Wicked (English)

WICKED is the story of friendship. In the land of Oz, Elphaba Thropp (Cynthia Erivo) lives in Munchkinland with her father, Governor Thropp (Andy Nyman) and paraplegic sister Nessarose (Marissa Bode). Elphaba’s mother died while giving birth to Nessarose. Elphaba has green skin and hence, her father detests her and she also finds it difficult to adjust socially. She realizes that she has certain magical powers. Nessarose gets admission in the prestigious University of Shiz. Elphaba goes to drop her sister to the university where she bumps into Glinda Upland (Ariana Grande), a popular young woman who wants to be in the good books of Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh), the Dean of Sorcery at Shiz University. But Madame Morrible, instead, sets her eyes on Elphaba especially when the latter accidentally performs magic. The Dean asks Elphaba to secure an admission in Shiz and as luck would have it, her roommate is Glinda. Both are as different as chalk and cheese. Meanwhile, strange developments happen at the University and in Oz. The animals, who could talk, are being forced to go silent and leave their professor jobs. Elphaba decides to help. What happens next forms the rest of the film.
