Note of importance: In both the Wicked the Musical and the book Wicked, Elphaba is the Wicked Witch of the West's name, named after the initials of Lyman Frank Baum, who wrote the Wizard of Oz.
However, Wicked is like the backstory about everything in the world of the Wizard of Oz. It answers many of your questions about the Wizard of Oz book. Why was the Wicked Witch of the West so wicked?
