Witch Hunt

Dedicated E-mail: Wicked

Remember your friend in high school who all the girls thought was always giving them a dirty look — until they found out she had a facial twitch?

It’s tough being misunderstood, and no one knows that better than Elphaba, a.k.a. the Wicked Witch of the West.

In the spellbinding musical Wicked, Elphaba, the green-skinned, book-smart, fiery coed, is assigned to room with the beautiful, popular, bubbly blonde Glinda (yep, the Good Witch) — long before Dorothy ever dropped in.

Wicked is the story of how these unlikely friends end up as the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch. See the Tony and Grammy award-winning musical that the Los Angeles Times calls “the phenomenon that keeps growing,” now at The Pantages Theatre.

DailyCandy readers can enjoy Wicked on a weeknight in January and February with a 50 percent discount on orchestra seats by entering code 1WINTER.*
