Best Answer

The musical 'Wicked' is based on the novel 'Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West' by Gregory Maguire [b. June 9, 1954]. Many of its characters are drawn from the original 1900 book edition by Lyman Frank Baum [May 15, 1856-May 6, 1919], and the beloved 1939 film version, of 'The Wizard of Oz'.
