Description

Award-winning podcaster, Vedant Akhauri, reviews Wicked: For Good, the highly-anticipated second installment of the two-part adaptation of the iconic musical, staring the magnetic duo of Ariana Grande as Glinda and Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba/The Wicked Witch of the West.

While acknowledging the production's technical brilliance and the outstanding talent of its leads, this episode delves into the inherent flaws from its source material that make it a mixed bag in terms of plotting, pacing, and its incorporation of Dorothy's world from The Wizard of Oz.

This episode serves as a guide for listeners to gauge their anticipation for Wicked: For Good and includes a strong recommendation to re-watch the first movie before viewing the sequel.
