Prose literature in the form of a novel is the genre of the book version of 'Wicked'. Theater in the form of musical drama is the genre of the stage version of 'Wicked'. In the event of a movie version, the genre most likely will be drama or musical drama.
Wicked is a musical as well as a book. Both the musical and book include drama.
You can read the novel the musical was based on Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West. But be warned that the book is very different to the musical, with dark themes and adult content.

There is scedueled to be a "Wicked" movie in a year or 2 (according to IMDB), but it will be based on the musical that is based on the book, not the book itself. It will be good either way though!!! :)
