= Welcome to the //Wicked Wiki//. =

The purpose of this Wiki is to compile further information and links, for students studying //Wicked,// to help them understand the production more fully. If you have any links which you feel may be of use to students, please email me and I will include them.

//Wicked - The Untold Stories of the Witches of Oz// opened its Australian season in Melbourne on July 12, 2008 at the Regent Theatre.

It has been included as one of the prescribed plays for the 2008 VCE Theatre Studies, Unit 4. Excellent curriculum support material has been produced and is available to teachers from the [|Australian Wicked website].

Another //Wicked// Study Guide is available at [|Stephen Schwarz Musicals].

//Wicked - The Grimmerie//, a book written by David Cote, is another excellent resource, giving much background information to the musical. Schwartz discusses what he was trying to convey through music and song in one chapter. Eugene Lee discusses his set design inspiration and the photos and illustrations give real insight into how the set works. Sound and lighting are discussed and Susan Hilferty discusses her ideas for the costuming of the show. Photos and sketches are included. Makeup, wigs and choreography are also explored.

The book is available in our school library, and is a very worthwhile addition to either your school library, or your home library.
