Elphaba, Glinda, Fiyero, Boq, and the whole gang are back to finish the story of Wicked: For Good and reveal the true tale of Oz. That’s right, after a year of waiting, part two of the Wicked movies is hitting theaters November 21. Finally we’ll get to see what becomes of Elphaba as she flees Oz as well as what the rest of the crew get up to in her absence. To celebrate their return, we’re mixing up a magical cocktail that stuns in presentation and wows with its flavor. Who could resist that stunning purple Empress 1908 Gin?
What is Wicked: For Good About?
Wicked: For Good takes us into the second half of the musical Wicked where the town has turned on Elphaba, claiming her as a wicked witch. While Elphaba runs away to unknown lands, Glinda only grows her powers and popularity as she joins on to the palace in Emerald City. With an angry mob growing quickly behind her, we’ll see how Elphaba repairs her friendship and what the conclusion of her relationship with Fiyero holds.
