When the guard went to kill Ferraro, Elphaba knew they were going to kill him so she did a spell so that he would never die, even though the guards killed him, he never died and became the scarecrow.

Is Fiyero the Scarecrow in The Wizard of Oz?

No. The Scarecrow is only a scarecrow. In the book Wicked, Elphaba believes her lover Fiyero has disguised himself as a scarecrow until she sees him empty the straw from his clothing. In the play Wicked, however, Fiyero does become the Scarecrow, but this is the only version where he is anything other than a stuffed old suit.


Why did Elphaba or The Wicked Witch of the West from Wicked set fire to Fiyero or Scarecrow in Wizard of Oz?

The play takes certain liberties with the source material. The book 'Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West' is more closely paired with the movie 'The Wizard of Oz' than the musical is. In the musical 'Wicked' Fiyero becomes the Scarecrow when Elphaba cast a spell for him to never die. In the book, Fiyero does not become the Scarecrow. I the movie, the Scarecrow has no connection to the witch prior to his travels with Dorothy.

What is the Broadway show Wicked about?

Well Wicked is sort of about wat happend in oz before Dorothy and toto, ect. It includes characters, most of them might be familure to you, such as the wicked witch of the west and G(a)linda and a few others, but some characters are new. -x-x-x-x-x- Wicked is the story of the Wicked Witch of the West and her friendship with G(a)linda the Good. It's about how she came to be "wicked" and why she is green, about her frienship and love, and tells how the tinman got turned to tin, why the scarecrow became a scarecrow, and why the lion is cowardly. The story show characters in a different light than the Wizard of Oz does, showing Elphaba(the wicked witch of the west) as more of a protaganist and the Wizard of Oz as more of an antagonist.
