Broadway's Wicked | Talks at Google
Laurel Harris and Alexandra Socha, who play Elphaba and Glinda in Broadway’s Wicked, joined us to celebrate 20 years of the hit musical.
Wicked looks at what happened in the land of Oz…but from a different angle. Long before Dorothy arrives, there is a young woman, born with emerald-green skin – smart, fiery, misunderstood and possessing an extraordinary talent. When she meets a bubbly blonde who is exceptionally popular, their initial rivalry turns into the unlikeliest of friendships – until the world decides to call one “Good” and the other “Wicked.”
