapped sister, Nessarose. Elphaba isn't like any Shiz student. Here are the two reasons:
1. Strange, magical things happen when she's angry
2. Her skin is GREEN
Her room-mate is Galinda (Yes,with a "GA") Upland and they loathe each other the moment they meet.
Teacher Madame Morrible wintnessess Elphaba when she is angry and tells her those powers could be useful alongside the Wizard of Oz, someone Elphaba has always wanted to meet. During a class, Elphaba finds out from teacher Dr. Dillamond, who is a talking goat, that something bad is happening to the animals in Oz and she wants to tell the wizard. Later, Fiyero Tiggular shows up and asks Galinda to a dance he is hosting. Boq, a munchkin, wants at least one dance with Galinda. Galinda instead suggests Nessarose to him in order to wiggle her way out of dancing with him. Later, she gets a horrid black, pointed hat and gives it to Elphaba. Elphba takes the gesture as an act of kindness and insitsts Madame Morrible let her in the sorcery class Elphaba is being given, which is the class Galinda wanted to go to. At the dance, Elphaba starts dancing without music and embaresses herself, but pretends she doesn't notice. Galinda feels bad for her and does the same dance. They soon become friends. Later, Dr. Dillamond is fired because he is a talking goat. The new teacher has a lion cub in a cage, which upsets Elphaba, because she thinks it should be free in the wild. Because of her powers, everyone breaks out into dance-everyone but Elphaba and Fiyero. The two go out and set the cub free. Elphaba falls in love with Fiyero, but knows about Galinda and Fiyero. Elphaba later finds out that she is going to meet the wizard. At the train station when Elphaba is about to leave, Galinda notices that something is going on between  Elphaba and Fiyero and randomly changes her name to Glinda (without a "GA")as a gesture to honor the firing of Dr. Dillamond. Elphaba decides to take Glinda with her. Madame Morrible is there with the Wizard. The Wizard tells Elphaba to read out of  a spellbook called "The Grimmerie". The spell causes the Wizard's monkey servent,Chistory, pain by giving it wings. They find out the only reason the Wizard wanted to meet Elphaba was so she could cast the spell and that the Wizard is a phony. Elphaba defies the wizard by running to tell others, but Glinda is too scared to join her. Madame Morrible tells everyone to believe noting Elphaba says and that Elphaba is a "Wicked Witch". Find out what happens when one is named good and the other is named wicked.
